lllll Fangirl Problems: lllll

It had been over a year since Gale had last spoken
to Katniss. He finally brought himself to this ancient
payphone, phonebook in hand. Anticipation filled his body.

Quickly, he turned to the "E"s, scanning
the pages for her name. It wasn't there.

A sudden wave of realization hit Gale,
drowning him. He closed his eyes as his fingers
numbly flipped further through the book. It took all the
courage he could muster to open his eyes.

There, on the "M" page, was her name.

Katniss Mellark.

A sharp pain pierced his chest and he let out
an almost incomprehensible gasp. With his lips still
slightly parted and a warm, lone tear sliding down
his cheek, Gale put the phone book down,
never to use one again.
