Delly's POV

As I looked inside the house, I saw Gale try to kiss Katniss, then she pushed him into the wall. Hard. And for some strange reason, this worried me.

Then, just when I thought Gale and I were a team, I saw Peeta reach out to him and offer help.

See, but what made me mad was that he accepted. We were supposed to be rebelling against this whole Peeta/Katniss thing. We were supposed to help them realize that they loved us, not each other.

So I ran to the house and burst through the door. This startled me, because truthfully, I didn't even have a plan.

Everyone stared at me in surprise for a while, and then Gale finally spoke up.

"Uh… Delly? What are you doing?" Gale asked.

"You know perfectly well what I'm doing, Gale Hawthorne. I am doing what you are supposed to be doing." I hissed.

Then the moment I lunged for Katniss, a hand grabbed my shoulder and steadied me. I glanced over and saw that it had been Gale who had grabbed me.

"Delly, look at Katniss. Really, is she all that different from you? She loves Peeta. She loves her family. She loves her home and is proud of who she is." Gale gently whispered to me.

I did look at her. I saw a girl who had saved so many lives, even my own. A girl who had lost almost everyone she loved, trying to save people she barely knew. I saw that she wasn't as big and tough as she looked on TV, and that she was only a eighteen year old, practically a child.

Maybe I misjudged her.

I looked at Gale again, and asked him to let go of me.

"Katniss, I'm sorry. Sorry I misjudged you. Sorry I didn't appreciate that you save my life." I said cautiously.

"Delly, I'm sorry. I should have known that you had feelings for Peeta. Sorry I didn't consider how you would feel. But I have a strong feeling that you'll fin happiness elsewhere." She glanced at Gale's hand lingering above my shoulder.

I blushed.

"Well, now that everything's cleared up…" Peeta said.

"Maybe we should celebrate the engagement of our two best friends." Gale said.

I saw Katniss smile slightly, then speak in a clear voice "Or maybe we're celebrating something more." She looked at Peeta, seeing if he got the message.

"New beginnings?" Gale asked.

"Sure." Peeta replied.

I hope that keeps you satisfied! Not the end of the story! Keep reviewing!
