Cato's pov
*Me and Clove are led of the train before we are taken to the 'prep room' as Enobaria said. They clean me for most of the morning before I am taken to a room where I will meet my stylist, Elaina I think I heard one of my prep team say. The door opens, and a woman walks in.*
"Hello, I am Elaina. Your Cato, aren't you." A blond woman in a short white dress says.
"Yep." I say, extending my hand out to her. *She takes it and shakes my hand.*
"Let's get you ready then." She says and starts to get me ready for the tribute parade. *I'm now ready for the tribute parade. I am wearing a gold gladiator like outfit with a gold headpiece. I am led out to where the tribute parade will take place.*
"You look great." Clove says.
"Thanks, so do you." I say. *Clove is wearing the same outfit as me but more of a dress then top and stupid skirt. We all start talking about random things as tribute start to file in, but I take no notice. That is until a certain someone catches my eye. I see her walk out of the lift in a green and white dress that stops above her knees but gets longer towards the back, she has green eyeshadow and lipstick. Even without her black and f/c dress I still know its y/n l/n from District 7, the pretty girl I haven't been able to get of my mind for more then 10 minutes. The way her dress at the reaping fit nicely around her, the way her e/c eyes went great with her face, the way her hair made it so you could see her entier face, and now the way that green dress hugs her body and accentuates her build.*
"When you're up there, don't smile. Have no emotion on your face. But still wave, but don't flap your hand about like an idiot. Just put your arm up and move your hand about a bit." Brutus says to me and Clove, catching my attention.
"15 seconds." An announcer says through a speeker. *We get onto the chariot, District 1 soon pulling out. We come out soon after, and I do as Brutus said, I raise my hand and wave but with no emotion on my face. I hear cheers as more capital citizens get to see us. I look up to see a big screen with me and Clove on it. Wow, we look amazing next to each other in our gold outfits. As we get further out, the screams get really loud, I look up at the big screen, hoping to see who they are cheering for. I see an image of the familiar h/c haired girl, y/n l/n, and her district partner. They are obviously intrieged by y/n l/n and her district partner due to them not being trees but looking as though they are high up, maybe rulers of some sort. But I'm not interested in them because of their outfits, well, I'm not even interested in him. I'm interested in y/n l/n, and I have been since I first saw her at the reaping. The boy from 7 realised they were on the big screen and get's his district partner's attention and points towards the screen. When she sees that she is on the big screen, she breifly stops waving, and a huge smile appears on her face. Even her smile is pretty. But it doesn't last long before she looks away. We get almost halfway down, and the cheers come back again. I look up to see District 12 on the screen, but on fire. WHAT! They are taking away all the attention. The sponsors will be focused on them, not me. I look away from the screen pissed off by District 12. We soon arrive below the President's Palace. He starts his speech, but I don't pay attention, I want to try to intimidate any tributes I can but also get a better look at y/n l/n. I see her, and soon she looks towards me and Clove. We make eye contact. She isn't looking away, maybe she's checking me out. She's most definitely checking me out. I smirk at her, knowing she's checking me out, and I don't blame her. I mean, like, look at me, I am definitely handsome, all of the girls back home in 2 want me. And honestly I can't really get angry at her as the way her dress highlights her body makes me go crazy and start to question who is better y/n l/n or Glimmer from District 1. I wink at her, but then she gives a disgusted look before looking away. DAMN IT CATO! You had one shot, and you ruined it. The president has finished his speech, and we start to go back. Me and Clove get out of the chariot, and soon Brutus, Enobaria, Sebastian, Elaina, and Clove's stylist arrive.*
