Hey guys so here is chapter 3! I am having so much fun writing this story. I just burst with new ideas, and then I get like really excited.
Enjoy xoxo
"Cato?" she said stunned.
"Get in. We need to talk"
"Where's Kat?" she questioned.
"She called me last night and said I needed to pick you up"
"Of course she did" Clove mumbled under her breath as she crossed her arms over her chest.
"Common we need to talk"
"No we don't. And I don't need a ride I'd rather walk"
"You'll be late" he stated.
"I don't care" she said as she started to walk down the road. Cato driving slowly beside her.
"Common I want to apologize"
Clove groaned under her breath as she opened the door and jumped in.
"Thank you" Cato said as he put the car into drive and the took off down the road.
"So I wanted to apologize for what happened with the neck thing, the other day. I was being a jerk and trying to look cool, I'm sorry"
"You did it to look cool?" Clove said turning to look at him.
"Ya, trying to empress my friends"
"Men" Clove mumbled under her breath as she rolled her eyes.
"But hey, it did work!" he said laughing.
"What!" Clove yelled hitting him in the arm.
"Ya, all of my friends think I'm like this stud now, for doing that to you"
"Why me though?"
"Clove you do realize, your the most talked about girl with my friends right?"
"I am?" Clove said taken by surprise.
"Ya, all the guys say is about how hot and good looking you are. But how none of them get a chance with you"
"I'm hard to get" Clove said smirking.
"I could tell" Cato said turning to smile at her as they pulled into the parking lot.
"Have dinner with me tonight?" he said.
"Um no" Clove said as she grabbed her bag ready to get out of his car.
"Fine. Coffee at least, after school"
"Nope sorry" Clove said as she jumped out of his car and ran over to where the girls and Peeta were standing by the cars.
"I hate you so much right now" Clove said though gritted teeth as she stood beside Kat.
"Your welcome" she said smiling.
"I can't believe, he picked you up this morning" Glimmer said squealing.
"Control yourself" Clove said putting a hand up. "He just wanted to apologize for the neck thing"
"He wouldn't have to apologize if he did that to me" Jackie said smirking.
"Oh guys remember my party is tomorrow. Come all over so we can get ready together" Glimmer said smiling
"Yes finally some fun" Clove said as the bell rang.
They all got into the school and Clove realized what Cato had been talking about. All around guys whispered to their friends then smiled at her, or gave her a wink and a wave.
She was now the talk of the school because of what happened with Cato. Even though people didn't know how it had happened because it was the academy all they knew was Cato had scrapped his teeth down her neck, and the guys couldn't stop talking about her.
Clove today was actually looking forward to Math when the time came around. It was with Cato, but that was besides the point. And it didn't surprise her when he came into class and sat beside her, and started talking about there conversation that they had in the car.
"So what time do you wanna go for coffee?" he said smiling.
"I told you, I'm not going out with you" she said.
"Why?"
"You attitude, your too cocky and think your all that" she said turning to look at him.
"I'm trying to change that" he said as Clove looked into his eyes, and knew he was telling the truth. "But lets not count it as a date, we can call it getting to know each other. We barley know anything about each other"
"If I say yes, will you stop asking me?" she said giving him a look.
"Yes" he said smiling.
"Fine we can go for coffee after school, pick me up where Kat and Glimmers car's are"
"Okay" he said smiling as he turned back to the board smiling.
Clove and the girls headed for there cars as the day had ended.
"So what is everybody wearing tomorrow?" Kat said.
"I'm going with a hot pink dress" Glimmer said smiling.
"I'm thinking red" Kat chimed in. "What about you Jackie?"
"Well its between gold or deep blue"
"Blue goes better with your hair" Glimmer requested. "Clove?" she said looking over at her.
"I'm thinking black" she said. "And skimpy" she added
All the girls made a "ohhhhhh" sound as they got closer to there cars.
"So Kat I'm not going with you today" Clove said as they stopped at there cars and she turned around facing her.
"Why?"
"Because I'm going out for coffee... with Cato"
All of the girls mouths dropped.
"He's taking you out?!"
"Ya he wanted dinner, coffee was the compromise"
Just then Cato's car pulled up. And Clove headed for his car.
"Don't get pregnant!" Jackie yelled at her smiling as Clove jumped into his car.
As they pulled out of the parking lot girls gave her death looks from outside. Probably because she was in the car and they weren't, not like it was that big of a deal.
"So I was thinking for coffee we could go to Java? The one near the academy?" he asked as they headed onto the road.
"That's my favourite coffee place" Clove said looking up at him from her eyelashes.
"See we do have something in common" he said smiling at her.
The rest of the ride there they didn't say a word to each other. Clove just watched out the window as they drove. Cato turning to glance at her every so often.
Finally they arrived at the coffee joint. He opened the door for her and went in. Clove ordered a vanilla bean cinnamon latte, and Cato french roast coffee with milk and sugar. Once they got there drinks they sat down.
"So question time" he said as he took a sip of his drink.
"Okay shoot?" Clove said as she sipped her latte.
"What do your parents do?"
"Mom has her own printing company, the best in town. And my dad is the CEO of this big marketing company"
"Wow so you must be loaded?" he said.
"We are. Everybody in this town is rich. What about your parents?"
"My mom runs three beauty salons in town. And my dad is part of a shipping company. That's what moved us here, was his job"
"Pretty loaded too huh?" she said smiling raising her eyebrows.
"Yes, very much"
"Okay, how long have you and all your friends been friends?" he asked.
"Since like forever. We all meet when we started at the academy when we were about six, and we have just grown together"
"That's really sweet. Me on the other hand is just making friends"
"Doesn't seem like you have a problem with that" she said as she took another gulp of her hot coffee.
"Favourite colour?" she asked.
"Blue. You?"
"Black and red"
"You don't seem to be very dark to me?" he said a questioning look on his face.
"I'm different. I change all the time. I'm not like most people. I'm edgy but I'm girly too"
"Your rep at school would be girly"
"Everybody has a rep in high school, you just gotta make sure it's a good one" she said looking down at the coffee. "Okay you. Are you really trying to change your attitude? Because of what happened at the academy it wouldn't seem like it"
"Like I said in the car, I was being a jerk trying to impress my friends. I wasn't trying to make you hate me forever"
"Hate is a strong word, I prefer dislike"
"You dislike me?"
"Your growing on me" she said making a face like it was a bad thing. "So before I forget, Glimmers having a huge party at her house tomorrow, you wanna go?"
"Are you asking me as your date?" he said smirking.
"No" she said scowling at him. "I'm inviting you to come. Glimmers party are legendary, thought you would like to come"
"Ya sounds like fun. People today were taking about a party I just didn't know what they were taking about"
"Okay so ya they party starts at seven, so just show up whenever. And bring something to drink, or lots we always seem to run out"
"Okay" he said as he finished his coffee. "And your going?" as if it was even a question.
"Of course I'm going, I never miss these party's"
"And your wearing?" he said with a smirk.
"None of your business" she said.
The two of them talked for another hour. They laughed, scowled at each other and Clove blushed occasionally. 'Your supposed to not like him remember, just tolerate him' she would say to herself.
"Well I should get going, got homework to do and decide what to wear" Clove said as she stood up gathering her jacket and purse.
Cato drove her home, she even said thank you when he dropped her off. Clove walked into her house kicking off her heels that were now killing her feet. She padded into the kitchen. She saw her mom on the patio with a magazine.
"Hey mom" Clove said as she slid open the glass door leading outside as she stuck her head out.
"Hi honey. How was your day? And why are you late?" her mom said giving her a scowl.
"School was fine. I was out of coffee with a friend it was a last minute thing, I'm sorry"
"Its fine, just at least text me next time"
"Okay" Clove said as she went to go back inside before forgetting to ask. "Oh mom" she said as she stuck her head out the door again. "Glimmers having a party tomorrow, and I'll prob end up sleeping over. Is that okay?"
"Will there be drinking?" her mother said.
"Yes..." Clove said giving her mom a puppy dog look.
"Yes you can go. But watch how much you drink"
"Thanks mommy" she said before disappearing back into the house and into her room.
Next Night
"Is this dress tight enough?" Glimmer said as she looked herself over in the mirror. She was in a hot pink strapless dress that barley covered her butt.
"If it goes any tighter it will cut off your circulation" Kat said as she pulled up a red tank dress over her black thong and beige bra. "Can someone zip me up"
Jackie zipped it up her back. "There now you look awesome" she said looking at her. "But are you sure about the blue?"
Jackie was in a halter sparkly deep blue dress, just like the other girls it showed off to much cleavage and butt.
"Are you kidding?" Kat said making her twirl. "You look amazing, it fits your curves perfectly" Jackie twirled herself in the mirror with a smile.
"Ya I guess your right" she said as she grabbed her makeup bag off Glimmers bed and started pulling everything out. From eyelashes, to face and lips with brushes. "Clove babe you ready?" she yelled at the bathroom door.
The door slowly opened and out stepped Clove. She was in a tight black one shoulder dress. It cut low enough showing the boobs and high enough to show the butt. Kat's mouth dropped open.
"Is it okay?" Clove said turning.
"Okay? You look like a Victoria secret model!" Glimmer gushed. "When did those curves come in?"
"I've been working out" Clove said smiling.
"Well I'm gonna need that routine" Glimmer said as she plugged her curling iron in.
"So is Cato coming?" Kat said biting onto her lip.
"Yes..." Clove mumbled
"Well I can see the reason for the dress"
"The dress is not for him. I can act slutty if I want to"
"You act any sluttier and Cato's gonna put a dent in ya" Kat said laughing.
"Hey maybe you'll finally lose your v-card" Jackie said smirking.
Clove smacked both of there heads with her hands.
"Oww" they both said holding the back of there heads.
Clove just smiled as she started to apply her makeup. Foundation, powder, smoky eye, top and bottom eye liner, mascara then light lip stick. As all the other girls did.
"Clove your first" Glimmer said as she set up a chair with the curling iron. And one by one rotating, one would have makeup done then hair when finally all of them were ready.
"Shoes" Kat said as she pulled out a pair of bright red heels. They were about four inches. Glimmer slid on white six inch open toed, and Jackie with sliver six inch. Clove had one shear black six inch. She finally was the height of a normal person.
"Here" Glimmer said stooping the girls before they headed to go downstairs. She reached under her bed and pulled out a bottle of blue liquid with four shot glasses.
"Pre-game party" she said as she handed each one a shot glass and filled it.
"What is it?" Jackie asked.
"Blue vodka"
"Cheers" they all said raising there glasses in the air smiling before the shot it down there throat.
"Okay" Clove said as she slipped on her shoes. "Lets go" they all slipped on there shoes and headed downstairs.
The party was long going. Clove had already been hit on by several guys who were black out drunk. She headed out from that patio and into the house she slipped off her shoes and looked up just in time to come face to face with Cato.
"Am I late?" he said.
"Nope perfect timing" she said as she brushed the curls out of her face.
"I brought a drink" he said holding up rum. "Sorry it was all I could grab from my bar at home"
"Its perfect" she said. "May I?" she said pointing at the bottle.
"Go ahead" he said as he handed it to her.
Clove turned the top off the new bottle and pressed the bottle to her lips, she took a chug before pulling back handing the bottle back to him.
"Well, you sure can drink" he said steeping forward and sliding his arm along Clove's slim waist.
"Thanks, its a talent" she said.
"Nice dress" he said looking down."There's not much to it though"
"The less the better"
"Can I get a better look" he said as he stepped closer.
"I'm not that drunk" she said jumping back from him. "There's tons of girls dressed like me here. Go entertain yourself with them" she said before turning around and walked away from him.
She grabbed a bottle of Smirnoff that was sitting on the counter and drank from the bottle as she headed back outside to the crowd of people. Cato just stood there watching as she left with a smile.
Clove stumbled down the porch steeps with the bottle as she headed to the cabana where Jackie and Kat and Glimmer where.
Glimmer was on the couch making out with Marvel.
"Well doesn't look like there fighting any more" Clove said as she flopped on the couch beside Jackie.
"Well once she sobers up, they will be again. He's just taking advantage of the fact that she drunk"
"Where's Peeta?" Clove said as she took another swig.
"Went to grab more drinks. He should be back in a few minutes"
"God I need a smoke" Jackie said as she pulled out a pack from her bra, and a lighter.
"Can I have one too. Cato tried to get in my dress a few minutes ago"
Jackie gave her a cigarette and Clove lit it. The two of them took two long intakes before blowing it into the night sky.
"I need another drink" Kat wined. "I'm gonna go find Peeta" she said as she stood up and stumbled her way back into the house.
"Well I'm gonna be hungover tomorrow" Clove said as she took another puff then a swig.
"You and me both"
"So what are the odds if I throw myself at some guy, he's gonna take it?" Jackie said.
"In that dress pretty good"
"I need to pee" she said as she stumbled her way back into the house.
Clove just sat on the couch drinking the Smirnoff, smoking watching Glimmer and Marvel make out.
"Boo" said a voice behind her. Clove turned around to see Thresh.
"Hey..." she said stumbling with her words.
"Hey. Nice party you guys got going"
"Thanks. You been drinking?"
"Yep"
"You gonna be hungover tomorrow?"
"Yep"
"Cheers to that" she said holding up her bottle and clinking it with his beer can.
"So have you seen Jackie?" he said sitting beside her.
"She went back inside to pee" she said taking another puff
"Okay" Thresh said looking down.
"Wait you like her? Don't you?" Clove said smiling at him.
"Ya she's nice and sweet has a great humour. I don't even mind that she doesn't like berries"
"If you like her you should go after her. I think she could really use a relationship right now" she said nudging to the house
"You know what, your right" he said as he jumped up and spirited back into the house. Clove drank until the bottle was empty and then she passed out on the couch outside.
When Clove awoke it was four am, half of the people had gone home but the party was still going. Clove was still drunk as she stumbled her way back into the house and fell on the couch in the living room.
"Hey" Cato said as he dropped beside her.
"How are you?" Clove slurred.
"Have I ever told you are the most beautiful women in the world? It would be a honour to have your children" he said obviously being drunk himself.
Clove took a look at him before jumping on his lap and straddling him. She looked at him in the eye before crashing her lips onto his.
