Peeta and Katniss – The Hunger Games Franchise (2012-2015)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvL-7ntUTwY

When the annual Hunger Games were televised, each year nobody expected more than the usual entertaining fight to the death amongst the 12 Districts’ tributes until the last man stood. So it was a turn up for the books when Peeta and Katniss, the star-crossed lovers of District 12, became the first duo to survive the yearly televised bloodbath. After a shared kiss and a refusal to kill each other through a declaration of love, they won the hearts of the viewing public and forced the Gamemakers’ hand, crowning them both victors.  Matters would only escalate as the saga rolled on; Peeta and Katniss are forced into the Quarter Quell – a celebratory games held every 25 years with darker and more dangerous twists in celebration of The Capitol defeating the 13 districts –  Peeta is captured and brainwashed by the government, and Katniss heads up a rebellion and attempts to save him. They find their way back to each other, notwithstanding Peeta’s attempts on Katniss’ life in his brainwashed state, and it seems their relationship is finally given a chance to blossom as the sun sets on their family in the final scene of the franchise. “Real or not real?” would be the classic line of the two, continuing even as they grew old and raised kids together.
