Cato X Reader One-Shots, Preferences, and Headcanons

If Cato was Your Mentor

Hi there. I'm doing more chapters on here because why not. School is pain and I know imma fail anyway sooooo (Mainly cause English won't let me submit fanfics for assignments smh)

This will be in headcanon form!

Fun fact: The previous chapter (bad ending of Reapings was originally going to have you come back home insane, and sent away to the arena. I could do that as another bad ending-

❥Cato and you were originally acquaintances/semi friends before his Huger Games

❥You two could get along and have a good conversation

❥But other than that there wasn't much connection between the two of you

❥Now he's your mentor

❥He had to act formal a lot because of your district partner and such

❥But he wanted to make sure you get out alive

❥Problem was that you didn't really seem tough when you went to the top of the Justice Building

❥You never really shown anyone your skills during training

❥And when you were at the academy in District 2 you didn't really show a talent for any of the weapons. You seemed to just get the hang of them.

❥You were literally a mini Johanna

❥Because even when Cato pinned you to the wall and demanded you tell him why you were hiding your skills, you said nothing.

❥Oh boy

❥Cato was a little upset but couldn't help but admire your feistiness

❥He at first thought you were hopeless and you wouldn't get any sponsors because you never went to the weapons

❥But when he saw your 11 he was wondering what you did to wow the game makers

❥So when he got to train you separately he went to spar with you

❥The first three times he was easily pinning you to the ground

❥You wanted to use weapons, but Cato refused until you could at least pin him or catch him off guard

❥You rolled your eyes in response

❥It took Cato a lot to not get mad at you

❥But when he went to attack you once more, you instantly had him on the ground, as you straddled him with a knife against his throat

❥He was shooketh

❥"I said no weapons"

❥"You said no weapons for sparing. Not for pinning someone down." You grinned slyly.

❥You got up and twirled your knife around your fingers, extending a hand to Cato

❥"Show me more of your skills." He demanded, smirking a little

❥You shook your head. "Can't, otherwise the secret will be out."

❥He had no clue what this 'secret' was until the bloodbath.

❥When he was with the crowd, his ears almost broke when he the ones cheering for you started screeching in excitement.
