All That We Were

Summary:

saudade (n.) - a nostalgic longing to be near again to something, or something that is distant, or that has been loved and then lost; "the love that remains."

---

"TO LOVE AND WIN IS THE BEST THING; TO LOVE AND LOSE, THE NEXT BEST."

---

Three months ago, she woke up in the dark, not a memory to accompany her but her name, one of the first in the experiment. After surviving in the Glade with no hope of escape for so long, a glimmer of her old life arrives in the form of a blonde boy who can't remember who she is. Both recognise the other, but neither knows from where. Their history is complex and hinged on betrayal, and the new love that blossoms is ignorant to it. But change is promised when the new Greenie arrives with not only a message from the people who put them there, but with hope of a way out and, hopefully, a way to regain their memories.

Notes:

This only exists on here due to peer pressure but oh well, here's a long ass fic I wrote because I can't casually enjoy a piece of media without making it my whole personality. Let me know if you like it! Feel free to comment. This fic is totally finished so I'll be uploading it every few days. Enjoy :)
