Gale's point of view
I step quietly through the forest while Rory follows quietly behind me. A rabbit unknowingly steps a couple of feet away from us. I tap Rory on the shoulder even though I don't really have to since he already sees it. He lifts his bow and aims the bow at the rabbit and shoot it missing the eye by an inch but still killing it. "Good job." I praise him as I walk over to pick up the rabbit. "Not as good as Katniss though. I flinch, not noticeable to him. Katniss…the name that makes my heart aches every time I hear it. "You'll get better. " I say shrugging. He nods not believing me.
"Gale..do you still..miss Katniss?" Rory asks me. I frown. "She was my closest friend, what do you think?" I reply. Rory nods and pauses. "Do you still love her?" he asks me. I nod slowly. Rory frowns. "Well I guess you should trying to stop since she's marrying Peeta." Rory says.
I sigh and pull out the arrow from the rabbit and hand it to Rory. "We should be getting back it's getting dark." I say pointing at the darkening sky and put the rabbit in the game bag with out other catches of the day. Rory nods and starts walking back towards out house. I follow him.
Once we reach the house Posy comes running out with a grin spread across her face. "Gale! Gale, guess what!" Posy exclaimed as she raced across the yard and stopped next to us, a letter clutched in her hand. "What?" I asked her kneeing down. Posy grin grew. "Katniss invited us to her wedding!" She squealed and held out the letter. I looked it over and nodded sadly. "That's cool." I say to her as she bounces with excitement. Posy handed me the letter and I read it carefully. It said it was to Hazelle, Posy, Rory, and Vick. I hand the letter back to her and stand up. "We should go back inside." I say and start walking towards the door. Posy nods and follows me and Rory.
As soon as I get in the house I set my game bag next to mom. "Rory caught this himself." I say. Mom looks into the bag which holds three rabbits and two squirrels. Mom smiles. "Another good hunter in the family I see." She smiles at Rory even though it took us all day to catch them. Mom kissing me on the cheek and hands me a letter. When I look at it I frown.
It's a wedding invention to Katniss's wedding. "I'm not going." I say to my mother. Mom looks at me. "You should, she wants you there and you were her best friend for 5 years before you two went your sepret ways!" My mother yells at me. "I know but I really don't want to see her get married to Peeta." I sigh. My mother's face softened. "I understand but still you should go." I nod my head. "Well I'll make dinner. You should go hang out with Posy or something." She tells me which I nod to and walk away. I talk to Rory for a little bit and then we eat dinner and go to bed.
Four days later
I yawn as I walk back from work. It was Wednesday night. I walk in my house and instantly Posy runs up to me. "You got something in the mail." She tells me pulling me in the kitchen.
Mother was leaning against the table as Posy walked in pulling me by the sleeve. "I suppose Posy already told you got something?" Mother says smiling. I nod and she hands me a letter. I examine the letter over my stomach churning as I read who it's from. "What is it!" Post asks me. "It's a letter from Katniss." I say starting to open the letter and taking it out.
Dear Gale
I'm sorry I haven't written you for so long. I guess I was just mad. Mad that you left, mad that the bomb could possibly be your design but then I realized that I wasn't mad at you, but at myself more then anything. Thank you so much for telling me about Prim's monument and leaving the flowers. Next time you'll have to leave some for me. And no Haymitch's house hasn't been staying clean. And yes I'm a lot better then I first was. I miss Prim and you everyday. Even though I denied missing you for a long time. Haymitch is suppose to be looking after me but it is Greasy Sae who ends up making sure I'm feed. Her Granddaughter is really nice and have you seen Annie and Finnick's son? He's so cute. I went out in the woods yesterday and I went to our rock. It felt to big without your body next to mine. How's my mother doing? Did you get my invention? Please, I'm begging you too come. I don't think I could do it without you. I really really miss you and your family. You should come by one day.
Love always
Katniss.
"What did she say!" Posy asked once I got done reading it. I hand the letter to her and she grabs it and starts reading it. She grins when she finishes. "You should go to her wedding! And could we visit her one day!" Posy asks. "Well, I thought about going back for a week or two." Mother tells her. "We'd have to leave Gale behind, besides for Friday, Saturday and Sunday." Mother says again. Posy nods. "I say we should!" she grins. I smirk at her and ruffle her hair. She giggles and pulls her arms up, telling me she wants a hug. I lean down and wrap my arms around her as she wraps her arms around me. "I miss Katniss." She sighs into my ear. "I know." I tell her. She unwraps her arms and I do the same and stand up. "so when is Katniss's wedding. "In a few weeks." Mother tells her. Posy nods and grins. She grabs my by the arm and start pulling my into the other room.
"What are we doing?" I say walking behind her as she pulls on my sleeve. She turns around and looks at me. "Your going to Katniss's wedding right?" She asks me. I frown and shrug. "You going right!" she says narrowing her eyes at me making me laugh. "I don't know Posy." I sigh after laughing. "You are." She said firmly crossing her arms. "I don't think I am going Posy." I say to her. "You have to Gale! She needs you there!" she exclaimed. I sigh. "I don't want to go and your seven, I'm twenty two, I don't have to have this talk with you!" I exclaim. "I don't care! You need to go see her!" she says not giving up the fight. I sigh an bite my lip. "Listen Posy.." I star but she cuts me off. No YOU LISTEN GALE! You're her best friend, she needs you there!" She says almost yelling at me. "She needs you Gale." She says softer. I nod slowly, not happily but still I nod. "She don't need me, she can take care of herself." I finally say. "She still wants you there." Post sighed. I sigh and shake my head. "Listen, I'm going to go to my room." I say. She nods and I walk to my room. I find a piece of paper and start writing Katniss a letter.
