~Few Days Later~

"Bye. I'll miss you" Peeta smiles pulling me against him making me wrap my arms around his neck and I roll my eyes

"We're not even going out for that long" I giggle

"But still..." His hands slowly move his hands on my ass

"I'm gonna miss you" he repeats leaning in and our lips touch and we kiss

"Ew! That's disgusting!" Justin says and I giggle making Peeta and I to brake away

"Oh be quiet you. Be good for your father while I'm gone" I firmly state and he nods and I hold my hand out to Mel and she takes it and I take her to the car and strap her in and get in the front seat

"Where do you wanna go bubba?" I ask

"The mall!" She giggles

"Let's go then!" I say starting the car.

I push the trolley with toys around while Mel licks her ice cream. It's been so amazing spending the day with Mel cause we never really get to spend quality time together, I'm always busy with work, the kids have school, Peeta sometimes has his night shifts only two days a week the rest are day and so the kids don't get to spend quality time with us and there is a baby on the way and so Peeta and I want to spend as much time as we can with the kids.

"Mommy. After the baby is born will you and daddy forget about me and Justin?" Mel asks as we sit at Mac Donald's eating our lunch and I frown

"Melody. We may need to pay more attention to the baby but that doesn't mean we won't love you any less. The baby won't be able to think for his or herself so mommy and daddy have to give the baby more attention for a little while but we'll never EVER forget about you or Justin. Is that why you asked for us to have some girl time?" And she nods and I open my arms and she gets out of her spot and sits on my lap hugging me

"Don't worry baby girl. We'll never ever forget you two"

"They feel like they're being forgotten" I sigh as I lay on Peetas chest

"I know. Justin told me the same thing Mel told you. I told him kind of the same thing from what you said" he replies and I sit up

"But it makes me feel like a bad parent..." I whisper getting all teary eyed and Peeta sits up hugging me

"Shhh. It's okay baby. They're just kids. That's how every kid feels. Don't you worry. You're an amazing mother. Trust me" Peeta comforts and I sigh kissing him, longer than our normal kisses

"I love you so much Peeta. Really I don't know what I'd do without you" I say on his lips and he smiles kissing me

"I love you so much too. More than you can ever imagine" he says and we got to sleep.
