I wake up to getting slapped in the chest. "Gale get up." I look up at her and smile. "Good morning." I get slapped again, sitting up straight I look at her, "Ow, what was that for?" she looks at us and sighs, "Did we have sex?" I nod with a smile on my face, "Yes and it was great." "Ahh." I look at her confused, "What?" "I don't remember what happened." I sigh and get comfy, "Well you hit Peeta." She laughs, "yeah I remember slapping him then coming in and locking the door. I remember nothing after that. " I laugh, "Okay, well I came in you were tipsy. You fell asleep over my lap. You woke and had to get sick. Then I made us dinner and you were drinking again and wanted me to drink and dance. We were having fun then you started to grind on me and well I tried to get away but you brought me back. We ended up having sex on your kitchen counter. Oh yeah we need to clean that."
"Oww, what was that for?" "We had sex and you are worried about a stupid kitchen counter." I laugh, "I said we were drunk and we shouldn't but you wanted to and I lost all clean thoughts as the alcohol took over." She sighs and falls against the bed, '' Oh I forgot you also beat Peeta up with a bat because he came in and found us asleep and thought we did something but we didn't yet." "I really did that?" I laugh and nod and she falls against the bed again with a sigh. "Gale, I can't believe we had sex." I look at her and sigh, "Katniss, who cares? We are both consenting adults. We are not related. Nothing wrong happened. " she looks up with those big eyes with slight hope in them, "Yeah your right." I laugh, "Of course I am." She slaps me again, "Don't get cocky."
We start laughing again and when we stop she gets serious, "People will think…" I grab her shoulders and look her in the eyes, "Katniss no one has to know. We are consenting adults and what happens between us is our business no ones else's." She smiles and nods, "That's my girl. Now how about I get a shower and make us breakfast." Smiling big she nods.
"I miss this Gale. I don't get to see the old you a lot. Please don't go back to drinking and being weird." I sigh, " I know you don't see this side a lot anymore but you gotta know its hard for me. Plus what happened to my old friend. I don't like seeing you get drunk." She sighs, "I only drink a little you know that." I look at her, "Okay last night I got a little carried away." I laugh and get out of bed heading to the shower.
I come out and see Katniss is asleep on her stomach with her head turned toward the door. How did I know she would be asleep? I hear her soft snores and sniffle a laugh as I head to the guest room. I find my clothes that are kept here in case I pass out over here and change. Heading into the kitchen I see the counter and smile. I grab her wipes and clean that counter well. Then I clean the others. I then mop up the vodka we spilt during our dancing and end up mopping the whole kitchen. I walk into the living room and clean that up too.
Soon the whole house is clean and I make my way back into the kitchen to start breakfast. I know I shouldn't have cleaned but what else did I have to do. It gave Katniss some time to sleep. I make us some waffles and toast. I grab the orange juice and fill two glasses then grab a tray and head upstairs. I set the dresser and laugh at how something so tiny can take up the whole bed. I shake her a little, "Katniss, come on." She moans and turns over, "Katniss, time to eat. Come on get up." She heard something she liked because she turns over and smiles.
We start to eat and are watching something on television. We are laughing a little between bites. I turn to her and laugh, "You feeling better?" she nods and eats some more. After the food is gone we are watching television and snuggling up like we use to. "I'm gonna go shower." I nod and watch as she heads into the bathroom.
Katniss's POV…
About twenty minutes later I come out and see Gale relaxing so comfortable on the bed. I laugh as I run and jump on the bed. "What are you doing?" he smiles as I look up at him innocently. "Noothingg." He laughs as I get up and head to my drawers. "Want to help me pick out clothes?" he shakes his head and I drop my robe as I slip on my underwear and bra.
I walk to my closet and find a top and jeans. Slipping them on I turn and see Gale watching me. Yes, I changed in front of him. We use to do it all the time. He is my best friend I don't see anything wrong with it. I look at him and decide to mess with him, "What, You like what you see?" I decide to pose. He laughs and smiles, "Yep, I absolutely love seeing a gorgeous girl change in front of me. "
I laugh as he comes near me and tries to wrap his arms around me. We end up running around my room until I trip and he falls on top of me. We are laughing when Gale leans in to try an kiss me. I turn and he gets my cheek. He gets up and I sit up, "I'm sorry I just think we should try to keep everything as friends." He nods and hugs me. "I know. I'm sorry its just gonna be hard because of last night." I turn and smile, "Gale I cant remember a lot but from the feeling I have between me I am going to say it was great. I just feel like we should be friends. We are great as friends." He nods and hugs me, "Everything is cool. "
We were hanging out downstairs playing games when I hear a knock and turn toward the door to see Peeta walk in. "Katniss, I don't really know everything that happened but from what I remember I was a jerk and I am so sorry." I smile and look at Gale who is trying to sniffle a laugh. "It's okay." Peeta came closer and I can see the imprint of my hand on his cheek and its nice and swollen. "Want to sit?" he nods but as he tries to sit he groans and moans. "Maybe I will stand." He lifts his shirt and I see his side and some of his back are bruised badly. "Oh my god. Peeta I am so sorry." he shakes his head, "I deserved it." Me and Gale help him sit and for once all three of us are hanging out getting a long good.
We are all hanging out when I feel a little pain between my legs. I then feel a pain in my stomach and rush to the bathroom. I can't believe my monthly friend decides to come now. I hear knocks on the door. When I come out I see two very concerned faces I smile and laugh. "You should see your faces." "Are you okay?" "Do you need anything?" I laugh and walk past them to the living room and sit down, "I am fine. Don't worry. I am a little hungry though. How about we eat lunch?" they both nod and we head into the kitchen to make food.
After lunch Gale comes over and gives me a kiss on the cheek. "I need to go home." I nod and he walks out and Peeta smiles then turns to me. "Can we talk?" I nod and he grabs my hand. "I am so sorry about everything. If I did something wrong during that night I am sorry. I was upset that you left. I thought we would snuggle or at least talk about it. Then you left. I felt so used. I felt like you just wanted me for what I could offer." I shake my head, "Peeta, no. I felt so bad when I woke up and saw you laying there so cute. I felt like I just used you. I didn't know what to do. I felt guilty for having sex with you. I knew everything would be different. I just thought if I left things would be okay and we could forget."
He comes over and looks me in the eyes, "Katniss I could never forget. I think about that over and over again. That was one of the best days of my life. I guess I hoped you liked it." I smile, "Peeta I did like it. It was so much fun. I just thought you would think I used you so I wanted to leave." He smiles, "You liked it?" I nod and he smiles bigger. He starts to lean in and I follow suit.
Soon our lips are connected and that feeling I only get when me and Peeta kiss is back. I love this feeling. I feel love, warmth, sweetness, and I feel safe.
We pull away and look at each other. "Peeta, I love you but I don't want us to be together right now." He looks sad but then nods, "I understand. At least you still feel something for me. At least there is hope for us." He gets up and heads to the door.
"I will still help with the baby thing." With that he leaves and doesn't look back.
