I Could Be What You Had Saved

18

Finnick is eighteen and the Capitol’s darling alongside Aisa. They trade kisses and touches for secrets spilled from plump, unnaturally colorful lips and try not to drown in the venomous words. They attend parties, smile and wink and wave at fans, and they manipulate everyone because they deserve it. Aisa covers herself in jewels and silk as if trying not to let people touch her skin while Finnick shows it however he can.

She comes over on the last day of the trip and he fucks her just the way she wants to. They don’t talk about it. They get back to District 4 and she disappears, surrounds herself with kids, spends her days swimming and drawing sirens in the waves.

It takes him a while to suspect Aisa blames him for becoming a prostitute.
