Katniss' POV:
I miss him. I know I miss him. I miss the way we read each other's minds. I love the way he comforted me. I loved the way he smelled. I loved the way our hands fit together perfectly. I loved the way he would make me laugh. I loved the way he would joke with me. I loved the way he cared about me. I love the way he looked at me. I loved the way he got jealous when I was with Peeta. I loved the way he would listen to whatever I wanted to say. I loved he would go through hell and back for me. I loved he would do anything to help my family. I loved the way he smiled. I loved the way he laughed. I loved his company. I loved him. I love him. No you love Peeta Mellark Katniss don't be silly. You love him. He says that he loves me. I never say it back, because I love Gale. No Katniss you love Peeta. I start to cry in frustration. Peeta comes upstairs and starts comforting me. He promises me fake things. Gale never did that he excepted the situation and automatically made me feel better. "Katniss what do you want?", says Peeta. I don't answer. "Oh not this again", he says rudely. I don't speak. "Catnip", he says in a mocking tone. That breaks me. "Don't insult him like that!", I yell. "Why can't I insult the man who killed your sister?!", Peeta says annoyed. That's when I realize it. Gale Hawthorne did not kill my sister. A bomb did. He couldn't have saved her. "He... he didn't kill her.", I say. "Yeah he did", says Peeta. "No he didn't". "Whatever see you at dinner I'm going out.", says Peeta in a huff. I go downstairs. I take a shaky breath and I pull out the number Greasy Sae gave me. My hands tremble and I punch in Gales number. He's only been gone for two weeks and I miss him with all my heart. The phone rings. Immediately he picks up. "Gale?", I ask. "Katniss.", he says. I can almost feel his happiness. "Catnip I'm so sorry. I'm sorry about everything that happened. I was stupid. Everything you must be feeling is all my fault. I ruined everything. You must hate me.", his voice starts to shake. Gale never cries. "Gale I missed you so much I miss you I miss you I'm sorry I'm so sorry", I practically am crying into the speaker. "Please please come back your family misses you and I miss you so so much.", I'm breaking down. "Catnip I'll be here by tomorrow morning.", he says.
Gale has never been one to lie to me. He's there. He's really there. He steps out of the train. Hazel, Rory, Vick, and little Posy are all here as well as my mom. He sees me. I run like I've never ran before, my tears are streaming down my face like a waterfall. I hug Gale tighter and more passionate than I've ever hugged anyone in my whole life. He hugs me back just as passionate. I start crying into his shirt. Then I realize he's brought all of his belongings and I cry even harder. He's back for good.
Katniss' mothers POV:
Right then and there I realize how much my daughter was breaking without him. She's holding on to him like he will disappear at any moment. He's holding her like he never wants to let go. They stay wrapped in each other's arms for over five minutes until little Posy comes in between them. "Gwale!", she shrieks out in laughter. He lifts her up an spins her around. I watch as he hugs everyone, but he hugs no one they way her hugged my daughter.
