It has been at least 3 years since me and Gale started dating. I never thought I would date my best friend one day, but it looks like I was wrong. Gale is everything I want. I love him and he loves me. We sat beside each other in a tree. Gale looks over at me, a grin covering his face. I smile back at him.
"You always were the fastest girl." He says. I blush, smiling. He then takes his hand and puts it on my face. Warmth radiates throughout my face. His eyes are locked with mine. He then takes his other hand and pulls out a small silver ring. He slides it onto my finger. I smile, admiring its color and shape.
"Its beautiful." I whisper to him.
"That's what you are to me. Beautiful, smart and cute." He whispers back. I feel my face go red. But I couldn't help but wonder where he was going with this.
"I want no other girl beside me than you Katniss." He says, taking my hands. I look deep down into his eyes.
"Will you marry me?" He asks. I feel a tear run down my cheek. Was I ready to get married? Am I willing to live beside Gale? Of course I am. I always will.
"Yes." I answer. He smiles, kissing me. I wrap my hands around his neck. I will never forget this moment.
I knock on the door gently. I couldn't wait to tell Mother about the news. Mother then opens the door. A smile crosses her face.
"Hi Katniss! Come on in sweetie!" She says, welcoming me as if I had never lived with her all of my life. She sits me down at the kitchen table where Prim is happily working on some sort of toy for the cat.
"So what brings you here today darling?" Mother asks, sitting down with a cup of what looks like tea. I sit down in a chair, preparing to tell her the news.
"Mother, I'm getting married!" I say, showing the beautiful silver ring Gale gave me. Prim looks up, excitement beaming on her face. Mother smiles.
"Well that's wonderful. Gale I assume?" She says, taking a small sip of her drink. I nod my head.
"Can I help you get ready for the wedding?" Prim says, her hair in two cute little braids.
"Of course little duck." I answer, smiling at her.
