The Hunger Games! {ClovexCato}

Chapter 1, Part 10

10 chapter mark!!
Clove pov:

She steps off the stage and her innocent smile is right back on her face. As she's about to walk past me i grab her shoulder "i'll get you, just you wait and see" she looks at me with an evil smirk "we'll see about that Ms Kentwell~" she pushes past me and winks at Cato before walking out of the waiting area. "She's on my shit list now."

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

"Clove Kentwell for individual assessment" i'm called into the training center. I look at the others with peak confidence. 'i'm gonna do the best.' i repeat that sentence in my head until i stand in view of the gamemakers (i forgot what they're called dont slander me.) They're all observing me carefully. When my 5 minutes starts i run over to the knive throwing section of course. To start off i just do basic throws. Seneca Crane smirk before pressing a red button

I find myself locked into the box. The words 'EXTREME' are plastered on the walls. The lights go off and a bunch of orange looking people are suddenly lunging at me. The first few i jab in the neck and then the others are decapitated with one of my bigger knives. Once freed from the box i still have 2 minutes lefts. I use the rest of my time demonstrating my survival and climbing skills.
This should be enough to get a high score.
High enough to get sponsors.

"Thank you.. for your consideration" i bow before slowly but surely walking out of the center.

"Now onto district 2, Clove Sevina Kentwell with a score of..." a pause is heard before he speaks again "An 11!" i jump up. I got an 11!!!!! That's amazing!!!! "Cato James Hadley with a score of..." another pause lingers in the air "A 10!" cheers are heard from around us, from Jules, and Enobaria. "Well done you two! Now, this is our last day together. We have prepared a feast for all tributes! Please eat well. This may be your last meal for a while." Jules explains "Tomorrow morning, you'll-" i shush Jules "wait their announcing D12"

"Katniss Rose Everdeen with a score of.. 11!" how. she literally almost shot the game makers in the head! "Don't focus on that Clove, go get ready for dinner!" she waves us to our rooms. I'm walking beside Cato and he pulls my hand onto his. "Tomorrow it's just us. Ok? Us against the world babe" i squeeze his hand "it can't just be us, we have to form alliances, with D1 and D3, we can all hunt Katniss down together. Then we get them one night! Then it'll be us." he looks to his feet as we stand in front of my room.

"Yeah what happens when it is just us? I can't kill you." i sigh. "we'll figure it out ok?" he places his head on mine "i love you ok? i'll see you soon" he kisses my lips before walking off to his room. If it comes down to the two of us how will we do it? Rock paper scissors?
There's a purple dress similar to my interview one but with more coverage

my girls fit pt20189🙉

creds to Christina Aguilera's stylist 🤗
she's literally so beautiful i'm gonna die.

also she's wearing these instead of the heels in the picture 😉😉

I look at myself in the mirror, i popped on a bit of mascara and red lipstick. I'm wearing dangly hoop earrings and a diamond necklace. My curls are pretty much still in tact so i just pull it into a half up half down get-up. I hear my door creak open and i see Cato, he's wearing a dark purple-blue-ish suit. "you look sexy of course~" he wraps his arms around my waist "let's eat, im starvinggggg" i giggle "let's eat you barbarian" i waltz out of the room and i hear him follow close behind

When we enter dining room everyone is here. "what the shit took y'all so long?" Marvel asks as he stuffs his face with a pastry. "i was taking my time with getting, clearly you didn't" he flicks me off and i blow a kiss back in return. "So Cato..." a voice is heard from the other side of Cato. It's the wicked witch of the west; Maria Osama. "What's with you and Clove? A star crossed lover act?" she looks him in the eyes "Uh no i don't think telling her i love her is a star crossed lover act"

"well what will you ever do if she dies?" he scoffs and looks back at his plate "that won't happen, she's tough and she can protect herself." i like it when he defends me, it makes me feel above the rest of all them. Katniss is staring at her food, out of all of us she needs it the most. "You should really eat something Katniss, it'll help you tomorrow" i say, directing my attention to her. If she doesn't eat that just makes it easier for us to hunt her down.

"Noted" she replies back
After a while of eating in dead silence i excuse myself, along with Cato. "he definitely bouta hit that shit" I hear Marvel say, he must have an extremely fast metabolism because he's still chewing on a chicken leg. I drag Cato into my room by his chain necklace

"one time?"
he asks
"one time."
then our lips attract together like opposite magnets.
