Cato's POV
*Flashback*
I was walking the halls looking for Katniss. School ended a hour ago, where could she be? I know she didn't have another ride home.
"Cato baby." Glimmer purred running her hand up my bicep. I shuddered turning to glare at her.
"Where's Katniss?" I growled out. I swear if she touched her.
"Don't worry about that whore." She purred her other hand moving up my thigh.
"Don't fucking talk about my girlfriend like that." I spat. I turned hearing a whimper. The closet.
"Nope. Don't you dare." Glimmer said standing in the way of the door.
"Move or so help me I will grab you by your bleached hair and move you myself." I threatned.
"You wouldn't dare." She challenged. I grabbed a curl yanking it. She screeched loud and clear while scrambling to move.
When I opened the door. I wanted to scream. Katniss was laying in a pool of her own blood and there were cuts covering her body. They must have jumped her. Otherwise Glimmer wouldn't have had layed a hand on her.
"Baby... You'll be okay. Just hold on. Please." I tried to reassure her. Reassure me.
Everything was a blur from there. I remember sitting in the hospital. Marvel entering looking like a madman.
"Where is she?" He demanded. I stayed quiet. "Where the fuck is my little sister?" He repeated slowly.
"I'm not sure." I say quietly. I wanted to curl up and die.
"Get up you dick. This is your fault." I let Marvel pull me to the receptionist.
"What room is Katniss Steel in?" Marvel demanded the lady who looked rather annoyed.
"Family only." She said plainly.
"I AM her family you dipshit." Finnick said irritated.
"Room 204."
"Cato..." Katniss trailed off.
"I'm so sorry. Marvel was right this is my fault." I said tugging at my hair.
"I can't do this anymore. I'm sorry." She said.
"Katniss." Her name tasted sour on my tounge. No longer mines to say...
Oh the irony of choking on a lifesaver. After that night I never saw her. Until now. Marvel got her situated to leave. This time, she didn't plan on coming back and I was left to my own devices.
Suddenly she's back and I am soo screwed. All this time I was left wondering if she was okay. I couldn't eat. In fact this was eating me. She's perfectly fine. Been perfectly fine. Without me and it's slowly killing me. Katniss Steel will be the death of me.
