Peeta stormed into Gale's house, slowly. "Oh Gods, Gale! Katniss is dead as a doornail! She slipped and fell in the snow at district 12. I'm so sad that I can't do anything about it!" He was crying and so there were tears everywhere. On his face and also on his hands.

Gale's face now also looked as sad as Peeta's. He cried, "Oh no, now I feel even worse about everything. I'm so upset! I wish I could make the pain go away!" tears rolled down his face and down his bare chest as he was shirtless.

"How have you been?" Peeta said, his tone a melancholy mix between incredibly depressed and interested.

Gale shrugged and took his trousers off casually, "I was good until I heard about Katniss. You look good, Peeta. That district 12 air's doing you good, dawg."

"Wanna get drunk?" Peeta asked, waggling his eyebrows in a suggestive manner.

"I do. Let's." and then they did.

"Gods, I'm so drunk, Peeta. It's brought to the surface my blatant homo-erotic feelings for you. Do you want to engage is intercourse with me now Katniss out of the picture?"

But Peeta was already ready and had moved round to his but-hole were he was poised to take action.

"Take me!" Gale said and then Peeta did, for a while, until the sex ended and they had both fully ejaculated their semen.

They then fell asleep, not even remotely phased by their gigantic shift in character.

When Gale awoke stared at Peeta and remembered their hot night of love making that they had had last night.

Peeta's eyes fluttered open, like a blue butterfly's wings.

"Morning sleepy," said Gale, fondly to the man he was now inexplicably in love with.

Peeta smiled, unimaginatively, "Last night was great. Maybe we don't need Katniss after all?"

Gale winked seductively and not at all stupidly. "Answers point to no. Peeta . . . we've been together a while..."

Peeta nodded.

"...Will you marry me?"

Finally, Gale was asking him! He could hardly believe his luck. He both wanted to jump up and down and sing and make creamy love to Gale all day long. He chose to do both and they jumped up and did it while they celebrated!
