FYI: Katniss is eight and a half months pregnant right now.
We go back to the house and Gale leaves on a hovercraft to 2. Peeta isn't home and I think he went to work at the bakery for a bit while he still can. I have just sat down on the couch, when the phone rings. I heave myself off the couch and waddle over to the phone on the counter. I pick it up and answer.
"Hello?" I ask whoever is on the other line.
"Hey babe, it's Peeta." he says.
"Hey. Are you at work?" I ask.
"Yeah." He replies. "How are you and the baby doing?"
"Good. The baby's kicking a lot, actually." I say just as I start to feel it.
"It doesn't hurt, right?" He asks.
"No, it's fine!" I say and then burst into laughter.
Peeta asks me in a playful tone, "What are you laughing about?"
"I don't even know! It's all my stupid hormones again!" I reply.
"Katniss, I gotta go back to work. I'll be home in an hour. Try to keep those 'stupid hormones' under control, alright?"
"Okay, bye." I hang up.
