This is my first Hunger Games Cloveniss story ever made. I do NOT own The hunger games series or the characters! Enjoy.
Katniss's POV.
We were pulled by our chariot horses along the road, hearing the screams and cheers from the Capitol people. Then the horses stopped and we looked up and saw President Snow preparing for his speech. Then I looked and saw the District 2 girl. Then before I knew it, she was staring back at me. She also gave me a smirk. I smiled and that's when our horses were moving after his speech was over. Then we met up with Cinna, Haymitch, and Effie.
"That was amazing." Cinna said.
"Oh, we are all everyone's going to be talking about." Effie said. "So brave." Haymitch said. "Thanks, I guess." I simply said. Then I turned around and saw the District 2 girl again. Then I saw the big blonde boy who gave me a death glare. "Katniss?" I didn't paid attention to him until he called my name again. "Katniss!" I quickly turned around. "What are you staring at?" Haymitch asked. I turned around and the District 2 girl disappeared from my sights. Then I spoke. "Nothing...it was nothing." I said. "Alright then...let's go up stairs." He said. Then we took an elevator that took us to floor 12 because that's my district. Then I was wearing my yellow tank top and sat down at the table, eating dinner. When I was done, I went to sleep. But then I couldn't sleep. The thought of the District 2 girl was still in my head. Then I got up and went to the roof to think. I shouldn't be even thinking about her right now. She's a Career and I don't think a Tribute and a Career would mix together like that. I still have some days left before the Hunger Games begin. Then all of a sudden I heard a elevator ding went off. I didn't even bother look to see who it was. Then the footsteps were getting closer. Closer and closer. Until they stopped. I didn't heard anything else after that. Not until I heard its voice.
"Hi." I turned around to see the District 2 girl. "Oh. Hey." I said. "It is okay if I stayed with you for a while?" She asked. I smiled. "Sure. I don't mind." She sat across from me and sighed. Then there was that awkward silence. Then I decided to break the silence.
"My name's Katniss Everdeen." I began. "I know." She replied. "My name's Clove." She said. I kinda liked her name. "That's a beautiful name." I said. She chuckled with a smile. "Thanks." She replied. Then we were staring outside the window, hearing the screams and the cheers from the people. Then Clove spoke.
"Are you hearing this right now?" She asked. "Yeah." I said. "Just listen to them. Screaming and cheering. And for what?" She asked. "All I know is that, they are cheering because of the Hunger Games. That's probably the reason why they're cheering. Why else would they be cheering?" I asked. Then there was another awkward silence. Until she spoke. "That was really brave of you." I turned to her. "For volunteering for your sister like that. You probably must've grown some balls to do something brave like that." She said. Then we both laughed. I didn't know she was funny. No one ever told me she was funny. Not until now.
"So, why are you here?" I asked. She didn't say anything until she spoke. "...I didn't want to be alone." She said. Hearing her saying that made me feel bad for her. "I want to be with someone instead of being alone." She said. Then I spoke. "Yeah...I know what you mean, Clove." I said. Then we were both silent, not saying another word. Then I said something to her that cheered her up. "I'm glad you're here, Clove." I said. Then she looked at me. Then she smiled. "I'm glad you're here too, Katniss." She said. I know that she is a Career tribute and I'm just a tribute from 12, but that doesn't mean we can't be friends.
"We can both be friends you know." I said. She looked at me. "Friends?" She asked. I nodded. "Yeah. Even though, you're a career, we can still be friends." I said. Then she spoke. "Yeah...we can be friends." She said. Then she spoke again. "I've never had a friend before." She said, her voice sounded sad. I looked at her and spoke. "Weren't you able to make friends with the other careers?" I asked. She shook her head. "No...and I don't even bother trying...all they care about is winning the games and how good their skills are and stuff." She said. Then I moved towards her and took her hand into mine. Then I moved her hand to where my heart is. Then I spoke. "Well, you have a friend now." I said. She looked at me and gave me a warm smile. "Thank you." She said. "You're welcome, Clove." I said with a smile. Well, it looks like she and I have a good start at being friends now. She took a few moments before talking to me. "I guess, I'll see you at the training center?" She asked. I smiled. "Yeah. I'll see you at the training center, 2." I joked. She chuckled. "See you tomorrow, 12." She joked. Then she got up and left. Then I went back to my room, plopped down onto my bed and fell asleep.
More will come soon in the future. Stay tuned for the next one. Please Review, it helps me a lot!
