coolbeaniostwilightrules7 and fireonice1292 thanks so much for your reviews you guys were my first and you've really helped me through this story!
It was just about six when Gale came over, bringing fresh meat with him, asking to come over and eat with us tonight. I didn't know if it was because he wanted to get away from his family's pity filled looks or if he wanted to be around someone who shared his pain but either way he was here. Dinner was quite and the TV was always near. Katniss was doing better but Peeta I was worried about, he was still losing a lot of blood and I was scared.
"Prim, Prim honey you ok?" I heard my mom's anxious voice from the other end of the table. Crap I must have been zoning out again….. great.
"Yeah mom I'm fine. I'm just worried that's all." She gives me a look and after she's just to out of to care well I guess she's just worried too or maybe I should stop making excuses for her. All this is too much I need to distract myself. "Gale thanks for the food I really appreciate it." He sighed this time his eyes filling up with pity and some unknown emotion …. anger I wasn't sure.
"Prim its ok to cry, to be afraid… I know am and I'm not afraid to admit it either." How could he say that!! He didn't know half of what I was going through! My real mom had died long ago and the closet thing I had to a parent was off fighting for her life and I'll probably never see her again!!! And it… it was all MY fault! Tears were gushing down my face and I could barely breathe…. it was all my fault.
"If only my named had never been called, if only I had never been born none of this would had ever happened!!!" I screamed, almost waking my mother who had gone to bed when I had zoned out earlier, but if she woke she didn't care.
"I don't want to ever hear you say that again, your sister loves you more then anything in the whole world! What would she think when she comes back home and hears what you've been saying! Prim she loves you with all her heart and so do I, your like a little sister to me and I know that if Katniss was to come back right now she would be so proud of you." I couldn't doubt the sincerity in Gale's words and I didn't want to as my anger and disappointment from earlier faded.
"You really think so" my voice questioning. He just nodded his head and that was all it took for me to run crying into his arms.
