Opal sat with her legs crossed on a chair as a big screen begins to count down from ten, it had been a day since the whole situation with Finnick and the girl couldn't help but beam at every chance she got. Caesar carried on with his usual jokes while he teased the crowd. Opal spoke very little, often just smiling or laughing at the man's jokes. Eventually, he began to ask questions that require a little more explanation "Now, Opal, we all saw how you and Finnick danced last night, at the Victor party. What can you tell me about that?"

She paused finding the boy's eyes who gave her a simple nod, it was his way of telling her that it was okay to speak about "Well, me and Finnick, have become close since the games first started. He has helped me a lot."

"Well, when you jumped into his arms after the games, I think we all realised what was going on." he speaks placing his hand on his heart before laughing obnoxiously "Now tell me, what was going through your head when Matt strangled you?"

Caesar's question hit a nerve, and Opal felt her heart drop slightly "I suppose I felt a little betrayed, but my survival instinct quickly took over."

"It sure did," he beamed "Have you got anything else to add?"

"I think that's it from me." She answered honestly. Caesar soon sighed off waving his arms for the film crew to stop recording, everyone was laughing and hugging. Opal quickly returned to her room and found there was nothing to take, as she had already been wearing the necklace Finnick gave her along with the ring from the blonde-headed girl. They drove them through the streets in a car with blacked windows, and the train was already waiting for them upon arrival. Opal barely had time to say goodbye to Fergus, Caledonia and Celine, she can't help but feel upset even know she knows she will see them in a few months when she takes her victory tour around the Districts. The train begins to move as they are plunged into night and Opal gets her first night of free sleep since the reaping.
