A/N: Hi people! Sorry I haven't been updating but soccer is kicking my butt (literally) and I published a new story! It's called Secret Princess. I think it's pretty good but what do I know? If you would read it that would be awesome!

Chapter 12:

"I'm Seneca Crane and this is my fiancé, Enobria… we are her parents"

Clove froze as his words echoed around the apartment. She couldn't move, couldn't think. What was she supposed to think? The two people that left her on the orphanage steps in the middle of the night without even ringing the doorbell.

"Clove" Cato whispered kneeling next to her.

"Let them in" she whispered. She looked at him and could see the pain in his eyes. "Let them in" she said again. He got up, kissing her cheek and let in the two people she never thought she would meet.

Seneca and Enobria just stared at her. Their pregnant daughter. "You can sit, I guess" Cato murmured, gesturing to the other couch and sitting down next to Clove. He wrapped his arms around her waist, keeping her close to him.

They sat down. "We were 13" she started. "We were 13 when I became pregnant with you. We were to young to have a baby, but my mother wouldn't let me get an abortion."

Cato tightened his grip around Clove's waist, thinking about what his life would be without her. "I have birth to you in a clover field behind my house and a few days after you were born we left you at the orphanage."

"There hasn't been a day since we haven't thought about you. Haven't wondered what happened to our little Clover" Saneca said. An awkward silence past before Saneca broke the silence. "Tell us about your life."

"I wasn't adopted" she said quickly. "People didn't want a baby who was left on the doorstep. I lived in the orphanage all my life. When Cato turned 18 we moved here, got married about eight months ago and he knocked me up."

"You made the same mistake we did" Enobria whispered.

Cato clenched his fists and Clove snapped "Get out!"

"Wh-?" they started before Clove interrupted them.

"Get out" she pointed to the door and her parents marched out, not looking back.

"You ok?" Cato asked, after a few moments.

"Yeah…" she sighed. "Let's just not talk about that again."


Peeta sat alone in his room, his head in his hands. Gale's secret was tarring him apart. He couldn't talk to Gale or even look Madge in the eye, but there was no way he would tell her the truth.

"Dude, what's got you down?" Thresh asked, walking into the room.

"Nothing" Peeta said quickly.

Thresh gave him a look. "Sure" he said, narrowing his eyes as if it would make Peeta tell the secret he promised he wouldn't.

"Why are you in here?" Peeta asked, holding back a yawn. He couldn't even sleep properly since he walked in on Gale and Cashmere.

"Brutus and I have a project on Queen and I have to show you this song" Thresh got Brutus' iPod out of his pocket and selected a song. Peeta put the earbud in his ear and he heard the song Good Old Fashioned Loverboy.

"Haha, very funny" Peeta said, throwing the bud out of his ear.

"It's true, man" Thresh laughed, moon-walking out of the room leaving Peeta in his personal hell.


I'm glad you decided to come on this walk with us" Marvel said, smiling at Foxy while LF, a.k.a, Little Feathers walked in front of them.

"Got nothin' better to do" Foxy said, looking at her dirty converse and pulling her sleeves down so other pedestrians couldn't see the red cuts on her wrist. She hated when people saw them, or even when they looked at her. The fact alone that she was walking a stolen peacock brought her more attention than she wanted, she definitely didn't want them to see her cuts.

"I'm sure you do" Marvel said. "You could annoy Cato and Clove, that always cheers me up." Foxy smiled. Marvel was almost constantly at Cato and Clove's apartment annoying them to set up a play-date with their un-born child and LF.

"You won't believe how many little things can make you want to cut" Foxy said, mostly to herself.

Marvel took a deep breath. "Why do you hate your life so much? Once you get to the orphanage it's pretty great."

"Yeah besides the constant reminder that you weren't wanted and never will be" Foxy scowled.

"You know your father wasn't able to-" Marvel started.

"I wasn't wanted, Marvel! I still have the scars from when he hit me and I'll never be able to forget every time he blamed me for my mom leaving!" Foxy yelled. A few people were stating to stare, but the two teens were to caught up in their argument to notice.

"You think you weren't the only one?" Marvel yelled back. He was usually a sweet, cool tempered coy, but Foxy had really pissed him off. "At least your dad loved you enough to actually feed you when he was sober! My parents only gave me table scraps, sometimes I had to go for days without eating! Your dad called Social Services on himself to protect you! My parents left me in their house without food! I was almost dead when I was found. You're not the only one whose life was hell" Marvel said quietly.

Foxy was flabbergasted. She didn't know Marvel's childhood was so terrible, his carefree demeanor tricked anyone who knew him that he had a happy childhood when it was the complete opposite. "Marvel, I'm so sorry. I didn't know" She stuttered.

"Just forget it" Marvel said. He picked up LF and put it in his pocket before walking away, leaving Foxy alone in the park.


Madge wandered around the school looking for Gale. It was finally homecoming and all of her friends where having fun but her because Gale disappeared. She looked threw the whole school for him, she even went into a few make restrooms. This night had to be perfect.

"Could he be in the janitor's closet?" she asked herself, walking towards the door. She could smell the chemicals, but still opened the door only to have her heart broken.

She saw Gale, her Gale, lying on top of Cashmere Granite. They were both naked and kissing fiercely. "Gale?" she asked, tears streaming down her perfectly made up face.

Gale and Cashmere pulled apart and looked at Madge crying in the doorway. "Madge, it's not what it looks like" Gale said, but Madge shook her head and ran down the hallway.

"Aren't you going after her?" Cashmere asked Gale after Madge disappeared.

"Nah, your funner to fuck" he said before they resumed kissing.

A/N: Damn now I'm pissed. For me that chapter was overall angry. Now I'm on a bad mood… poop. Anyway, as I said above I posted a new story called Secret Princess and a one-shot called Ghosts. Please red them! It would make my bad mood into a good one.
