My Reason To Live (A Hunger Games Fanfiction)

Chapter 3

"Jessica right?"Rue said all shy

"Yeah you're so good with the slingshot"I said

"Can't say I can put it to good use in the arena"She said

"You never know with your quick speed you could make it out alive"I said a little whisper like can't risk the careers hearing that

"Thanks"Rue said

We went to different stations and she told me a lot about her district and that they use Mockingjays to sometimes communicate I mean how cool is that.

The next thing I knew it was already lunch I sat beside Rue and the careers two seats by my right and Katniss and Peeta sat across me.

I enjoyed the silence during lunch I could think clearly.I hate it that I haven't went to any weapon section up to now maybe I'll train later.I could hear the careers laugh form hear not that I hate Clove and Cato's laugh their were like melodies to my ears but it was to loud do you really need to laugh really loud just to intimidate other careers I mean where's the sense in they started challenging each other on who could hit the apple on Marvel's being Glimmer and that terrible aim of hers couldn't even shoot it.

Her last shot almost shot Marvel by the eyes good thing he managed to avoid it poor guy.I was getting tired of the noise and I feel pity for Glimmer's helpless attempts so I decided to put matters in my own hands I grabbed the knife near me and shot it at Marvel without even looking I'm that talented kidding! The knife went through the apple and my throw was so powerful that after the knife shot the apple it went through it and hit the wall everyone was shocked at first but they looked at my direction some of them wide eyes and I saw Cato and Clove know too well that I was the one who threw that knife.

After that stunning performance we all went down again it was the same aside from Glimmer glaring at me from time to time aside from that everything was peachy.I finally decided to throw knives so I went to the knife station and grabbed three knives throwing them all at once they hit the three dummies the first was at the heart then the second was by the head and the third by the chest.I haven't lost my touch after all.

"So you haven't lost your touch after all huh Jessica?"Someone said from behind me and I turned around to see Clove

"Clove you know me to well wanna practice with me?"I asked she nodded and we went on a knife throwing spree

Then I suddenly heard Cato shouting at the male tribute from District 6

"You took my knife?"I heard Cato yell and Clove quickly went to him and so did the other careers

I examined the room and saw Thresh and Katniss grinning what are they all happy about?

I then looked at the direction they're looking at and saw Rue up by the netting at the ceiling

And I saw that she has Cato's knife smart little girl then I couldn't take the yelling much more so me being the mad lunatic person I am

I decided what to do I grabbed a knife and threw it by Cato the knife went in the middle of him and district 6 male tribute the knife missed them but it hit the wall

All eyes are again on me am I to pretty that they can't take their eyes off me?I saw Cato's face all worried and sorry

The moment was quickly ruined by me of course I went back to my room to cool of some steam those guys are annoying...

It was already night time and I already had dinner I'm a light eater promise.I couldn't sleep so here I am by the roof again with me hugging my knees. I just love on how the wind blows on my face when I heard the elevator doors open I was kind of expecting it to be Cato so imagine my surprise when I saw Marvel.

"District 7 am I surprise to see you here"Marvel said leaning on a wall

"I have a name you know?"I said

"Jessica Woods the girl who volunteered for her step sister Willow Woods used to live at district 2 and is or was best friends with Cato and Clove"He said and I stood there shocked how could he know so much about me.

"First of all how do you know so much about me second of all are you a stalker or something and third it's is still best friends with Cato and Clove"I asked said and kind of demanded.

"So is it still an is in being Cato's girlfriend?"He asked and I could feel the blushes creeping up on me again

"You didn't answer my question"I said

"Neither did you"He said

"You're annoying"I said

"You're cute"He !He thinks I'm cute me Jessica Woods cute huh?

"Wh-What?I said

"Well see ya later Jessi-Jess"He said and went to the elevator

"Don't call me that"I said and I saw him laughing before the elevator doors closed

"The nerve of that guy"I 's annoying a whole new level of annoying I taught Cato was a bother but him he's worse.

I suddenly felt arms wrap around me I taught it would be Marvel again but I saw Cato I quickly placed my hands on his which were on my tummy.

"Is it still an is?"He asked

"What do you mean?"I asked totally confused

"Are you still my girlfriend?"He asked and I was so happy he couldn't see me cause I was blushing like mad

"Depends on you"I said trying to keep my composure

"Then if I say you are still my girlfriend would you agree"He asked

"Of course"I said

"Then you still and will always be my girlfriend"He said "Do you still have it?"He asked

"Yup"I said knowing it means the necklace

"Give it to me"He said "Why?" I asked

"I want to replace it I have another one here"He said and showed me a necklace it was like my other one it has a rose inside the

difference is it has a heart on top

"Wow it's beautiful what's it made of but why replace the old one now?"I asked

"It's made of diamond I wanted to replace the old one cause it might break during the hunger games"Cato said

"Thanks but I'll keep the old one it's been through a lot with me"I said

"Sure"Cato said then he started to put the other necklace on me

"Thank you"I said

"It's nothing"He said and kissed the back part of my head
