Forbidden Longing
As Katniss lay there all she could think about was her forbidden longing for Gale, her supposed 'cousin'. Well she had had enough of this story but couldn't say anything as her family would probably be brutally killed.
She thought about Gale more than she did about Peeta. Did this mean she loved Gale?
She was so confused about her feelings. Peeta was kind to her and help her through one of the most excruciating and painful time of her life, The Games. But now she hated him so much it hurt. Why didn't he just kill her when there was just the two of them left? At least then she would be rid of this pain, confusion and suffering. It would all be over. No more lying about Gale, No more trying not to hurt Peeta and no more confusing feelings about Peeta or Gale.
Who should she choose? Peeta her friend and supporter in The Games and her kind of boyfriend. Or Gale someone who has always been there for her since… forever? She knew she had to pick but the question was who? Immersed in her own thoughts she didn't realise Gale had stepped into the room and was watching her. When Katniss realised he was stood there she went to call out. However when Gale noticed she was trying to call for him he decided to walk away. Katniss noticed the pain in his face. Was he hurt by her? Was he reminded painfully that she might have picked Peeta over him? Or was he disappointed with her for not choosing to tell him about her feelings? She decided best not to think about this and try to pick. It was hard but eventually…
She knew who to pick…
