Alyssa swallowed, with tears filling her dark eyes once again. Nobody had ever made her cry before. Not properly, anyway.
Finn decided not to take offense when Alyssa called him 'little' and 'cute'. He shrugged once again. "
I hope that I do anyway. Being likable- no matter how fake you have to be- could mean the difference between life and death. Though by the sounds of things, you couldn't give a damn either way." Finn knew he wasn't prepared to ally with someone who was careless with their life. After all, he wanted to survive this- or, at least, go down with a fight.
He wasn't sure what to do when her eyes filled with tears. Was he supposed to give her a hug? Or wipe them dry? Or just pretend not to notice? He wasn't sure, but he didn't want to make things worse. So he offered her a tissue from his pocket awkwardly. "
Someone gave it to me at the reaping," He muttered, handing it to her.
