I sat down and thought for a moment. That girl. I never thought she possibly could be that nice. And I realized, I never found that spark with Katniss. Even when we were acting. I never did. I tried, but I never could. And then it just clicked inside of me. Something I could never ever have thought of before. I was in love with the girl from 2.
Clove's POV
This is turning into a full-scale fight. Do you want to know what about? Who's going with who into the tents. Yep. Little ridiculous, right? First Glimmer said she wanted to be with Cato and I said that it was crazy and then she said that I was just saying that because I was jealous that Cato liked her instead of me. Ridiculous, huh? I'M THE ONE WHO'S HAVING HIS KID! I guess it's a District 1 thing. And then Cato said that wasn't possible because I would have to buddy up with Marvel or Lover Boy and that I wouldn't be able to sleep like that. Well…I could manage to stay alive with Lover B-…..*sigh* Peeta. For some reason I just found myself attracted to him. His dirty blonde hair, muscles, OMG his muscles! I saw him throw a medicine ball at the Training Center. And his eyes. His beautiful, dark brown eyes that just penetrate you and send a warm feeling through-…Wait a minute! What am I saying? Cato's yelling brought me back down to Earth.
"NO! If I'm with Phoenix, then Clove won't let Marvel stay with her and then who's going to buddy up with her, Lover Boy? And then what?" and yada, yada, ya. As long as I'm not stuck with District 1 or Phoenix, I'm good to go. Eventually we decided to make it by District. Glimmer with Marvel, Cato with me, and Peeta with Phoenix. Is it wrong that I felt a little jealous about that?
Peeta's POV
Is it wrong that I felt jealous that Cato got with that girl from 2? I mean, it's not that I don't like Phoenix, she's okay. But…it was just…disappointing. After that was all settled, 2 claimed the biggest tent. Nobody argued with that. Then we gathered all the stuff from the Cornucopia, and put it in a little pyramid. The best stuff in the pyramid (medicine, food, supplies, etc.) and little stuff around it (backpacks, water bottles, empty iodine bottle we used, etc.). I saw the girl from 2 and the guy from 2 pocket some stuff. Probably extra food or something for when we get separated. I pocketed some medicine and iodine. Phoenix pocketed an extra harpoon gun ammo pack. Glimmer pulled out a couple extra arrows. Marvel took some extra spearheads. Guess we all had secrets. Especially me.
Clove's POV
"So now we're going night hunting." Cato announced. All of us cheered. Except Peeta. I can understand. He's from 12. He's not used to the violence of the Victors. I opened up my jacket to make sure all of my knives were in there. Cato grabbed his favorite sword. Marvel strapped 3 spears to his back. Glimmer slung on her bow and arrow (not that she would kill anything with it) and Phoenix grabbed her harpoon gun. Peeta borrowed a hand knife from me and put a pair of nun chucks inside his jacket. I put on my night vision sunglasses and so did Cato. The others got pretty upset but we told them to get flashlights instead or something. So we took off. We walked into the deeper part of the forest and pretty soon, we saw smoke and a fire. Are you kidding me? A fire?! That's like setting off fireworks and screaming out loud, "HEY! COME AND GET ME!" in the Hunger Games. Wow. Cato saw it first, so he claimed it. As we crept closer, we saw the girl from 8 crouched down next to a fire, rubbing her hands. And then we walked out of the shadows. She gasped.
"Hiya." I said. Cato walked closer, brandishing his sword. "N-n-n-no! P-p-p-p-p-p-please…Don't kill me!" she sobbed. Cato smiled. "Too late." She stood up and ran backwards, but tripped over a tree root. , landing on her back. Cato took that moment to stick the knife in her chest. He pulled it out and we walked to the right, laughing. Glimmer was close to Cato, doing an impression of the girl. "Oh, no! PLEASE don't kill me! No!" she said in a desperate voice. Cato laughed as he said, "That's actually a pretty good impression." And then Marvel HAD to ruin Cato's 25% good impression on him by saying, "Wait, shouldn't we have heard a cannon by now?"
"We probably missed it. She's dead, though." Cato replied.
"How do you know?"
"I SAW where I stuck her. Right in the chest!"
"Then why haven't we heard a cannon?"
"We probably missed it!" Even though I could see Marvel's point, I took Cato's side, as well as Peeta. Glimmer and Phoenix sided with Marvel. After a few minutes of arguing, Peeta stepped forward and said, "Just stop! I'll go back and make sure she's dead. Just wait here." And with that, he took off. Glimmer whispered to Cato, "Why can't we just get rid of him yet?" "He's our best chance of finding her!" he answered. I remained silent. Peeta came back as our convo faded.
"Was she dead?" Marvel asked.
"No. But she is now." He replied. Sure enough, the cannon sounded. BOOM!
"Come on then. Let's go." Marvel took the lead. Two seconds later, he crashed into a tree. Cato snorted and took the lead once more. Glimmer stood beside Marvel, asking if he was okay, and that it was dark and nobody could blame him, blah, blah, blah. I just couldn't shake off the fact, that even if I sacrifice myself to win, that I would also do that for Peeta. And then it just clicked inside of me. Something I never ever could have thought of before. I was in love with the boy from 12.
