Thanks for your review, and Coraline Olivin this chapters especially for you.
I couldnt think of a better way to do it than to give a whole chapter up for Gale. So all you Gale lovers - this one's for you.
I've put this song in because i just think it fits perfectly. It's - That's what friends are for by Elton John -
Gale.
Gale Hawthorne.
Gale; my best friend in the world.
"Gale, take a walk with me," I beckoned him,
"Sure, Catnip," he poked me playfully in the ribs.
We walked far away from the hubub that was going down in the ring. We still had twenty minutes to go.
"Let me sing to you, Gale."
And I sang:
And I never thought I'd feel this way
And as far as I'm concerned
I'm glad I got the chance to say
That I do believe I love you
And if I should ever go away
Well then close your eyes and try
To feel the way we do today
And then if you can remember
Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for
Well you came in loving me
And now there's so much more I see
And so by the way I thank you
Oh and then for the times when we're apart
Well then close your eyes and know
The words are coming from my heart
And then if you can remember
Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
In good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for
Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for
Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for
"Katniss, it's beautiful," he bent his head to kiss me, and i responded. It was just Gale and me, against the Capitol. He was my best friend, but i didnt know if i wanted any more. He walked away, and left me for the last ten minutes.
I went back to thinking.
Gale, I love you. Gale your my best friend.
In two days were gonna be fighting to the death. I don't know what to do about this. I hope that if I die; you try with all your might to win. And if you die, i promise I'll do the same for you. One of us needs to win, Gale. Otherwise our families will starve. Hazelle, Vick, Posy and Rory; Gale they need you. My mother and Prim. They need me. I promise that if you die, and i win, I'll take care of them all.
I was done thinking now. I walked back to where Gale, Cinna and another woman; who I assumed was Portia, were standing.
Cinna and Portia fussed over us and helped us into the chariot. I grabbed Gales hand, but he shook it off and wound his arm round my waist.
Haymitch bounded over to us, shouting something very loudly, but I couldnt hear what.
"Make the crowd love you, You'll get sponsors," he told us. Then he went away.
"Gale, promise me one thing," i ordered.
"Anything, Catnip, anything"
"If I die in the arena, please, you have to win. For me and for our families. And I'll do the same for you."
"I promise." And he kissed me again, before the cameras caught anything.
The anthem of Panem began to play.
The hunger games were really beginning now. In two days I'll be in a hovercraft headed for the arena.
Headed for my death.
Okay, so whaddya think - hit the green button guys. revieww :D for me.
Remember this chapter is for Coraline Olivin.
