Katniss.

Cato truly was beautiful . His skin sparkled , his rough blonde hair , his athletic body , and his deep blue eyes . They had a different look in them lately , they changed . The old eyes were the ones that slaughtered Peeta , but he would never be able to make that up , not matter how handsome he can be .

My hand was still rested on his arm . He tensed up to my touch at first , but he relaxed and closed his eyes , taking it in . He moved his hand onto mine , removing them from his arm never releasing my hand .

"Katniss ." He whispered softly . He eyes still cold , he moved our hands up to his mouth and pressed his lips onto my palm . I was shocked . Why was he doing this , treating me like he cared ?

Cato.

She smelt like the forest , even with being in the hospital for weeks , she still smelt like pine . I closed my eyes to imagine her walking through the woods , her brown hair in a tight braid as she turns her head to meet my gaze , and her warm , grey eyes meeting my deep , blue ones . I kissed her soft hand , and she skin pressed to my lips , the feelings was sensasional .

Cato , what are you doing ? My mind screamed , but my heart begged for more of her skin pressed to mine .

Dang it , Cato . Snap out of it . I opened my eyes , to find hers closed . I released her hand , and she raised her eye lids .

"I'm sorry , I don't know what came over me ." I said dropping my gaze to the floor .

"It's fi ..." I cut her off .

"No , Katniss it's not ." I stood up to leave . She grabbed my wrist and pulled me down beside her on the bed .

Katniss.

"Please ," I paused , unable to say what I truly wanted , "please Cato , stay with me ."
