Clove POV

I wake up to a sharp pain in my head, I sit myself up and hold the back of my head and groan. I then realise I was in a different room. I groan again I was probably  in Catos' room. Then the door swings open, and Cato stands at the door holding a basket of laundry

"Oh my god, Clove your ok!!" he shouts while throwing the laundry on the floor and running to me. He then engulfs me in warm embrace

"Cato..you...can let......go....now" I manage to gasp out. He then let's go of me

"Sorry" he manages to mumble out

"What happen to me?" I ask

"Well, Harry attacked you and cut you on the neck then you were out cold when I found you" he tells me

"Oh" is all I manage to say

"Clove, I'm sorry" he says

"It's ok, I know it's my fault anyway" I mumble out

"No Clove it's not your fault, I was just angry" he says. I give him a kiss on the cheek and lean into his chest he wraps his arms around me and rest his cheek on my head.

"You hungry?" Cato finallly says to break the silence

"Famished" I reply. I jump out of bed and look behind to only find Cato smirking

"What?" I ask crossing my arms over my chest

"New look?" he asks.

I just look at him confused and realise I'm just in my under clothing. My arms instantly fly to cover my body and I run out of Catos' room to mine.

I put on a thin strapped white dress that ends at the knees with a black belt and I comb my hair black into a low ponytail. I walk out of my room and walk into the study room. I seat my self down on the dark green vintage french lounge chair. I grab a book from the shelf. I look at the cover and it says Anne of Green Gables. I shrug my shoulders and begin reading.

Cato POV

After a while I walk to Cloves' room and find it empty, then I stroll into the study room and find Clove in full concertration reading a book. I slowly walk over to her and stand behind her, I then lean over and place my face next to hers. I hear her breath and watch her concertrated eyes

"Boo" I whisper. then Clove squeals and throws the book onto the floor.

"Cato, now I lost my page" she whines

"I'm sorry baby" I tell her pouting, she just sighs then says "It's ok"

"Clove" I say

"Yes?" she replies

"I'm hungry" I tell her

"So?" she says in a confused tone

"Can you make me something?" I whine

"Fine" she replies. She picks up the the book and closes it up placing it on the lounge. She then walks down stair and I follow her. She looks through the pantry and takes out a block of chocolate, a cup of water, whip cream,strawberries and cherries. Then she goes to a different pantry and takes out a small pot.

Clove POV

I pour abit of water into the pot and place the pot on the stove turning it on to medium, I then put half a block of chocolate and wait for it to melt. I pour the rest of the water in the sink and put away the other half of chocolate.

"Clove what are you making for me?" Cato whispers in my ear

"Strawberries dipped in chocolate also served with cherries dipped in whipped cream" I reply

"yum" he replie.

After the chocolate melts I turn the stove off and scrape the melted chocolate into a small glass bowl.  I then put the strawberries on a plate with the glass bowl of chocolate I then hand the plate to Cato and kiss him on the cheek.

"Enjoy" I tell him. He kisses me on the forehead and walks to the lounge room and turns on the tv. He sits there dipping strawberries in chocolate and watching tv.

I grab a bowl and join him on the couch. I fill the bowl with whip cream and start dipping the cherries in cream

"Hey Clove can I have some?" Cato asks

"Sure" I reply offering him the cream and cherries

"Hey Clove" he says I turn and he wipes cream oh my nose

"Hey" I growl, I then dip my finger in the chocolate and wipe it on his nose

"Haha revenge is sweet" I laugh.

Cato then kisses my nose and licking the whip cream off

"All better" he says while smiling. I kiss him on the nose and lick the chocolate off.

"There all better" I say smiling.

We continue to eat and I lean against  his shoulder for comfort. When we finish eating I take the plates and bowls back to the sink.

"Hey, Cato I'm going for a walk" I tell him slipping a pair of black flats on

"No" Cato replies coldly

"Please Cato" I whine

"No, not what happened with Harry" he says still in his cold tone

"I'll be extra safe, I'll bring a knife from the kitchen with me please" I whine

"Fine, extra careful" he says in a warning tone

"Ok" I say happily. I bring leather pouch specially designed to hold knives. I slip a knife in the pouch and strap it to my waist since it's designed like a belt. I walk out the door giving Cato a reassuring smile. I walk out of the victors' village and walk down a old dirt road leading to a old shabby house. I walk up the old rickety stairs and open the squeaky door. I walk in and walk into an old bedroom. Under the bed I pull out a sack of knives.

Before the games and during training I use to hang out in this shabby house after training. I slip in 2 three inch knives, 3 pocket knives and my favourite knife it was 4 inches long and hooked at the end. I shove the sack under the bed again and walk back to the Victors Village. I open the door and Cato is still on the couch watching tv.

"Hey Cato"

"What did you do on your walk?"

"Just get a few knives"

"From where?"

"don't worry"

"Clove whwere did you get the knives from?"

"I have my own secrets"

I run upstairs and put my pouch on my vanity desk and run back down stairs again.Cato stares at me smiling and gets up from the couch

"So what's for dinner" Cato asks

"Are you that hungry?" I scoff

"Maybe" Cato replies happily

"Pizza" I reply while picking up the phone dialling to order pizza.
