Everybody looked in shock, the silence was deafening. Alice felt like the walls were closing in on her as everybody's eyes seemed to be on her, what the fuck. Haymitch gave Effie a smirk as he raised his glass and broke the silence ''To the girl on fire'' he grinned and the others grabbed they're glasses as well. 

''To the girl on fire'' they all said and Clove got out of her seat and ran towards the blond girl giving her a small hug, ''See i told you didn't have to worry'' she beamed. ''Im so proud of you Alice'' she whispered and Alice gave her a tight lipped smile ''Thank you Clovie'' she replied, as soon as Clove let go of her she turned to see Cato with a smile on his face. ''Congrats baby'' he trilled engulfing her in a bone crushing hug, ''You're not mad?'' she whispered and he gave her a look of surprise ''why the fuck would i be mad?'' he asked her giving her a small laid back smile.

''I don't know maybe the fact that i got a higher score than you'' she expressed and he just laughed, ''Well consider my ego not bruised'' he joked and Alice let out a chuckle. Clove and Peeta came over ''Share the joke'' Clove said with a smirk, ''Oh i was just saying to Mr. Hadley over here that i beat him'' she smirked back and Cato jokingly put a hand over his heart and put on a hurt expression. ''How could you'' he said in a fake upset voice which made the 4 of them burst out laughing.

''Okay you 4 back to the table we haven't finished yet'' Effie squeaked in her Capitol accent, ''So what are your tactics for the games'' Brutus asked Alice. ''Well since District 1 is on there own they won't be able to guard all the supplies so i was thinking during the bloodbath we run to the cornucopia and 2 of us defend which the other 2 grabs as many supplies as we can and then we run'' she stated and Cato gave her a proud smile. ''You're a genius'' he interjected and she blushed. ''We should probably kill Marvel and Glimmer as soon as possible since we all really pissed them off were probably the first ones on they're kill list'' Peeta said, Clove and Cato nodded. 

''I wanna be the one to kill Marvel'' Cato stated anger could be heard in his voice, they all nodded. ''Now its getting pretty late so we should head back to our floor now'' Enobaria said standing up and Brutus did the same, ''Im staying here'' Cato stated and they all looked at his surprised. ''Yeah im gonna stay too'' Clove said, Brutus shrugged ''Alright then'' he pulled a surprised looking Enobaria out of the room. Before leaving he shot Alice a wink before leaving.

''Okay'' Alice breathed and pulled Cato to her room, ''So are we gonna watch that movie'' he asked and she smiled. ''Sure'' as they both sat on the bed there was a knock at the door, the door opened to reveal a nervous looking Clove. ''Hey Clovie'' Cato said giving her a smile, ''Hey hope in not intruding or anything but i was just wondering if i could join you guys because im so fucking bored out of my mind right now'' she smiled nervously playing with her fingers ''As long as you guys aren't like- you know'' Alice shook her head and smirked ''Yeah sure'' she welcomed her.

Clove walked over and dived onto the bed and landed on top of Cato, he laughed and started tickling her which made her squeal. ''Okay okay im starting the movie'' Alice laughed before going back to the remote and pressing play. When the movie started the door opened again and Peeta walked in, before he could even speak Cato spoke ''Yes'' and Peeta smiled before also plopping on top of the bed. Alice curled up into Cato and he wrapped his arms around her.

Once the movie finished she looked over to see Peeta and Clove fast asleep, ''Looks like they were tired'' she joked. Cato chuckled, ''Now that was the best fucking movie i've ever seen in my whole 18 years of life'' he said ''And damn Uma Thurman was hot'' she smacked his arm. ''Don't worry your still the most beautiful girl i've ever met in my life'' he grinned and she leaned her head against his chest. ''Thank you'' she gave him a soft smile.

Her eyes opened and she sat up, she looked over to see Clove, Cato and Peeta still asleep on her bed. Then it hit her, today was the interviews.
