HAYMITCH ABERNATHY: FIVE YEARS OF FAME Five years since he won the Quell. Five years since his name was carved into history. Five years since he lost everything and turned to the drink. Five years of isolation to keep the few people he had left safe. Five years of grief, guilt, and heartbreak. Two months to uncover the truth. Two months to tell the real story. Two months to change Panem with nothing but her pen and paper. If only history had been kind enough to warn them that Capitol-born citizens and District Twelve victors rarely survive each other. જ⁀➴ MAIN SYNOPSIS INSIDE HAYMITCH ABERNATHY x OC Slow Burn ; Grumpy x Sunshine ; Second Chance

Wren is a depressed, anxious, and as her mother and sister say 'worthless' sixteen year-old, until she meets Rook, and it feels like she's actually being seen. In Rook's arms the world seems right, but what happens if she never lets him in....and what happens if Rook were to disappear... ~~~ He looks back at me, watching me study him. I look away, its now my turn to study the horizon. I can feel heat blooming on my cheeks and I can feel his eyes taking in every bit of my face. I feel his finger softly touch my cheek. I jump a little, and he lowers his hand. "Sorry" He says softly, I can see his guard going back up. "No its fine-I just....wasn't expecting it." I say, swallowing. Did I really just say that? What was wrong with me.... Suddenly I had this urge to take his hand and put it back on my cheek. I flushed at the thought. This was getting so awkward. I looked up at him. His eyes seemed cold, calculating. I couldn't say I liked this, but then his eyes softened, and the unimaginable happened. His hand materialized, tucking a stray piece of my hair behind my ear. He was so focused on the strand, but then his focus spread to my eyes, the look in his eyes. Jesus, I'm going to melt. He was looking at me like his universe surrounded me, like I knew the answers, like I could fix his cracks. The worst part was....I could see the exact same on his face as he could see on mine. ~~~ #2 in military #827 in anxiety #22 in separated

"Find beauty in the rain," his mother would call from the kitchen, her voice soft and sweet like honey, just loud enough so Murphy could hear it over the constantly running tap of the kitchen sink. Then, she would light the fireplace, curl up next to Murphy on the couch by the window, and read aloud to him until he fell asleep. Murphy had yet to find beauty in the rain. Now, all it made him think about was the version of his mother he had lost. For a brief moment Murphy rested his head against the steering wheel, his long, unkempt brown hair hanging over his eyes. That was until his peacefulness was interrupted by frantic tapping on his car door. Murphy snapped his head up in annoyance and through his rain-covered window, was met with the sight of a familiar dark-haired man knocking wildly on the glass, a look of desperation in his eyes. "Bellamy?" Murphy said as he rolled down his window, his tone heavy with indignation, "what the hell do you want?" Murphy's chest began to fill with a sense of irritation and dread not only at the fact his secret spot had been found out, but also the fact his arch nemesis was the one that had found it.

There was a version of my husband I didn't meet until years into our marriage. This is the story of what happened when I did - and the love that held on through all of it. Three babies in three years, and a secret only I carried for far longer than anyone knew. This isn't his story. It's mine - the silence, the strength, and the love that never left, even in the hardest years. We didn't just survive it. We grew into something neither of us knew we could be.
