I should've been chasing you
I should've been trying to prove
That you were all that mattered to me

I should've said all the things
That I kept inside of me
And maybe I could've made you believe
That what we had was all we'd ever need

All We'd Ever Need by Lady Antebellum

Gale is waiting for his friend Collins at a café. They became friends when Gale moved to district 2. Collins is a very nice guy, even though is originally from district 2 he is not vicious and blood thirsty. He is funny and trustworthy. Collins actually reminds Gale of Rory, even though Collins is older than Gale by two years. Collins will introduce to Gale his fiancée, Gale hasn't met her yet but he feels like he knows her because Collins kept on talking about her. He is happy that his friend is happy. Now, Collins' fiancée, Geraldine will come to district 2 to visit Collins and to meet Gale.

Someone called Gale and he knows that its Collins when he turned around his dace turned pale. Collins is walking with a blonde girl with blue eyes that looks familiar. So familiar that it always haunts him everytime he sleeps. The girl who he didn't get to save. Madge Undersee. But it can't be, because he heard that the Undersees never made it. He thinks that maybe the girl looks like Madge.

"Hey Gale, are you alright? You look like you've seen a ghost." Collins said with a chuckle.

"I'm okay."

"Good. Oh by the way this is Geraldine. The love of my life and the woman I'm going to marry."

"Gale Hawthorne. I've heard so many things about you. It's nice to finally meet you." Geraldine said although she's smiling Gale knows that she is not sincere. Up close she really looks like Madge and when she spoke, Gale knew that she really is Madge Undersee.

"Collins also told me a lot about you. It feels like I actually know you."

"Funny because I felt like I've known you my whole life too."

"This is nice. You two are actually getting along. My best friend and my fiancée; the two most important people in my life. Oh by the way Gale, today is your day off right?"

"Yeah. Why?"

"Well could you stay with Geraldine for a while? I still gave unfinished paperworks. Don't worry I won't be long. Please."

"Okay. as long as she is okay with it."

"Don't worry. You go to work and I'll find out more about Gale."

"Thanks guys you really are the best." Collins kissed Geraldine and left.

"So Geraldine huh. Why did you change your name?"

"So you remember me."

"Of course Madge. How could I forget you?"

"That's a funny statement Hawthorne. Well let me tell you when you forget me. Bombings."

"Madge you know how much I want to save you. When we left district 12 I felt really empty because you weren't there. I blame myself every single day for not saving you."

"Nice speech but I'm not gonna fall for it like the last time. You left me not only during the bombings. You always leave me alone Gale. You only come for me when you're lonely because Katniss isn't there."

"Madge I'm telling you the truth. I don't love Katniss as much as I love you. You are my life. I died when they said that you're dead."

"Stop saying those lies. You didn't even try to know if it was really me who died. My father's the Mayor for crying out loud. You really think that we won't be able to get out?"

"Madge…I don't know. And besides how am I suppose to find you if you change your name. where did you even find the name Geraldine?"

"Madeline Geraldine Undersee."

"What?"

"That's my real name Gale, if you really care about me like what you said you are you should've known that but I guess you're too busy with Katniss to care about my real name."

"Madge that's not true. I love you. I should've said it before, I should've proven to you that you are the one that I love and not Katniss."

"Yes you should've but you didn't because of Katniss."

"It's not Katniss, it's me because I'm a coward. But now I'll change that, Madge please forgive me. I really want to be with you please give me another chance."

"Do you hear yourself? Gale, I'm going to get married to your best friend. To someone who welcomed you to district 2, to someone who treated you like a brother. The guy who made me feel loved, the gut who made me feel for the first time that I am first and I'm not just a consolation prize. The guy who I know loves me so much. And now you're telling me to leave him so I could be with you because you figured out that you love me more than you love Katniss?"

"Madge that's not what I meant. I thought you didn't love Collins that much."

"I'm going to marry him Gale. Are you really that shallow that you'd think that once you said you love me I'll come back running into your arms? I'm not like you and Katniss who pretend to love someone. I love him and I'm marrying him. Gale I've always love you but you are just too little too late."

I know Gale is not very much likable here so I'm sorry. If you have other comments and suggestions just review and I will greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
