It's new, the shape of his body.
It's blue, the feelings they have.

It's been almost 6 months since the end of the war. Katniss and Peeta have managed to regain the friendship they'd thought they lost, but Katniss is unsure if Peeta is ready to face his old feelings and pursue something more between them. Katniss herself worries that she may not be mentally prepared for what a relationship might entail. The problem is, that hunger she felt for him on the beach in the Quell won't relent, and it only grows stronger when they resume their previous sleeping arrangements.

In an attempt to stave off the hunger she feels for Peeta without putting pressure on him to label what exactly he feels for her, she suggests a simple proposition-that they become friends with benefits.

But friends with benefits is never as simple as it sounds. Both Katniss and Peeta yearn for more, but neither has the guts to tell the other, making for a very cruel summer indeed.

Sparks Fly by liberalkitsch

Against all odds, Katniss has survived the Hunger Games, but nothing is as she wishes. Her relationship with Peeta is strained, and whispers of rebellion swirl around them. As they embark on the Victory Tour, Katniss agrees to be friends with Peeta, but quickly realizes she wants more. Their romance becomes real, but as pressure mounts to prove their love to the world, they do the only thing they can think to save them and the people they love: get engaged. But the lines of their public and private lives blur when they decide to marry outside of the pressure of the Capitol, holding a private toasting for themselves in an attempt to preserve as much as their relationship for themselves as they can. As the Quarter Quell is announced, Katniss and Peeta prepare for the Games, each determined to sacrifice themselves for the other's survival. But everything changes when Katniss unexpectedly discovers she is pregnant. Though terrified, she remains resolute in sacrificing herself, while Peeta's love for the unborn child strengthens his will to protect them both. **AU of Catching Fire where Katniss and Peeta are actually pregnant during the 75th Hunger Games.** Largely based on actual characters/descriptions/dialogue from the 2nd book in the Hunger Games trilogy. Credits to Suzanne Collins.

"Stay with me." by nicbella24

THG Fanfiction- Katniss has never talked to her savior, Peeta Mellark, but when their is a bump in their relationship things happen. Will she thank him and dis him, or is their more to the story? You'll have to read to find out. "Do you feel helpless around Peeta because your life was in his hands once? Or is it because you don't want to lose him either?" "I don't know Little Duck." I say looking at her. "I just don't know." ***I do not own any of the characters.

Hijacked (An Everlark Fanfic) (Plot twist/After Mockingjay story) by effiesbutt

This story is based off a mini plot twist, but otherwise this is just an After Mockingjay story. The plot twist is basically that Katniss didn't kiss Peeta when they were in the Capitol during the Rebellion, and how it would effect Peeta's recovering, since that is obviously taking it a step back. --- Katniss is broken, tortured, and she has lost almost everyone she ever took a second to care about. Almost. Peeta is still alive, but also still hijacked. Will Katniss find a way to cure Peeta, and get him to come back to her? And how does their future, after the Rebellion, look? (The first 16 chapters has been re-written, because I accidentally deleted the story oops)

The Nightmares Hidden in Dreams - A Hunger Games Fan Fiction by safeandsound12

"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.

Twisted Perfection ~ Everlark by annitessi1

This is a story about Everlark. Here is my own interpretation of how Peeta and Katniss realistically rekindle after Mockingjay Part 2, but with a twist. They both have a myriad of problems and don't know how to cope with them alone. When Peeta has an un-expected flashback and attacks a vulnerable Katniss, can she cope when he has to go away? Can Katniss recover alone? Can she learn to love again? Can they consolidate and finally find peace? That's the ultimate goal: peace.

Real or Not Real by ShuniceDavies

Peeta's and Katniss' life after the uprising. Do they get their happily ever after? *** "You don't see it do you?" He pauses and brushes some of my hair over my shoulder, "You really are the most beautiful woman i have ever seen." He says it so softly that I barely hear him. I find my breath getting stuck in my throat as I stare up at him, his eyes so full of love and yearning. I don't think anyone has ever looked at me like that, like I was everything. *Everlark**Complete* *Mature*
