(Katniss)

Today I wake up earlier than usual. I've been sleeping in a lot lately. Atleast past 11, but today I'm up before 10. I reach over to Peeta's side. He's an early bird so of course he's not in bed. I get myself freshened up. My hair's in its braid, my teeth are brushed, my face is washed. I change from my nightgown into Peeta's black basketball shorts, that I have to tighten just a bit with the draw string, and one of my own red fitted shirts that shows my stomach too much. I think its pretty obvious I love wearing Peeta's clothes. They're so comfortable and loose. I finally head out of my room and downstairs where I suppose everyone's at, and I'm correct. But instead of finding only 2 of our 3 guests who stayed the night, I find my husband making breakfast. Finn must be sleeping still. Peete comes out from theu living room and gives me a hug around, what he can reach.

"Good Morning, mom!" He shouts.

"Morning, sweetie." I say messing up his hair that I love so much. "What are you doing home?"

"Dad said I could stay home." When he says this his dad puts his hands around my waist and greets me with a kiss on my lips.

"Gross. Don't swallow each other!" Johanna exclaims. I hear Annie whisper to her to stop. Don't swallow each other? It was just a simple kiss. No movement, no tongue, not saliva. Just our lips simply holding against each other for a few seconds.

"So why isn't he in school?" I ask getting back to the conversation.

"It felt wrong that Annie and Johanna came to visit for him but we were caught up in something else that it pulled us away from the others so I thought maybe he'd stay home to spend some time with them." Peeta is too nice. I nod my head to agree. It only makes sense.

"So is Levinia at school?"

"No, she's still upstairs. Let me check if shes awake." I place a hand on his chest before he can go any further.

"You make breakfast. I'll check on her." Peeta takes at the direction I would be heading.

"Are you sure you wanna make the trip?" He asks uncertainly.

"Peeta, I'm 5 months pregnant. Ask me again when I'm 7 months." I peck his cheek before heading up the stairs and down the hall to Levinia's room. I knock lightly on the door first. No response. I open the door and the sight catches me off guard. Not only is it Levinia, but Finn is also sleeping in her bed as well. The blankets aren't pulled up all the way, so I can see that they both still have clothing on. Even though they're still very young to be sleeping together, the view looks nice. It looks romantic and cute. Finn has one arm around her and she's curled up into him. They always like to stay up late with each other when our families are together. They have, in a way, slept together. Like when they both fell asleep watching a movie together on the couch. Peeta just put a blanket around them when he spotted them, late at night. But this doesn't look unexpected. I place a hand on her leg and gently shake her. She moves a little and picks up her head from inside Finn. She notices she's not the only one in her bed. She looks at me apologetically. Maybe this was unexpected? I stop her, just as she opens her mouth to speak.

"You don't have to explain. Just go freshen up for breakfast. It's almost ready-and wake him up, too please?" Lately my hormones have been making me a push over. But if it wasn't for the hormones, I'm sure I would've handled this a little more stricter. But honestly, its not even that big a deal. They were only sleeping. I shut her door behind me and go downstairs. I'm not sure if I should put them on blast and tell, but I think its something I should tell only Peeta. So I'll wait till were alone. Peeta looks at me waiting for an answer as he's serving the plates filled with breakfast. The simple eggs and bacon.
