A/N: Merry Christmas everyone! Here is my gift to you, an update! This is a bonus chapter, because it was requested.

Also, thanks to Ru Tsuna, Gizzygirl, and HecateA for reviewing last chapter!

Gale Part Two

Gale,

Maybe I have no right to write to you. I know we weren't exactly friends. I guess there is some things that I just wanted you to know. I wasn't even sure if I should do this. I obviously am though. Something's just can't go unsaid.

Hopefully when you're reading this, Katniss is standing right next to you. If not, I want you to know I did everything in my power to keep her alive. It was never my attention to live in the first place when I heard the Quarter Quell theme. It was my goal, even if it wasn't hers, that no matter what I had to do, it would be her alive.

Also, you should know that Katniss really does love you. Her actions speak louder than her words do. She might be too shy to say it out loud, but I can tell. It seems pretty obvious to me anyway. Plus, you make her happy. That's the only thing that matters to me.

Sadly, I know that Katniss' goal, for some reason, is to save and keep me alive. I'm going to try to persuade her differently though. Convince her she's making a mistake. That she needs to return to you and Prim. I just hope it's enough.

So be patient. She'll come around. I mean, she can't hide her true feelings forever.

All that I ask is that you keep her happy. Keep her safe from President Snow. I don't really mind her choosing you over me anymore. I'm just happy she considers me a friend.

If she's happy, I'm happy, and I know you can give her that.

-Peeta

A/N: See, even Peeta is sweet to Gale! How about your christmas gift to me be a review? ;)

Also, even though I have the basic outline planned for the rest of this story, I'm taking request. There is no promise I will actually write it, but I will thank about it.
