My own OC and Cato from the Hunger Games
Been so long since I updated this, so here is one!
Chapter 21:
I chuckle as Cato leaves the bathroom; he sends me a small wink as he closed the door.
I make my way downstairs and see Lisa sitting on the couch she sends me a small smile. "Sorry about before… I should have knocked…" She blushed. I shrug, "Its fine… we weren't doing anything." "Except swallowing each others tongues." Lisa smirks. I shake my head sitting down on the couch.
I turn my head to the hallway where I hear yelling. Louise soon comes out running a hand through his hair, he spots me on the couch and frowns shaking his head slowly walking over to Lisa and sitting down. I keep my eyes drilled on the door, which Louise came out of. Soon after a few minutes the door is swung open, Cato walks out he places the phone on the counter in the living room.
He walks over to me grabbing my chin and planting a heated kiss on my lips, before walking away. "Cato." Im breathless, I stand walking over to him placing my hand on his shoulder. He stays turned away from me. "Im so sorry… oh Mel im so so sorry." He mumbled, I hug him from behind. "Its not your fault. Please don't blame yourself." I say into his shirt. He takes a deep breath before unwrapping my arms from around his waist.
"My father is coming to pick you up later…" He frowns, "I have to go… I have to go see him…" I nod caressing his smooth cheek taking in his god like features. He smiles slightly at me leaning down and kissing my lips softly.
I watch from the window as he drives away.
I looked over at the clock, '4:00PM' I cross my arms and lean back on the couch. Lisa looks up from her book and smiles at me, "When did Cato say his father was coming?" I shrug, "He didn't say…" Lisa nods going back to her book, placing his head back onto Louise shoulder.
I'm awaken from my wandering thoughts by the door being flung open, Cato walks slowly his father following behind him in a rather nice black suit. "Why hello my beautiful Mellissa." He smiles at me. I look away from him and search Cato's face for some sort of emotion but he is blank. He walks slowly over to me and helps me off the couch, handing me my Jacket and giving my hand a reassuring squeeze.
"Lets go." Cato's father grabs my shoulder steering my out of door. Cato frowns and I swear I have tears forming in my eyes. He meets my eyes and closes his eyes before opening them again. His father clears his throat and I take a step forward.
Cato's car is parked beside a black SUV its windows blacked out. The door is opened for me and I freeze, Cato's father steps inside and waits patiently for me. I turn around and watch Cato from the open door to the house. I take a deep breath knowing he can see fear written all over my face.
Cato clenches his fists before storming out of the house, I can hear his father yelling at him to go back inside. He stalks over to me holding my face in his large hands and leaning close to me, our lips brush and I let a tear fall. He pulls away leaning his forehead against mine. "Im so sorry." He whispers and I nod, "Ill be okay… ill be okay right?"
I feel someone grab my shoulder and turn around giving Cato a small smile and step into the SUV. The door being closed and the car takes off down the road. I look back through the rear window and watch as Cato's figure gets smaller and smaller as we drive away.
"Everything will be fine… you just have to do this one thing and no one will bother you two again." Cato's father explains. I nod looking down at my hands. "We originally planned this wasn't going to happen… but my son doesn't hide his feelings very well around certain people and well look what his feeling got us into. Lucky for you I know how to settle things."
I frowned looking up to meet Cato's fathers eyes, "What do you mean?"
"Well my dear child, we are driving to… well someone paid me a great deal of money to do something to you."
"Cato explained it to me…" I state, receiving a chuckle from his father.
