(Peeta's pov)

"Come on Katniss, you can do this!" I tell her trying not to yell in pain as she squeezes my hand so tightly. "Peeta I..I ca..can't" she tells me with tears in her eyes, "You can Katniss, just keep squeezing my hand, we'll get thought this together, always" I tell her placing a kiss on her forehead. A couple of minutes after I can hear crys.."Congratulations, you have a baby boy!" The doctor says handing the baby over to a nurse so he can get checked over, another couple of minutes and I can hear more crying, "Congratulations, you have a baby girl!" The doctor says whilst handing her to a nurse. After the babies and Katniss have been checked the nurses hand over our beautiful babies, I go and lay on the bed next to Katniss holding my son.

"Katniss, what are we going to name them?" I ask her quietly trying not to wake the babies. "How about Willow?" She asks me, "It's perfect" I say giving her a kiss on the cheeks. "What about this little fella?" I ask her, "I'm not too sure, have you got any ideas?" She asks me, "I was thinking Finnick but Finn for short?" I tell her, she looks at our son then looks at me, "Perfect" she says pressing her lips against mine. "Willow Mellark and Finnick Mellark" I can hear her reciting their names over and over, "Peeta! We need to set a date for the wedding!" She shouts, "Sshh Katniss, you'll wake the babies" I whisper to her, "Oh sorry, but I just remembered we haven't set a date. I want to get married to you as soon as possible" she says giving me a kiss on the lips, "We'll get the babies settled in then we can worry about the wedding, and anyway I think we should have it when the babies are older" I tell her, "Why?" She asks me, "Well I was thinking we don't have to get married straight away, we could wait until they're old enough to remember the day their parents got married?" I explain to her, "Willow could be my flower girl! Oh Peeta it's perfect" she replies.

(Katniss' pov)

It's been two weeks since we brought our babies home for the first time, they have been the most amazing two weeks of my life, Willow and Finn are the cutest babies! I can tell already that Willow is going to be like me, shes starting to grow gorgeous brown hair, she has Peeta's lovely blue eyes though. Finnick is going to be more like Peeta, with his lovely blonde hair starting to show, but he has my eyes! Peeta is such a great father, you can tell he's always wanted to be a father. We took them to the bakery yesterday so the boys could see them, Haymitch is round all the time giving the babies plenty of hugs. He told us the other day that he has given up drinking to be a better role model for the twins! I couldn't believe what I was hearing! "Katniss! There's someone on the phone for you!?" Peeta yells at me from downstairs, I run downstairs and grab the phone, "hello?" "Hi Katniss" I know that voice, the voice I haven't heard in ages, "Johanna" "Hey Katniss, I really need your help!" ....
