The Nightmares Hidden in Dreams - A Hunger Games Fan Fiction
"Look, it's your favorite color." I point at the light orange of the sunset.
I hear a faint rustling, and I turn over to see Peeta looking at me instead of the sky. "You remembered," he whispers.
"I remember everything about you," I reply, repeating his words to me. I expect to regret my honesty, feeling like I've shared too much. But I feel like I haven't shared enough. I want to tell him everything about himself, to prove just how much I remember. But I don't.
We just watch each other until the orange fades into dusky blue.

In the years following the dismantling of the Hunger Games, Katniss rekindles the fire between her and Peeta. Over time, they grow back together, relearning to love every part of each other. Moving on from the war isn't easy, especially when Katniss still revisits her greatest fears and worst memories every night. But Peeta is always there, keeping the nightmares away, keeping her safe.
However, though the world is changed, it will never truly be safe.

PSA, there will be canon divergence, and the later books will get pretty dark. Also, I wrote this when I was thirteen or fourteen, so even though it's edited, it might not be good.
