So I saw the hunger games last night (it was amazing except for some parts but hey you take what you get) and the obvious tension between Cato and Katniss was ridiculous. So here you guys go Catniss (:
Cato's Pov
After President Snow's speech the tributes stepped out of their chariots and we stood in the center looking around waving and smiling towards the crowd. Lover boy was still holding the fire girl's hand tightly in his raising them above his head. The crowd went wild.
" A district couple? " Clove snorted beside me above the roar of the crowd. "That's stupid they know they have to kill each other right?" Clove and I have a sort of understanding between us – we team up with district 1 and 4 then we kill whoever we can get our hands on in the arena until its just the two of us, one of us will bring a victor to district 2 even if it means killing a friend. I looked down at her small but lethal frame.
" They'll be dead before they can take a second step onto the arena " I say darkly. Our mentor Brutus strode over to us after the crowd had died down and led us into another fancy capitol building. Walking up the wide stars he began to talk.
" Those district rats are going to get a hell of a lot more sponsors then you guys are with their whole " buddy buddy " entrance." This did not sit well at all with Clove.
"Are you kidding me? We're district 2 the capitol should be eating out of our hands, I mean we do make their weapons " she spits out bitterly.
" The capitol people are all idiots, living in their perfect little world were nothing is wrong and all is honkey dory." He paused at the top of the stairs deep in thought. " Were they're friends, families and… lovers are safe. " his grip on the railing tightened.
"Change out of those ridiculous costumes and meet in the dinning hall – all the tributes and mentors will be there. " he passed both clove and I briskly.
" What crawled up his ass and died? "
" His wife " I say quietly before I make my way to a changing room set specifically for me.
A pair of black pants, a grey V-neck shirt and black cargo boots were set out for me. I sigh in relief as the familiar feel of cotton slides comfortably on my skin. I turn to leave the room when I notice it, well him. It was I. My reflection in the mirror actually. My stance was firm and my hands were balled up into fist at my sides, the tendons bulging ever so often. My eyes raked up my figure looking for a weakness that could be used against me in the games. When I met my eyes in the mirror I felt the room drop ten degrees. They were so empty, so cold. Focused. I had once told my self when a girl from back at home once made a comment about the shallowness of my blue eyes. I took a deep breath shaking off the memory of the quirky red head and opened the door. At the same moment the fire girl opened hers. She was wearing a loose fitting yellow blouse with black pants, her thick brown hair was out of that ridiculous braided hair style and fell down past her shoulders in soft looking curls. Her grey eyes met mine.
" Hey there Fire girl, how's Lover boy " a smirk tugging on my lips. She pursed her soft looking lips and her eyes raked down my form, looking for any sign of danger.
" Don't worry rat, " I said as I walked closer to her, I leaned down closer to her and the smell of the forest after a heavy rainfall assaulted my senses. My eyes almost rolled back at the euphoric feel of her warm breath against my collar.
"..I'll save you two for last, " I pulled away drunk on her scent " id love to see the look on your pretty little face as I break his neck " My index finger slide down her jaw slowly, lightly almost grazing. My heart was racing I wanted this girl, wanted her on her back screaming my name.
" You see, " she began her voice seemingly breathless." There may be a problem with your little plan." I hummed enjoying our banter.
" Really? What may that be fire girl?" She took a deep breath stepped closer to be and her hand came down to grasp my balls through my pants – tightly, painfully. She smiled knowingly and propped herself up on her tippy toes whispering in my ear.
"Because I'm going to kill you Cato – slowly starting off with what seems to be your favorite body part, " she squeezed me tighter to emphasize her point and I bit back a groan, of pleasure or pain I wouldn't be able to tell you.
" Listen closely 2," she sneered, " I'm going to go home to my family by the end of all this, got it? "
" We'll see about that " I replied. The sound of the door opening made her release my dick and it practically cried in relief, Fire girl has quite the grip.
" Katniss ? " It was lover boy, I scowled as he came up beside her and placed hand on her shoulder.
" Its time to get to the tribute dinner " he said softly. She smiled, a fake one I could tell, and turned away from me and began walking towards the end of the hall. Peeta turned left at the end of the hallway and made his way down the stairs.
" Remember what I said 2 " she said warningly. I smirked and scent her a wink.
" See you dinner sweetheart. "
Maybe these games wont be so bad after all.
