Hey! Sorry it's been so long. I was my birthday on Friday (I saw P!nk!) and I got 2 assignments. So I literally have 4 assignments due within the next two weeks, so I've got 4 all due within 3 weeks-ish. (yay...) I've written the next chapter which will be better. This was written in sorta a rush, but I've completely edited it (instead of doing my assignment). And so begins the 15th year of fangirling. Enjoy!xx


It's been about a month since I met Cato and the others. Just like that, they're the newest addition to our little-big group.

Tonight, Katniss is having a camping night.

In her bedroom.

Because it's "Too cold outside". No shit, sherlock,it's the middle of winter!

We kicked off the evening with several rounds of 'Just Dance 3'.We all had our moments, but absolutely nothing could top Glimmer and Gale dancing to the Bollywood song. Their lack of synchronisation had us in hysterics, and Fox actually needed her inhaler.

Eventually, we move on to Truth or Dare. Knowing our group, this will escalate quite quickly.

"Somebody grab a bottle!" Marvel takes a plastic coke bottle out of his bag.

"It's full." He says, "It won't spin properly.
"Chug it!" yells Gale, throwing it to me. I am known for my ability to down anything and everything.

"CHUG! CHUG! CHUG! CHUG!" The group chants as I skull it. While my head is tilted back, Cato (the idiot) tries to tickle my neck. I could hear the others warn him not to, but I end up snapping myselff upright and spitting the whole thing on his face and pants.

Well, he should have known. Once the poor dear is all cleaned up and we've emptied the bottle (in the sink this time), we reassemble in our circle in Katniss' living room.

"Spin it quick!" Shouts Fox

I lean in and give the bottle a whirl. It lands on Cato.

"Alright, Cato, truth or dare?" Asks Gale. Cato looks around the circle slowly, trying to figure out by the looks on our faces if he should pick truth and have to expose his soul, or dare and do something sexual. (Well, it is our group, after all.)

He breathes deeply. "I'm going to regret this, but...dare?"

Peeta has a look on his face that can only be described as pure joy.

"Cato. I dare you to...to...um... Dammit! I've had this for weeks now!" He puts his head in his hands and Katniss pats him on the head. "There, there pita bread."

"Cato, jump in the pool." Says Thresh with a wicked grin on his face

"What, now? Dude, it's the middle of fucking winter, are you cray?"

"Lets get cray!" Cracks Fox, pointing at my white ripped Forever 21 shirt with a cat wearing sunglasses, with the slogan on it. Honestly, I might as well live in it, because I wear it almost everywhere I won't get crucified for 'outfit repeating'.

"Seriously, get in. Then your nipples will freeze and I can cut them off and stick them on pikes as a warning to anyone who tries to mess with me" Thresh is madly obsessed with Game of Thrones and dismembering things.

"No. I won't do it. It's too cold, do you want me to die?" We all just look around at eachother and hold in laughter. "Fine." He gets up and walks towards the sliding glass doors. While the others run after him with their phones set to 'record', I'm running up the stairs looking for some towels. In my rush, I bump into none other than Mrs. Everdeen.

"Oh, Clove! I'm so sorry!"

"No, no, it's fine. Hey, Mrs. Everdeen, do you have a towel I could borrow?"

She pulls one out from the twisted bundle in her hand. "Thanks!" I yell over my shoulder.

I run outside just in time to see him bracing himself for the jump. He does a runner and canon bombs into the pool. When we see bubbles surfacing, we can only assume that he is screaming his lungs out. He literally claws his way to the surface, swearing like a fiend when he finally comes out. He arches his back and howls into the night. Thresh runs to help Cato, crying from laughing so hard.

"Let me help you, bro." Thresh barely manages to get out because he's still laughing. He holds his hand out to Cato.

"No, let me help you" Says Cato, as he takes Thresh's hand and pulls him in. I'm about to run back inside for another towel when I see none other than little Primrose Everdeen waiting there with one.

"Thanks, Prim."

"No worries," she grins, "I knew that was going to happen."

I wrap the towel around Cato and basically dry him. Fox comes out with a frown and two cups of hot chocolate.

"Cato, that wasn't very nice of you. Now my boyfriend's all wet."

There's a moment of silence before we burst out laughing at the implication of what Fox just said.

"Stop laughing! It isn't funny!" She scolds, despite barely stifling a laugh herself.

Once we get the boys inside and wrapped up, we begin the next round.


Next chapter will go into the second round! Getting a tiny glimpse of Clove's past (And I mean, tiny, but it'll all be worth it in the end)

I'll upload the next one in a few days.

Take care!
