    Suzanne Collins
    “Peeta, how come I never know when you're having a nightmare?” I say.

    “I don't know. I don't think I cry out or thrash around or anything. I just come to, paralyzed with terror,” he says.

    “It's not necessary. My nightmares are usually about losing you,” he says. “I'm okay once I realize you're here.”
    ― Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire
