_Eight Months Later_

"Shhhhh, it's okay baby" I coo as I bounce my crying baby, our precious baby Thomas, he looks like his father and acts already a bit like him but... speaking of Peeta he has me suspicious, he always stays late at the bakery but I know he's not cheating on me but it's something else... because I know cheaters don't still show his children affection and he doesn't still be very affectionate with his wife in many ways... but something is odd about him and I don't know what but whenever he's on the phone and I walk in he ends up saying goodbye to the person and quickly hanging up and I've heard him talk on one phone call which he said 'I can't know' and that 'we can't come home' which makes me think it's to do with something at home

"Mommy?" I turn to see Willow at the door way looking at me as I cover Thomas with a blanket while he feeds

"Yes baby?" I reply as she walks over and sits in front of me on the floor

"Why does Tommie cry?" She asks curiously and I smile

"Because, he isn't able to talk and so now he has to cry when he's hungry or thirsty or wants mommy cuddles" I explain and she giggles

"I like mommy cuddles" she giggles as I finish feeding Thomas and cover up before taking the blanket away and wrapping him up, I'm about to say something before Peeta appears at the doorway

"Willow princess, go downstairs, I need to talk to mommy for a minute" he says and Willow nods going out of the room

"I know you know Katniss" he says leaning against the doorframe and I continue to rock Thomas, his grey eyes looking into mine and I look back at Peeta

"I have no idea what you're talking about" I lie and he crosses his arms, his muscles practically ripping through his shirt which for my case now is very intimidating

"I think you do. You've been quiet and that's not like you" he says and I sigh

"Who've you been talking to on the phone" I demand as I lay Thomas in his crib

"Katniss. I can't tell you, it's better off this wa---"

"No. Don't you dare Peeta Mellark! After everything we've been through you decide to leave this all behind you thinking I wouldn't know" I snap

"It's much more than that! It's to keep my family safe!" He fights back

"How are we safe when you're keeping it to yourself! What if something happens to you! Or worse to the kids!" I yell and Thomas starts crying again at the sound of raised voices and I pick him back up shooshing him as I bounce him

"You can leave now. I don't want Willow downstairs by herself for any longer" I state not wanting to deal with fighting with him anymore.

Dinner that night was silent and so was the time when it was time for bed, I lay awake with Peeta's back facing me and in this moment I feel lonely and afraid, I never liked fighting with Peeta but we have to sometimes but it doesn't happen all the time and when it does I feel empty, lonely and afraid which also makes me cry, my sobs start off quiet and then get louder which eventually wakes Peeta making him turn on the bedside lamp and frowns

"Bad dream?" He asks and I shake my head

"Then why are you crying?" He whispers

"B-b-because you hate m-me" I sob and he pulls me to his chest

"Katniss... I don't hate you baby, it's just a little fight is all and it's what happens with every married couple, fight then make up, so I don't hate you it's just I hate fighting with you" he explains rubbing my back soothingly and I look at him and he wipes my tears away and we kiss, I keep hold of the back of his neck to deepen our kiss as his warm hand rubs very high up my thigh making me moan into his mouth and he smirks, I pull away from him and take the risk of asking

"Please Peeta, tell me. I want to know what's going on" I say as we sit up right and he sighs

"It's Gale, his pack helped him escape before your uncle could even kill him and now he is trying to search for us... for Willow" he says and I feel the fear build up inside me

"Well? Has he found us?" I ask

"No. Luckily, I was hoping to... go back and help, you stay here with the kids" he says and I think to myself what a stupid idea that is

"Peeta. You listen to me! We're in this thing together, we're married and we stick together, we're both able to protect our kids. We're going with you unless you decide to stay here" I reply and he sighs caressing my cheek

"You don't know how much I love you right now" he admits and I smile

"We go as a family and we stay as a family" I proudly state and he brightly smiles at me and continues what we started earlier.
