    “Finnick?" I say, "Maybe some pants?"
    He looks down at his legs as if noticing his outfit for the first time. Then he whips off his hospital gown leaving him in just his underwear. "Why? Do you find this" -- he strikes a ridiculously provocative pose -- "distracting?"

    “I'm going to wake Peeta," I say.
    "No, wait," says Finnick. "Let's do it together. Put our faces right in front of his."
    Well, there's so little opportunity for fun left in my life, I agree. We position ourselves on either side of Peeta, lean over until our faces are inches frim his nose, and give him a shake. "Peeta. Peeta, wake up," I say in a soft, singsong voice.
    His eyelids flutter open and then he jumps like we've stabbed him. "Aa!"
    Finnick and I fall back in the sand, laughing our heads off. Every time we try to stop, we look at Peeta's attempt to maintain a disdainful expression and it sets us off again.”
    Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire

    “What about Gale?"
    "He's not a bad kisser either," I say shortly.
    "And it was okay with both of us? You kissing the other?" He asks.
    "No. It wasn't okay with either of you. But I wasn't asking your permission," I tell him.
    Peeta laughs again, coldly, dismissively. "Well, you're a piece of work, aren't you?”
    Suzanne Collins, Mockingjay

    “But I have to confess, I'm glad you two had at least a few months of happiness together."
    I'm not glad," says Peeta. "I wish we had waited until the whole thing was done officially."
    This takes even Caesar aback. "Surely even a brief time is better than no time?"
    Maybe I'd think that, too, Caesar," says Peeta bitterly, "If it weren't for the baby.”
    Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire

    Suzanne Collins
    “I know what blood poisoning is, Katniss," says Peeta. "Even if my mother isn't a healer."
    I'm jolted back in time, to another wound, another set of bandages. "You said that same thing to me in the first Hunger Games. Real or not real?"
    "Real," he says. "And you risked your life getting the medicine that saved me?"
    "Real." I shrug. "You were the reason I was alive to do it.”
    Suzanne Collins, Mockingjay

    “It's meant to be pretty," whispers Octavia, and I can see the tears threatening to spill over her lashes.

    Suzanne Collins
    “Peeta's awake already, sitting on the side of the bed, looking bewildered as the trio of doctors reassure him, flash lights in his eyes, checks his pules. I'm disappointed that mine was not the first face he saw when he woke up, but he sees it now. His features registrer disbelief and something more intense that I can't quite place. Desire? Desperation? Surely both, for he sweeps the doctors aside, leaps to his feets and moves towards me. I run to meet him, my arms extended to embrace him. His hands are reaching for mine too, to caress my face, I think.

    My lips are forming his name when his fingers lock around my throat.”
