A/n Thank you so much for all the reviews!
I jumped up.
I screamed.
I punched a wall.
How the hell..
Why the hell..
He cannot love Katniss.
I love Katniss.
"CATO! CALM THE HELL DOWN!" Clove yelled.
She put her arms on my shoulders.
She pulled me down.
I was still breathing heavily through my nostrils.
"It is a god damn good thing that none of our trainers are in here."
"I hate him so much." I said through my teeth.
"Cato."
"What!" I snapped.
"How much do you love her?"
I slowed down my breathing.
"I truly don't know." I said.
"I can tell you."
She smiled.
A legitimate smile.
"Really? You can?"
"Yes. A lot. You love her so much that you left a hole in the wall when another guy admitted he loved her."
"Is there a pool here?"
"Way to change topics, Cato. OH MY GOD. You are scared of love because of your dad walking out."
"Yes. I am, okay? Now is there a pool?"
"Yeah. Above the penthouse."
"Thank you."
I walked out into the hall.
I went to the elevator and pressed the button.
"MANNERS!" I heard Effie Trinket yell.
"I DON'T CARE!" Katniss yelled in return.
I heard heels stomping up the stairs to the elevator.
She was crying.
"Kat." I said.
I put my arm on her shoulder.
"Oh Cato. How can I deal with this?"
"I don't know."
Ding!
The elevator was here.
We both walked in.
I hit the 'pool' button and hit the 'close immediately' button.
"And you didn't help either!"
She punched my arm.
When she drew her arm back, I could tell she was in pain.
"What?"
"'Especially when she's from another distract.' 'She's more than a girl'" she tried to mimic my voice.
"I was under pressure!"
Ding!
We made it to the pool.
"Cato. Why are we here?"
"To talk."
I started to unbutton my shirt.
"Cato?'
"I want to swim. I'm not going to swim in my suit."
She laughed.
A genuine laugh.
I'm going to miss times like these.
She looked at the pool.
"I want to, too. Help me out of the dress?"
I walked over to her.
"Just the dress, Cato. Don't get too excited."
I laughed.
I found the zipper and undid it half way.
"There, you can get the rest."
I turned my back to give her some privacy.
I flung my shirt off.
Soon afterwards my pants were off, too.
I turned around to make sure she was okay.
I gasped.
She was absolutely beautiful.
She was in a strapless nude bra with matching panties.
"Take a picture, it'll last longer."
She winked at me.
I grabbed her arm and pulled her closer to me.
"Is your hand okay? From punching me."
She nodded.
We were at the edge of the pool.
I pushed her in.
"CATO!" She screamed.
I couldn't help but laugh.
Her brown hair was dripping wet.
I was still at the edge.
Big mistake.
She grabbed my leg and pulled me in.
I pushed up into the top of the pool.
"I hate you."
"No you don't." She whispered.
She put her arms around me.
"You love me."
I started blushing.
"Awww. Look what I did."
I splashed water on her.
She squealed.
I pulled her in for another kiss.
She pulled away.
"You're going to kill Peeta the second we get into the arena, aren't you?"
"Yes."
She smiled.
Why would she smile at that?
"Good."
"Why?"
"Because it's not him who I love."
"What?"
She kissed me again.
"I have to go. Okay? See you tomorrow at breakfast."
She kissed me once more.
We both got out of the pool.
We found white towels.
We grabbed our clothes and went towards the elevator.
She pressed 'Penthouse."
I pressed '2'.
Ding!
The door opened.
"Goodbye Kat."
I kissed her nose.
She hugged me.
"I love you, Cato." she said with a smile on her face.
The door closed again.
Ding!
The door opened and I saw Clove.
"Get to bed, lover boy. We have a long day ahead."
I listened to her.
I flopped on my bed.
I couldn't help but smile.
Katniss loves me.
And that is all that matters.
