As usual I wake up early just like how I use to when I use to hunt, I look next to me and smile at my husbands sleeping face, his curly hair covering his shut eye lids, I guess someone needs a haircut. I quietly get up not wanting to disturb him and I peek my head in our daughters room, also dead to the world... Today is Willows first day of school and she's already making excuses on why she can't go but of course Peeta and I both told her it's a must, no matter how much we wanted to tell her she doesn't have to... I shut her door and walk downstairs and into the kitchen, I look out from the kitchen window and look at all the brown and yellowish leaves that lay on the ground, sighing I make myself a cup of coffee, while that's being made I hear loud footsteps coming down the stairs, it can only be one person... Peeta soon finds me in the kitchen and smiles, he walks up to me and gives me a kiss on the cheek

"Good morning beautiful" he greets and I smile and kiss those soft lips of his

"Morning handsome" I reply making him chuckle

"Do you think Willow will be okay today? Going to school I mean?" I ask Peeta worriedly and he sighs starting to make his own coffee

"I don't know but I do know that she needs the learning. We're both too busy during the day to teach her at home. It's the right thing to do, trust me" he smiles

"Maybe she'll meet a boy who loves her like you love me" I smile but he scoffs

"Like she'll be dating anytime soon. She won't date till she's thirty" he replies protectively and seriously but I just roll my eyes

"If she's anything like her mother then you'll have trouble, cause I know for a fact she's got my stubbornness" I smirk and he mirrors it pulling me to him

"No one is as stubborn as you are, that's what I love most about you though" he replies starting to kiss down my neck and I sigh

"I should probably... go wake Willow" I sigh and he stops kissing to kiss my lips, I make my way upstairs and open the door to Willows room, still sound asleep, jee... she must've gotten Peeta's genes on sleeping in late

"Willow... time to wake up" I softly coo and she starts to stir then slowly her eyes flutter open revealing the enchanting blue eyes which puts a smile on my face

"Morning sleepy. You've got school today" I smile

"Do I have to mommy?" She asks and I give her a small smile while brushing some of her hair back

"I'm afraid so, little duck. But Alessia told me that Hunter will be at your school" I tell her, maybe it'll cheer her up

"But he's my only friend..." she frowns

"You'll make new ones... plus if anyone are mean to you then I'll come down with my bow and arrows with your daddy with his rolling pin" I joke which makes her laugh

"Okay! Let's choose what to wear!" I say standing up and going over to her closet, I pick out a brown blouse with white Autumn leaves on it that has sleeves up to the shoulder, brown cotton cardigan, a skirt about mid thigh on her with white stockings underneath and brown leather knee boots. After her outfit is on we sit on the floor so that I can start plaiting her hair in two as she asks me questions about school

"Mommy? When did you and daddy meet?" She asks, give her the tame version... she's not old enough to know the entire thing...

"We officially met when we were sixteen but daddy had loved me since we were five" I reply, proud with my answer

"You and daddy love each other a lot, don't you?" She admits making me smile

"Yes. Very much" I reply and she giggles, when I finally finish we walk downstairs where Peeta is but now changed and also setting out breakfast
