A/N: This is my first Cato/Katniss story so it might not be that good. Reviews and CONSTRUCTIVE criticism is greatly appreciated. I hope you all enjoy it, flaws and all. This chapter is kind of short, but I'll be trying to make them longer after this one! Anyway, without further ado, Chapter One of Hate/Love Relationship!

Chapter One:

I am a ruthless killer. I've been training since I was twelve to volunteer for the games. I'm a natural with a sword and good with knives and spears. I was ready to kill any other tribute that stood in my way, except my district mate. We already had discussed that when it got to the top four, we would separate and focus on only killing. That changed when both people from a district could win and again when she was killed. She was my only real friend and the male from Eleven killed her. I was going to kill him and every other person that stood in my way of going home. Her death had to be avenged.

It was me, the male from Twelve and Fire Girl. I had him in a choke hold, ready to snap his neck. She could win for all I cared, I just couldn't let the "star-crossed lovers" go home together. I didn't want to kill her, but I had to kill him. It was the only way to bring pride to my district.

"PEETA," she screamed as I snapped his neck and tossed him over the side of the Cornucopia.

"Now it's just you and me," I said falling to my knees.

She ran over and I braced myself for getting mauled by the mutts. I heard a scream from Peeta, as she called him so I assumed that was his name, and all went quiet. I looked over the side and saw him laying there with an arrow through his head. I looked back at Fire Girl and saw she used her last arrow to end his suffering.

"Just kill me," she said looking in my eyes. "Just end it."

I tried to get up, but suddenly felt dizzy and everything went black. When I woke up, everything was bright, too bright if you ask me. My eyes finally adjusted and I could tell I was in a hospital. I went to run a hand through my hair and found I was strapped down. I started to struggle until Brutus walked in.

"That was really stupid kid," he yelled. "Now, if you two don't act in love. Snow will kill anyone you care about because the districts are going wild. Good luck with the new love of your life."

I was about to say something, when he walked out the door. Lucky me. I was now dating the girl I was about to kill until I blacked out. There was no way I was going to be able to love her, act or not!

"She's willing to do it," said the mentor from Twelve, Haymitch Abernathy.

"Why didn't she just kill me," I asked him. "I mean I had a knife on there she could have used."

"After you blacked out, she took a step towards the knife, but collapsed from dehydration," He said sitting next to me.

"Why am I strapped down," I asked, hoping he would know.

"You both are because you both started ripping out your tubes while having nightmares," he said walking to the door. "Treat her right and show her you love her, at least in public."

Great. I was now "in love" with a coal miner's daughter. How wonderful. Just what I had always dreamed of.

"Hey," Fire Girl said.

"You're dressed," I said shocked. I was in a paper hospital gown.

"I got released and now I'm headed up to the twelfth floor to grab my things because we both have to stay on the second floor while we're still here. Once it's done, we'll be going to stay on the new thirteenth floor they're making just for us," she said faking a smile. "And my name is Katniss, which you might want to start using."

"I think I like Fire Girl better," I smirked.

"Well I like brutal murderer better, but in public I'm still calling you by your name, Cato," She said before walking out.

Yay me. Not only do I have to be "in love" with her, I have to share a floor with her. Yay me.
