Chapter 7
Today is my first day in my new apartment with Peeta. Our apartment is a bit big completed with what things I bought and some things my mom passed on to me. Today, Prim is coming over. She really doesn't understand that I moved in with Peeta because I really love him. She thinks I love Gale and that I moved in with Peeta because we both couldn't afford to pay rent by ourselves. I plan to tell her everything today while Peeta is at his new job. Peeta is taking a job as a physical therapist. He studied physical therapy all through college so I think it won't be a hard job for him. I can't deny it but I'm a bit nervous on what she's going to say about me loving Peeta. The doorbell rings, I open the door and hug Prim. I missed her. I lead her to the kitchen table and begin telling her about my relationship with Peeta.
I could figure out that Prim was about to explode. And the next thing you know, she does. "What the heck are you thinking? Peeta may be sweet and be an angel but he is not meant for you. Gale is. He's been with you since the day you were born and always had loved you. He probably broke off his marriage with Madge to be with you." Before I can say anything, Prim storms off. I run after her and stop when I hear her calling someone saying," Gale, Katniss broke up with the Mellark kid, go get her." And then hangs up the phone.
I decide to ignore what just happened and walk to Peeta's office. While walking, I spot Gale and decide I should talk to him and stop this nonsense. I get to Gale and before I can say anything, Gale says," Hey, I got Prims' call about your break up and I know it's not true. You would break his heart." I tell him," Ya, I didn't break up with him. It was all Prim. Hey, I just want to tell you to please stop trying to make us a couple." Gale just kisses me and says, "This is goodbye then," and walks away. I turn around and I find Peeta standing there as he watched Gale and I kiss. I don't even try to run to him, I just turn around and walk away from him.
