I hope its okay with yall I'm gonna pick up 4 months later where Katniss is now showing. -Torii
(Katniss)
I'm woken up by the movement of the bed as if someone has gotten up. It's probably Peeta. I turn around to see and sure enough it's him. He's standing next to the bed in just his grey briefs,noticing that he woke me.
"I'm sorry. I just realized what time it is. We slept in longer than usual."
"What time is it?" I say in my sleepy voice.
"12:50" he says. My eyes widen. The latest Peeta and I have ever slept in was 11. But lately I've been pretty lazy ever since my belly started growing so its not a huge shock for me.
"I would've gotten up earlier but I didnt wanna leave you so I just fell back to sleep."I smile, still my actions are sleepily. He leans over on the bed and gives me a gentle kiss that I gladly return.
"Now, let's get rid of that morning breath, huh?" He says with a smirk. We freshen up and put on some clothes before going downstairs for breakfast. I was expecting to see the kids but they were long gone off to school. I forgot it was Thursday. Peeta usually takes Thursday's off or, any day he wants off since he owns the bakery. While Peeta makes us breakfast I lay on the couch curled up under a red blanket that was left there. I start searching through the channels for something interesting, but I don't find anything interesting so I just turn it off and lay there. Not a thought in my mind for once. Just enjoying being lazy. I move my hand and it meets my, not too big, but growing stomach. I give it small circular rubs. This baby is going to be gorgeous. This baby is going to have the amazing talents of its father,the independence that everyone says I have. I want it here. Right now. And that's something I've never wished for so early in pregnancy. My thoughts are cut off by Peeta lifting my legs to sit and resting them on his lap. I smile at him. God, the love I have for him is so strong I wanna scream. He reaches his hand out and strokes my unbraided perfectly wavy hair. He stares me straight in the eyes. His eyes show love, passion,and joy, all the ingredients to make my heart pound and get those butterflies going in my stomach. Or that could be the baby in ther?. He moves the hand he was stroking my hair with and put its over my hand that's still on my stomach.
"What do you think the gender is?" I take a moment to think because I've never thought about the gender. Just getting it here healthy and normal.
"I don't know. Maybe a boy?"
"Maybe it is. But I will love this baby either way." I know he will, he doesn't have to say it, but I love hearing it. I pull myself up, with my legs still on his lap. I put my hand on the back his head and play with his hair. He looks as if he can't help himself, and I'm probably right because he begins to kiss me aggressively and goes straight for the make out hungrily. Like he's the one with the hormones. But I'm not complaining, I love it. He begins to move closer so I move my legs around his waist as he lowers me down and is now on top of me.
(Peeta)
I'm so tempted to make love to her at this moment. Why didnt I just go for a simple kiss. But this is amazing. I just started something I can't finish. I feel as if I almost need it. But I wanna wait until tomorrow night. When we will finally go out again. It's been since the week before we conceived the baby inside Katniss right now that we've gone out just the two of us. Now I just need to clarify with her. I pull away before we begin to go further. I slide myself down to the bump on her stomach. It's growing quick, and I love the way she looks pregnant. It's beautiful. I place a gentle kiss right in the center of her stomach. I get myself up to my feet and reach a hand out to her.
"Breakfast is waiting." She grabs my hand without hesitation after my statement. For breakfast I made pizza bagels. I know how hungry Katniss gets and I'm always on her case about eating healthy so I think she deserves this. And plus its noon. As soon as she sees it her face lights up which makes me laugh inside.
"Yes!! I've missed these!" She says almost desperately. I pull out her chair just enough for her to squeeze through to sit down. I sit down directly in front of her. She immediately reaches her hand out to the big glass plate with pizza bagels and puts about 5 on her plate and digs in.
"Slow down. You don't wanna stomach ache." I say taking a few bagels slowly onto my plate.
"I know" she says playfully sounding annoyed.
"So when's your next appointment?" I ask making sure it doesn't interfere with my plans.
"Umm..Saturday at 1pm." She says taking a bite out of the bagel.
"Perfect, cause I was thinking about going out tomorrow night."
"Really?" She says in shock. She obviously knows its been too long also.
"Yeah, just the two of us. Alone." I grab her hand that's rested on the table. "Like old times."
"Where would the kids go?"
"Well we can leave Peete with Haymitch and Levinia's going out with her friends." Hhmm, we haven't seen Haymitch in a week. He's probably been dr lately since that's the main reason he doesn't visit us even though he's just next door.
"Where's Levinia going?"
"I thought she told you. She's going to the plaza with 3 of her friends and Adyn's mom agreed to bring her home by 11."
The plaza is one of those places where teens are always at on the weekends. When they rebuilt District 12 they added that although its meant for all ages. There's an arcade, pizza place, movie theater,frozen yogurt, even a few other restraunts.
"By 11? Peeta she's 13, the latest I want her out is 10."
"Well, yeah, but I thought we could spend more time alone....And Levinia begged me and you know I give in easily. " She sighs at this. I'm strict when I need to be with the kids. I know when to say no, but when they beg I give in. I only said no to a beg once and that was when Levinia wanted to dye her hair. Things have changed since the rebellion. Hair dye was non existing here in District 12. A lot of things were. Her hair is beautiful and I want her to accept who she is because its beautiful. Same with Peete. They're gorgeous.
"Well you already said yes, so let's just leave it at that."
After breakfast we both just lay around on the couch kissing and watching TV with snacks until the kids got home like we always do on my days off. It's not much, but we love being with each other.
