Cato's POV

I got to admit, I'm really nervous about this. Well, I really don't know why, But I really am. Then, My prep team comes inside the room again and continued fixing me. I had no more scars, bruises and barely a scratch! I look as if I've been reborn or something. They give me a black tuxedo witha satin lapel and top collar with self trim, two button front and side vents. It also has a matching three button vest and pre-tied bow tie. It was a little bit too tight on the shoulders so I think if I move to much, my muscles were going to rip the sleeves off. They finish up and I look at myself in the mirror, and my reaction was "Whoa!" The only thing I can manage to Say. I looked at my prep team and Smiled at them. I walked towards them then i said "Thank You so Much. You've done a great job!" And they all squeal with joy and excitement. I looked at the Mirror one more time and I gotta say, I look hot and gorgeous. Ha! Look, I know I'm being conceited, but hey, there's a first time for everything, right? The quiet area soon becomes wrapped with screaming and cheering people. Therefore I know the show has started.I walked straight forward then I saw Enobaria and Brutus, and - Holy Shit! Is that Clove? Is that MY Clove?

"Whoa!" Again, I am dumfounded! She looks absolutely beautiful! Her Dress was a sleeveless dress, Ivory and pink in color. It was short, stopped at her knees, Had a ruched band at the empire waistline and had beaded flowers. Oh, the skirt was, uhm, what do you call that? Ruffled? Yeah, something like that. I bet the whole Panem will find her sweet looking. Well, on her defence, she is really sweet and caring, especially when it's me. Okay, I'm being blunt here. We - Me and Clove - usually don't care about other people. Call us harsh or selfish or whatever but that's how it really is in District 2. Cause, when you're soft and weak, They are gonna eat you, ALIVE AND WHOLE.

I started to walk - again - towards them, I was about to walk toward Clove but..

"Well, Someone looks great today," Enobaria exclaimed, "I must say, I was not so suprised with what you two did."

I laughed at what Enobaria said and so did Brutus, Clove, on the other hand who had no idea about theire bet, just raised an eyebrow and so I walked towards her, grabbed her waist and kissed the top of her head. Her hair smelled like freshly picked white roses and is it wrong that I found it hot?

"Well, I must explain," Enobaria said, Grinning evilly at Brutus, Brutus just scowled. "Brutus and I - "

"Ladies and Gentlemen, I Am Very pleased to present, The Victors of the 74th Annual Hunger Games!" Caesar Flickerman has announced, montioning for us to go on stage, I glance at Clove, who glances at me back and I offer her my hand, She smiles at me and takes my hand, she walks forward and I follow her. She smiles at the crowd and wave with her right hand, I do the same. We sat down but I didn't let go of her hand, simply because I didn't want to. Caesar was doing a gesture with his hands and the crowd went silent and still, and it was preety amazing, what he did. Imagine people doing things you want with just hand gestures! You don't even have to talk!

"So, Cato," Caesar said, I just raised my eyebrow, "I must say, I didn't expect this from you." He said, of course I knew what he was talking about. Well, if you don't, let me break it down for you, He means the Star-Crossed Lovers Act that 12 started. Well, of course My Love for Clove was real. Not like their one-sided love. So I just grinned at him and I said, "Well, You're not the only one." Then, I laughed. Caesar laughed as well.

"Well, who could blame you?" He said, "It's hard not to fall for this young lady right here." Caesar exclaimed, Oh Caesar, I thought, You have no idea. Clove on the other hand, can't stop blushing and so she just bowed down. How cute she looked.

"So, tell me, Cato," Caesar said, glancing back at me, "How did you and Clove meet?" He asked.

So, I smirked, "Well, It all started one late night, at District 2's Training Centre." I started, "You see, trainig after hours, was, well- my thing." I said
