Chapter 6
A lot (like 2) of you guys wanted to see more Gale. I'm trying my best so enjoy! Suggestions people!
"You really want to know?" Gale says.
I nod.
"Mellark, get the heck out of this room." Gale demands.
Peeta scurries into the kitchen, but I know he's still listening.
"So during the war," Gale begins tenderly, "you and I and a bunch of other people went away. At one time, we needed medics, and I guess Prim must've snuck out with them. When she came, bombs were exploding so…"
We're entering the war field. Boggs got his legs blown off. Peeta is killing a man.
"Mellark!" Gale calls. All background noise.
Gale and I get separated, but reunited again. Underground sewers. Finnick is being attacked by strange white mutts, courtesy of Snow. Staying with Tigris. "She'll pick whoever she can't survive without." Going to save children, Prim's there as a medic. Silver parachutes drop and explode. One hits Prim. Are these Gale's bombs? Get to have the honor of killing Snow, kill Coin instead.
I blink, and I'm now in a hospital bed.
"What did I do wrong this time?" I mutter.
Gale, Peeta, and Haymitch come in.
"Well, sweetheart, you're awake." the drunken Mr. Haymitch says.
"Glad to see you're awake." I say back to him.
In my brain, I'm pondering all the new memories I have. Poor Finnick; where did I meet such a gorgeous man? I killed a person? Did… did Gale kill my sister?
"Can I speak to Gale alone for a minute?" I ask.
Gale mutters something unintelligible, while the others leave.
"Did you…" I trail off.
Gale seems to know what I mean. "No, I didn't kill Prim intentionally. I'm not even sure if it was my bomb. But I truly am sorry."
Gale leans in and gives me a soft, passionate kiss on the lips. It's pleasant, but I'm not sure yet if it's welcome.
Gale smiles at me and leaves me with my thoughts. Why did he kiss me? Do I want to kiss him back? What about Peeta? I am so CONFUSED.
I know, short chapter. But would you rather have a long chapter with no Gale, or a short one with a KISS. Hope that pleases all you Gale fans. Read carefully, because I'm not sure if it will happen again. So read and suggest things people!
