Dear Readers! This is my new story about Gale and Madge finding eachother in District 2! it's... kind of depressing! i felt really emotional when i wrote this, hope you guys like it! tell me what you think of it! Love Hannah! (:

Gale POV

District 2, at the Drunken Oar.

"Hey, another shot over here." the bartender brings me over some more glasses. I've been here for about an hour now. Wasting away.

I killed Prim, I've lost Katniss, and now I'm alone. I've been in District 2 for about a month now, I was fired from my job and now I do nothing but drink and pick up hoes. I'm disgusted with myself, but I have no one in my life. My family didn't even want to move out here with me. Rory can barely even look at me, he loved Prim so much, and I destroyed her, trying to save everyone else.

"Hey cutie." some slutty chick says to me. I grunt at her in response.

"I'm angel, wanna have some fun?" her plastic face asks me. Usually I would accept the offer, pretend it's Katniss, or just take my anger on her. But tonight all I want to do is think.

"Piss off." I mumble to her,

"Sorry honey, couldn't here you."

"I said PISS OFF!" I yell,

"Fuck you!" she slaps my face and stomps away in her 10 inch High heel shoes. Hmph, Bitch….

Madge POV

I'm alone, all alone, with nobody to love.

After the planes of the Capital destroyed my home, my father and I barely made it out alive. We had to leave my mother behind, to die, along with all my memories. We made it to the Capitol along with some Peacekeepers. We lived there until the war was about done, we fled to District 2 because the Mockingjay was making her descend on the Capitol. (So the news said…) We had to leave, so my father said, I was one of Katniss's closets friends, we didn't want to take any chances of being caught.

On our way to D2 we ran into some trouble. Big trouble. We were jumped, my father was killed, and I was raped. I made it to District 2 barely standing on my feet, starved to the bone, in blood soaked pants. A man took me in, he was nice enough to feed me, and give me a home. He seemed like a nice man, but I was wrong. So wrong. For exchange for all the nice things he has done for me. I give him my body. Whenever he wants. When he comes home from work, or when he's just in the mood. I want out, I don't know who I am, no one even knows who Madge Undersee is anymore, nobody even knows I'm still alive. Everyone from District 12 is either dead, or in District 13 living their happy carefree lives. And I'm here, rotting in my own body, all alone, with nobody to love.

I find myself crying in the corner of the small apartment, the man who I don't even know his name, is at work. He will be back soon though, it's almost midnight. When he gets back he'll take me to his room, make me cry, scream, plead, and be done with me. Maybe if I take a walk it will clear my head, I will be back before the man gets home, so I don't get in trouble or beaten.

Everything in District 2 is 'ocean' themed. Since they're the fishing District, they're trying to be creative. Personally I think it's just childish. As I'm walking down the long hallway I pass the Drunken Oar. Maybe one drink won't hurt, they don't even check your age anyways.

As I'm walking to the bar, a sign stops me in my tracks. Help Wanted. is painted in red. This could be it, if I make enough money I can get myself a small apartment, I'll be free. I'm walking up to the counter and a fat greasy man is wiping it down. He scares me a bit, I've learned the hard way the you can never judge a book from it's cover. Maybe I should turn back….

"Oh Hello there young lady!" he gives me a toothless smile, o.k maybe I was exaggerating a bit, but his teeth, it looks like he has about…. 7 or 8?

"Hi, I would like to fill out a job application." if I look confident enough maybe I will look older, I'm only 17, seventeen year olds aren't suppose to be working at bars.

"Great! You can start now!"

"Really? Don't I need an interview or something?"

"Well, usually we would but, business is slow, and no young girls want this job." I can imagine why, the other waitresses aren't as young as me but they're not ugly. The scumbags in this bar only come for 2 things, to drink and get some. I don't care, I need this, this could be my last chance.

"I'll take it!" I say with a smile.

Gale POV

Drinking and wasting away I look around the bar, a young blonde girl walks in, she shouldn't be here. It looks like she could be 16 or 17. Yea, sure I may be only 19 but, I was in the war, I have my ways…. Looks like the sexy blonde girl is getting a job here, she goes into the backroom with the fat manager. Pssh, finally a hot waitress I can tease.

The blonde girl walks out in her uniform already, her sexy uniform, her high miniskirt is just at the right height, showing her nice legs and fish nets. They really know how to make a guy happy in this bar. The manager will probably have her practice. I think I should be her first customer. I call her over.

"What would you like to drin- Hey!" she swipes my greedy hands away from her thigh,

"I'm sorry baby, I couldn't help myself." she scoffs,

"You're a pig." she looks over her shoulder and sees her boss eyeing her, don't want to be fired do ya honey. I think to myself.

"Just tell me what you want." she asks me annoyed, I smirk, it's fun to piss her off. It turns me on.

"All I want is you baby." I pull her skirt so she's closer to me, she's turning bright red in the face.

"C'mon, give me a break I really don't need this." we make eye contact, and for some weird reason her eyes start to bulge.

"Oh my god." she gasps.

"What is it baby?"

"Gale?" how the hell does she know me! "Gale Hawthorne?" her breaths quicken, "Oh my god, your alive?"

"How do you know me…." it hits me, the Mayors Daughter! "Holy shit, you're the Mayors daughter!" I let go of her skirt in an instance, how embarrassing. The girl that I hated, envied, and was so rude to, right in front of me, and me! Thinking all those nasty thoughts and treating her like some slut. I can feel my face get hot in embarrassment.

She laughs, "Hm, that's all you remember huh." her eyes are watering now. She starts walking away,

"Madge wait!" I call out and grab her hand, wow I remembered her name…

"I have to go!" she swipes it away fiercely and mumbles something to her boss and is out the door.

Madge POV

My god, Gale Hawthorne, GALE HAWTHORNE! Drinking in a bar? Calling me baby? Touching me? The boy I was in love with, maybe still in love with? I can't even think right now, I can already feel the tears forming in my eyes. I start to turn.

"Madge wait!" he grasps my hands, oh my god he remembers my name! I can't even think right now!

"I have to go!" I smack his hand hard and run for the door. "I will see you in the morning Mario!" I call out to my boss. I'm running as fast as I can, what is he doing here? Shouldn't he be with Katniss? In District 13? I can't breathe, I stop and fall to the floor on all fours. Panting and crying, why am I crying? Maybe because I thought everyone in my past was dead? I don't even know.

I check my watch. Shit! The man is probably home, he's going to kill me. I start running to my room again. Damnit, the door is locked, which means he's home. I knock silently on the door, let's hope he's drunk enough not to care of how late I am. The man opens the door, his eyes are blood shot, and he's pissed.

"Where the hell have you been!" he grabs the collar of my shirt and pulls me in.

"I-I'm, sorry I went ou-" SLAP! His rough hand hits the side of my face, hard. I cry out.

"What are you wearing? You whore, were you tossing it around or something?"

"No, I got a job." I say cupping my red cheek with my hands. He laughs.

"A job? Why the hell would you need that." he says while unbuttoning my shirt.

"To get away from this hell hole!" I push his hands away from me and walk past him.

"Where do you think you're going?" he grabs my hair, I cry out.

"Let go of me! I'm done with you!" I'm struggling now, he's always been too strong to stop.

"Oh you're not going anywhere." he pushes me to the ground and lunges on top of me. I'm screaming but I doubt anyone can hear me.

Gale POV

Madge…. Madge Undersee? I thought, I thought she was dead. I thought most of the people of District 12 was dead. I need to talk to her, no…. I need to apologize, I was way out of line. She probably thinks I'm some nasty pervert, and I don't want that. Maybe she can help me get out of this great depression I'm having. Or maybe she will want nothing to do with me. I get up and start moving towards the counter.

"Mario was it?" I ask the greasy manager.

"Yeah, what's up, need another drink.?" I shake my head no, the room is already spinning as it is.

"The girl, who just left, what's her room number?"

"Now, now… I don't need you stalking my waitresses."

"I need to talk to her." I demand, this guy is starting to piss me off.

"You were a little touchy, touchy with her… don't know if I can trust you." that sets me off. I grab his collar and pull him towards me.

"Listen hear Mario…. Just give me the damn number and I'll leave you alone." I narrow my eyes at him.

"Ok, ok! Jeez… Number…. 234B." I release him from my grasps. God! If I wasn't so goddamn drunk I could find this goddamn room so goddamn easy! I think to myself angrily. Why the hell am I even looking for her again? I obviously upset her… maybe I should let the prissy little princess have her own little girl time. After that thought I'm immediately ashamed. It's not her fault, I was a bastard to her, and maybe she has changed. Maybe she's not a spoiled brat like she used to be. Maybe she never was.

Finally, on floor B. Now to run 234 doors to find her as I'm running I barf in a garbage can near by. I should be sleeping, or messing around with someone by now. But I guess those aren't my priorities tonight.

"Your not going anywhere!" I hear a deep voice down the long hallway. I hear a thud, two thuds, and muffled screams. I think it's Madge!

"Madge!" I call out, all I hear in responses are more screaming. I book it down the hallway towards the terrifying cries. Here it is room 234, and the doors locked. Shit! I start banging my fist hard against the door. "Madge! Are you in there?"

"Gale! Help me!" she sounds so scared, I back up and kick my foot hard against the door. I've done this kind of things many times during the war. This was a piece of cake. Inside lies Madge, just about shirtless and her fish nets ripped. And a big hefty man on top of her already with his shirt off.

"Get off of her!" I growl at the man,

"Fuck off and mind your own damn business boy." he hisses back. Nobody calls Gale Hawthorne boy… I launch myself at the man and shove him off of half naked Madge. She covers herself, I don't get a good look because the perv is on his feet ready to attack. I smirk at him, it sets him off and he throws a punch. Easily dodged by yours truly I kick him right in the ass and he plunges towards the wall. Head inside the wall the man lies unconscious.

I look over at Madge, she's shaking, violently. I don't know what I should do, comfort her, or help her up. She probably doesn't want a nasty guy like me touchin' her. It's worth a try. "Madge?" I try to sound soothing, like how I would talk to Posy. My little sister. She looks up at me with her big deep blue eyes. Tears silently rolling down her cheeks. I kneel down beside her, "Are you hurt? Did he do anything," she laughs…. I'm lost now.

"Oh, he's done plenty." she whispers. She makes a fist with her hands, what has she gotten herself into? I put my arms around her, this is so awkward. "Thanks." she says in a shaky voice, "You can go now, I'm fine."

I laugh, "You're so funny, do you really think I'm going to leave you here?"

"Gale you barely even know me."

"Well I can get to know you." I state sternly, making eye contact with her beautiful eyes. She smiles at me, I smile back. This is weird, so weird.

"Do you think he's dead?" she points to the bastard in the wall.

"Nah… probably will be out for awhile though." she laughs lightly. "C'mon let's get u outta here." I help her up and she instantly turns red. I'm even more confused now, I look down, I forgot she was…. Just about naked.

"Turn away!" she pushes my face the other way and I can't help but laugh. I hear some shuffling and she pokes my back. I'm guessing it's a gesture that I can look now. She's huddled in a blanket, blushing like there's no tomorrow. We walk out of the room and walk down the hallway. With my arms around her shoulder.

Plz don't hate on Gale for being a sick pervert at the beginning xD he will be much much better later! So... Review and Tell me what you think! :D
