Katniss pov.(2 day after birth)

Today is Louisa's press day...not excited about it. There already is 300 people and 100 news reporters. We were keeping the pregnancy private but since we're the presidents, everything we do is in the news so the private pregnancy was a failure. But Peeta's coma wasn't in the news which surprised me.

Right now we are getting ready to bring Louisa outside and talk to the reporters then leave to go home(presidents mansion). I'm wearing a blue mainstay tunic with skinny jeans and flats. I still have a pregnant stomach that's looks like a 6 months stomach but the shirt makes me look "sexy"(That's what Peeta said.) . My hair is going to be in a pony tail. Peeta is wearing a lite blue button top with kakis. And Louisa is wearing a Newborn Layette white baby gown with off white chiffon flowers.

"Do you think she needs a jacket?" Peeta asked.

"I don't think so. It's the end of June, plus she has a long sleeve on." I said back.

We start to head for the main entrance doors. All I could hear is screaming. Even high pitch screams. They probably belong to capitol citizens. Louisa is awake which is good. She wont be awaken by screams but, she's in my arms that she loves to been in. There's this feeling I cant Describe but, it's a good feeling.

Peacekeepers open the doors and flashes are blinding me. Peeta puts his right hand on my lower back. We go down half way to the stairs and stop. We wave for a little bit to the crowds.

"Do you want me to hold her?" Peeta asked me.

"That would be lovely." I gave Louisa to Peeta very gently."Do you have her?" He nods.

We go down the rest of the steps and go to the reporters.

"Was the birth very emotional?" A reporter said. I have nothing to say. Peeta was in a coma when I was giving birth.

"Very emotional" Peeta said. I finish the sentence for him.

"It was very emotional. It's a special time that any parent would understand this feeling." I said.

"Very emotional." Peeta said.

"What's her name?" The same reporter said.

"We haven't decided yet." Peeta said. I'm so grateful he said that. I'm not ready to have Louisa's name everywhere.

"Who does she looks like?" A different reporter said. Peeta looks down at her but he knows that she looks like me.

"She got her looks thankfully." He nods his head towards me.

"No, no, no." I said. We start to walk to the other side of reporters.

"Who has change the first diapie?" A capitol reporter said.

"He was the one that changed it. Thankful not me cause it was a stinky one." The reporters start to laugh. We start to walk up the stairs again. I see a woman that's yelling and slapped a little girl. I tell Peeta that I'll be right back. I walk up to the woman and said."Is there a problem?" I can tell she got all nervous.

"No Mrs. President. She ran away from me and disobeying me." she said.

"What's your name missy?" I said to the little girl.

"Rue." She said shyly. When she said Rue I just freeze for a second. I crouch down and put my hands out to her. She puts her hands in my hands. I see little cuts in her wrists. "How old are you Rue?"

"8" She said.

"Why are you hurting your self?" she shrugs her shoulders.

"My sister told me it took pain away."
