  When we reach the Victor's Village, we walk by Annie's house.

-"Let's invite Annie over to dinner too", I tell Peeta and he nods

-"Oh God! I havent seen Annie since she was pregnant. The baby must be so big now!", Johanna says.

-"Finn is so big is crazy", Peeta says. "You know Johanna, Im really happy to see you again"

-"Ohh  Peeta… I have missed you too baby", she says as she pinches his cheeks. Then he embraces her in a hug while I go and knock on Annie's. I dont get jealous of Johanna, Peeta and her consider themselves like siblings; after all. they have been through a lot together.

I knock twice and Annie opens the door, carrying Finnie in her arms, who is crying desperately.

-"Hey Katniss, come on in", she says while Finnie cries.

-"Oh no thank you. I see you are busy. I was wondering If you would like to have dinner tonight, around 8㏘?"

-"Oh yes, Ill love it…Finnie baby please", she says to Finnie, who refuses the pacifier Annie gave him. Suddenly, Peeta walks toward us and surrounds me with his strong arms from behind.

-"Hey Annie… Oh Finnie what's wrong baby?",Peeta asks as he lets me go and walks toward Annie and carries Finnie in his arms.

-"Shh… baby don't cry", he says and Finnie stops inmediately and Peeta rocks him until he falls asleep. Annie and I just stared at them. Annie tried to rock and calm him but it was Peeta who got to calm Finnie. He would be an amazing father. Definetely.

-"Im gonna go put him in his crib",Peeta whispers and Annie nods.

-"Oh… well. This was…something strange", Annie says and I nod.

-"I hate the idea of a carnival to celebrate what we try to forget", she says.Finnick's first anniversary is next week. I know how devastated these must be for her.

-"I know", I reply.

Wait… Where is Johanna? I look around but I dont see her. Oh well… Ill ask Peeta later.

-"How can you do it?I was trying to call him for almost an hour and you suddenly grab him and he falls asleep",I turn around and I see Annie and Peeta talking.He laughs at Annie's comment. Apparently, Finnie is already asleep in hic crib.

-"Oh… I dont know. I really like kids and apparently they like me too", Peeta says as he looks at me. I look away. He is indirectly telling me he wants kids badly. I know. But I just wanna get married first.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-"Peeta?", I ask while we walk back to our house. My fingers are interwined in his.

-"Yeah?"

-"Where's Johanna?", I ask.

-"Oh… she said she wanted to give Annie a surprise tonight. Plus she saw a friend and went to talk with him"

-"Oh…okay"

-"Katniss, what do you prefer for dessert tonight? Cheesebuns or cheesecake?", he asks me.

-"Cheesebuns!!", I scream like a little girl. He laughs. "What? Your cheesebuns are the best". Suddenly he grabs me by my waist and pulls me closer to him.

-"No, you are the best", he says and with that my lips crash in his.
