Hey everyone! This is a completely Gadge chapter, I think it was about time, don't you?

As always read & review

Gale POV

I walk into room 12 and see that a doctor is checking Katniss's heartbeat and pulse, when she sees me she smiles and beckons me over to her. When the doctor is finished checking her over he looks up and smiles,

"So, everything looks good you should be able to go home but I just thought I'd tell you that you might want to thank that blonde kid for saving your life, I'm pretty sure that Mr. Ludwig would have continued and killed you. Take it easy for the rest of the day but if you begin to have a concussion come back immediately, I'll tell the others." The doctor walks out of the room leaving me alone with Katniss, so I sit in the seat next to her.

"I'm guessing your not capable to go to the date then, are you?" I sigh sadly, I desperately wanted to go on a second date with her.

"Gale, you do realise that I'm not the person your going on a date with don't you?" She asks, I look up and I see honesty in her eyes, I sigh deeply. "But I'm afraid I'll have to postpone it until probably Monday, I'm sorry."

"It's fine, honestly, I guess my hopes and dreams were to big to become a reality," I answer before getting up and heading to her door. "I'll see you in the woods sometime or maybe at band practice, bye Catnip."

I walk out the door and I instantly think myself stupid because now she probably hates me, I walk down the ward to where the doctor is telling everyone that Katniss can come home. I look for a place to sit while we wait for Katniss and the only available space is beside Finnick, I sigh and sit beside him.

"Where's Peeta gone?" I ask realising his absence.

"He finally came to his senses after years of us trying to explain to him that Delly was a cheat," Finnick explains. "She came out of Cato's room while she was on the phone to him, he didn't say anything apart from and I quote ' I'm breaking up with you." She went into a huff and walked straight back to Cato's room he then became really angry and started punching the walls and before anyone could stop him, he raced out the Hospital."

"I missed a lot," I say and Finnick just nods. "I'm going to get some fresh air, call me if Katniss comes out."

He nods so I get up and walk out of the ward, it's really stuffy in this frickin hospital, I begin to run for the lift I hear it ding and it's reached our floor so I run faster but I end up knocking someone. I stop and help the person up, when they are up I realise it's Madge, her hair isn't in it's usual high pony tail, it hangs down. She isn't wearing her usual jeans in stead she wears a baby blue dress that stops just above her knees, she looks beautiful. I see she has red, puffy eyes and she occasionally sniffles signalling she's been crying.

"I'm so sorry, Gale," she sniffs. "I didn't see you."

"Don't worry about that, what's the matter?" I ask putting my arm around her.

"I don't want to speak about it here, you don't know how many cameras are watching us," she sniffles sadly.

"I was just going outside for some fresh air, want to come and talk about it?" I ask and she nods, "come on then."

We turn around and we get in the lift in silence with the occasional sniffles from madge, we're alone on the lift which makes the silence even more awkward. We step off the lift and walk past the reception desk, when we step outside the main entrance it's dark, it must be about ten o'clock. I turn and face Madge and she looks like she's about to burst in to tears,

"I came home from school like usual and my mom was at the hospital she didn't tell any of us why, when she came home she was in tears but she went straight into my dad's office completely ignoring me and my little brother. After about ten minutes, I heard raised voices coming from dad's office, I decided to walk straight in like the idiot that I am and they were physically fighting. When I walked in they stopped and my dad said ' your not bringing cancer into this house'" she explains and bursts into tears again but she pulls herself together and continues. "And then my mom shouted back at him saying that if she was going to were me and my brother, but my dad says I don't give a shot about them kids, I have higher priorities. So my mum guided me out of the room and I was packing up when you called me about Katniss, I didn't want to leave but my mom said it would be fine."

She bursts into tears again and I pull her into a hug and I feel her tears fall on my chest as she silently cry. "I'm sorry, Gale. You shouldn't be burdened with my problems."

"Hey, don't say that." I say and raise her head up and we make eye contact and she has beautiful blue eyes, "it's never a burden to hear your beautiful voice."

"Now, your just being sympathetic."

"No, I'm not, everything about you is beautiful, your voice, your giggle and especially your eyes. Your beautiful in every way possible!" I tell her and her cheeks turn scarlet, which makes me laugh. As I lean in so does she and our lips brush against each other's we interrupted by,

"Yay! I think that means I'm owed about forty pound now! Finnick, Marvel and you Madge hand over the money!" Says Katniss and I look away from Madge to see everyone from the waiting room staring at us with eyebrows raised, I look at Katniss confused as Finnick, Marvel and Madge all hand her ten pounds. "I'll have to get the money off Peeta tomorrow."

"What is she talking about?" I ask no one in particular.

"She was saying that you and Madge would fall in love by the end of the week and us lot put a bet on to say that you wouldn't," Finnick says smirking.

Am I really that predictable?
