It wasn't long until all of us reached the top floor. We all ran as far as we could with a hurt twin stumbling up the stairs. The black liquid soon disappeared and dried.

"We have to get out of here." I informed with the others nodding.
"Yeah, let's go," said Cressida.

She pointed to the twins. "Are you okay?"

The one on the floor slowly nodded and the other twin shook her head. "Y'all go, I'll watch her."

We all ran down the stairs. Me, Clayton, Brook, and the rest of the team. Not long after, we were half a mile away from the building when we heard a huge boom! We all abruptly turned around and witnessed the building fall to ashes. It had exploded, the twins were dead.

I sighed. "Let's keep going."

Before I knew it, we were arriving at another building. Cressida tightened the grip on her machine gun and walked inside with us following.

We kept walking and decided to take a break. All of us sat down.

I sat beside Clayton who sat beside Brook.
"Brooky..." Clayton muttered. "You have to speak to him."

"Fine." Brook snapped, swapping places with her brother.

"Hey..." was all I could say.

"Hey? You want me to talk to you and all you can say is 'hey'?" She shouted.

"You start then." I said. "Tell me why you want to kill me. Why you hate me."

Brooklynn sighed. "I don't hate you. Hate is a strong word. But you tried to kill me."

"You know what? I didn't try to kill you. The Capitol tried to make me kill you. Either way, forgive, forget. You have to learn those steps."

"Fine! I forgive you. I just...I wish everything could go to how it was."

"Maybe it's best if you just stop loving me." I whispered.

"What do you mean, Finnick?" She asked.

"It All Started With you loving me. None of this would have happened if you wouldn't have started loving me." I hesitated before speaking again. "What do you feel? What did I do?" I asked.

Quick a/n. These next few paragraphs I did not originally write. All credit goes to the wonderful TV series of Vampire Diaries.

"You put me in a position." She said. "Where I had to defend you. Again. Where I had to bend my morals...again. Where I had to go against every single thing that I believe in, again. Because I love you!" She shouted.

I shot back quick without thinking of what she said, "then stop loving me!"

She didn't wait either. "I can't!"

She looked away. "I can't..." she said again.

Again? What did she mean 'again'?"

I looked at her once more and stood up, walking away.
