True Love || Clato

The Deal

"I'll do everything just to be your boyfriend" Cato smirks.

"What the hell!" Clove shouted. "Seriously? Or are you just messing with me?"

"What if I tell you that I'm really serious. That I'll do everything"

"Hah! Prove it then!"

"So you're challenging me huh?"

"Of course!"

"Okay. So the deal is if I win The Hunger Games. You'll be my girlfriend."

"You can't be serious Cato!"

"Well. I'am. I'm going to volunteer. I'm gonna win."

"What if you lose?" Clove frowns.

"Then I die, simple as that. Don't tell me you're worried that I might die?"

"No! I don't want you to be my boyfriend. End of story. I don't care if you die."

"Fine. But I'm gonna win. You'll see. Deal?"

"Yeah. Whatever."

*Clove's POV*

So we reached our last year to be reaped. Both of us are already 18. I don't know what has gotten to him lately. I admit I'm nervous that he's gonna volunteer. I hope he's just kidding. I can be his girlfriend but not now. I'm not ready yet. Well I like him. But I'm too shy to admit it. Shy is not the word. Whatever.

Damn! But there are lots of question that needs to be answered. Why is Cato doing this? Does he really meant it? He recently broke up with Zora. I know Cato, he's the playboy type. Whatever. Oh wait. Zora was the one who broke up with him. Does it mean I was the reason why they broke up out of jealousy? My goodness! Don't be ridiculous Clove! Cato doesn't have a thing for you. You're just a rebound. That's all.

"Cato's POV*

I know this is tough. It's ridiculous. But I have no regrets. I'll do everything. I'll prove her.

All I know is I love her.If it wasn't because of Cyriac maybe we're together. Good thing that guy has gone to the Capitol. It's my time to get Clove. Damn Cato, you sound like a maniac.

*someone knocks on the door*

"Who's that?"

"It's your mom! You have a visitor"

"Who?"

"Zora!"

That girl is annoying. I don't want to see her.

"I'm sick!" *coughs*

She really take things seriously. I just told her I can be her boyfriend just to make Clove jealous. I broke up with her because I think it's the right time to confess my feelings for Clove. Then she was like "Don't you like me anymore?" and I was like "Seriously? I never like you." Yeah.

Frankly speaking.
