═════════════════════════════════════════ It was a stormy night, lightning crackling through the sky. Loud thunder startled the birds, sending them from their nests. Tomorrow was the 3rd Quarter Quell, and the twist had affected both Peeta and Katniss. All previous victors would be re-picked for this year's Hunger Games. Katniss had expressed her fear and anger to Peeta, which was knew for her. She didn't like talking about last year's games. Peeta had gotten engaged for show on the Victory Tour, and were set to get married soon. That was until the Quarter Quell twist was announced. Now, they weren't. Peeta had real feelings for Katniss, though he was sure she didn't feel the same. After all, it was all for show. Right?

Peeta jostled awake to screaming. His heart dropped. Katniss. He immediately knew she was having nightmares. This begun after the first Hunger Games. Katniss would relive the events in her sleep, and scream herself awake. It was beginning to become a normal experience now.

He slipped on some warm clothes, a creme sweater, a white tank-top, and brown cargo shorts, and quickly made his way to Katniss's room. When he entered, she was wide awake, staring at the door. Waiting for him. "Katniss." He said softly. "Relax. I get them too." He said quiety. Katniss was shaking with fear. Even he, didn't get nightmares that bad. He sat next to her, reassuring her that everything was alright. Katniss asked him to stay. "Will you stay with me?" She asked quite frantic.
