Summary
Just as Roy was finally thinking of himself as someone capable of having a deep, meaningful friendship--with Jamie Tartt of all people--he had to mess it up by wanting more. He was going to have to worry there was something wrong with his definition of intimacy soon, if getting close to people always made him want to kiss them.

Summary
If Katniss is honest with herself, she has spent a lot of time in the last six months or so thinking about what it would be like to kiss Gale. She can’t remember exactly what moment changed everything for her. Katniss never wanted a boyfriend, and marriage was off the table for her—that was what she’d told herself for years. What she told her mother too, on occasion, when she asked.
And perhaps she’s being selfish, but with their bleak reality in the district, was it really wrong to hold on to the small glimpses of light?
Or, the one where Prim is never reaped, Katniss and Gale let love in, and the rebellion finds them anyway.

When Keeley breaks up with Roy after his spontaneous plans to whisk her away to Marbella for the summer, he makes the trip by himself, intent on forgetting about the break up as best he can through as much booze, tapas, and sunshine as one person can manage during one miserable summer.

Post-season 2 AU where, after getting kicked off of Lust Conquers All, Jamie decides not to return to England or football.

Summary
In so many ways, it feels like she’s been Jess Mariano’s since the moment she laid eyes on him five years ago. Paris was right. She’s gone full-blown Felicity over here. He catches her staring. “You okay over there? The room feels uncharacteristically silent.” Jess tosses her a smirk that’s so damn appealing it makes her a little mad. Does he have to be so abnormally beautiful?
“I’m fine. Just thinking,” she grins.
“About…” Jess stretches out the word and gestures with his hand, prompting her forward.
“Nothing in particular,” she hums, which is a lie because she’s mostly thinking that she wants to love him forever.
