Sorry it's short :( please review, This chapter may be boring but I just want the games to begin sorry. :)X
"Morning babe." Clove kisses me on my cheek and takes the seat next to me at the breakfast table.
"Morning." She picks up a bread bun and begins to spread on some butter.
"Training today."
"I can't wait."
"Good, that mean you'll be coming with me?"
"Maybe."
"Hope you do." Clove uses her spare hand and strokes her fingers up and down my arm. "I really want us on the same side."
"So do I but." She presses her finger on my lips.
"Don't say it, you don't want to be with 12."
"Yes."
"Oh Cato when will you realise I'm doing a good thing here and join me." She grins at me.
"Clove, I'm a career and careers stick together so that means I'll be with Gloss and Cashmere."
"Cato! Please I don't want to hurt you."
"You wont." I stand up and walk to the elevator.
…
I arrive at the training gym first, I walk towards Atlas.
"Hey." I say.
"Nice and early Cato."
"Guess I am." The elevator doors open and in comes Clove, prim and Haymitch. "Great." I sigh. The four of us stand in a awkward circle while we await the other tributes. Finally after a horrible few minutes the other tributes arrive and we start training.
I walk over to Gloss and Cashmere who are chatting quietly.
"Hey guys." I say.
"Hey Cato shall we go do some spears?" Gloss asks.
"Sure." I smile and follow him towards one of my favourite sections.
I get distracted a lot as I often look for clove around the gym I see her three times during the day. The first time is when she is at the survival station with district 3. Second time is when she's Helping prim with a knife. The final time I see her before Gloss notices is when Clove is at the knot station with Finnick fucking Odair! I swallow hard and begin to walk towards her when Gloss grabs my arm.
"Cato, leave her, she's made her choice." I shrug him off.
"She's my fucking fiancé!" I shout. Cashmere comes running and also grabs my arm.
"Calm down Cato." She soothes.
"NO I will not fucking calm down." I brush past them and storm towards Clove. I grab Finnick and throw him out of the way. Clove squeals and moves backwards on all fours.
"Why are you with him?" I question.
"He wants to be in a alliance with me." She's scared of me great this is all I need.
"Clove, I'm sorry, you know I don't like him."
"I know, you still don't want to be in my alliance though do you?"
"No."
"Kay." She looks down at her hands, she doesn't dare look at me.
"Clove." I tip her head up. "I'm really sorry, I know what I'm doing with all this."
"Totally." She stands up and walks away, I don't watch her but I hear her laugh and assume she's with Finnick but when I turn around I see a tribute puking over the swords.
…
The rest of my time in the training centre goes by in a whirl. Me and Clove both got 12's in our private sessions which was good but tonight are the interviews, which will be interesting.
"Clove can I have a hug?" I plead.
"Why?"
"Because I love you and I wont get as many in the arena." She walks into my arms and we embrace.
"Cato you still can change your mind."
"I no I can, later."
"Later?"
"Later in the games."
"Cato that's risky."
"Not if I know you'll always be on my side."
"I'd never kill you Cato."
"Good."
…
"Cato you can't keep away." Ceaser welcomes me onto stage. I laugh.
"I no I'm a sucker for punishment" I look down at my knees.
"Clove also volunteered."
"Yup."
"I couldn't help but notice the ring on her finger."
"Yes we are engaged." The audience scream in excitement.
"Shame there wont be a wedding."
"Hmm yea." The bell goes for out of time.
"Sorry, we've ran out of time, Cato everyone."
Once all the interviews are over Clove is first to grab my hand then prim grabs my other and all the other tributes join in a circle holding hands.
"What are we doing?" I whisper to Clove.
"Showing the world, we are united."
