Clove's P.O.V.
I knocked on the door and sighed. His mum opened it, and i smiled warmly. I entered, then walked up the stairs towards his room.
"Cato?" i called out.
"In here, Clove!" he responded, and i walked in. I walked over to him, and he ruffled my hair.
"Don't do that." I mumbled, then i sat on his bed. "Whacha up too?"
He shrugged. "Just polishing my sword." I nodded. "Clove, what's wrong?"
"Nothing." I muttered. This was obviously lies. Cato had been seeing that plastic barbie from District 2, again. It was a matter of time before he asked her out. I admit, she was pretty. Prettier then me.
"Clove.." I narrowed my eyes at him, and he dropped it. "So..are we volunteering for the Hunger Games?" I shrugged.
"I don't mind." He sighed.
"Clove, what's wrong for gods sake? You're normally up for anything! You were really excited for the games! Clove..please.."
"I've got to go." I stood, and waved a hand at him.
"You've just got here.." he muttered.
"Well, A girl takes forever to change! Now, im going. bye." He raised his eyebrows.
"Where are you going, then?"
"Date. With that Marvel dude." I smirked slightly.
"Wait, what? You can't go on a date with him! He's from district 1!"
"And?" i snapped. "You're dating that Glimmer girl!"
He bit his lip. "Clove, thats differ-"
"How Cato? HOW?" I inturrupted, screaming at him, then storming out.
I slipped on my skinny jeans, and my flowery jacket. There was no way i was going to dress up. I walked downstairs, and kissed my mum's cheek goodbye, then left.
"Lookin' good." two muscular arms wrapped around my waist, and i jumped.
"What do you want, Cato?" I mumbled, wriggling out of his arms. He sighed and looked at me.
"You left before we had a chance to discuss the games."
"Well, now isn't a good time. I'm going to be late." I sighed, then walked towards where i was meeting Marvel.
"Well, then, i'll come too your's tomorrow!" he called, and i nodded.
Cato's P.O.V:
I knocked on her bedroom door, and smirked as she opened it, seeing she was in her towel.
"Cato! I just got out the shower!" She mumbled.
"Look who's still little miss moody today. Fine, ill wait out here." and i chuckled at her 'I'm not little.' comment.
After she was changed, I went in and sat on her bed.
"How was your date, then?"
"Crap. He wouldn't stop talking about his ex-girlfriend. Suprisingly, she wa-" then she trailed off. I knew then, she was hiding something. I lay down on her bed, and she rested her head on my arm.
"Hey, you're getting me wet!" i laughed. She snorted at this remark. "Clove, you know you're my best friend, right?" I asked. She nodded. "And that NOTHING would ever come between us?" She nodded again.
"Course i do. Anyway, so, you're volunteering?" Then i was the one to nod. "I'm not." I widened my eyes.
"Wait, what? Why?" I was shocked.
"I dont want too. Maybe next year." Then she stood up, and put her hair in a messy bun. She looked beautiful.
