Katniss ran around the training center, knocking over expensive equipment as Cato chased her. Her breath was rigid as she jumped over a random barrel. Her eyes then saw a ladder. She ran over to it and effortlessly jumped up on it, beginning to climb it till she reached the top, then she began crawling up the nets on the wall. Her fingers clutched the thin ropes as she reached her arms out to get more ropes to help her climb across over the mini pool that was 20 feet down.
Cato was right behind her.
She sighed when she reached the end of the netting. Without using the ladder she dropped down, shakily landing, crouched down, her feet stinging a little in pain. She ignored it and ran to the closest weapons station. She smiled to herself when she saw what it was. The archery station.
Katniss quickly picked up the metal bow and slipped an arrow in before pointing it at Cato who was now only 3 feet away, almost in arms distances. He didn't hold up his hands in defeat, there was no sign of worry in his eyes. He wasn't scared she would shoot him. He only smiled.
Before any of them could say anything Peacekeepers came running from all directions and surrounded them, their faces serious. Katniss set down her bow slowly before backing away. Cato just continued to smile as he watched her.
"You got to wait till the Games," She teased. Cato just shook his head.
"Maybe, maybe not," he said back before walking away from her, a coy smile on his handsome face.
Katniss thought he was just joking; she is in for quite a surprise.
Later that night
Katniss filled her mouth with a minty green mouthwash, splashing it around before spitting It out in the sink, holding her wild hair back so to not accidently spit in it. She leaned up, quickly shaking her head to wake up before opening the medicine cabinet, trying to find some sleeping pill. Ever sense she volunteered for her sister, terrible dreams flooded her mind at night, making her wake up and unable to fall back asleep. Dark bags were starting to form under her eyes. Her fingers slid over all the ointments in search of a pill but undoubtfully couldn't find any. She sighed and closed the cabinet. Her droopy eyes hadn't even registered the tall figure standing behind her in the mirror.
She felt a strong arm wrap around her, beginning to choke her. She tried clawing at the arm, her feet kicking around and knocking stuff off the sink. It took her till now to notice who it was. Golden muscles, perfect blonde hair, handsome face with a cocky smile. Cato.
The only thought running through Katniss mind was "He's really going to kill me. Cato is going to kill me, right here, right now,"
As if Cato had heard her thoughts, he began laughing and released her. Katniss took a huge gulp of air before swiftly turning on her heels, pressing her back against the sink and gripping the edge of it for support.
"What the hell do you want?"
"What do I want? You embarrassed me, gave me a busted lip. I'm just here to make it even," He practically purred. Now Katniss laughed.
"Oh yeah big boy, you going to hit me?" She challenged.
"Oh no, no hands," Cato smirked before leaning in and smashing his lips onto hers.
