Gale POV
The loud bring of the alarm moaned loudly, as I pressed snooze. I almost fell back to sleep until I realized what day it was today. I would be seeing Katniss. The feeling of anxiousness and delight washed over me as I got out of bed reluctantly and reached for the shower button. The hot water beat down on me, relaxing me instantly.
"Gale! Are you done yet? I need to use the shower!" Maya screeched.
Maya is my fiancée. We've been engaged for three months and are in the process of organizing a wedding, which will be the happiest day of my life. I never thought I would get over Katniss after she chose Peeta over me but after meeting Maya I fell in love. She's everything to me, I love her and she loves me too. I would do anything for her. Even take a bullet for her. Yes, I love her that much.
I sighed and dragged my soaking body out of the shower. I quickly dressed and ran out of the bathroom.
"There you are Gale!" She said, running up to give me a light kiss on the cheek.
I didn't tell her I was meeting Katniss. It was best to keep it a secret-what she doesn't know won't hurt her right?
"Maya, I've got to pop out to meet a friend. I promise I'll be back soon." I kissed her forehead lightly and sprinted out the door before she could say anything else.
I don't know if I'm happy or sad to see Katniss again. After all, she had dreams about me and left Peeta heartbroken. I mean, who would do that to someone? After hearing about the dreams, it made me feel confused about her. Did she really have feelings for me? I wasn't sure I had feelings for her-after all I had moved on. But the feeling of Katniss and me caused me to think differently.
I ducked under the district fence and walked towards the field. A feeling of relief washed over me as I realised who the person before me was. Katniss.
"Hi Gale." She breathed.
"Hi Katniss."
I ran up to her and pulled her into a tight embrace. She flinched but soon relaxed. She pulled away first.
"So what did you want to talk to me about?" She asked. Her eyes were blood red, as if she'd been crying.
"I wanted to know how feel about me." I breathed.
There was a short silence.
"Gale, I don't know if I have feelings for you."
the words made me feel uneasy. How can she do this? She have dreams about me, breaks up with her boyfriend, turns up crying and says she doesn't have feelings for me? Who does she think she is?
"Then where do we stand?" I demanded. " I can't carry on not knowing if you have feelings for me too. I'm getting married for goodness sake!"
"I'm sorry Gale, I really am. I just... need some time. To think."
I walked towards and pressed my lips against hers. She was surprised at first, but she was kissing me back. The kiss felt... amazing. Not like one of the kisses I had with Maya. Oh no. What am I going to do about the wedding? Should I get married? To someone I wasn't sure I loved back? That was the point of marrying someone. To promise to love them forever. What am I going to do?
Katniss POV
I walked home feeling so happy. More happier than weeks since Peeta had left. It was so good seeing Gale again. His beautiful grey eyes staring into mine. His kiss... nothing I'd felt before. But it felt wrong. The wrong lips, the wrong person. I felt as if I was cheating on Peeta. But after all, he did leave me. I am a free person after all.
I rummaged through my pockets to find my keys. I pushed the small silver key through the door and opened it. As soon as I walked into the kitchen, a familiar voice came to greet me.
"Katniss." He said.
It was Peeta.
Peeta POV
It had been weeks since I left Katniss that night. It took everything in me to get out of that bed and leave. Leave the love of my life. But I'm not sure she is anymore. My heart shattered into tiny pieces when told me about those dreams. Gale. His name makes me feel sick. I thought we would be able to get on for Katniss' sake but I guess I was wrong. He took Katniss away from me and I will never forgive him for it.
The weeks being away from Katniss was like having glue stuck to a piece of paper. Almost impossible to separate. I needed to see her again, to tell her I loved her and I was sorry. I need her back in my life again.
So I'm going to leave it there! I hope you like it and please leave reviews! They make me write faster!
