I go to my room, my mind reeling. Unsure why Callahan would attack her like that? He was just fine, as normal as he could be but I felt something.. with that sound.


I bite my lip changing out of the dirty clothes, the block was dusty it made my clothes a ashy gray color.


And we failed it... How are we supposed to survive the Capitol if we can't even get through a mock test?


Cato comes in soon after, " Callahan is going back in for review, he really had no idea what he did." He comes closer wrapping his arms around me, one trails over my stomach slowly wrapping behind my back sending shivers up my spine.


" You sure your ok?"


" Yea, just a little surprised...I wasn't expecting that."


" Right.." he says slowly, tucking a stray hair behind my ear. " Enobaria is in labor right now."


My eyes widen, " What? Do we need to do anything or-"


" We just sit here and wait." He says running his hand up and down my waist. I narrow my eyes just a little bit, " Are you.. Are you ok?"


" Brutus isn't here." He answers.


I bite my cheek, we never had time to grieve. I remember him but not..all of him, I don't remember alot of the memories we shared or how strong our relationship was before we were reaped together.


I never told Cato that.. I think it would crush him, he'd want to tell me but revisiting the subject would just hurt him even more.


" We'll make sure that baby is loved. Enobaria will be so sick of us." caught up in the moment I gave him a soft kiss.


Oh shit.. I just kissed him!


I pulled away quickly, " Oh, umm.." My face feels like lava right now...


Cato stands there minorly shocked before his smile grows. " I've waited so long for that." He leans down pressing his lips softly into mine. I melt into his touch instantly.


He pulls away again, " Ok, we cannot get distracted." He says quickly.


" Oh, I'm being distracting?" I grin.


" No." He says a little sterner. " Stop that."


You roll your eyes going to sit on the bed, " Fine we wait."


" Your..upset?"


You shake your head chuckling, " No. You stay on your side and I'll stay over here so we don't distract."


" Screw. That." He says quicly tackling me on the bed. " Cato!" You yell. He peppers you in kisses, " You missed me or what?" I laugh.
