It was a DARE

Chapter 7: What the Hell!

Author's Note: Sorry I haven't updated, I went to my friend's sleepover and I didn't get any sleep, so I was really tired and then I have to go back to school so…

Disclaimer: I don't own the hunger games, sadly :(

Clove's POV

"Why, are you guys staring at me?" I ask my friends Katniss and Annie.

"Um, no reason," Katniss says looking sown at her feet, and an awkward silence dawns, thankfully Annie breaks it.

"Update me on your relationship with Cato," she says.

"I really want to take it to another level; do you know what I mean?" I ask, I do want to take it to another level, because well, can you blame me? And I want to wipe that smug smirk off her face.

"I totally understand, go ask him out, don't wait on him or you'll be waiting forever," Katniss says

"You go girl! Never wait on a guy, sometimes we girls have to make the first move," Annie says

"Okay," I say. "I'll do it,"

They give me a thumb's up as I walk through the door into the hallway. I gulp as I stand in front of Cato's door. Should I go in?

I knock on the door finding it open slightly and take a deep breath as I push on the door and I am mortified by what I see before me. I stand there for a few seconds trying to take it in. Cato and Jackie are there snogging each other's mouths off. They are really going full out, but then they stop and look at me.

"Clove, look I'm sorry," Cato says.

"Jackie, how could you, you're one off my best friends,"

"Look, Clove, I'll explain later, but-" Jackie says

"It's ok, I understand, I'll leave you two alone," I say before heading out the door.

"Clove, wait!" I hear Cato shout behind me, but I ignore it and continue walking. What an idiot! And Jackie, I thought she was my friend. She knew I liked Cato but had to go suck his face off. Such great friends I have, I mean what have I ever done to her?

I walk back into my room, sighing.

"Clove, what happened, what did he say?" Annie asked me.

"We'll I found out that Jackie is a fucking backstabbing traitor and that she has a thing for my Cato,"

"Wait what; slow down, what actually happened?" Katniss asks

"Okay, I walked in on Jackie and Cato kissing," I say looking down.

"Jackie? Are you sure, Jackie's are friend she wouldn't do something like that." Annie says

"Oh, she would and she not my friend anymore, she turning into Glimmer," I say.

"Did you give her a chance to explain what was going on," Annie asks me

"No, but I doubt she'll come up with a good reason," I say.

"Don't be so mean come on, we've got to give her a chance to explain, "Annie says.

"No!" Katniss shouts.

"Why not?" I ask.

"Can I talk to Annie quickly?" Katniss asks

"Sure," I say.

She leads her outside, but I can still faintly hear them behind the door.

"You can't let her talk to Jackie," Katniss says

"Why not ?" Annie asks.

"Because Jackie is mad at Clove because- remember the last truth or dare game we played, well-"

"Oh, I get it," Annie says before they walk back in with smiles on their faces.

"Why is Cato such a jerk?" I ask to myself.

"Hey cheer up girl, you should go see Alfie and we'll sort out this Cato, Jackie situation," Katniss says.

"Who's Alfie again?" Annie asks

"The guy we met at the pizza place," Katniss says

"Are you guys going to be okay handling the whole Jackie thing?" I ask.

"We'll be fine, now go have some fun," Annie says smiling at me.

"Okay then," I say as I pull on my red converse. "See you later,"

Katniss POV

"Poor Clove, what a bitch Jackie was," I say.

"I know, we have to sort this out," she says.

"Your right," I say and we walk downstairs to face Jackie. I glance at the large clock in the hallway, and groan.

"What's wrong?" Annie asks.

"It's six o'clock I promised Peeta that I'd meet him at the bakery in town," I say.

"You're going to be late, go!" Annie says.

"But what about-"

"Relax, I'll sort it out" Annie says calmly.

"Are you sure?" I ask

"Yep," she says nodding "I'll be fine"

"Thanks and good luck with her," I shout to her on my way through the door.

"Have fun, on your date," she shouts back and I feel myself blush all over, thankfully I'm outside in the dark and no one can see me.

Hope you enjoyed that chapter, sorry it was so short, I'll try to update soon but I'm a really lazy person, I still haven't done any homework! Please read and review!
