I wake up with my head resting on Peeta's bare chest. I watch him sleep for a few mintues. I kiss him softly on the cheek and begin to get out of bed when Peeta grabs my waist and pulls me closer to him back in bed. Peeta gives me a big passionate kiss on the lips and then says, "Good morning my beautiful fiancée" I blush and look at my hand with the beautiful ring Peeta asked me to marry me with. We get up and get dressed and head downstairs. I'm not going any where important today so I throw on sweats and braid my hair. I sit on the couch and turn on the news while Peeta makes breakfast. No one knows about Peeta and I being engaged yet. We eat omelets and drink orange juice. I start to wash the dishes when Peeta says, "About our new house, let's plan it out today okay?" I nod and finish washing dishes. I start to hear something digging at the front door. I open to see the scruffy cat I could never get along with. Prim's cat buttercup. How the hell did she survive the bombing? She invites her self in and jumps on the couch. She is pretty fat. She is a good mouse hunter. I walk up to her and pet her. I notice she is pregnant. "Awh you are exspecting many kittens" I say and laugh. Peeta smiles and pets her too.

"I guess she is moving with us then" Peeta asks.

"I guess so" I answer.

Peeta and I discuss what I want our house to look like. I don't really care but since we are so rich I guess we could build a house of our dreams. We decide to buy furniture from the Capitol. Our kitchen is large so Peeta can do all the cooking he wants. We have a dinning room and large living room that has a large full length window and sliding door to a patio in front of the lake. The patio will have a grill and a table with chairs. Downstairs there is an art room for Peeta to paint whenever he wants. Upstairs there will be 5 bedrooms. A master room with a bathroom connected to it for Peeta and I. The third floor is a gym for Peeta and I to stay in shape. There is a separate room for me to throw arrows. Just like at the Quarter Quell when everyone watched me hit moving targets. Each bedroom has its own bathroom and walk in closet. It looks perfect on paper and I can't wait for it to be built. Peeta says he will get people from the Capitol to come build it. Once it's built we can start to pick our furniture and decor. I can't wait.

"Thank you Peeta, for being amazing." I say and kiss his cheek. I remember I still haven't told anyone he proposed to me. I tell Peeta I'm going to tell my mother and Haymitch. I head off to my mothers home.

"Hey mom" I say opening the door.

"Hi Katniss, what have you been up to?" My mom asks me.

"Oh nothing just saying yes to Peeta proposing to me" I scream and hold my hand out so she can see my ring.

"Oh my Katniss!! I'm so happy for you two and look at that gorgeous ring!! My mom's eyes widen and analyze the beautiful pearl and diamonds.

"Thanks Mom. Oh and Peeta and I are building a house in the meadow on the lake" I exclaim.

"That sounds wonderful. I cannot wait to see it once it is built!" My mother cheers. I say bye to her and head off to Haymitches house.

"What brings you around here sweetheart?" Haymitch asks.

"Just wanted to let you know Peeta and I are engaged" I say and show him my ring.

"Well good for you sweetheart. Can't wait for the wedding" Haymitch says and smiles. The wedding. I forgot about not having my dad around and who would walk me down the aisle? I should ask Haymitch. He does look after me like a father.

"Thanks and I can't wait for the wedding either. I was wondering if you could walk me down the aisle since my father isn't around to" I say and hold back tears because I miss my dad so much. Haymitch smiles and I can see his face light up. I can tell he would be glad to.

"Yes Katniss. Of course I will. Now hurry back to lover boy before he starts looking for you sweetheart!" Haymitch says and nudges me. I feel bad for him because he never got a perfect wedding or the love of his life by Snow. His family and sweetheart was killed. I feel blessed I have still some people I love around. I call everyone and they congratulate me. I tell them I would send invitations in the mail because we haven't decided a date yet. I will soon to be Katniss Mellark. I love the sound of that. I lay down next to Peeta and curl into his chest.

"I love you soon to be Katniss Mellark" Peeta whispers in my ear. I smile and kiss him.

"I love you too. Always Peeta Mellark." I whisper in his ear and kiss his cheek. Peeta holds me close and strokes my hair until I drift asleep.
