Cato's POV:

I tried to train today but all i could think about was clove and what had happend the other day and who the hell would've done something like that to her..im thankful that her fathers a doctor though,we talked for awhile after i dropped her home,they seem like good enough people for the most part,i wondered if they knew what had happend to her but i forced myself to stay quiet about it and not ask because they seemed distressed enough seeing her like that as it was..they also seemed shocked when they seen her like that for some reason..so could something else have happend?had they not known how she got hurt?..maybe she got attacked..or worse?i didnt like thinking about her being hurt,after i saw her collapse on the ground it was as if time completely stopped for a second or two,i couldn't move at all,it doesn't seem like a long time but once you're actually there it seems like way longer then that,ive been trying to get my mind off of things ever since it happend but it seems as though its near impossible to do..the vision of her on the floor,unconscious and bleeding keeps replaying in my mind no matter how much i want it gone,maybe just seeing her and realising that shes ok will make that go away,i hope so anyways..

I've seen countless amounts of people injured and dying on the television but not so much in real life,not anyone i really cared for atleast,yesterday was diffrent because it did actually happen to someone i cared for and that someone was clove,because she wasn't just my training partner,i thought of her as my friend too..maybe even abit more then a friend?a best friend?no that wasn't right..i couldn't put my finger on it but she was definitely different alright,different in a good way i mean,obviously..

I figure that there's nothing better to do then go to her house and check on her to see if shes gotten any better from the last time i seen her,which i get ready to do until i see that she's already waiting outside the training center for me..it seems as though her father is more of a miracle worker then a doctor because other then the fact that her wounds are all sown up,she seems like shes back to herself again which is what im most happy about,i run up to her and hug her,which seems to startle her but she hugs me back"jeez cato i wasn't gone for that long!"she teases but im just glad to have her back"i dunno clovey,it seemed pretty long to me anyways-" "clovey?that's a new one"she says elbowing me in my arm"yup..not too sure where that one came from-"

Why was i acting nervous infront of her?this never happend before,not until now atleast,i think she could sense my nervousness because she looked at me confused,raising an eyebrow"are you ok cato?are you sick or something?"she says as she begins raising her hand to my forehead,which i smack away,not thinking"oh right! sorry,that was..weird of me"god i messed up bad didn't i??.."no clove,really it was my fault i shouldn't have done that,you were just trying to help-hows your head by the way?"she stopped for a second before replying"it could be better i suppose,but im fine honestly..thanks for bringing me home by the way-"she knows about that??"how'd you-" "it was pretty obvious-i mean i knew you wouldn't just leave me there..kinda"i just looked at her"cato calm down!im just messing" "right..i knew that" "mhmm.." "what?i did!"i got so carried away talking to clove i forgot to ask her about what had happend that night"If you don't mind telling me..how did you even get injured in the first place?"

Clover's POV:

This was exactly the type of question i was afriad of,i wanted to tell cato the truth but i didn't want him to see me as weak and defenseless..especially against someone who i called the same thing,i didn't know what to do but i figured lying might as well be the safest option.

"I-..uh..don't really remember all that well-"he just stared at me"clove i think you should know you're really not the best liar.."i didn't expect him to catch onto me so fast but at the same time i knew he wasn't stupid,there was no point in lying to him anymore,not more then i already have"ok fine you caught me..i pushed eden out of my way and let's just say he took it a little too personally..but i did make him pay for it afterwards,i don't know what he used,he probably took one of the knives from the training center or one from my kitchen because i know he doesn't have any that can do real damage himself,he's always stealing from our house,which gets kinda annoying sometimes but i guess my mother just thinks of it more as borrowin-"i stop because i notice he hasn't said anything since i started talking about it,i quickly add"but it's not that big of a deal really,i mean i feel fine and the scars should fade soon enough anyways"
