Cato's POV
"Listen. Don't under estimate her! I was under estimated and look what happened. You are going to be jut like Tiger."Talon snapped at me.
"Tiger?' I laughed.
"You dumb ass." Clove slapped me."You just can't take advice. Your the first one I kill."
"Unless I get to you first, princess." I snapped back. My cheek was hurting. She slapped me hard.
"Fuck you Cato."
"Princess, those are some big words."
"Don't think I can handle them." She grabbed a knife and threw it past my face.
"Missed princess."
"On purpose!"
"I can do that too." I picked up a knife and threw it at the board. Mine wasn't nearly as accurate as hers but it still hit the board just below the circle.
"Learn to throw."
"You haven't seen me with a will, right before it cuts your head off."
"Fuck you Cato."
"What time bitch" Colin grabbed me and held me back. I was playing Clove like a violin. And I broke all the strings so easily. Talon was holding her back. She reached into her jacket and pulled out another knife. This time, if she had the chance, she was aiming for my head. Luckily Talon took it from her. Talon took her to her car.I cracked my neck and Colin patted me on the back.
Talon came back and she sapped at me once again. "Listen, if you want to be like my partner, Tiger, go ahead and die. I guess I will be seeing Clove again. If you want to be in this train again, alive, you go apologize to her. I don't want you killing one another so I'll have to watch. For two people who have so much in common I am surprised you don't get along."
I walked to her bedroom while thinking we have noting in common. I knocked on the door. "Clove, let me in."
"Don't you mean princess." She answered immediately.
"I'm sorry. I need to talk to let me in."
Clove let me in. I slammed the door in Talon's face. I opened it up again and said "Don't ease drop." And then slammed it once more. I heard her leave the car."Give me the knives."
" should. What if you try to kill me?" she replied, hands crossed over her chest.
"Just do it. I won't kill you. I'm here to make an alliance and apologize. I've been a jerk and I realize that you have a lot of skills. Since I can't be friends with you, I just want an alliance. You are good."
"I appreciate apology."
"Now give me the knives." She handed me a total of 8. I knew she had more. She handed me two more.
"All I got." I knew she'd think I was a pervert for this but it's life or death here. I reached down her shirt and pulled out 4 more knives."Perv." She laughed.
"I am not in the mood to get stabbed today."
On her table she had a milkshake and she took the two cherries. I looked at her weird. "What?"
"You don't like cherries." I asked.
"No... My mom...she died from eating a cherry."
"Oh. I'm sorry. Did she sallow the pit?"
"No. Some one poisoned I'm just scared to eat one."
"Have you ever tried one?"
"No."
"They are great. I'm going to eat this one. If I don't die, will you eat the other one?"
"Alright, I guess."
I popped it in my mouth. I spit out the pit in my hands. She laughed and put the cherry in her mouth carefully. She held the stem outside her mouth. I saw her chew. After awhile I thought she was going to swallow the pit so I pulled on the stem and took it out of her mouth. She giggled."Was it good?"
"It was great." She took a sip of her milkshake.
Clove's POV
After trying my first cherry I wanted more. I would never of tried it if it wasn't for Cato. I took a sip of my milkshake and I realized that Cato was starring at it. Trying to be friendly because he could save my life I offer him some."Want a sip?"
"What flavor?" he replied.
"Don't think I'm weird but, it's vanilla,chocolate and a small amount of strawberry and raspberry.""
"You are kidding right?"
"Nope."
"I always get that at the bakery."
"Me too! Everyone thinks I am so weird."
"Nothing weird about that." He reached over and took a sip. He took a large amount so eventually I took it from him. I sipped and he started laughing.
"What?" I ask.
"Oh nothing." He took it back and took another sip. I started laughing because he had a milkshake mustache. We were laughing together when he suddenly stopped. He had a guilty look on his face.
"What?" I asked.
"Nothing." he replied.
"You look guilty."
"I think I just made a friend." He looked me in the eyes, still with the mustache on his face and leaned in to kiss me. I resisted for a second but I couldn't help it. I leaned it. We sat there. Him, his arms around me, one in my hair. Me, one hand in is hair the other on his chest. I could feel his muscles. His lips were so smooth. I was so taken over. I wasn't thinking about anything. That was until Harley knocked on the door.
Cato's POV
My plan was working quite well. She thinks I like her or something. Little does she know this is just a strategy. One less person I have to worry about in the the heck? Why not really confirm her loyalty?He let out an "Oh." Clove didn't look like she knew he was there. I picked up a pillow and threw it at him.
"Owwww!" He screamed. God his voice annoyed me. Clove pulled away at the sound of his screech. Now I really hate him.
'Fuck Harley. You piss me off so much." Clove pulled my sleeve and I turned to find Harley crying."What are you fucking crying about? I threw a pillow at you. God damn it grow a pair Harley! We are the ones about to go risk our lives here!" He ran out crying.
A few moments later Talon appeared."God damn it Cato. You aren't the brightest. You are lucky he is so nice. He just caught you lip locked with Clove over her. He could ruin your reputation as a brutal killer."
I didn't realize I already had the reputation."Sorry he just surprised me. He ruined the moment."
"Well you guys certainly made up fast. I guess I have lovers on my hands now. All I wanted was an alliance. Not even, I just didn't want to her your arguing anymore. Anyway wipe your faces off and be at the dinner car in Clove and Lover Boy"
I wiped off my face and clenched my fists. She did not just call me lover boy. I stood up an opened my mouth. Clove stood up too. She covered my mouth and sat me back down on her bed."Chill Cocky Prince."
"Excuse me." I snapped back at her.
" If i'm a princess and icy and I'm called Ice Princess. You are cocky and a prince so you are a Cocky Prince."
I stood up and left. I slammed the door behind me. I went down to the dinner car early. I sat down. Our mentors and Harley showed up and sat down. Talon looked at me.
"Sorry Harley." I said sarcastically. I began eating a hamburger.
"Oh it's ok! I am so happy you and Clove are together." Harley replied right when Clove walked in. She was wearing a beautiful dress. She looked stunning. I dropped my hamburger on the floor.
"Holy shit." I let out.
"Oh my you look gorgeous girly! Congrats on your new boyfriend." Harley screamed.
"He's not my boyfriend." She look fairly pissed. She sat down next to me and I shook my head. She glanced over at me and gave me a fake smile.
"Cato can you reframe from cussing for an hour please." Talon laughed.
"Not possible" Clove joined in.
"I can too!" I snapped.
"Chill Cato."
"I will not chill. You guys do not know what I am capable of. Stop pissing me off. You don't want to learn"
"Cato."
"Don't you Cato me." I snapped at Clove"No princess can control me."
Now she was pissed. She grabbed a knife. She just missed my finger. She hit the table directly in between into thumb and index got up and left.
