"Gale?." I stutter out finally.
I'm so socked that I don't know what to do.
Gale my ex friend is standing right out side my house.
"Katniss." he says making me shocked.
He never says my real name it's always catnip.
"You shouldn't be here." I finally say closing the door.
"Wait." he say stopping it with his foot making me jump back.
The last time this happened he threatened to kill Peeta.
"I just want to talk." he says calmly.
"I don't think that's a good idea." I say getting worried.
What if this is a trick?
A trick to get into my house and harm my family.
I suddenly remember my children who are sitting in the kitchen.
"I just want to talk. I promise I've got a lot to explain and as soon as I'm finished il leave." he says making me sigh.
"Go to the living room." I say opening the door wider.
He smiles sadly before walking through to the living room.
I push my hair out of my face before going into the kitchen.
"Who was at the door?" Peeta asks looking at me.
"Gale." I say and he looks at me fast.
"I let him in." I tell peeta honestly.
"What did you do that for?" He asks confused.
"He wants to explain and il love it if you came with me. I don't want to be alone." I tell him truthfully.
"Okay il come." he says.
We get willow and noah out of their highchairs before walking slowly into the living room.
"Gale." peeta says loud enough for him to here.
"Peeta" he smiles looking up from the couch.
He stands up looking at willow and noah and I hold willow higher sacred incase he does something.
"They look just like you. they're beautiful." gale smiles making me surprised.
"Thank you." me and Peeta reply thankfully.
We relax setting willow and Noah on the floor to play.
I sit on the sofa on the opposite to gale and Peeta sits on the chair opposite us.
"I'm sorry katniss and Peeta. I'm sorry for coming to your house stalking you. I guess I just thought you would want to be with me but now I realise that was wrong of me." he says pausing.
"You two are perfect together." he continues before smiling.
I smile back for the first time since I've seen him.
"Thank you." I answer before looking at Peeta who smiles back at me.
"I've had lots of time to think and I'm not sure but could I be your friend again? I've really missed you." gale asks looking at me.
I look at Peeta who nods his head.
"Okay. Of course il be your friend." I smile making gale smile.
"Thank you it means so much having a second chance I totally messed up." he sighs.
"Gale I promise I forgive you just forget it now." I say as willow stands up walking towards me.
She stands looking at gale for a moment before lifting her arms up for him to pick her up.
"Can I?" Gale asks unsure.
"Of course" Peeta answers smiling.
Gale lifts willow into his arms and she happily sits on his knee.
"She looks so much like you apart from her eyes of course." he says looking at Peeta.
"Best part of Peeta." I joke making Peeta gasp.
"What about this?." Peeta asks meaning to his face.
We all laugh for the first time ever and it actually feels nice.
"I was joking." I smile.
"I know you were." he answers blowing a kiss and for once gale doesn't seem jealous.
"I'm glad you found each other." gale says out of nowhere.
"I'm sure you will meet someone soon." I say trying to give him hope.
"Actually I already have." he says slowly.
"That's great." Peeta beams honestly and I agree.
"It's not serious, we aren't official but I suppose we could be together." he says before smiling slightly.
"Well maybe if you do get together we could all meet." I suggest.
"That would be cool." gale says.
Noah comes over and sits on the sofa next to me looking at gale.
"If I can ask what are their names?" Gale asks unsure.
"Willow rose and Noah rye" Peeta and I say at the same time.
"There beautiful names, just like them." gale says smiling at Noah.
"They may look cute and innocent but try looking after them by yourself." I say before we all laugh.
Gale and Peeta seem to be getting on great.
Maybe their is hope after all.
And after 1 and a half years I finally feel like I've got my best friend back.
