After the war things are never the same between Katniss and Peeta, he is not the same. Katniss forgives Gale for the bombings knowing that he would never intend to kill Prim after years of looking out for her. After losing hope of Peeta ever returning to her the way he was, Katniss falls back in love with Gale, her best friend and hunting partner, and is reminded of her life before the Games, where she was happy and free. She tries to fix herself, the broken girl on fire, but can she ever erase her scars and learn to love Gale the same way she used to do?
*This story is set just after President Coin's death in The Hunger Games - Mockingjay*

"The Time We Lost," Hunger Games Fanfiction--- Katniss x (female)self-insert
5 years ago, the 70th Hunger Games arena had been flooded by a giant earthquake, breaking the dam that was placed in the center. Almost every tribute had drowned besides the obvious victor, Annie Cresta, and the survivor that had gone missing, Gale's little sister [........] Hawthorne After her impossible escape from death, she embarks on a mission to be reunited this the girl she had loved and left behind-- a one-sided love- Katniss Everdeen. Throughout the story, she realizes that from her going missing for so long, the relationship she had built with Katniss had been long in the past, and she had been replaced with her brother, Gale, and Katniss's new admirer, Peeta Mellark. Follow as the story takes you into how everything they had became just a memory and their attempt to rebuild the relationship [.......] always wanted. Authors Note: I tried to make this story as book accurate as possible, but of course with their being a new leading character added, the story will not follow it directly. I did this on purpose. There are also head canons in this because of another character. Most important, this is a lesbian based fan fiction. I am not claiming Katniss's sexuality whatsoever, in fact, in the story, it is obvious that the insert character's love is completely one sided. This story can take on some adult themes and language, like the original trilogy does, so please be aware of that. I hope you enjoy the fanfic and please leave some likes and comments down if you enjoyed it or want to give an opinion of what you think would've happened. ♥️ !I do not own the characters ;)! I also made the cover 😘Complete

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. ➳➳➳ The years following the war. Post canon, basically what leads to the epilogue. CW: Mild sexual content, violence, death, pregnancy, panic attacks 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.Complete
