Author's Note: Hey! This idea came to me last night but I decided that I would write the entire day leading up to the Tracker Jacker incident. I will also be including the next morning of the incident. So with that, here is chapter three of Love Triangle.

Chapter 3- To The Accident of Tracker Jackers

Clove POV

I wake up, knife still in hand. I realise it wasn't a nightmare I am actually in the Hunger Games. I sigh and set my knife down when a voice startled me and I picked the knife back up.

"Morning," the voice had said.

I turned to see Peeta Mellark's soft blue eyes widen as I held a knife in his direction. So that was a nightmare either. Peeta has joined the careers. He isn't a career so I don't trust him. Then again, I don't trust Glimmer and she is a career. In other words, I have trust issues. The only person I could ever trust was Cato. Even with him, I have trust issues.

I lay back down as Peeta gets up and sits beside me.

"You know that I don't hate you right?" Peeta asked.

"What?"

"I don't hate you because you are a career, I actually don't mind you."

I sit up and look at him in shock as Cato woke up and Peeta quickly moved away from me. Cato turned to me and Peeta and yawned.

"Morning Clove, morning Peeta. Any signs of fresh prey?"

I shook my head and Peeta yawned. I stood up and stretched. At this time, I noticed Marvel was up and watching me. He tried to cover it up but it was obvious to Cato, Peeta, and me that he had been staring at me.

When Glimmer woke up, we decide to split up to do hunting. Girls in one group, boys in the other. Glimmer and I weren't more than five feet from the boys when Glimmer started barking at me.

"I can't stand you, you act like a big shot even though you're not! And you think all the guys belong to you!"

"What are you talking about? I don't think guys belong to me."

"You act like Cato's yours but he's mine!"

I look back towards the guys. Luckily, they were so deep in their own conversation and laughing to hear what Glimmer and I were talking about.

I look at Glimmer. "Cato is like my brother. I can't see him as anything more."

I was lying of course. Cato is my best friend, and he is like my brother, but I have had those moments where I wish he would see me as something more but that day was never going to happen so I gave up on it about two years ago.

We walked around for about an hour but it felt like a week because it was with her. We met up with the guys and realized we needed to fill our water canteens. We started off to the river, where we got the biggest surprise of the games. Our main target.

The girl on fire.

"There she is!" Marvel screamed blowing our cover.

"She's mine!" I yelled.

"Not if I get her first!" Cato taunted.

We were all screaming as we chased Katniss until she disappeared into a tree. Cato leapt at the tree climbing it towards Katniss. We were all cheering him on, except Peeta. I think I was the only one who noticed but I didn't say anything. We were so excited until Cato misgrabbed a branch and came crashing to the ground. I was worried he broke his neck until he got up and stretched hs neck. I looked at Marvel who looked upset. I was assuming it was because Cato's neck wasn't broken.

"I'll do it myself," Glimmer mumbled as she loaded an arrow into the bow.

She took a shot and it satisfied me to know she was a terrible shot and missed. Cato grabbed the bow out of anger, loaded an arrow for himself, and tried to shoot Katniss. He was a worst shot than Glimmer! I didn't know that was possible!

"Why don't you throw the sword?" Katniss said in a strained voice.

Cato looked ready to toss his sword at her until Peeta spoke.

"Why don't we just wait her out?" We all looked at him. "I mean she has to come down eventually, it's either that or starve to death."

After a brief exchanged look with Glimmer, Cato spoke up. "Fine," he said shoving the bow in Glimmer's hands. "Somebody make a fire."

We all separated to start looking for fire supplies. Peeta started walking, but I shot him a look saying Stay there and make sure she doesn't leave and he stopped dead in his tracks.

...

After nightfall hit, us careers were more than comfortable staying there until Katniss came down into our pack, ready to be killed. Cato was bored so he stuck the end of his sword into the fire until the end was bright red. He pulled it out and spit on it. It sizzled. Glimmer laughed and said 'Boys.' I looked at them then started to throw some knifes into a lizard just as practice for fire girl. Eventually we all laid down except Peeta who volunteered to take first watch. We all fell asleep.

That night I had a dream. It was of the first class about wildlife I dragged Cato to. We were learning about Tracker Jackers. About half way through the class, they were playing the sound a Tracker Jacker buzzing. But it sounded more real than when we were actually having the sound played for us in the class. It was morning when I opened my eyes and realized us careers were in the middle of a swarm of Tracker Jackers! I screamed as I realized the other careers had awoken too. I screamed 'to the lake' in my loudest voice. I heard three responses, all male, Glimmer hadn't responded to my call. I was thinking, no, I was hoping Glimmer was being stung to death. We reached to lake and I was the first one to drop in followed by one, two, three, four jumps in. Wait a minute, I hadn't seen Glimmer running and I'm pretty sure when I threw my jacket, it hit her in the face. I don't know who the fifth person in the water was.

Pretty quickly, the swarm disappeared. All five of us resurfaced and I looked who the fifth person was. It was another boy. He looked scared but as he started moving towards the edge of the water, I lunged at him and dragged him back under water with a knife to his throat. He pushed me off and tried to resurface. I grabbed his ankle and tried to drag his back into my grasp but he kicked my chin and I blacked out.

...

"SHE'S AWAKE!" I heard Marvel shout as I coughed and sat up. I noticed two heads snap in our direction. Cato and the District three boy. Peeta was no where to be seen.

"Where's Peeta gone to?" I asked.

Cato and Marvel exchanged glances before Cato answered my question.

"Peeta's suffering. He's a traitor."

"And who's that guy?" I asked motioning to the District three boy as Marvel pulled me to my feet.

"Good question," Marvel answered. "That would be a good question to have asked him." He looked at the district three boy and called out. "District three! What's your name?"

"Good question Marvel!" Cato called.

"It was Clove's question."

The District three boy cleared his throat to get our attention. "My name is Will."

"Well Will. I'm Clove, the blond boy is Cato, and the guy helping me up is Marvel. Wait, what are you doing?" I asked.

"Maybe we should of thought about doing a name call earlier," Cato said to Marvel.

"To answer your question, Clove, I'm reactivating the mines around our supplies to protect them. We will still probably need a watch to be careful, but still! The mines will lift a weight off our shoulders. And before you ask how we'll get to our own supplies, I'm making slight divots where it is safe to step," Will responded with a smile.

I got up to look at his work and started walking over. I was just about to step on the dirt patch but Will tackled me to the ground.

"What are you doing?" I barked.

"Saving all of our lives, anywhere where the is dirt but no divot could set a mine off!" He responded taking rapid breaths.

Cato pulled Will off me and Marvel helped me up. We basically could hang around for a bit. Will took his divot path followed by Marvel then Cato. The boys were forming a chain to bring a couple crates, tarps, and metal bars out so we could set up a comfortable camp.

"Why didn't you dim wits just leave these supplies out of the pyramid while the mines were being set up so you would have to do this?" I shouted at them.

The boys exchanged glances as they paused until Marvel spoke up.

"That's why I said she should be the leader. She's so much more clever than us."

We set up camp and then sat down with everyone sitting on a crate except Marvel who laid on the ground like a kid. After what felt like an hour of awkward silence. Cato asked me a question.

"Yesterday when we split up into a girls group and a guys group to go tribute hunting, we heard Glimmer yelling at you. What were you guys talking about?"

"She said I act like all the guys belong to me, even though I don't, and then said to lay off you because she's yours, not me." I shrugged.

"Well she is!" Marvel yelled at me and Cato.

"Excuse me?" I asked in a not-so-kind voice.

"I said Glimmer is Cato's. And by that logic, you're mine!" Marvel said in his best logical voice.

This is not going to end well was the only thought running through my head.

Cato POV

Did Marvel just say what I think he said? I think he did.

"No Stupid. Clove is MINE! Glimmer can be yours for all I care," I snapped.

That quickly escalated to a full on argument. I was just about to snap Marvel's neck when Will started shouting at us which caught both of our attention.

"GUYS! Let Clove choose. You both obviously like her, so give her the final say. No anger from the guy she doesn't pick though. Okay?"

I looked back at Marvel who looked back at me. We shrugged at each other and looked back at Will and nodded in his direction. He turned his head to Clove's seat.

"Clove would you rather be with Cato or Marv-" he cut himself off.

Clove has disappeared into thin air.

Where did Clove go? I'll let you know in the next chapter. Please review, favorite, and follow. What's going to happen. DUN, DUN, DUN! Oh, and thanks for reading. I'll update once I get a chance to write a new chapter and finish writing it. Bye for now.
