I do not own the Hunger Games

The Wedding Day

KPOV

I gnawed on my thumb nail. I couldn't breath. I was so nervous. I have killed people and faced terrible monsters. But I couldn't get married? Of coarse not. I peeked out of the door. Everyone who knew Peeta and I were there.

"Katniss."

I turned around to see my mother's sad eyes looking at me. I ran to her and hugged her tight. She smelled of pine needles and warm wood.

"Oh mom! I've missed you so much!" I almost cried.

"I missed you too baby. Now, let me get a look at you." She turned me around and looked at my dress. It was simple yet extravagant.

The dress touched the floor but didn't get in the way. It looked like something that belonged inside of a fairytale. Hell! This is a fairytale. I just couldn't believe that i was getting married.

"Don't cry okay? We don't want your makeup to come off now do we?" My mom laughed half-heartedly. "Now, I'm going out there and someone is here to see you."

"Who?" I asked questioningly.

"It's a secret." My mother winked at me.

I sat in the room for a little while longer. I was starving. I patted my dress down a little. Cinna had left it for me like he knew I would wear this actual dress when I marry Peeta. oh how I miss Cinna so much!

I heard a knock at the door and someone say my name. I told them to come in.

All of a sudden in comes Gale and Beetee. I ran up to Beetee and gave him a huge hug. I smiled at him.

"Hello, Katniss. You look stunning. And this is a very special day for you. I am to walk you down the aisle. Everything is in place and looks marvelous. Now, I will meet you outside in five minutes, okay?" All I could do is nod.

Then Beetee looked up at Gale and left the room. I stared at the wall. None of us broke the silence first. Finally Gale came up to me and started to cry.

"I... am... so... sorry," He finally sobbed out.

I finally looked up at him. My eyes flashed with all of my emotions that I was feeling. Anger. Pain. Hurt. Sadness. Hatred. Disgust. Betrayal. Abandonment. I felt it all.

"You left me alone. Right after you killed my sister. Right after all of it! You killed my sister and you expect me to forgive you?" I almost screamed at him.

"I didn't mean to Katniss. She wasn't supposed to go in. And I had a job to do. I just couldn't stay. I'm so sorry." Gale broke down again. I wanted to comfort him. I wanted to pull him into my arms and make the hurt go away. But I had another life waiting for me.

"Katniss, don't marry him. Marry me. We can live together in the woods. We both know the woods so well. Marry me and not the bread boy." Gale's grey eyes burned into mine.

"I love Peeta, Gale. He was there for me no matter what. I trust him. He loves me. And I love him. I'm sorry." Gale just stared at me. He shook his head and walked over to the door.

"He doesn't love you But know this, i do love you. I always have and always will. We are the Seam people. He was a townie. He knows nothing about our life. Never forget that." Then Gale walked back over to me, took me into his arms and kissed me. His lips were warm and sweet. I started to melt. Then I remembered Peeta. I pushed him off of me and glared at him.

"Good-bye, Gale," I stared at the floor.

He walked over to the door and while he was leaving he said, "Oh, and by the way, I'm staying for the wedding and staying in town for a few weeks. Just thought you should know." Then he left.

I was so angry that I punched the wall and put a good sized hole in it. I let out an exasperated sigh and put something in front of the hole so no one would see it.

Beetee walked in then and asked if I was ready. I nodded.

We walked out of the room and music began to play. I listened to the tune. I recognized it immediately. It was the song my father used to sing me to bed when I was little. Beetee led me to a large archway and we looked in. Peeta was standing at the altar and beside him was Haymitch. On the other side of the altar was Annie. She was still and looking off into space. She looked lost without Finnick. Poor Annie.

Beetee ushered me forward. When everyone saw that Beetee and I entered, they turned towards us and stood.

A smile broke across Peeta's face when he saw me. I just smiled as bright as he did. He looked nice in his white suit. His blue eyes shone with so much love, it made me want to run up there and kiss him without the ceremony. But Beetee kept me right where I was. Peeta was the only person I saw. But I did see a movement in the corner of my eyes. I quickly looked over to see Gale staring at me. I ignore him and just looked at Peeta. Were his eyes so blue? And his hair so blonde and perfectly styled to look messy? He looked so handsome.

Finally we came up to the altar. Beetee gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek. Then he handed me off to Peeta. Peeta's strong, warm hand engulfed mine. We both face the altar. Beetee moved to where he was standing right behind it.

"Ahem. We are gathered here today to join this couple. Now if anybody objects say so now or I shall marry them."

"I object!" We all turned to look at Gale. He was standing and looking angry.

"Sit down!" I looked at him furious. He was not going to ruin my wedding day.

"No. I love you Katniss. And Im not going to lose you again to this guy." Gale started to come near us. Peeta grabbed me and pushed me behind him.

"You should really leave now Gale. If Katniss doesn't want you here then you shouldn't be here." Peeta said in a surprisingly calm voice.

I looked up at Peeta and smiled. I leaned my head against his arm and held his hand tight. I never wanted to lose him. Ever.

"Katniss," I looked up at Gale," Look Katniss, I know that I have screwed up. But if you give me a chance then I know that I can do better. Please Katniss."

I looked down at Katniss. She had a mask on her face. I actually thought that she was going to leave me for him. But I knew she loved me without having to tell me. She pressed her body against mine and stared at Gale. God he was annoying.

"Leave Gale. I love Peeta and Im going to marry him today. And you cant tell me that I cant. This is my wedding. And Im marrying the guy I love. Good-bye Gale." Katniss gripped my hand tighter. I was so relieved she told him to leave.

"You're making a huge mistake," was all he said before he stormed out of the building.

"Alrighty then. Shall we continue?" Beetee said, drawing all of our attention towards him. Both me and Katniss nodded.

"Okay. Peeta, Do you take Katniss Everdeen to be your wife?"

"I do."

"And Katniss, do you take Peeta Mellark to be your husband?"

There was a short pause before she answered. I thought she was going to say no and run after Gale. But then she said," I do."

I breathed a sigh of relief. I was so happy.

"You may now kiss your bride," Beetee looked at me and smiled. I looked at Katniss and smiled. She was now mine. And I was hers. I bent down and kissed her. Her lips were warm and soft.

Peeta's lips burned into mine. I loved him so much. My pause made everyone worry though. Even me. I was going to say no. But I had the only guy I truly loved right here by my side.

Please review and tell me what you think!(: Thanks!
