Arms
Has been re-written.
A/N: Okay, so I heard this song and I though 'this is perfect for a fanfiction.'…. so yeah, enjoy it…. Based off the song Arms by Christina Perri.
Disclaimer: I do not own The Hunger Games Series…. or Arms. Well, technically I own arms, but not the song Arms. If that makes since.
You put your arms around me,
"Truth is Peeta, when we were back in District 12, I never thought I would ever love you, however being in these Games with you… well… you've knocked me off my feet." We were sitting on the beach. It was our second time being in The Hunger Games together, and I decided to tell you how I felt about you.
"I just feel like when you wrap your arms around me, I don't want you to let go. I feel like I'm at home again." I said to you. "Then let me hold you tighter," was your simple reply. "No, it's just that, I feel like it would be so much easier for you to just let me go. Let me die."
"No"
"Look, how many times are you going to let me change my mind about you, just to come back around again. Aren't you sick of it by now?" I tried asking you, but the truth was, I just wished you would see through those huge walls I put up to keep you out. It never hurts to wish right? I wished that night that we could both get out of this alive so that we could be together. Well, I guess I got my wish huh Peeta? We're both alive, you just hate me and want me dead. Funny how things work out sometimes.
"I could never be sick of you." Was your simple reply, so I tried a different approach. "I can't take it anymore Peeta, this world is coming down on me, I can't find one reason why I deserve to be loved, and before now I was having trouble deciding if I would let you save my life, or if I should just go ahead and die."
"I'm not really giving you an option here Katniss," You began, "Whether you like it or not your going to get out of this thing alive, you have your mother and Prim who need you… and your cousin Gale. I have no one." Did you know how much pain that sentence caused me? I knew inside you were right, but I couldn't let you go, I still can't.
I know now I make it seem like I don't need, or want you, or even care about you, but I really do. I just don't want to get hurt. Sometimes it seems like you're the one person in my world.
"All throughout this crazy relationship we've shared, I've hurt you by hiding my true feelings, and you still choose my life over your own? Why Peeta? Just tell me why?" I needed you to understand that Peeta, I needed you to live.
"Because I love you. No matter what you do or say, I love you. You've hurt me, but you've also healed me. I love you. Nothing can change that."
Look, I know your memories are wacko and your confused, but I love you, and I'm willing to do anything to get you back. I wasn't before, I stayed away from you and treated you harshly, but I'm sorry for that. I was scared for you, scared for me, and scared for us. Now I know that if you were in my position, you would do anything to get me back. I'm done hiding my feelings.
I love you.
I love you Peeta, I haven't always loved you, but I do now, and I will for the rest of my life, the thing that really sucks now is that I realize this now that I've lost you. The Games are over, and your gone. I want you to put your arms around me, because even though I'm in District 12 again, it's when you put your arms around me that I'm home.
