He's a tattoo artist, the kind all the celebrities go to. She's the florist next door, the kind that hides behind the flowers she arranges. All she knows is he's devilishly handsome, she is nervous as hell, and he has some damn good advice. After walking 25 feet to the shop next door, Katniss may have found something worth stopping for besides just to smell the roses.

Living Lies ✜ Hunger Games x Reader
❝ The moment the Games began I was living a lie. ❞ ❈ Born and raised in the Seam, life was never without its challenges, and choices were never made with ease. You, and your family, survived because of your own resilience; and the help of your closest friends. Years later, when Primrose Everdeen's name is drawn in the Reaping for the 74th Hunger Games, you know you have to volunteer. If not for her, then for her sister; for your friend. The months that follow are riddled with challenges - one of the most difficult is your district partner Peeta Mellark - and learning how to survive the twists the Games throw at you. But the stakes only get higher the further you go, and in order to survive you must do things you were never prepared to do; play a role, make unthinkable sacrifices, and choose a path that inevitably leads to living a lie. ✔ Completed (UNDERGOING REVISION 8.27.19) ≿----- ❈ -----≾ RANKING as of 5.4.20.: ❈ #6 in peeta ❈ #1 in thehungergamesfanfiction ❈ #8 in quarterquell ❈ #1 in readerfanfiction ≿----- ❈ -----≾ Reader Reviews: "This story is awesome, number one.

Canary in the Coalmine
THIS IS NOT MY STORY, I TAKE NO CREDIT! "She traces the timer on her wrist without even thinking about it. It's not counting. Of course, it's not counting. She zeroed out at midnight - the official start of her husband's eighteenth birthday. Her sister stayed up with her, wanting to be there to see the numbers end. Maybe it's a nervous habit now. It's supposed to be comforting. Or at least, it used to be comforting, when she was smaller and the numbers were bigger. They had seemed infinite. For the last week - or month or year, depending on how you look at it - she's only been made nervous by the numbers. Not that worrying helps." In Panem AU where marriages are controlled by the government and everything else is left for the couple to figure out by themselves.Complete
