Gale POV
I was with Prim, on the road towards the Justice building. Katniss was to concern by this big day; to say a Good Luck for her sister. But anyway, we saw that.. she wasn't the same.
"We are going to pick... I'm sure." Murmurs Prim, sadly.
"Don't think about that." I sigh, putting one of my arms around her shoulders.
"Gale, your name is there 62 times! I got 21 and Katniss don't even know."
"Why did you take all those extra?"
"Because, some family needs it."
I smile sadly and put her closer to me. Primrose had a big heart.
"But you know, she will know one day or the other." I say.
She lower her gaze; she knows I was right.
I was in my section waiting. The stress was growing. Haymitch, Peeta and Katniss were sitting beside our mayor. I know that Catnip was trying to find me, but I ignore her gaze. Just because of Peeta and the Games, we didn't see each other in months! I turn my head toward the fifteen section and found Prim. She had become a real sister for me when Katniss was on her victory tour. Our eyes lock together and she gave me a weak smile. I respond the same.
"Happy Hunger Games! And, make the odds be ever in your favor!" Says Effie happily.
Well, it pretty much, not my case.
"Like usual, ladies first."
She approaches the bowl where the names of Primrose are writing 21 times. The lady picks up one and returns to her microphone. She opens the envelope and shout:
"Primrose Everdeen!"
I sigh, angry. Why her?! I see Katniss stop breathing and Peeta takes her hand. Prim walks all the way to the scene, head up, her eyes sparking of tears.
"And now, it the turn to the youngs men."
Her joy seems to have disappeared a little. She remakes the same thing and says:
"Gale Hawthorne."
I knew it, I freaking, knew it. I take a swallow of air and I go on stage; joining Primrose. My heart I was bouncing hard in my chest. What was going to happen to my family? Are they all gonna die? But, I don't let any emotions win me, keeping a straight face. If the Capitole wanted to destroy me, they will have to kill me; unless I will fight until the end.
"Ladies and Gentleman, the tributes for the 75th Hunger Games; Gale Hawthrone and Primrose Everdeen."
I know, it all starting.
