Guys! I'm so sorry for taking too long to update; I'm grounded and I'm not supposed to use my computer, but I promise that I'll try to update whenever I'm able to!

I'm not in love with this chapter, because I really don't like the Gale and Katniss stuff, but I hope you like it! (And I think that it needs to be edited...)

Sorry for the lack of Finnick!

When we head back from the forest we walk along the halls until we stop in front of his room.

He smiles nervously and then kisses me.

"Do you want to stay the night?" He asks a few millimeters away from my lips.

What is that supposed to mean? I look him straight in the eye. I'm not conscious about my expression, but it seems like something about it made him laugh.

"I'm not ready to let you go yet …" He says and kisses my forehead

I exhale; I hadn't noticed that I was holding my breath…

Gale smiles and holds my hand; we walk towards his bed and I sit on the edge, while he walks around the room.

"Katniss, I really love you... More than I ever thought I would." He says as he stands in front of me, presses his forehead against mine and kisses me.

I don't know why but, my mind flies to Peeta.

"I love you too." I whisper weakly.

He smiles and sits next to me; we stare into each other's eyes for a while. His grey eyes shine so bright, he looks happy, I'm making him happy. I smile at him.

He kisses me and softly leans me in the bed; then, he lies on top of me, balancing himself so I don't take all of his weigh.

He softly kisses my jawline and then my neck. I feel my heart thumping on my chest. He kisses my lips and runs his hand along my waist; I get goosebumps when he gets his hand under my shirt and runs his index finger along my backbone.

I kiss him and wrap my arms around his neck, trying to pull him closer to me. He kisses me harder and presses his body against mine.

My mind is cloudy and I can't think clearly.

Gale kisses my neck and softly bites me. I pull his face close to mine and kiss him; he bites my bottom lip and smiles.

He turns and makes me lie over him. I softly kiss his neck and then his lips.

He runs his finger under my shirt along my back and finds the hook of my bra. He stops and looks me in the eyes.

I can't do this. I can't do this to Peeta, he loved me and I love him…

I lean back. What the hell have I done?

"I'm sorry, Gale…" I mutter.

"No, I'm sorry…" He says staring at my eyes.

I sigh and kiss his cheek.

"I'm not ready yet…" I whisper as I stand up and step back from his bed.

I blush when I think about what has just happened. I feel angry at myself. I didn't think about Peeta!

«You're so selfish! » My inner voice yells at me.

Gale sits on his bed, stares at me and reaches for my hand.

"Please don't leave; I got caught up by the moment." He whispers.

"You mean 'we'." I mutter holding back a smile.

"It won't happen again." He mutters as he kisses my hand.

I take a deep breath and sit next to him.

"Come here…" He lies on the bed and pulls me closer.

I lie next to him and rest my head on his chest. We talk about how much we miss District twelve and about the things that made it special. I'm starting to feel homesick, scratch that, I started to feel homesick at the moment I stepped into the arena, knowing that probably I'd give my life to save Peeta… I can't get him out of my head… I clench my eyes and try to think about something else. Gale and I talk about everything that makes us happy and everything we like, he tries to keep my mind busy so I don't think about Peeta. We fall asleep after a while.

"Katniss…" A soft voice calls my name.

I look around me, I'm on the jungle. I don't see anyone.

"Katniss!" The voice insists and sounds louder, it sounds like if someone's screaming my name.

I look around me one more time. My mind clicks. I'm back on the arena. It's the Quarter Quell. Something doesn't feel right…

Peeta. Where's Peeta? I've got to find him.

I run trying to follow the voice.

"Peeta!" I yell his name. I feel a stab of panic and run faster. "Peeta!" I insist.

When I find him, he's on the floor and covered in blood.

"Peeta!" I yell as I lay next to his body "Peeta, look at me!" I know that it's too late.

I keep yelling his name.

I cry and kiss his forehead.

"Peeta…" I mutter.

My eyes burn because of the tears, I want to punch myself.

"Katniss…" The voice insists.

I wake up crying and screaming Peeta's name.

Gale tries to hug me, but I push him away. I instantly regret doing that when I see his expression: He looks sad and worried.

"I'm sorry." I mutter wiping my tears.

"It's okay…" He says faking a smile.

"Do you mind if I go to my room? I need to take a bath and stuff like that…" I need to get out of here; I can't let him see how I breakdown every time I have a nightmare.

"Okay… See you at the dining hall to have breakfast together?" He asks smiling weakly.

"Yeah…" I reply as I leave.

I let my thoughts take possession of me while I walk towards my room.

I miss Peeta… I wish he was here holding me, kissing me, walking and talking with me… I wish I could tell him that I love him and that I need him.

When I get to my room I take out from my pocket the pearl Peeta gave me and smile at it, like if it were him. Tears start streaming down my face. I hold it close to my heart, kiss it and then put it back into my pocket. I take a deep breath and go to take a bath.

I meet with Gale at the dining room and we sit together to eat breakfast.

I spot Finnick at the other edge of the room, I smile at him and he smiles back at me.

Gale frowns when notices that Finnick's walking towards us.

"Is he going to sit with us?" He asks scowling.

"Do you mind?" I ask in response.

"Yes, kind of…" He mutters.

Finnick sits next to Gale and gives him a friendly punch in the arm. Gale frowns at him.

"So you guys…" Finnick starts to say grinning "Tell me, how was last night?"

"What?" I ask.

"Oh, come on, Girl on Fire! Both of you know what I'm talking about!" He says laughing.

"Shut up." Gale tells him serious.

Gale looks angry and Finnick seems to enjoy it.

"Oh come on! Was it good?" He laughs cockily.

Does he think that I slept with Gale?

"What are you talking about?" I ask annoyed.

"Oh, Girl on Fire! I'm talking about that this morning, I saw you leaving your man's room and you didn't even say hi to me!" He says with mock offense.

Indeed, he thinks that I slept with Gale.

"We didn't do it." Gale says annoyed.

"Oh, what a shame." Finnick says laughing and looks at me.

What's wrong with him?

"Are you done with mocking at us?" I ask annoyed.

Finnick smiles seductively.

"I wasn't mocking at you…" He whispers and winks at me.

"Go away." Gale tells him. He's definitely angry.

"Oh, but we were having so much fun… Weren't we, Girl on Fire?" He smiles seductively at me.

"I mean it, Odair." Gale mutters angrily.

I snort. Finnick doesn't use to behave like this; he's cocky, but never annoying.

"Oh, call me whenever you're in the mood to have a little fun…" He says with a grin before leaving.

We stay quiet when he's finally gone.

"What's wrong with that moron?" Gale asks angry.

"I don't know… He's not like that…" I mutter confused

We finish our breakfast in silence.

I can't stop wondering why the hell Finnick acted like that…

When I get back to my room he's standing out, next to the door.

"What are you doing here?" I ask him.

"I came to talk to you..." Finnick mutters looking at the ground.

That's it for this chapter, I hope you've enjoyed it!

As always, I want to thank you for all of your reviews, follows, favorites and also messages!

You can't imagine how happy you make me!

Guys, I was wondering if you'd like this chapter from Finnick's POV while I finish writing the next one, because it's taking me longer than I expected...
