Okay sorry it's taken me so long so update a new chapter. It's been hard with school and is going to get even harder but I'll update as much as I can. Anyways here is chapter 3 it begins with Gales point of view.
Unfortunately I still do not own the Hunger Games. If I did Cato and Boggs would never have died and Peeta probably would have. But Suzanne Collins does which makes me happy.
Gale's POV
I turn to Haley "I should probably call Katniss. Let her now Adriana's safe" I tell her. Haley looks at me, I know she doesn't really like Katniss or Peeta but she puts up with them for me. "Honestly, I don't think they deserve to know. Let them be parents and worry about her" she says. I think about it for a minute, I look at a picture hanging on the wall of Matthew. If it was Matthew I wouldn't want to worry, I would need to know he is safe. I look at her "I need to call her" she looks annoyed "Gale -" she starts "Hales, she my oldest friend and if it was Matthew. I need to talk to her" I say as I pick up the phone.
The phone a rings a few times. Come on, pick up, pick up. Finally Jake answers the phone "Hello" he says. I smile at the sound of his little voice. God I love that kid too. "Hey Jakey, its Gale is your mom at home?" I ask him. He runs and give the phone to Katniss. "ya Gale" she says, she sounds annoyed. "Hey Catnip whats with the attitude?" I say. "its nothing. What do you want?" she asks. She's pissed. "I just want you to know that Adriana is here. She going to stay the night" I tell her. There's silence for a minute "send her home Gale. Now." She tells me. Damn. "No, she's fine here" I say to her. I can hear it in her voice that she's getting angry "Gale, she needs to come home and fix what happened. She needs to grow up and stop being a child". Did she really just say that? "Katniss she's fifteen years old, she's IS just a kid" I say to her. I hear her sign over the phone "Gale when we were fifteen we were both providing for our families. We were the care givers. I protected Prim as if she was my daughter. You did the same with Rory, Vic and Posy. She doesn't do anything for Jake" she tells me. I'm getting annoyed now "she loves that boy so much. Just because she's not the care giver doesn't mean she doesn't care. Our lives were different then, we made a difference. Do you remember the morning before you went into the Games? You told me you were never having kids. And now you have two beautiful children. You shouldn't be upset that she's not a care giver because you know what it was like. Our teenage years were taken away because of it" I say. "That's another thing she's so ungrateful. I was only a year old then her when I was in the Games. Trying to survive, trying not to die. She can't imagine the things I've done and the things I've seen. She has no idea what it was like" she tells me. "Well maybe if you would talk about it once in a while instead of pretending it never happened. Have you ever thought that maybe that's the reason why you have no relationship with her? You never told her about the Games, about the Quarter Quell, the rebellion, she knows about the rebellion from school. You never told anyone what it was like to see Prim die, how you killed Coin instead of Snow. You never told her about your teenage years. And now that she's growing up, you're ignoring her. It's almost as if you want her to play in the Games. I tell her. I know this isn't true but it might get my point across. "That is not true, and you know it" I can hear it in her voice that she's almost crying. "Do I? You really are becoming more and more like your mother everyday" I say as I hang up the phone.
I walk into Matthews room and turn to Adriana "your mom knows you're here. But you're going to need to go home tomorrow night to settle something's" I say to her. She nods "ya I know" she says quietly. I look at Matthew "son can I talk to you for a minute" Matthew gets up and we go into the living room. "Do you know what happened tonight" I ask him. He looks at me "ya, she found the tapes of the Hunger Games at her parents flipped. I don't know why they care so much. I know about them and she's the same age as I am." He tells me "but you didn't watch them " I say. He looks at me "I know, but dad they never told her anything about their past where as you told me everything. About how it felt to see Katniss and Peeta kissing, about getting whipped, seeing her go back into the Games, how much you helped the rebellion, how you wished you would have volunteered for Peeta, how you blame yourself for Prim's death, about moving to 2 and coming back, everything. Adriana didn't know any of it" he tells me. That's a good point. "Katniss lived through much worse than I did" I tell him. Matthew looks at me "all the more reason to tell your kids. Adriana and Jake deserve to know. I know Jakes only ten but still they need to know" he says. I give him a hug "I love you son" he looks up and gives me a hug "I love you too dad". We tell each other that every night because if anything ever happens to me he needs to know that I love him.
Ok so that's chapter 3. I know it wasn't that good. I had a hard time writing in Gales point of view but I really wanted you to hear the whole convocation. I'm going back to Adrianas point of view in the next chapter and keep it up until I feel that I need to through the point of view of another character.
DON'T FORGET TO REVIEW!
