Worlds Away (a Clato fanfic)

Clove: unspoken thoughts

Thresh held me against the side of the cornucopia screaming and demanding to know who killed Rue. In all my life I never knew such fear and anguish "CATO!" I kept screaming over and over again.

I remembered what Cato had said when we planned this all out "Now remember Clove, if you are in trouble just call for me and I'll come." He said with a wide smile. I twisted my lip

"And why would I need to call for you?" I asked a little more bitterly than I wanted.

"Because if you get in trouble I don't want to lose you to district 12." He rests his hand around my neck and presses his forehead against my own "I promise; we'll get out of here alive. You'll see your little sister again, I promise."

I kept screaming for Cato, in the distance I can hear him crash against the underbrush screaming my name. I can feel a small smile spread across my lips but soon it fell, just like I did. The rock slammed against my skull sending me to the ground, I stared up at my hand. I heard Thresh run off as Cato neared closer.

My little sister and I used to run through the old meadow separating us from the fence. Laughing and playing; it was the only moment that I didn't need fear to be happy other than the moments I spend with Cato. I kept replaying that scene in my head as I saw Cato run through the clearing still screaming my name.

"Clove! Who did this to you? Was it twelve?" He was so unaware of the fact life was slipping past me

"Cato, you have to win for me." I barely got out past a whisper.

He shook his head trying not to cry "No, you're going home! I promise Clove you are going to go home!" I had never seen him so frantic. Maybe he did care.

"Please win for my sister." I felt my eyes fading away along with my life.

Cato took my hand "please don't go Clove, don't you leave, Clove" I saw a tear curl in the corner of his eye. "I said call for me if you're in trouble and I'll come help."

My eyes grew heavy but I tried to stay awake "but you didn't" I whispered weakly. Soon this will turn to a one sided conversation, Cato will be screaming at air.

"But I'm here now, Clove." He took my hand and leaned in close "I love you, Clove."

He didn't realize the moment he started to talk I was already gone.


Hi, I read a lot of Clato and Everlark and so I decided to write my own.

ENjoy and may the odds be ever in your favor!
