Hola, so I've wanted to do a Peeta/Cato fic since I got The Hunger Games on dvd for Christmas, now I'm going to write it.
and damn its gonna get hot.
and I'm not going to stick to the books I'm sorry okay. I have a good idea, just stick with me.
By the way, its in Catos POV.
Also, nothing belongs to me except the gist. The characters and everything belong to Suzanne, I'm just borrowing them
Trained to be a Loverboy.
Chapter One- Love at First Sight.
The first time I saw him, I knew. I knew that he was the man I wanted. I would make him mine. He didn't look like much, they never do the boys from district 12, however this one had an edge to him. He was beautiful. The Boy on Fire. The Opening Parade, where all 24 of us are shown to the Capitol, all made up and pretty. It's sick, the Capitol-ites they
eat this shit up like it's cake. In District 2 we're told how to act at the parade, calm and collected, let them know nothing about you until the rating and the interview, thats when you sow your seeds.
During President Snows speech, I got a chance to look at all the other disticts and size them up as it were. Thats when I saw him, he was burning bright, he looked like a diamond. 'I'll have to look for him in training' I thought to myself. Before I knew it, the chariots were moving again and I was subconciously waving at the auidence. Quickly, the burning people were put out and they celebrated, I had to know who he was, or I'd go mad. The next day we were all thrown together to train, and there he was. The tight tops did his toned body justice, he was better looking today then he had looked last night, had probably been eating properly for the first time in his life, I've always felt sorry for the people of the higher districts. Quickly, Clove and I were with the other 'Career Tributes.' Its a stupid nickname
5 of the 6 'Careers' die if not all 6. It's hardly a we formed our alliance with Glimmer and Marvel, two rediculous names if you ask me, but thats District 1. Having trained for this, we all agreed to go to the weapons, thankfully they had a sword
and it was just right, perfect infact, for me. It's almost like the gamemakers knew that that was my speciality, that and my strength, without meaning to brag.
Just like I'd told myself the night before, I looked at Peeta, as the girl Katniss I think her name was had called him. I did a little more then look, I stared. I had to figure out their game plan, so far they were going to the 'survival' stations. The only thing you need to survive is a sword or a bow and some arrows. Not 'knot-tying' thats for people who want to die. They obviously had a death wish. I saw Peeta duck out of another 'survival' station and leave the room. I followed him, of course!
He obviously needed air as I found him outside looking pale. I came up behind him and whispered in his ear 'You might want to tryone of the real training stations.' He, not expecting me, jumped out of his skin, yelling "FUCK!" I simply laughed, and heldout my hand "The Names Cato, nice to meet you, Peeta." He did not look pleased, yet he still took my hand and shook it, his
grip was strong. I liked it, it was warm. Then the handshake stopped and I became cold as ice again. "Nice to meet you Cato,what is it you want exactly?" Peeta asked with suspician in his tone. I just looked at him and said "I want to be your friend, if you
got to know me, you wouldn't hate me." He continued to stare. "Meet me again, later though. After dinner, roof around 8?" I asked, hopefully. He nodded strongly. I turned and walked away, he couldn't see the smile on my face. The rest of the day went past quickly and it finally became 8. I was early to the roof, only by 10 minutes, but I was beaten
by Peeta. I smiled at him and waved. He waved and smiled back at me, and Gods I was gone. Fuck Glimmer or whatever her fucking name was I wanted the tribute from District 12. He started the conversation with a nervous "did you mean it?" I assumed he meant my offer
to be his friend. I just laughed and replied "I never make an offer I don't intend to keep, Friend." He held out his hand to me, again and whispered "okay Cato, I trust you."
