Reunited (Fourth book to the Finnick and Annie series)

Chapter 41

Chapter 41

Finnick Pov.

I walk into the apartment with Mags, everything is chaotic.

"Please don't be mad Nixon, I just, I don't feel a, spark." Kim explains.

"It's okay Kim," he looks over at us.

"Hey... Guys..." I say awkwardly.

"Hey... Finnick..." Nixon mimics me.

"What's going on?" I ask.

"Nothing..." Kim says.

"Really? Nothing? Are you sure?" I ask.

"Kim dumped me!" Nixon fake cries.

"Ohh.. k..." is all I say.

"Just kidding, I understand Kim. It's no big deal," he pauses and then whispers, "I have feelings for someone else now."

"Really?" she asks. He nods. "Who?"

"Annie." he replies. I practically start charging at him. He throws his hands in front of himself, so that he's blocking himself. "Whoa, Finnick, I was kidding!" Everyone, even Mags laughs at me.

"Good," I say in relief and I laugh too. "Speaking of Annie,"

"In her room," Kim tells me.

I knock on her door. "Did Kim dump him yet?" she asks.

"You knew?" I ask.

"Yea, of course I know, she told me before she told him." She says like it's overly obvious.

"Oh," I pause. "Do you know why she dumped him?"

"Give me a second," she runs out the door, asks Kim something and comes back. "Okay I can tell you."

"Hey, we're married Annie you're supposed to tell me everything," I joke.

"Maybe you should take your own advice," she tells me not as playfully.

"Never mind..." I say.

She laughs, "Kim has a crush..."

"On who?" I ask completely interested.

"Xavier," she tells me.

"What?!" I yell.

"Shhh! You're good at keeping secrets, so this should be easy."

"I want to tell so bad,"

"Well don't, or Kim will kill you and me." she tells me.

"Shh, do you hear that?" I ask. She shakes her head no. "Listen."

We keep the door closed and listen.

"Why did you break up with Nixon?" Xavier asks Kim.

"I, kind of like someone else, I guess." she admits.

"Oh, things are getting interesting." I tell Annie and she hits my arm and tells me to be quiet.

"Can I ask who?" he asks.

"Hmmm," she pauses.

"Come on! Tell me," he says.

"Ok... Well... Y.. You." she confesses.

"Really?" he asks, he sounds shocked.

She doesn't say anything but she probably nodded.

"That's kind of, perfect."

"Why?" she asks.

"Because, I dumped my girlfriend back home because I like you too." he tells her.

"Really?" she asks happily.

"Yea, really. Would you want to, go out some-"

She cuts him off, "Yea!"

"Cool, so if Annie and Finnick aren't hogging the roof maybe we could have a picnic up there." he suggests.

"Sure," Kim agrees. We come out of the bedroom.

"That's our spot!" I yell.

They laugh.

"We can let them borrow it, just this one time." Annie tells me and smiles at them.

"Ok," I agree sarcastically.

They run up to the roof to have their first date. They seem to be really good for each other.
