Chapter 11

Cato's POV


When I wake up Clove has her head on my chest and her hand curled around mine. She looks...cozy. I smile to myself. I turn my neck to the side to get a better look at her face.

But after a few moments I become mesmerized by her complexion. Her skin is a milky white and her lips are a soft pink. Her dark hair complements her green eyes and part of me wishes she would wake up so I can look at them. Her eyes are strangely beautiful. Emerald green in color with a little gold around the iris.

I find myself staring at her lips.

I really want to kiss her. I know I shouldn't but I want to. I settle myself by placing a light kiss on her temple. Clove mumbles something and tightens her grip on me.

I tuck a stray piece of hair behind her ear and I hear her sigh quietly.

"Cato?" She says after a minute or two.

"Hmm?"

"You should get even" She says.

"What?" I say, distracted because that I'm debating on weather or not to kiss her. Maybe I'll just- "Cato, did you hear me?"

"What?" I say again. "Uhhh yeah I heard you." I say.

"Oh really, what did I say then?" She asks.

"Uhhh, you said that um,...I don't know." I say.

She rolls her eyes.

"I want you to get even." She says.

"My eyebrows furrow. "What do you mean?" I ask her.

She lightly traces her name on my neck in the same spot where she carved it.

"Huh?" I say confused.

"Write your name." Shesays.

It takes me a minute to process what she's saying.

"You want me to carve my name on your neck?" I say slowly.

She nods.

"Why would you want me to do that?" I ask dazed.

"Because I did that to you and I want you to that to me."She says.

"You're serious?" I ask her.

"Yes."

"Right this very minute?" I say.

"Yes."

"I don't know ..." I trail off.

"Cato, please I really want you to." She says.

"Ummm, I guess so?" I say, still not full understanding what I'm agreeing to.

"Good."She says while pulling out a dagger.

"Where hell did you get a dagger from?" I ask shocked.

"Please, I have one on me 90% of the time." She says.

I stare open mouthed at her.

"What?" She says innocently.

I shake my head.

"Here." She says while putting the dagger in my hand.

"Clove..." I trail off.

Clove smiles at me. "Please." She asks sweetly.

"This is kinda twisted." I tell her.

"Oh Cato, don't pretend like you're not as twisted as me." She says.

"Fair enough." I mumble.

I sigh and turn her neck to the side.

She'll look really hot with my name on her. I think.

I pick the same spot on her neck where she cut me.

"Do you really want me to do this?" I ask her.

"For god sakes just do it." She says.

I look at her for a moment.

"What's the real reason you want me to do this?" I ask her.

"I'll tell you when you're finished." She says

Well if she wants it... give it to her. I think. Not to mention I'm flattered that she wants my name on her.

I sigh and put the blade to her skin.

I make sure my writing is clear and crisp. I focus on the blade and I make sure I cut deep enough to leave an obvious scar once it's healed. I pause halfway through and glance up at Clove. She has a small smile on her face and she nods approvingly.

She doesn't even appear to be in any sort of pain. Either she's not feeling anything, or she has a poker face like no other.

I finish the curve of my 'o' and pull back to see how it looks. My handwriting is perfect. Blood drips from the letters and I wipe it away with a kiss.

I suck on the wound a little and take the blood off my lips slowly with my tongue.

She staring at me with this dreamy expression on her face. She smiles at me.

"Now tell me why you wanted this." I say quietly.

"So no one will try and take me from you." She says.

I'm confused by her answer.

"What do you mean?" I ask.

Her cheeks redden slightly. "I umm, really like hanging out with you and I don't want anyone to try and get between us and uhhh, ruin our friendship." She says while looking at her hands.

I smile at her. "I like hanging out with you too, but who would get between us?" I ask her.

"Glimmer." She says while crinkling her nose.

I laugh. "You don't have to worry about Glimmer, I can't stand her either." I say.

"But what about the other day when she was talking to you and invited you to her party?" She asks quietly.

"I told her I already had plans with you and she said 'ok next time' and left." I tell her.

Cloves jaw drops. "That lying bitch!" "I'm gonna rip her throat out!" She yells.

"She said that-." Clove abruptly stops talking and her face turns red.

"What?" I ask.

"Nothing." She mutters.

"Wait a second, is that why you did this to me?" I ask, gesturing to my neck.

"No." She says, but she's clearly lying.

I smirk at her. "Oh my god you're jealous." I say.

"Am not." She mumbles.

"Don't worry Clover blonde idiots aren't my type." I say.

She gives me a look of uncertainty.

"Come on, lets fix you up." I say.

I gently pick her up and carry her over to the bathroom. I turn on the light and place her on the counter top. "Let me clean it for you." I say while grabbing a small wash cloth. I hold it under the faucet for a few seconds. Clove watches me as I gently dab her neck and wipe away the blood.

"Almost done." I whisper.

I open the medicine cabinet and take out the jar of antiseptic cream. I open it and gently rub it on her neck. Clove sighs quietly. I rub it in slowly, making sure it gets into the wound.

"Feels better?" I ask her when I'm done.

She looks up at me and nods.

"Are you happy now?" I ask her.

"Yeah are you?" She asks dazed.

"Almost." I say.

She gives me a look. "Come on." She says while hoping off the counter and walking back out into my room. I follow.

"Clove." I say softly as I stop walking. She turns around and looks at me. "Yeah?" She says. I look her over. Why is she so goddamn beautiful? I take a step towards her.

She backs up.

Every step I take she takes one back. Eventually, her back lightly hits the wall.

Perfect.

She looks around and realizes she can't go anywhere. She settles her gaze on the floor.

"Clover." I say while tilting my head to the side. She looks up at me, meeting my lustful gaze. She opens her mouth to say something but nothing comes out. I can't take it anymore. I lean in close the distance between us, and bringing my lips to hers.

Her lips feel soft and warm and I smile against them when she kisses me back. I rest a hand on the nape of her neck and settle the other at her waist. I lift her t-shirt up slightly and draw small circles with my thumb on her bare skin. She sighs and I kiss her with more force. She caresses the side of my face in a very soothing way that makes me feel... happy.

I lightly bite her lower lip and suck on it a little.

She whimpers and I feel myself smirk against her lips.

"Cato." She says against my lips, not breaking the kiss.

"What?" I say as I pull her closer to me.

"I like you." She says.

"No shit, I like you to." I say.

She breaks the kiss and looks up at me shyly.

She takes a minute for her breathing to even before shakily asking me a question.

"Cato w- will you,... ummm,... uhh-." Clove looks at the ground and and doesn't finish her sentence.

"Clove will you be my girlfriend?" I ask her rather quickly.

She blushes scarlet and nods.

I grin and capture her lips for another kiss.


Oh snap! They kissed! I know this chapter is really short, I'm sorry. I'm not really satisfied with it ... I hope you are :/
