After mockingjay

Chapter 11

This is going to be torture. I can't believe I'm allowing him to watch me for 6 hours. I already miss Peeta. I go and sit on the couch and Gale sits next to me. "So I couldn't help but over hear you and Peeta." He starts saying. "Over hear what?" I say even though I know where he's going. "You said you loved him. It's not true. I know you love me." He says. "Gale, what are you talking about? I don't love you like that, I love you as a brother."

I say. "Katniss, you don't need to lie, I know." He says. He's kind of scaring me so I scoot away from him. I'm deciding to give him the silent treatment. I'm not going to talk to him at all. "So Catnip, is there anything you want to do? Go hunting?" He asks. I just get up and walk up the stairs and go in my room. I lock the door and climb out my window. I noticed I come to my roof when I need some thinking. I hear Gale pounding on the door telling me to let him in, but I don't. The pounding stops and I think he gave up. Then all the sudden my door breaks down. "Katniss! Don't EVER scare me like that!" He says. I just ignore him and look back at my view from the roof.

"Katniss, please don't shut me out." He says pleading. I can see the hurt in his eyes, but I still don't say anything. "Fine Katniss." He says. We sit up there for hours just watching. Then I see Peeta walking toward my house. I realized how much I missed him when he was gone. I literally climb back through my window and run downstairs. I stand at the door waiting for Peeta to come through it.

The second he does I wrap my arms around him in a hug. He picks me up and spins me around. When he sets me down he kisses my cheek. "I missed you." I say. "I missed you too." He says. Then I see Peeta staring at something on the stairs. I turn around and see Gale staring at us. "Well, I'll see you tomorrow Catnip" says Gale. I don't say anything until he leaves. "I'm sorta trying not to talk to him." I say to Peeta. "Oh. Did he say something?" Asks Peeta. "Yeah he did. He said that he knew I loved him. So I just stopped talking." I say. "Oh." Says Peeta. I can tell that he's angry with Gale.

"I'm going to go start dinner." Says Peeta. "Okay." I say. I go and lay on the couch. I start humming. Humming the Valley Song, while I start thinking about what's happened these last couple of days. A lot has happened. I'm so distracted that I didnt hear the noise of my living room window opening. All the sudden people start grabbing me and taping my mouth shut, but before they get the tape over it, I scream as loud as a can, then everything goes black.
