Chapter 10: Interviews

Right before the interviews, Cato was pulled aside by his mentor, Burtus as the made sure that the plan that they had set was down.

"Confess your love for Katniss, if Cesar doesn't bring it up, then you have to. Haymitch already talked to Katniss so she knows what to do." He grunted, smoothing out the front of Cato's grey suit.

Cato nodded haphazardly and tried to look past his mentor to catch a glimpse of Katniss, but only saw the other careers surrounding him.

"Cato, you're looking pretty good tonight." Glimmer purred, rubbing a hand against his shoulder.

"What's up with you tonight?" Cato asked, stepping away from her. "You were so nice before."

"When I want something, I get it. I was fine before Katniss came along and now she's in the way." Glimmer said. "She better watch her back, I always get what I want." She slowly backed away slowly then went back over to we her mentors.

"Sorry about her, she's a little bit crazy right now. Kind of like her now or never time since it's our last night before the arena." Marvel said, stalking after Glimmer.

"Once the alliance is over, she's the first one to go." Cato said to Clove.

"Heck, if she does one thing wrong, don't be surprised to find a knife in her chest." Clove smirked and went to go talk to the mentors while Cato set out for Katniss.

Once he found her, Cato stepped back for a second to admire what Cinna had put her in. She was wearing a red dress, emblazoned with red, orange, yellow, and blue gems going up the dress like flames. Her hair was in intricate braids and her makeup made her look smoky and mysterious.

"I think I know what side they're trying to play you up on." Cato whisper into her ear.

Katniss turned around slowly and smirked at him. "Oh really? And what side is that?"

"Your beautiful one." Cato ducked his head for a kiss, but Effie pulled him away and clicked her tongue.

"Manners, mister. We are in public and I'm pretty sure that you don't want to go onstage wearing some red lipstick."

"So what was Glimmer doing with you?" Peeta asked menacingly, causing Katniss to slightly step away from Cato.

"Yeah Cato, what was she?" Katniss asked.

(A little bit of what Peeta sees, for the first time!)

Peeta rode down the elevator in silence with Katniss and Haymitch, only casting sidelong glances of the girl that he was irrevocably in love with. He knew that Cato had taken her away in a matter of days unlike the years he had to try and get her.

Knowing that Katniss wasn't budging from staying with Cato, Peeta and Glimmer devised a plan. Going into the arena, they had decided to cause some tension between the happy couple. With Glimmer incessantly being at Cato's side and Peeta being like a lost puppy to Katniss will make them jealous of each other and hopefully tear them apart. After all, Peeta wants Katniss and Glimmer wants Cato.

The first phase was going down well, which involved Glimmer attempting to seduce Cato accept for the fact that Katniss wasn't looking. When Cato left and went over to the group from District 12, Peeta decided to shake things up by asking about Glimmer. Luckily, Katniss caught onto this and looked at Cato curiously.

"Well," Cato cleared his throat to start. "she was just asking about tomorrow and what the plan is." He lied smoothly.

"So you told her the plan for tomorrow but not me, I feel so special now." Katniss said defensively, slowly putting her wall back up.

"I'm sorry, but you never asked." Cato said, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Now I see, you were gonna send me in there not knowing what the hell is going on? Glad to know you still care about me." Katniss retorted.

"I still do, but she's the one that brought it up not me." Cato tried to reason, but Peeta decided to cut in.

"Haymitch wants to talk to us before we line up." He said, gently grabbing Katniss' arm, watching Cato's eyes shoot daggers at him.

"Okay." Katniss nodded and then turned to Cato. "I'll go on that stage and do what the mentors want me to, but this conversation isn't over."

Cato gulped and slowly nodded before adding quietly, "Good luck." And walking back to his district.

Peeta put his hand on the small of Katniss' back and gently guided her to Haymitch and Effie.

"You know what to do, sweetheart." He pointed at Katniss shakily. "Just try to be nice for once in your life."

Peeta smirked before Haymitch turned to him. "And you," he prodded Peeta in the chest. "Be the lovable idiot you are."

They both nodded and stood in line for the interviews. Peeta saw Glimmer giving Cato winks and what not and Cato trying to catch Katniss' eye, which she managed to avoid by talking to Peeta.

The interviews went smoothly, Cato and Katniss did as they were told and are now the star crossed lovers. Peeta wanted to barf but, they had set up his plan perfectly.

When Cesar Flickerman asked if Peeta had a special girl back home, he tried to say no but his 'secret' ended up coming out to all of Panem. A secret that would change the games forever.

That Peeta was in love with Katniss.
