Once again I apologize for not updating, been very busy and I really don't know what will happen next to the story, so I looked for some inspiration. To Osas1234 and tjtreader thanks for reviewing the last chapter. And also don't worry, I'm a believer of happy endings and Madge and Gale will get the happy ending that they deserve.
Gale still can't believe that Madge left him. He knew that he'll always fight for her and he never thought of her as a burden. Finnick told him that it will be hard but now Gale thinks that Madge being far away is harder. Hazelle is worried about his son. She knows how much Gale and Madge love each other and now that they are so far away from each other, she knows that its killing both of them.
"Gale." Hazelle said in a motherly tone.
"Ma, am I bad person?"
"Of course not Gale. You are an amazing son, brother, friend and lover. Everyone who knows you knows how good of a person you are."
"But why is it that I felt like every single thing that I cared about is leaving me?"
"Rory, Vick, Posy and I are still here. Your friends are still here. And we won't leave you. Madge also didn't leave you. She was just thinking what's best for you. She loves you so much she doesn't want you to suffer. You are important to her just as much as she is important to you. She may not remember you sometimes but in her heart she cares about you."
"But if she really loves me she won't leave me. we promised that we will face this together. She left because she thinks she's a burden but she's not."
"That's the proof of her love. With her feelings and her disease she became confused. Because of her disease she felt like she's a burden and she didn't want the people she loves to face the hardships of taking care of her. Madge chose the obvious choice; she didn't want to be a burden so she left. She's also hurt by her decision. Leaving the people she loves is not an easy thing to do. You're not the only one she left Gale, she also left her parents and friends. Gale you have to understand her decision and also you've got to stop blaming yourself none of this is your fault. Madge won't be happy if she finds out that you're acting this way."
"Thanks Ma. Why is it that you always know what to say? Gale said with a hint of smile. His mom is right, Madge will not be happy if he kept on blaming himself. He still loves Madge and nothing will change that. Together or not, Madge will always be in his heart.
Gale is back to school. he is trying to move on but Madge's absence is really hard to ignore. Their friends are also a little bit down because Madge is not there anymore. But they all try to move on because they know Madge will be sad if she finds out that her friends are sad because of her. While putting his things in his locker someone approach Gale.
"Hey Gale, heard that Barbie is not here in school anymore. Heard she's in some kind of facility. What happened? She crazy or something." Clove said obviously enjoying the fact that Madge is not in the school anymore.
"The only crazy here is you and your sidekick. Where do you even get that news from?" Gale said angrily. He didn't know how in the world Clove found out about Madge being in the facility. Madge's parents made sure that the school won't tell her real condition.
"Glimmer told me. You know she's also pissed at little Miss Perfect because her boyfriend is still not over Barbie. You know I always she's crazy, with the way she acts pretending to forget things. Didn't know you had a thing for crazy chicks."
"If Madge is crazy then what are you? A lunatic? If I hear you say things against Madge I swear I might forget that you're a girl."
"Oooh, I really like it when you're angry, really sexy. You know if you want to forget all you need is to call me. just like what happen with Enobaria. You know that I'm always here for you."
Gale walked away from Clove. He doesn't want to listen to her anymore. What happened between them before is a mistake. He may be mad at Clove but he doesn't want to use her just like before. She doesn't deserve it.
School is finish and Gale is on his way to the gate when he saw the last person he wants to see. Cato. He just hopes that Cato won't see him but luck is not on his side because Cato called him.
"Gale, been waiting for you."
"If you're here to fight I'm not in the mood. I'm sorry if I hurt you. I was just in a bad mood."
"Don't worry I understand and I am not here to fight. I'm actually here because I have news about Madge."
"What?" Gale is surprised to hear Madge's name again especially coming from Cato. "If you're just playing with me you better stop. I don't know what I'll do to you if I found out that you're just lying."
"I'm not lying. Madge is in a facility right?" Gale nodded. "Well my aunt works in the facility where Madge is in. she remembered Madge because she knew we dated before. So she told me about it. She's in a facility in district 2."
"Why are you telling me this? I know that you still have feelings for Madge and you were planning to break us up so why tell me where she is?"
"Because I care about Madge. I know totally not in my character but I cared for her, what I did to her is wrong and I still regret it. Bur I know Madge loves you. The only think I could do to her now is to help you find her."
"Okay thanks Cato. I appreciate it, really I mean it."
"You're welcome. Now go get her."
Gale told his mom that he is going to district 2 to see Madge. Hazelle didn't stop him because she knows she won't be able to. She's glad to see his son happy again.
Gale went to the facility in District 2, he met Cato's aunt. Cato told her about Gale and she showed him to Madge. He is really excited to see Madge, to talk to her to hold her. When he saw Madge, his heart skipped a beat. She is still the same Madge, with her golden hair and blue eyes. Still beautiful, you wouldn't know that she is sick. When she turned around she saw Gale, and that is when Gale's world shattered. She smiled at him, the smile that once made him fall in love with her. Her smile that brightens his day. But now, her smile broke his heart because the smile that she gave to him is the smile that someone gives to a total stranger.
Please don't hate me. This is not the end. Gadge till the end. Please tell me your thoughts. Criticism, suggestions, opinions, just tell me. Thanks
