AN: You reviewers are just so damn AWESOME! The feedback has been great, minus the putrid comment about the letters in Finnick's name being out of order, my apologies on that one. One or two people found the beginning a little OOC for Cato, but I wanted to make it like in life when you hit a breaking point and you know that if you keep going the way you are you will lose everything. So you either keep going and lose it, or you make a serious change. Now do not fear Cato isn't changing per say, its more that he just decided to actually SAY what he wanted/feared instead of just physically telling Luctra. Though I do know the physical is a fav part for some reviewers. It's what makes the conversation with Luctra at the end of the last chapter so much more devastating. Like when you take a huge risk and it turns out you never could have won no matter what. Heartbreaking and I am sure most of us have all been there one way or another.
To Ashley, you are not to blame for anything! Really you have prompted me to go back and make things better and much clearer!
Thank you for the tips and yes they will be joining 13 but that is later on because no one has any clue who survived or where the hell they went. It's going to be a journey so pack your bags! :D
Ok so this chapter is going to be part the other escaped tributes and then a good part just Luctra's internal battle with herself. Don't worry I think you will be happy, you reviewers that we mad with how Luctra treated Cato. :D
For this chapter please keep in mind that I will be explaining Clove and her relationship with Cato in a lot more detail later on. It's going to help develop Cato's past, it will also help understand why Clove is more violent then the others.
Now I know that a lot of people now simply add stories to their alerts of favourites, but I am an old school fanfic user and writer and I WANT FEEDBACK! REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW!
Enjoy!
Chapter Twenty One:
Analyzing the Zombies
"What's wrong with them?" Peeta whispered concerned the following morning. They could all see that both Cato and Luctra had shut off from the world around them. Since they had all woken up this morning they had been almost completely unresponsive and void of emotion. It was freaking the group out.
"I have no idea. They're acting like zombies." Katniss said watching Luctra who was sitting beside her backpack staring out into space completely dead to the world.
"It's so weird. I poked Cato with the end of my spear and he didn't do jack shit to me!" Marvel whispered worriedly. He actually did have an idea about what might be wrong, but considering the two parties involved he wanted to keep his nose out of it if he could.
"You poked Cato with your spear?" Foxy asked. She looked over to the opposite side of the camp where Cato was sitting at the base of a tree. He was twirling a dagger around his hand, also completely dead to the world except he seemed to have more mental function then Luctra did.
"Yes. It's always safer to poke Cato from a distance." Marvel replied like it was the most obvious thing on the planet. "Do you think maybe they like neutralized each other?" Marvel pondered. Everyone looked at him confused.
"Well they both have tempers and strong personalities, so maybe they got into an argument, then like a grenade they exploded and now there's nothing left but the pieces." Marvel theorized. It was a weird way to put it but all of them were afraid Marvel was right. Cato and Luctra were acting like shells of themselves.
"What are we gonna do now that our two fearless leaders are almost dead to the world?" Azra asked the group.
"Got a defibrillator?" Marvel asked Foxy seriously. Foxy just looked at Marvel then shook her head.
"Look I'll stick next to Cato so he doesn't lead us into a swamp or something." Katniss announced taking up the leadership spot till Luctra snapped out of her funk.
"I'll stick by Luctra and make sure she doesn't wander off or get left behind." Peeta volunteered. He was worried about Luctra. If her fire could go out so quickly what hope did a rebellion have of blazing a trail. The group nodded to each other but stayed standing together silently watching Luctra and Cato. Maybe they could see a clue as to what the hell was wrong with either of them.
"It's a real bitch when someone takes away another person's hope." Clove said coming up to the group. They all looked at her warily not sure if she should be involved in their conversation.
"What do you mean?" Marvel asked. Maybe Clove knew as much as he did, or more about what was going on .
"I've known Cato a hell of a lot longer than all of you and that boy may be one of the most skilled Careers ever to come out of District 2 but they killed him at the Academy." Clove offered looking at Cato. Clove knew she may be crossing a line by talking about this but she owed it to Cato. He had been like this once before and the results hadn't been pretty.
"Ummm…I know I said they were brain dead but he seems pretty alive to me." Azra said scratching his head and looking at Cato.
"Not literally dumbass. You guys wouldn't understand, but the Tribute Academy takes who you are, rips out the parts that won't make you a victor and stuffs in what they want. Cato coming later in his life meant that as hard as they pulled certain pieces of who he was wouldn't come out, so they beat them down instead. But those pieces are still there." Clove snapped. With they way they were looking at her Clove knew they were wondering if the Academy had done the same to her.
"Is that why he gave her the medical supplies?" Katniss asked. She had been wondering about that since it happened, it just wasn't the move of a coldblooded killer.
"And how does this have to do with someone taking hope away? Are we still talking about Luctra and Cato?" Peeta added. He was sure smoke was about to come out of his ears from trying to follow this conversation.
"Yes Lover Boy we are still talking about them! None of you idiots realize that this..whatever...between them didn't just start and end last night. It's got to have more history BETWEEN them since they are both zombies at the same time after buggering off to talk in the woods." Clove hissed. Most were surprised. No one else had seen them go off into the woods together other then Clove.
"THE PUDDING!" Marvel shouted only to have Foxy shush him. Not that either Cato or Luctra had reacted to the outburst. Marvel now knew he hadn't been seeing things this whole time when it came to Cato.
"Exactly." Clove confirmed. Everyone else was extremely confused now. Now there was pudding involved? Seeing the confusion Clove decided to clue people in since she had been the one to clue them in in the first place.
"Something happened during the Games, between Cato and Luctra, after they both went into the river. Whatever it was someone outside the Games thought what happened meant Cato was going soft and sent him pudding to communicate that." Clove concluded.
"Any idea what could have happened?" Azra questioned the group looking around.
"You would have to ask Dash and Rue about that…" Katniss said. They had been with Luctra the longest so if anyone other then Cato knew it would be one of them.
"What would make a killer look soft?" Peeta pondered. He thought Cato was anything but soft and he had the scar on his thigh to prove it.
"Hey when Luctra went over the cliff does anyone know if she was hurt?" Azra asked his brow furrowing as he thought hard about something. He looked to the two Careers in the group. Azra knew about the cliff jumping since Marvel had made a joke about what that cannonball would have looked like, at the river party, and then explained the story to Thresh and himself who had no clue what he was talking about.
"Not from what I could tell. She was crouching down, why?" Marvel asked curiously.
"At the river, you remember her leg?" Azra asked Marvel as the pieces began to fall into place in his head.
"The one with the huge scar on it?" Marvel said remembering the large shiny scar that ran down and around the back of one of Luctra's thighs. It would have been a pretty gruesome injury when it happened.
"Yeah, well that wasn't there at Luctra's interview." Azra recalled. All the boys nodded agreeing. They all vividly remembered Luctra's leg from the interview. What red blooded male wouldn't? "And if she was crouching by the cliff then she got that sometime after she jumped and it was healed before she entered the forest fire, since there is no way in hell she would have been able to run if it was still fresh." Azra deduced having heard from Rue about Luctra saving her in from the forest fire.
"So let me get this straight Luctra threw herself off a cliff, Cato followed, Luctra got seriously hurt and then maybe Cato found her." Katniss listed the events.
"He did find her." Peeta interjected awkwardly. Everyone waited for him to explain how he knew this.
"I found Luctra at the river when I went to fill the canteens while Katniss was up the tree. Luctra said she didn't know why Cato didn't kill her but that there was a real person in him…or something like that." Peeta continued. Clove glared obviously not happy that Peeta had found Luctra and not told them. Peeta looked at her like what did it matter now, they were out.
"Wait didn't Luctra say she smashed Cato in the face with a bowl?" Marvel asked. "She would have had to have been close to him, and since it's fucking Cato he wouldn't have been that close to her unless…."
"Unless he was relaxed and trusted that she wouldn't go after him because he hadn't given her a reason too, that and maybe she owed him for something." Clove finished.
"Her Capitol medicine! Her leg had to have been healed in the time frame between going down river and when Cato came back to camp." Peeta declared. "Helping another tribute would TOTALLY make you look soft if you were supposed to be a ruthless killer." Peeta finished.
"Ok with all these pieces I think we can all agree on the following. Luctra got hurt in the river, Cato found her and must have helped her, they became comfortable with each other, she then smashed him the face with a bowl, probably from a sponsor gift at some point." Azra recounted.
"She must have done that to get away. Remember Cato came back and those wounds on his forehead and back of his head were fresh." Marvel added. He felt like they were trying to figure out one of those 'who-done-it' novels.
"That means the reason they separated was because she was able to run off, but why would he help her..." Katniss whispered looking at Cato. It just didn't make sense why he would help Luctra out with her leg, and then Rue.
"He likes her." Dash just joined the group making everyone jumped. They hadn't known he was listening.
"How do you know that?" Katniss asked turning to Dash.
"The night before we dropped the nest on you guys he found where we were hiding. He said he just wanted to see her and then kinda got a sad look on his face when he saw her hands." Dash supplied.
"Her hands?" Marvel questioned.
"Luctra got burned really bad in the fire, you wouldn't have seen it cause she wears her gloves all the time. He also left his shirt for her." Dash said confused still by the last part.
"I thought he just took it off for the sake of the sponsors." Marvel said thinking back to when they had woken up and Cato was bare chested, swatting away Tracker Jackers.
"But that doesn't explain how Luctra took his hope!" Katniss hissed. This was getting to be a really stupid conversation. She didn't see how Luctra could have taken hope from Cato when she gave it to so many other people.
"Because I think she rejected him." Clove put in. If Luctra had broken Cato, Clove was going to carve her name in Luctra's other leg.
"Ok well that could explain Cato if he REALLY liked her, but that doesn't explain why Luctra's has the brain function equivalence of a marshmallow with a toothpick." Marvel mentioned as he looked at Luctra who was sitting with her knees to her chest and her carver loose in her hand.
"Because she likes him to." Dash confessed quietly. He had never seen Luctra like this, so he hoped he was doing the right thing by telling them. Luctra was a super private person but she was hurting and Dash was afraid he'd lose her if she didn't snap out of it. Everyone snapped to Dash completely shockedl.
"What…."
"Just like you've know Cato I've known Luctra. She's mean to him and sometimes awkward, it's what she does when she likes a guy so they'll leave her alone." Dash told them. Luctra had actually told him as much when he asked why she was always arguing with Harhn, a boy from school, when he would try to talk to her. Harhn was a little less good looking then say Finnick or Cato, but he was still good looking, according to the girls that went to school with Dash.
"This makes so much sense now! After Cato came back from Luctra he was different, like angry but not lethal, he also tried to stab Glimmer when she got to close to him." Marvel concluded joyfully. He had thought Cato overreacted to Glimmer trying to snuggle with him, but if Cato was into Luctra then it MADE way more sense. He was right about all the things he had seen Cato do, and his reactions to Luctra since she dove off the cliff, which had obviously scared the shit out of Cato so he jumped after her. He had told Foxy about what he had seen and they had agreed to watch and see if he was right. Now he knew he was.
"Whatever he was hoping for, Luctra's rejection has taken it from him, and without the Hunger Games as a Tribute Cato really doesn't have anything left." Clove said sadly. She knew how hard Cato had fought at first to resist becoming a cold blooded killer, but eventually the instructors had beaten him down enough that Cato began to morph into what they wanted.
"This is weird though, normally Luc's doesn't get bothered when she shoots someone down." Dash expressed confused.
"Unless Cato took her down with him." Foxy whispered. The group looked back forth between the two strongest people in the group, who they now figured had destroyed each other. The survival of the group depended on the two of them and they all silently prayed that things would end up working out.
The following two days Luctra walked with the group in a daze. Cato had shattered her world that night and she had stayed standing in the same spot Cato had left her at trying to figure out what the hell had just happened. She was at first in complete disagreement with his last comment. Of course she gave him a chance! She had let him kiss her twice. Well he had to pin her down for one and the second was basically the retaliation after she basically told that he was a shitty lover; his way of defending himself against what was a pretty stupid accusation on her part. Cato was way to good of a kisser to be bad in bed.
The following days she started going over every moment she had spent with Cato from the silent stare down in the training centre to the last argument a few nights ago. When he had thrown the spear right past her, and then gotten right up in her personal space she knew deep down his confidence appealed to her. He wasn't intimated by her strength; on the contrary, he made her feel more like a woman then she had ever felt before as he stared her down. She knew he was a danger to her right from that moment. After the training center encounter she assumed the worst about him, because she knew she had his attention on some level.
Then came the elevator. Where all their problems had started, and like he said it put them both in the dark about each other. The way he had treated her, controlled her, made her heart race, it made her all the more scared of him. He was a dangerous killer and attractive and that meant he could try to hurt, in both a physical and an emotional way. And she had thought he was going to do that by going after Dash. In the elevator that night she had assumed he knew she was talking about Dash since it would make sense, Dash was her weakness in the Hunger Games. She had never allowed a guy that intimately close to her, and Cato had over powered her sense and body, but she knew now knew how gentle he was with her compared to what he was actually capable of.
Then their time in the cave had followed. It had been a charged situation both emotionally and physically for both of them. She thought she was with a mindless killer who was after someone she loved. He thought he was with a girl that had chosen another boy over him was continually rubbing that fact in his face. He had forced her to clean her leg, and been so gentle and considerate of her injury while he cleaned it out. Cato tended to communicate physically which explained the harsh treatment when he thought she was trying to escape, which she guessed was because he thought she was trying to get to Thresh since he thought she was aligned with Thresh. He had calmed down when he realized he had scared her. He had even backed down completely when he thought she was responding to him and his touch while he healed her leg. She hadn't helped on that one with how turned on she got and not knowing how to hide it. He became even what she would consider affectionate towards her, covering her with the blanket and leaving so she could sleep, then wanting her to come with him so he could keep her close, but she had knocked him out at the first sign of trouble. The last part wasn't so bad since it was when she was still in the dark and thought she had to protect Dash from him.
Then he had found her again, though she still didn't know how he knew that she was ther. He had seen her when she was physically injured and exhausted. He could have just taken her right there but he understood then why she was with Dash. That she would fight to stay with Dash and resent him if he took her away. Looking at it now he probably left her his shirt more as a sign of peace then a demand she come to him. If he had wanted only to posses her for his ego's sake, he would have just taken her kicking and screaming because he knew in her condition she wouldn't have been able to fight back. No he had wanted her to come freely to him without fear.
Then there were the Tracker Jackers stingers. She had done what she did because she knew he would never know. She could instigate the intimate contact with him that she desperately wanted to do. She was terrified of the consequences of trying to do that when he was awake, but thinking back to their two kisses she had been fine with them because he had instigated them. He had taken them and therefore she hadn't risked anything. He wouldn't know that she had wanted them also. She could blame kissing him back on her hormones, but then she had been worried if he liked them. Those fears were partly because of her inexperience, and partly because she didn't want Cato to know that she had felt something for him, that he had a power over her, that she wanted him.
And then she was forced to go to him, beg him for the help only he could give her. But a part of her had known it was safe to go, that he would give her what she needed if she offered herself, because he wanted her, and not her life. He now knew how terrifying it was for her. Not because he was an incredible killer but because he was everything she thought would destroy her. He was a strong, handsome, experienced and confident man. He had comforted her twice, once when she felt the world of the Hunger Games for the first time and then with her hands. He had been so tender with her. He had given her the means to save Rue and then let her off the hook for it. Even for Cato that would be a lot of faking to do just for laugh. The game was over, he had set her free from her deal and he was upset with her about how she had treated him. He had a temper but she had matched it for the most part, he did scare her but considering their last kiss she realized that fear had disappeared. She knew then that she had always been free to challenge him and she did just that.
So she challenged him, pushed his buttons in a way that she knew he would give her a reason to hate him, to make her right. But he was so gentle with her compared to what she did to him when they argued. Hell she had tried to knee him in the groin, smashed him over the head twice with a blunt object, punched him in the face at the stream, beat on his chest after that, and even tried to bite him, but he had never retaliated on that, not once. She made him turn his temper against her, but he had tried to distance himself from her to stop it. He even cooled off when she needed him to take out her Tracker because she was afraid to. Before that he came to her rescue because he knew she was worried about hurting Dash, and he didn't want her to face the guilt or pain it did hurt him. Even in his most angry state he was worried about her. She had manipulated his dislike of Thresh to hurt him and she knew it. It had as much to do with keeping Cato away as it did with wanting him to hate her.
What the last straw had been that made him vent it all out on her she would never know, there were just too many possibilities. All the signs of jealousy had been there and she had exploited them to protect herself. Convincing herself that his jealously was actually a deeper more sinister need to destroy her. Before he had kissed her both times she had been pushing him to get angry, but instead he had physically tried to communicate that he wanted her. He wasn't trying to break her; he was trying to break through to her.
And he had, Luctra just hoped it wasn't too late and that he would understand. He needed to know that she knew he was right, and that she hadn't given him a chance. But maybe she could try to give him one?
"We'll stop here for the night." Cato's dead voice brought her back to earth. She was in the middle of the group, probably because everyone who had tried to talk to her had been met by silence. They were probably worried she would get lost if she fell behind everyone. Luctra looked up and saw Katniss next to Cato. Luctra guessed that since she was out of it Katniss had stepped up and was taking charge till Luctra could get back into it.
"The stream gets a bit wider about 10 minutes that way." Katniss told everyone pointing to her right. Katniss had taken on role as scout for the group because it was her element. Luctra thought it had been funny when Katniss had walked up to her, declared that and then walked away without waiting for a reply. Now that was the Girl on Fire Luctra mused.
Luctra was getting a sleeping roll ready when she thought of something, or better yet someone, that could help her figure out how to bring Cato around. It would be useless to try and talk with him, even apologize if he was shut off. Luctra knew how to deal with dark Cato, mad Cato, pissed off Cato, turned on Cato, animal Cato and snuggly Cato. She had no clue how to deal with an emotionally dead Cato. She needed help from someone who knew how to draw someone out.
"President Snow." The Captian of the Capitol Defence called once he was admitted to the President's office. President Snow laid his hands on his desk and stared down the Captain. The Captain swallowed nervously.
"Captain, explain to me how a group of Tributes, locked inside the arena with nothing but the supplies we gave them have managed to bring down the shield?" President Snow asked deadly calm.
"We don't know. But we are sending The Capitol Squadron into the arena as we speak. They have tracker locators and will find them. What do you want done with the Tributes once they are captured?" The Captain asked. President Snow looked thoughtful for a moment.
"Kill them all except her. I want you to bring me the 'Goddess of the Games' from District 4." President Snow ordered him. The Captain saluted and left to go join the team leaving for the arena. He would bring this 'Goddess of the Games' to the Capitol and break her before all of Panem. He just had to figure out the best way to go about breaking her.
"Hey Foxy can I bug you?" Luctra asked walking up to her as Foxy set out her own sleeping roll. Foxy looked up surprised. Luctra had been dead to the world for a while, and with Cato out of it too the group was worried things would never get fixed. Foxy took this as a good sign that Luctra had figured something out.
"Yeah sure let's fill some canteens." Foxy said. The girls grabbed the canteens and headed to the stream Katniss had mentioned. They were silent as they walked. Foxy knew that Luctra would talk when she was ready. At the water Luctra started talking.
"How did you bring Marvel, like, back to life after the stunt Glimmer pulled?" Luctra asked her brow furrowed as she filled a canteen. Foxy wasn't surprised by the question.
FLASHBACK
"Marvel wait up!" Foxy called. Marvel had made it around the back of the Cornucopia had half way to the woods before Foxy had caught up with him. He stopped when he heard her but didn't move. Foxy ran up to him and got in front of him. He looked so sad she thought.
"Hey what Glimmer did was really awful." Foxy told him. Marvel's eyes were glazed over. Foxy knew he was still living in the memory and pain of that moment.
"You missed Clove, Luctra and Katniss talking about turning Glimmer into one of those raccoon hats." Foxy laughed. She knew how much Marvel liked his raccoon jokes. She got no reaction.
She knew she needed to pull him out, just like he had pulled her out of her shyness. She stood in front of him for a good 10 minutes trying to work out a plan in her head.
"You know what I got from that story?" She asked him. He didn't react. "I wondered what you looked like all dressed up in a cute suit." His eyes came to life a little. She was on the right track.
"Of course seeing you after the river party was great, but there's something about a guy dressed up all classy that just makes a girl weak." She giggled. Marvel turned his face to her still a small amount of life back in his eyes.
"If I had been at that party you would have probably ended up carrying me, not coats, because I would have been so weak at the knees seeing you looking so great." She smiled. It was working; he corners of his mouth were starting to turn up. She just needed that one last push. Lifting her fingers to the zipper of her jacket Foxy pulled it down and opened her coat. Pulling it off her body she threw it as far to the side as she could and stood in front of Marvel.
"Also I really don't need to wear coats, and purses are just a useless accessory. I stuff everything in my shirt when I got out." She grinned. Marvel smiled at her a heartfelt smile. Marvel's smile warmed Foxy to her toes. She threw her arms around his neck and hugged him. It seemed that was the last step because Marvel grabbed her around the waist and spun her in a circle laughing like the happy Marvel she liked. When he put her back on the ground he was smiling like a lunatic at her.
"You okay now?" Foxy asked seriously. Marvel leaned down and placed a light quick kiss on her lips. Now Foxy was grinning like a lunatic. It was her first kiss and it was perfect.
"Never better." Marvel told her adoringly.
"Look I'm sorry about the whole 'killer' problem. I just don't do well with violence. It's not you personally, it's just I know some people enjoyed the killing and that freaks me out." Foxy told him honestly as Marvel held her. Marvel rested his forehead against hers, her arms around his neck, his around her waist.
"I am a Career, I know how to kill and I killed kids. I couldn't let myself feel the weight of that Foxy. I wanted to go home." Marvel whispered sadly. Foxy nudged his face with hers so he would look at her.
"We all have a chance to get home now. And like Luctra said everything else is in the past. I won't judge you on how you survived, because that's what it was. Surviving." Foxy affirmed. Marvel's eyes sparkled as he looked into hers eyes.
"You're pretty smart." Marvel grinned.
"Well one of us has to be." Foxy teased. Marvel raised a challenging eyebrow. Foxy grinned and tried to move out of Marvel's arms. It didn't work and Marvel spent the next 20 minutes mercilessly tickling Foxy.
END FLASHBACK
"By reminding him someone cared." Foxy said grinning at the memory. Luctra stopped filling the canteen in her hands. She sat back and stared at Foxy. "It's not as easy as it sounds." Foxy continued seeing the look on Luctra's face.
"It never is." Luctra bemoaned and started filling again.
"It took me a while to crack through, but since we had talked all night during the storm I knew I could get through if I persisted." Foxy smiled remembering that night.
"You didn't get frustrated or angry, and like argue?" Luctra asked. Foxy sent her a soft smile.
"We're not you and Cato." Foxy teased. Luctra wasn't even surprised that Foxy knew. The way her and Cato had been acting it was obvious that something happened between the two of them. Also the fact that Foxy was a GENIUS didn't hurt either.
"The group would never survive with more than one of us." Luctra joked. Talking with Foxy was making her feel better.
"Probably not." Foxy laughed. She wasn't going to bring up that the group had pretty much figured the Cato/Luctra saga while they were in zombie land. Rue and Dash shedding a lot more light on the situation. "Look I don't know either of you that well, but from what I have heard from Marvel and seen for myself that boy cares about you."
"What do you mean 'heard from Marvel'?" Luctra questioned.
"Marvel may be a dork but he's got eyes like a hawk. He told me he first clued in when he saw the look of fear run over Cato's face when you dove off the cliff, after that he saw how Cato would react when you were around Thresh, how Cato would smile when you smiled and how eager he was to scramble over the cargo bins to get to the side you were on." Foxy recounted. Luctra hadn't paid attention to those things, some because she wouldn't have seen them and others because she didn't want to know.
"The hard thing is that as protective as I am, it made me lock out people that could make me vulnerable. Therefore I really don't trust certain people, and that leaves me with a lot of baggage." Luctra confessed sadly. Foxy reached out and put a hand on Luctra's shoulder.
"Cato is a Career Tribute, I'm pretty sure he has baggage too." Foxy said. Luctra thought back to what Cato told her about his brother. "As for the rest, your one of the strongest people I have ever seen, and I haven't even seen some of the shit you pulled during the games to save Rue and Dash." Foxy laughed as Luctra grinned at the sorta compliment.
"With Marvel I just had to push the right 'good' button to get him back." Foxy finished going back to filling the canteens with a grin on her face. Luctra considered what Foxy was saying. Up to this point she had been pushing all the wrong buttons on Cato in order to make him back off of her. It was time she pushed one that brought him to her. She started to feel the same confidence and will that she had felt when she decided to kiss Cato's neck when he was hallucinating.
"Also physical contact does hurt. Guys are like puppies, they'll sulk all they want but the minute you put a finger on them they turn to putty." Foxy smirked. Luctra laughed out loud at that and it felt good. She would bet Foxy had no idea that she and Cato were better physical communicators then verbal, for the most part.
AN: Was that good Foxy/Marvel time? They are a very different couple then Cato/Luctra, more gentle. Would you like me to include Peeta/Katniss time too? Clove's past will be entering the picture too, in order to understand Cato more. And yes I will be including things from the Academy.
