《Clato》chapter nine

Clove was breathless. She kissed him passionately on the lips.
After a while; Cato pulled out and reached for a towel. He threw a blanket over Clove; breathless.
"Thank you." She smiled.
Clove was asleep in minutes, her dreams free of nightmares.
Cato laid down beside her, stroking Clove's dark hair softly, he exhaled deeply. Closing his eyes he dozed off.
Clove woke and saw only one light. A clock. '5:00AM' it read. She looked over at Cato. He was still here. She kissed him.
"Cato!" She called in a hushed whisper.
Cato moaned slightly. "Mmm what?"
"Babe you gotta go. Or they'll catch us."
"No." Cato said stubbornly.
"Oh crap." Clove muttered to herself. "Please babe?"
Cato didnt budge, dozing back off again.
"Cato! Please!" Clove was desperate now.
Cato groaned and sat up, he got up and gathered his clothes. He started getting dressed.
"Thank you!" Clove gave Cato a little kiss and started getting up.
Cato ran a hand through his hair and sighed.
Clove found some pyjamas and some underwear and started dressing too.
Cato looked at her. "Can I still sleep in here?"
Clove looked back at him. "Ok, but if anyone asks, you got cold." She told him.
Cato nodded and crawled back under the blankets, motioning for her to come to him.
Clove went under too and crawled closer to him, tucking her head under his chin and putting her hands to his chest.
Cato wrapped his arms around her, closing his eyes again.
Clove slowly let her eyes shut. She kind of wanted to neaten up the blankets a bit after what had happened, but she just decided she could tell them that she kicked a lot in her sleep.
She snuggled in closer and went to sleep.

Cato went out like a light.

"Good morning!" Candice exclaimed as she entered Clove's room, before staggering back a bit in shock.
Clove's eyes fluttered open and she turned onto her back.
Cato opened his eyes and looked at Candice, a bit pissed off.
Clove started getting up, scowling at Candice. Candice's face was still filled with shock.
"He got cold." Clove lied.
"Yeah.. I got cold." Cato repeated her words and sat up, rubbing the sleep from his eyes.
Candice eyed them suspiciously.
"Well here are your clothes tributes. Training is today. Get ready quickly." Candice handed them each their uniforms.
"Mhm." Cato mumbled and snatched them from her.
Clove grabbed the clothes and unfolded them. They were mostly plain but hers had two silver stripes down each side.
Cato went into the bathroom. Candice left the room altogether. He looked at the clothes and frowned, he got changed and sighed. "This is already too much."
Clove quickly got changed.
Cato walked out of the bathroom, shifting his arm. "Gawsh these things are crap."
"Haha, stop complaining! You look good in anything." Clove smiled at him.
Cato smiled at her. "Aw thanks," he said and bundled his clothes in his arms.
Clove gave him a small hug before walking out of the room. She wanted breakfast.
* * *
Cato went with her; he saw Brutus and kept his eyes lowered to the ground.
Candice came and directed them to the elevator. As if they didn't know where it was. When they got to the table Enobaria joined them. Clove sat as far away from Cato as possible. She didn't want anyone finding out.
Cato didn't eat much; he ate slowly and didn't talk.
Clove was hungry and tired, so she ate a fair bit to get her energy up. She kept her eyes low the whole time though.

When Cato finished he wandered back to his room and brushed his teeth. Thinking.
Clove went back upstairs. It wasn't until she'd finished doing her hair and started doing her teeth that she started thinking that she might be pregnant. That would be hard. Only one came out, and she was going to make sure it was Cato. But now there might be someone else. Why was her life so complicated?
Cato ran his hand under the cool water of the tap and through his hair. Dampening it, making it spike up slightly.
Clove walked out of the bathroom. She was greeted my Candice, and told to wait for Cato. They were still early anyway.
Cato walked out of the room, flicking the light off as he went.
Clove looked up and stopped herself from greeting him.
"Welcome." Candice said. "Would you like to head over now?"
Cato looked up.
"Might as well." Clove said, giving Candice a small smile.
"Yeah," Cato nodded, looking at Clove.
Candice escorted them to the training centre.
