Katniss p.o.v

I hated seen him like this. He looked like he hasn't slept in days only after one night of no sleep. I wanted to know what was bothering him but it didn't looked like the right time to ask.

"Okay I can't take this anymore peeta" I said not even releasing how loud It was. What is bothering you so much? He was now looking at me like a scared little child probably because of my little outburst. I didn't mean it to come out like that, but it did. I couldn't read his mind, I wanted him to talk to me.

Why aren't you answering me?" I yelled at him. I was now standing up in front of peeta who was still sitting. I can't believe this. He told me last night that he will tell, why wasn't he saying anything.

"I GIVE UP" I said to him.

I needed to get outta here, away from peeta. I needed to get my head straight. I quickly ran upstairs to my room and grabbed my bow and arrows and put my dad's leather jacket on and quickly left the house.That leather jacket is all I have left from my dad.I quickly ran to the district 12 gate and ran to the woods. I needed to hunt.

"Calm down" I tells myself. I was still running. I finally stop and took a rest. It didn't take me that long to spot a rabbit, I quickly got up trying to be quiet as ever. I pulled my bow and arrows, point it at my target and " HEY" a voice interrupts me as I release the arrow and Miss my target.

"ugh Gale" I said turning my body to face him. He had a wide grin on his face oviesly mocking me. I wanted so bad to slap him but I couldn't bring myself to do it.

"What are you dong here?" I asked still angry at my lost bait.. "the same thing you're here to do."

"Oh okay" so let's go. We caught 2 squirrels, 3 rabbits and lots of veggies and fruits. I missed hunting with gale, I forgot how much fun it use to be. It was never the same hunting by myself. Our connection was back, our friendship was back and I didn't want it any other way.

It was getting late and I decided to show gale the beautiful sunset I discovered a few weeks back. As we watch the sunset, I never wanted this moment with gale to end. It was perfect.

He walked me home and as we approach my door steps he grabs my arm and pulls me close to his chest. I hugged my best friend tightly.

"I love you katniss"

His words senk into my heart and I had no choice but to say his loving words back to him

"I love you too...

Before I could finish, gale kissed me. I stood frozen outside my door for a least 10 minutes. Gale walked away with a surprised face. I didn't know what to think. My best friend was still in love with me. How was I Going to tell Peeta. He would go on a rampage and would want to kill gale. No I couldn't tell him. I had to keep it to myself and I hope gale keeps it to himself to. After about 20 more minutes of being frozen on my door step, I walked in to find Peeta knocked out on the couch.this time I tried to keep my voice down so i Don't wake him up. There was no need to talk to him now or i might end up spilling the beans.The guilt was already taking control.

i was going insane. the guilt really was taking over now. all i could think about was the kiss. why did he have to go ahead and kiss me knowing that i was with peeta.i can never see gale the same way ever again. he was my best friend, always was and always will be but right now i dont know how to feel. it was about 3:30 am now and i was beggining to feel my eyes feel up with tears and drip down my cheeks and land on my pillow. Peeta layed beside me. i couldnt sleep facing him tonight, the guilt would only come back so turning my head to the other side and trying to sleep (failed attepmt) was the best way to stop the guilt back into my mind.

"morning"

i turn my head to face peeta who was happy and smilling again. i was happy that he was happy instead of being sad. seeing him like this made me smile back at him only to bring my face down and feel the guilt coming back into my mind. it was about 9 now, i probably drifted off to sleep while my mind was still arguing over what i should do about the kiss. he quickly kissed me on the cheeck and left the room. why was it so hard for me to tell peeta? i didnt even have to ask myself that question because i already knew the answer. i didnt want any of them to get hurt because of me. i loved them both. i loved gale but as my best friend. i dont think i could ever feel the same way to gale as i feel to peeta. it was too different types of relationships i have for both of them. i let my mind wonder off again until i was sure i was falling asleep again.

what did you think? love it hate it? i wanna know comment. and i think this chapeter was longer then the ones before. ill update soon.
