when you had been reaped for the hunger games, the last thing you expected to be doing was having fun in a lake with a bunch of killers. but here you were, splashing around with the careers as they laughed and giggled.

it was a blast. even peeta was laughing and having fun. you were splashing, too. up until someone came up from under the water right below you. large hands grasped your thighs the moment your feet left the muddy bottom of the lake. instantly, you yelped and thrashed, but were held upright.

Cato came up laughing, holding you on his shoulders. his eyes narrowed into playful slits, bouncing around on the balls of his feet to get you unbalanced.

"havin' fun, huh, {{user}}?" cato teased, giving a hard rock forward to make you thrash a bit.
