Authors Note: I would like to thank the four people that did review I really appreciate it. Now I know I said that I wasn't going to update until 30 reviews but I really don't see that happening any time soon so I might as well update now. This chapter is going to be an extra-long chapter. A lot is going to happen so with that being said after this chapter I will not review until I have 40 reviews. Just putting that out there. But here you go… Chapter 6. CATOs POV with a little twist near the end.

The next day…

I wake up to the smell of pancakes and bacon, I get up and go into the kitchen and see Katniss in her own little world cooking away. I also see that she changed into one of my t-shirts and since I'm way bigger than her it fits her like a night gown ending right above her knee, she looks sexy as hell. I walk up behind her and wrap my arms around her waist; she jumps for a sec but immediately relaxes and leans back into me.

"Someone's awake." She turns around smiling up at me.

"Well when you have a gorgeous girl cooking in your kitchen it's very difficult to stay asleep." I smirk looking down at her.

"I saw you sleeping on the couch, why didn't you just come up and lay down with me." She asks. I have one of two choices… lie and say that I fell asleep watching TV or be honest. I eventually decided that she has had enough of people lying to her, so I go with the truth.

"Well you looked so peaceful and happy I didn't want to disturb you and I just didn't want to wake up and think that I took advantage of you. If we are going to do this I want to go slow, only because you've been through a lot and I don't want to push you into anything."

She looks up at me and I can't read her eyes like I normally and for the first time, I'm actually scared. But I am quickly broken out of my thoughts but her lips crashing on mine, I immediately kiss her back. When she pulls back I give her a confused look. She just chuckles and pecks me one my lips one more time.

"Thank you." She finally says.

Later that day.

Katniss went back to her house to get changed even though I persisted that she looked just fine with just my t-shirt on. When she finally went home after and insane make out session, I took the time to clean up my house and I make a phone call.

"Hello. PBs ring jewelry, this is Megan speaking how may I help you."

"Yes. This is Cato Ludwig, I was the one who called this morning and I wanted to know when I could pick up my order."

"Ah yes. Mr. Ludwig, whenever you want to that's fine."

"Alright. Thank you."

"Anytime Mr. Ludwig. Have a nice day."

I hang up the phone after making a couple more phone calls and get in the shower then get dressed and ready for tonight. I text Katniss and tell her to meet me on the beach at 7:00 and that I'll be waiting for her on the boardwalk.

I get to the beach at 6:30 and start setting up what I have planned. I bought out the whole beach until 10, I didn't even know you could buy out a beach, but I guess being a big, muscular guy has its perks. I wait on the boardwalk with a rose in my hand waiting for Katniss to arrive. I see her pull out and she gets out and walks over too me with wide eyes.

"W-what is all this." She stammers.

"Well beautiful." I push a stray hair behind her ear. "This is all for you."

"You planned all this for me?" She says shocked.

"Of course." I grab her hand and pull her close. "You're mine to spoil beautiful, don't ever think different." I kiss her lightly and guide to the picnic that I have laid out on the beach.

"Cato… This is wonderful, but this is too much. How can I ever repay you-"I cut her off with a kiss and lean back and look her straight in the eyes.

"Stop. It's never too much when it comes to you." I say sternly. My demeanor immediately softens when I think that she understands that I love her and want to do this for her. "So my dear, eat away."

We eat, talk and laugh for most of the part and I can't remember a time when I was happier, I look at the sky and see that the sun is almost setting and I think to myself that it's almost time. I get up and pull her up with me lightly and pick her up bridal style despite her whining for me to put her down. I go into the water until it's up to my knees and set her down.

"Cato!" She wails and hit my arm. "Why are we in the water, its freezing."

"I have something very important to tell you but first." I reach in my pocket and pull out the necklace with the ring on it and put it around her neck. She looks at it almost as if this was all a dream and she's waiting to wake up. I take her hands.

"This is not an engagement ring, it's simply an I love you ring. I had it engraved so It says 'No matter what, I'll always love you. Ill scream it from the roof tops until I'm blue.' All I ask is that you wear this all the time.."

She looks star stuck and looks at the ring around her diamond necklace.

"I promise I'll wear this, but there's a slash after 'blue', is there something I'm not getting." I smile at her cluelessness.

"No love. There is something else that goes with this, but that's for me to know and for you not to worry your pretty little head about, at least not yet." I kiss her nose.

"So tell me again why are we in the water?" I spin her around and tell her too look down and I am pleased when I hear her gasp at the sight.

KATNISS POV

I don't know what to say, what you say. Saying thank you just doesn't cut it. I can't believe he did this, I mean the ring is beyond amazing but this… this is astounding.

What I am staring at is a heart stone imbedded in the ocean ground underneath the water and it says: "I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close. I love you til the end of time Katniss. -Cato"

Tears stream down my face and I turn around and jump into his arms and he catches me and holds me up as I kiss him intently for what seems to be like hours, I keep questioning him on why me? Why did he choose to spend so much money on me of all people? All he says is "Because I love you"

As we walk back to the beach I look up to my amazing boyfriend and think about what an amazing first date I just had.

"You really know how to make a girl feel special." I say with true honestly.

"Only for you beautiful" I love it when he calls me that, it just sends chills down my spine. After we separate and I get in my car and drive home, I sit in my car for a while and just think about how when I was so down and so low that I found a ray of sun shine, a man who really cares that shouldn't have too, he is truly my hope.

I get out on my car and search in my purse for my keys, I don't know why girls carry these, they get so messy and I just hate it. Pockets are so much more convent. I finally get my keys out but end up dropping them, I sigh and pick them up only to notice a piece a paper sticking out of my door. I pick up the paper and at first I'm confused as to why someone would leave a note instead of call. I pick it up and open it and it reads:

You can't run Kitty-Kat you know I always find you. I'll see you soon.

I drop the note and instantly become paralyzed with fear, I don't need a signature to know who wrote it. No one ever calls me kitty-Kat, there's only one person that would call me that.

Marvel.

Authors Note: So… What do you guys think? You like my twists and turns. I hope you guys don't hate me for stopping there and having her world go from an 100 to a 0 but I had to do it, so that the rest of the story would add up. There wont be a lot of Marvel in this story he will probably only be in the next chapter and only partial mentioned in chapter 8. And as I want to remind you guys I will not update until I reach 40 reviews but I really want to thank all my reviewers I love you guys. And im thinking about having a contest and letting one of you guys pick a special scene that I will right in my story. I love you all. REVIEW!
