I Wish, a Hunger Games songfic

It was all Gale could do to not break the screen. He was in shock. HIS Catnip,

kissing Bread Boy. He sighed sadly, knowing how he didn't have a chance if she

made it back. The only thing he could think of is how that should be him...

Na na na na na na

Na na na na na na

He takes your hand

I die a little

I watch your eyes

And I'm in riddles

Why can't you look at me like that

Gale sighed, looking around. He knew that Katniss had no idea how he felt.. but

he loved her.

When you walk by

I try to say it

But then I freeze

And never do it

My tongue gets tied

The words gets trapped

He groaned inwardly, seeing Haymitchs' parachute being sent to them, and Peetas'

relaxed look of joy.

I hear the beat of my heart getting louder

Whenever I'm near you

But I see you with him slow dancing

Tearing me apart

Cause you don't see

Whenever you kiss him

I'm breaking,

Oh how I wish that was me

He felt a pair of eyes on him. Prim. She looked at him curiously.. as if she

knew. Then she turned back to the screen.

He looks at you

The way that I would

Does all the things, I know that I could

If only time, could just turn back

He looked away from the screen, not wanting to see them kiss yet again...

Cause I got three little words

That I've always been dying to tell you

He looked at Mrs. Everdeen, wondering how she felt about her daughter kissing

Peeta. She looked clearly distraught and sighed as Gale gave a slight smile.

But I see you with him slow dancing

Tearing me apart

Cause you don't see

Whenever you kiss him

I'm breaking,

Oh how I wish that was me

With my hands on your waist

While we dance in the moonlight

I wish it was me

That you call later on

Cause you wanna say good night

Cause I see you with him slow dancing

Tearing me apart

Cause you don't see

He had no words for what he was seeing. He loved her... but she loved him. The

boy with the bread. Peeta Mellark.

But I see you with him slow dancing

Tearing me apart

Cause you don't see

Whenever you kiss him

I'm breaking,

Oh how I wish

Oh how I wish

Oh how I wish, that was me

Gale sighed in relief as the screen went black, indicating the end if another

day of the games. He didn't know how long he could take seeing her with him. He

walked out with a single second glance.

Oh how I wish, that was me...
