A.N- don't own the Hunger Games.
Thanks to AutumnWillow18, Moganann0705, oliviahudson11 and the Giggling Gummy Bear for reviewing! I'm so glad you like it.
Clove was in the shower when the buzzer went off. She was about three months pregant now. The morning sickness was getting better and her doctor said that it should be over towards the end of this trimester. She had a slight bump but people couldn't tell she was pregnant. Life was going well for Clove. She had managed to find a fairly good doctor, Glimmer was being great, and she had barely thought of Cato.
After Cato had basically told her that he didn't want to be part of her life, Clove had fallen into a blank comatose stage. Hardly recognizing anything. She just sat on the threadbare sofa, blankly staring at the television. The same soap opera over and over again. It was like this for a month. Glimmer wasn't much help either. She just sat next to Clove saying "poor baby" over and over again, and keeping her on a steady diet of cookie dough ice cream. Thankfully Clove was one of those people who could eat anything and still stay thin.
It took three weeks before Clove snapped out of her depression. She was watching the same soap opera, the one which Finnick Odair was in, in this episode his primary love interest, Annie, was sitting around just waiting around for Finnick to come and rescue her from the evil president Snow. Then she relized that Finnick wasn't coming. So she took her own problems in hand and rescued herself. Clove took this episode to heart. She relized she didn't even want Cato in her life. She had managed on her own for 19 years, what was differnt now? She would be a kick butt mother, without Cato.
So here she was a week later, and every thing was going Clove. That is, until she got out of the shower and saw Cato.
Cato POV
Clove's roomate buzzed Cato up to the apartment. The roomate wasn't really what Cato had expected. She was the exact oppisite of Clove. While Clove had black, pin stright hair and gray eyes, Glimmer had blonde perfectly curled hair and blue eyes. Cato had to admit the girl was pretty, gorgeous, in fact, but in an artificial way, Clove's buety was more natural. However the blonde girl defiantly had more enthusiasm than Clove. Cato had barely knocked once before the blonde had thrown open the door and had practically pulled Cato through the door and pushed him on the sofa.
"OMG OMG I have Cato Bradley on my sofa! I'm so excited! Hold on I'm supposed to be mad at you. How could you do that to Clove? Shame on you abandoning her. You know after that lunch she just sat on the sofa eating ice cream and watching soap oprea! Clove was watching soap operas! I was convinced that the world was ending. Oh I'm Glimmer Delfinium. Clove's best friend, roomate, confadont, godmother to her future child, and I hate you."
Did the girl ever stop to breath? She just rambled on and on. She wasnt the kind of girl Cato had pegged to be Clove's best friend. She was like a southern Barbie doll. A dime a dozen in Hollywood.
"Well despite my hate for you, you are a guest in my wonderful abode. Can I get you some tea? I'm sure we have some cookies in this house somewhere." Glimmer went off rambling about cookies or something off into the kitchen. She came back a couple of minuets later with a big glass of amber liquid and a couple of cookies shaped like butterflies.
"Wow these look really nice, did you make them?"
"Yessirrebob! Just a little something I whipped them up this morning."
Cato bit into a yellow butterfly cookie, and instantly regreated it.
"Clove never let's me cook." Said Glimmer form the other side of the coach
Cato would of done the same thing. The cookies were absolutely the worst thing Cato had ever eaten. They were pretty on the outside but deeply disgusting in the inside. Cato took a big swig of tea to get the taste of the cookies out of his mouth. A second later he spat the tea out. It was even worse than the cookies. How do you manage to screw up iced tea? Cato wiped his mouth on his sleeve and sheepishly smiled at Glimmer. Where was Clove? He couldn't possiblely spend another second with this girl, she might try to posien him. A soft gasp came from the oppisite side of the room caused Cato to look over. There stood Clove.
A.N- in the next chapter I promise to have the Clove/Cato confrontation. Don't forget to give me your guesses for gender and names! I might not put up updates much this week. I'm not going to have constant acsess to WiFi. In the meanwhile check out my other Story. The Coals that Ignited the Flame. I'm also open to suggestions for other stories!
