  I lean against the tree as I watch the crashing waves against the shore.

We knew the plan, but now we had to act on it. Guessing on the sun it was around six.

How many days has it been already? Two? There was only us and two other careers left. So a total of eight left in this arena.

I sigh as I close my eyes I begin to speak, "you know if you're trying to sneak up on me you're really bad" I say softly smiling still with my eyes closed I hear Finnick chuckle.

"Damn, here I thought I'd be able to fool you." I open my eyes as he leans against the tree and I turn towards him only being a few inches away from him.

I graze his jump suit with my hand against his chest, "if you're trying to seduce me Miss Grace it's definitely, working" he says winking and I roll my eyes and push his shoulder.

"Am not!" I huff and turn away as he continues to chuckle.

"Don't throw a tantrum now."

Rolling my eyes I turn back to him and look over as Peeta and Katniss chat.

"Finnick I can't kill them. They're like us, a young us. The pure not too broken us that once was" his gaze follows mine to them and he nods.

"We won't. I promise you that" he says looking back at me.

I glance in his sea green eyes and I smile as they twinkle. "You still wanna take this hot mess of a girl as your girlfriend?"

He shakes his head and sighs, "absolutely not, she'll be my wife, the mother to my children." He says stepping forward so no space is left between us.

I get taken back by this. My breath slightly clinched then I remember how to breath as he smirks, he's so proud of how he makes me feel and act.

He caresses my cheek gently as he stares back in my eyes, "I'll love you til my last dying breath Miss Grace- Odair. Let's say we were to get out of these games..would you marry me" he says and I frown a bit looking down.

He knows we can't. Only one comes out alive. Only one gets to face the games outside of the arena this time.

My thoughts race as I look back up at him, "y-yes. You know this but-" he cuts me off with a passionate kiss and pulls me closer from my waist.

His body pressed against mine as I graze my hand up and around his neck.

We hear a cough and we break our kiss away to look at an annoyed Johanna, "god you two make me sick with your love crap, now come on! We need to head to the tree. YOU TWO LOVE BIRDS COME ON" she shouts at Katniss and Peeta as they make their way over.

Finnick groans, "things were just getting heated Joe"

I smack his arm and he raises his hands up in surrender as Johannas voice calls, "and? I'm sure all of Panem would love to see a porno live but we kind of have some tributes to murder." She says and I giggle.

Finnick takes my hand as we make our way up a steepish hill to the biggest tree in the arena. The deadliest.

~

  We get there in the next few hours. Our feet ache already and yet we haven't even started.

Beetee begins to take his string out and Finnick releases my hand and goes to help stringing it around the tree.

"We need to get this string along to the beach quickly" he states as he hands it to Johanna.

"Alright well Katniss and I will go do that" Peetas voice rings out. Everyone knows that will be their way of escaping us.

"No. I need you and Finnick on guard here. The girls will take it down and we'll meet back here in an hour." Beetee says as makes eye contact with all of us.

I glance at Finnick who has worry on his face but he nods, "alright I agree"

"But you don't need both Finnick and I, he's strong enough to take down an army" Peeta says as beetee cuts him off.

"There are two careers, two of you."

"Will there be a problem?" Finnick says as he raises his eyebrow to Peeta.

Peeta sighs as he looks at Katniss and Katniss reassures him it's okay and that she'll see him soon.

I take this opportunity to walk over to Finnick who grabs me into a tight embrace, "you be safe vic. Hell be deadly if needed." He says starring right into my eyes.

I have to stay strong. I'll see him soon right.
"You be safe too Fin, I love you" I whisper and he smiles softly.

"I love you most darling." With that beetee tells us to head out. I take the rear as I only break eye contact with Finnick once in the tree line.

I hope I'll see him again, god I promised I'd keep him safe and leaving I can't do anything. I feel so powerless, hopeless.

Weak.
