Being In Love With You - Sequel of After The Always

Chapter 13

Katniss' POV

The ringing bell goes off above us as Peeta, Willow and I enter the bakery.
Thankfully the bakery closed 1/2 an hour ago so no one can gush over Willow and put her into the spotlight.

"Jason?" Peeta shouts as he closes the door behind me.
Willow somehow continues to sleep on my chest as a loud conversation occurs.
"You there?" Peeta shouts again and I place my head over one of Willow's small ears.

"Yup." Jason shouts back.

"You want to come out the front?" Peeta shouts back, louder and I slightly smack his arm.

"Peeta! Willow!" I say gesturing towards his sleeping daughter.

"Sorry." He mouths and I sadly smile.

Jason comes out from the kitchen and smiles when he sees us.
"Let me have a look." Jason suggests and he comes towards me. I turn slightly so Jason can see Willow's head, pressed up on my chest which she must find comforting.

"She's gorgeous." Jason comments and man hugs Peeta.
"Congrats." He congratulates before awkwardly giving me a hug.

"How old is she?" Jason asks me.

"She's 17 weeks Jason." I reply and I look down to Willow with a smile.

Peeta envelopes me into a hug and he kisses me on the head.
"Her name is Willow." Peeta comments and Jason nods.

"A lovely name." Jason tells us and I nod.

"It fits her perfectly." I add.

"Willow looks like an exact copy of Katniss. Am I right?" Jason asks.

"Nearly. She has my nose and eyes." Peeta corrects and I turn to kiss his neck quickly.
"Well, I just came to check up in how you're doing with me not being here." Peeta says, changing the subject.

"Ah, yes... Come with me." Jason says and gestures Peeta into the bakery kitchen.

"I'll be a couple of minutes." Peeta tells me and I nod. Peeta kisses me on the head once again.
He goes into the kitchen with Jason and I'm left out the front with Willow.

Willow wriggles slightly on my chest and I look down to see Willow awake.
"Willow, this is where daddy works." I introduce to her and walk her over to the glass cabinet housing treats that are on display.

I kneel down and show her the bottom row of baked goodies.
"Daddy makes these. They're really yummy. You'll love them when you start eating them." I continue and point to a pink iced cupcake.

I stand up again and spot cheese buns. I walk over to the, and show Willow.
"Mummy absolutely loves these." I say, pointing to the cheese bun pile.
"They're called cheese buns." I tell her and Willow lets out a small smile. I lift her up so that her eyes meet mine.

I bring her close to my face and kiss her tummy and then her nose with a giggle before placing her back on my chest.

The place she loves to go to sleep on.
