Loved it! I’ve read a ton of these pre-epilogue stories, and think you did an awesome job of getting into her head. This story satisfied my need to know what happened. Thanks so much for writing!

Beautiful story. I love the explanation of how Katniss finally realises her feelings in the books and thus was a lovely expansion. Thanks for sharing

Thanks,I loved this!

I read this before and then couldn't find it again. I'm glad I found it.

Oh my gosh that was so beautiful. I love the way you portrayed Katniss; how she poured out her feelings to Peeta. He deserved to hear that. I really enjoyed this. It is definitely going on my list of favorites in THG fandom.

That's it! Im taking this as cannon! I love it!

God Damn Great Story! And I promise you, it has nothing of similarity with “Grow Together”. It really is a sweet story with its own uniqueness.
If you want to, you should absolutely check out: “Worse Games to Play- Belmione”, “When Real Is Not Enough” and “Growing New Wings”- SkyLark89, “Stitching-Knitting-Weaving- justadram” and also “Scars-holymfwickee”. But the first three ones are the best ever!

This was really beautiful, thank you :)

I always find myself being drawn back to this story, due to the intensity of emotions here. You portrayed katniss very realistically. Thank u for writing this :)

this is one of my favourite THG stories ever - I especially love the part where Katniss tells Peeta how she came to care about him and her routine about protecting Prim
thank you for writing this gem!

This was beautifully written and I really enjoyed it so thank you :)

Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing this! I believe you DID absolutely tap into Katniss' mind, and explained her behavior and reservations in showing her feelings to Peeta perfectly! It helped me understand her actions in Mockingjay better. You really "get" her character! Thank you for giving us readers the dialouge/interactions between Katniss and Peeta that were so absent from the end of Mockingjay. I wouldn't have changed any of your story, it was so well written.

I love how these make me feel like their real.

Congratulations on a job well done! This is exactly how I imagined Katniss and Peeta growing together after the rebellion should start out. Its full of anger, spite and raw feelings of betrayal, lost and hurt. Thank you for this wonderful fic!

So I was checking out your profile in the hope that Richochet had been updated..and how have I not seen this before! But seriously this was amazing. I loved that Katniss explained everything to Peeta, haven't seen that before.

I wouldn't worry about any similarities to other stories. I have read a ton of those pre epilogue stories and I didn't think there was anything that seemed like you ripped it off another one. There is only so much you can do with that time period and with the amount of five out there of course there will be similarities.

But yea lovely story and lovely writing as always :-)
