What Could Happen? [A Clato FanFiction]

Hello, Snow

 Cloves POV

Cato and I walked up onto our carriage and the horses started trotting forward. Cato and I kept a strait face while waving at all of our fans. The cheer was not as impressing as it could be, but atleast it was something. I looked at Cato and was surprised by how he looked. He had seemed to be replaced from a boy from district two to a boy who was waiting  to slit someones throat.

Eventually, all of the chariots pulled up in front of President Snow. He then started to talk his usuals, like how he was so excited for all of us to be here and pleased some of us had volunteered. Right before our chariots pulled away, I got one more glance at President Snow. I saw his red snake like eyes look into mine, and then he winked at me. WINKED. AT. ME!

I turned my head back quickly. Cato didn't seem to notice, so I told him. His eyes widened and he started laughing. I didn't think it was very funny.

Catos POV

Clove and I walked down to the elevator with Ebb and Finley. I kept trying to lighten Cloves mood by saying jokes, but she still seemed very scared that President Snow winked at her. When we made it back to our floor, Finley finally asked what was wrong.

"Clove,dear, what is going on with you?"She asked, patting Clove on the shoulder. Clove looked at me as if asking me if it was okay to tell them about President Snow, and I nodded.

"Well, you see... President Snow winked at me and it kind of freaked me out because he's a creepy dude." She awkwardly laughed,looking down at her hand. She looked up at Finley and Ebb, and at first, they were silent until Ebb yelled,"YESSSSSSSS!" He jumped from his seat. "Don't you understand Finley!President is rooting for her! To win the games!" Finley and Ebb both celebrated until a girl with sharp teeth walked in.

"Hey, shut up guys. Let the girl breath." Enobaria. Winner of the 62nd hunger games. She had won by "biting her opponents neck open", more like ripping it open with her her bare teeth until she had reached the cannons fire. She shook both Clove and I's hand and said," Hi, I am your mentor." Just before Enobaria could tell us anything else, two peacekeepers came into the room. "Hello, district two. Where could we find Clove Kentwell? President Snow has requested to see her."

Cloves POV

 I could not believe that this was happening. With two of the peacekeepers hands holding my arms, I was being walked to go talk to President Snow. I felt like a little kid being called to the office. We walked down a lot of hallways until we found a large double door with the capitol seal painted on it. The peacekeepers opened the door and shoved me in to the room, locking the doors behind me. The room was dark, and not to mention cold. "Hello? Is anyone in here?" I asked.

 I heard someone clap two times, and lights came on. The room was big and round, a desk in the middle. Sitting in the chair was Snow. He signaled for a peacekeeper to bring me a chair, and I sat down. A sudden chill went down my back,and I felt cold.

"I know what your trying to do, Clove." President Snow said. I honestly had no idea what he was talking about. "Sir?" I asked.

"Dont play dumb on me you clover. I saw you and Cato's kiss. You will probably go into the arena as some starcrossed lovers that have to survive together or not at all, just like the team that killed your sister!"His voice increased in sound. "You know that I can kill you or not in that arena?"

I decided that I needed a way out of this. "We never kissed. That sounds so weird! We are only friends that want to kill eachother." I leaned back in my chair like this was a waste of time. President Snow only smiled back. "Oh, so then what is THIS!?" He clicked a button on his desk, and a video projected out onto the wall from a security camera. I watched in horror, it was me and Catos kiss. 

I thought over what President Snow said. He could kill me just like that. Maybe I can do what he wanted. I am guessing that he was wanting me to not be in love with him."What do  you want me to do?" I asked, crossing my arms.

"Don't act all star crossed. Don't even be in love. Hate each other!! I warn you Clove, if you pretend to be in love and everyone starts to feel bad about these games you've created, you will die in the arena! Your Dismissed." His evil eyes bore through me. I easily walked out of the room, followed by peacekeepers.

I can not process what just happened. Snow must have thought that I was trying to sabotage the Games! What do I do now? Cato has just confessed his love for me and I have wanted that my whole life. I don't know what to do, but I have to get out of this arena alive.
