I wake up and find Cato staring at me. I look at him confused and he smiles "I love watching you sleep. You look so young", he says. I smile and kiss him softly. Enobaria and Brutus come in and say, "Get up kids, we have to work on your interview angles", says Enobaria "Cato come on man get up", says Brutus. We get up and shower. I put on a green shirt and jeans and walk to Enobaria's room. She says that I will be going for the sarcastic with a little bit of sweetness angle. "That is so not me. I am sweet and caring. I am not a killing machine. Or at least i dont want to be", I say. Enobaria smiles and hugs me "I know how it feels. You feel so helpless that they are changing you. But clove dont change. That is what they want. If you have to kill someone, kill then fast and dont make them suffer. I know that you are a sweet girl so dont change", she says with tears in her eyes. We hug for 5 minutes then we get back to work.  She asks me questions and I reply with my angle. I then go to the my stylist and he makes me walk in heels. I fall a couple of times, but then I get used to them. He then gives me an orange dress with pink kind of with some heels that are a mixture of orange, pink,and yellow. I look into the mirror. I look gorgeous. He then applies makeup to my face. He give me red lips, as red as blood. He puts orange eye shadow on me and yellow eyeliner. I look very pretty. He just looks at me and says, "you are the prettiest tribute I ever had. You are different. You arent a killer, you are just a girl that hates the games as much as I do", he says "You hate the games?You are from the capitol, you dont have to hate them. Your children dont go to the games", I say angrily "Yes, but how do you think it feels when you style a tribute and they never come back?", he says "It must feel awful", I say. He smiles sadly and gives me my shoes. I walk and look stunning. It is time for the interviews. Cato is in a black suit with black pants. He looks awesome. I see Glimmer's interview. Her angle is sexy, with that gold see through dress. Marvel's is funny, but i think he is trying too hard. Then I am up. I walk over to Caesar with a smile. He shakes my hand and i sit down. He gets up and yells, "Clove from district2!" The crowd goes wild, they always do with D2."So Clove, what do you like about the Capitol?", he says "I like the food. You have a lot of food here. My family could live for 2 months with the food you have for one dinner", I say smiling "Well, that sure is a lot of food", he laughs "So is there any special guy back home?" "Not really", I say blushing "What do you mean? Gorgeous girl like you! Tell me!" he says "Well there is this guy i have known forever. He is my friend. I wont say names, but he knows who he is" I say "Ladies and Gentlemen Clove from D2!!" I smile and walk backstage. I only pay attention to Cato's, Rue's, Katniss's,and Peeta's interview. Peeta confessed his love for Katniss. I smile. We walk up to the living room and sit down to watch the scores given by the gamemakers on our private sessions. I showed them my knive and bow skills. Glimmer and Marvel got a 10, so did me and Cato. Rue gets a 7. Good for her. Peeta gets an 8. Katniss an 11. An 11? she isnt even a career!!  I better kill her, as much as I hate killing, I have to protect everyone from her. I go to my room and shower. As I shower I think of the arena. It will have trees for sure. It will have water. I finish my shower, remove the makeup, fix my hair in a ponytail and put my nightgown on. Cato is waiting for me. "I will protect you. No matter what ok?", he says sadly "Ok", I say. He kisses me gently and hugs me. I think before falling asleep. Oh cato...how will I live without you?
