I wake up and the first thought that goes through my head is "where is my baby?"
I sit up and look around the room. The only ones here are me and a sleeping Peeta.
He's sleeping in a chair beside my bed and I nudge him to wake him up.
He stirs and mumbles something. He's so cute. I nudge him harder this time and we wakes up.
"Kat, your awake! I was so worried when you fainted." He says.
"Where's my baby, Peeta?" I ask as calmly as I can.
He smiles, which relieves me, and says,"She's beautiful Katniss. She's waiting to meet you. The doctor said to call him when you wake up."
"Call him. Now." I say excitedly.
He does as I say and when the doctor comes in holding my baby girl my heart stops. He hands her to me and I just can't believe how beautiful and amazing she is.
"I have a daughter," I whisper to myself,"a beautiful, beautiful daughter."
Peeta comes closer and stares at her with love. I guess he just needed to see her. Right in this moment, I feel as if everything will be okay. We'll be okay.
"So what are we going to name her?" He asks.
I smile at him, then at my daughter. I know.
"Melody Rose Mellark."
----------------------------------------------
Sorry this chapter was short. I just seemed right to end it there. Plus the whole point of this chapter was to introduce the baby. I named her Melody because Katniss has a beautiful singing voice, plus it was one of the names they were thinking about, and Rose after Primrose.
I hope you're all enjoying my story so far and if you have any opinions or suggestions, please comment.
