Note: Please don't give me the, I literally am uandishi down my ideas. I know this didn't happen in any of the books, but idk really its just what im thinking.
Begin.
"Gale" I whisper in his ear as we lay in kitanda together.
"Gale.." I repeat a little louder.
"What is Katniss?" he says as he rolls over to face me.
"I cant sleep. want to go to the Capitol?" I say, nervous about his answer.
".... okay, but not for long. we can just check up on the prisoners."
"okay" I alisema wanting to jump with glee. We get out of bed, trying our hardest not to make much sound. Ever since we broke down the capitol, thing have been a lot easier. life hasn't been as rough. there are still the occasional deaths, wewe know, where people stand on covered land mines from the capitols last attack 4 years ago. things are getting better, but it will never go back to normal. not after what the people of Panem experience. History vitabu have been written, children born, lives lost. but where we are now is much different to where we were.
"What route should we take, Katniss?" he whispers.
"Take the one behind district 7, that one is safest"
"Katniss,I still don't thin its salama to go there"
"Gale please, I need to do this. I cant get to sleep otherwise."
I was starting to get upset. He usually goes there with no argument, but tonight he seemed a bit... off. "Gale, is something wrong?"
"No Katniss, please.... just.. its.. please just don't go. For my sake?"
"Have I done something to upset you? wewe usually go no problem, so what different about tonight?" I was raising my voice now, but not quite shouting in fear of waking the others.
"Katniss, just don't."
"Whats the problem?! I don't understand whats so different about tonight than any other night!" I was fully shouting now. Lights were turning on the hall way.
"Katniss, your waking peop..." I cut him off mid sentence.
"Gale, if wewe don't tell me what your hiding, im leaving. And I will NEVER, come back." I had softened my tone a bit.
"Katni..."
"ENOUGH! Im sick of 'oh Katniss Katniss your the best, but lets go the other way'. If wewe really loved me, then wewe would do this for..." people are starting to watch from the corridor as he cuts me off before I can finish what im saying.
"Katniss Everdeen, will wewe marry me?!" hes on one knee as he pulls a diamond ring out his pocket. It must have been expensive, because its wrapped in dhahabu spots.
"Gale.. I..."
"Please Katniss. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Weve been through everything together, so why not spend the rest of our lives living with children, happy children, that don't have to know anything about our pasts?"
I stand there in shock, not knowing what to do. I turn around, Prim and Mum standing there, among other people, anticipating what I will say.
I have to make a choice. I can either marry him, and be in upendo with the person that makes me light up when hes around, someone I can go hunting with.
Or.
I can be with Peeta. He could be a good father. Hes amazing, he makes me feel warm, he can comfort me and he listens.
The choice.. the choice... the choice. Its been made.
"Gale, I....
TO BE CONTINUED
Thanks for reading! The rest will be published tomorrow, plus maybe some naughty bits ...? idk come back and see.

Deep in the trees, in the midst of their Games,
We stood together: a pact, a team, friends.
Your presence revived me, weakened my pains,
Brought back who I was outside of their lens.
Yet now I lay with you, knowing you’re gone
Watching your innocence fade from your eyes.
As a parting wish, I whisper a song,
A hymn that follows your soul as it dies.
Your eyes flicker shut, your breath is now gone,
Yet your soul echoes throughout the vast wood,
Filling these desolate trees with a song;
And through my tears I stand where wewe once stood,
Holding a young girl whom I barely knew,
Eleven’s tribute, forever my Rue.
Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where they strung up a man they say murdered three.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.
Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where the dead man called out for his upendo to flee.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.
Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where I told wewe to run so we’d both be free.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.
Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Wear a mkufu of rope, side kwa side with me.
Strange things did happen here
