Chapter Sixty Six

PEETA'S POV

If anything, being back home is the best medicine someone could give me. My mind is clear, I'm happy, carefree even; well I do worry about Katniss but I always do I guess. "Peeta?" I look up from writing in my journal the doctor gave me and smile.

"Yeah?" She puts her hand on her back and winces a little. "I hate asking you this but do you think you can help me get into a warm bath to try to soothe my back pain?" I stand quickly. "Yeah of course." I wrap my arm around her waist and sit her down on our bed. "Let me draw your bath, try to get undressed and then I'll help you in." She nods slowly and I peck her lips, the first time sense I've been back and I hear her sigh against my lips.

I smile a little and walk into the bathroom. I turn on the water and full up the bath, even putting in bubbles. I open the bathroom door and see Katniss, scars all over her, grey eyes wandering the room, her scarred arms crossed over her now enlarged breasts. "Your baths ready honey." She nods and stands, walking towards me. I take her arm and lead her into the restroom and then proceed to lowering her into the warm bath.

She sighs as she sits in the porcelain tub. "Thank you." She kisses my palm gently. "I love you." I smile, putting my hands in my pockets. "You're welcome." I keep smiling at her as I try walking away but I run straight into the wall, making her laugh. I blush, looking down at the ground and walk out. "Hey where are you going?" I turn and see Katniss smiling.

"Talk to me, Jesus Peeta's it's not like you haven't seen me naked." I chuckle. "I just wanted to give you some privacy." She takes my hand in her scarred one. "I've had enough privacy." She giggles. She puts her free hand on her stomach. "I think it's going to be another girl." I say softly. She raises an eyebrow. "You really think so?" I nod. "Yeah I really do." She shrugs. "I dunno really, but we gotta think about the baby's room." I nod and smile.

"What were you thinking?" "Doing a color scheme that would be for both sexes." "The doctor didn't tell you if it was going to be a boy or a girl?" She shakes her head. "Because I want it to be a surprise." She looks up at the ceiling. "I don't get many surprises anymore." After I get her out of the bath I braid her hair for her as she wears one of my shirts and she clears her throat.

"You know, I never thought I would get you back this time Peeta." I stay quiet. "I felt like I did when I lost Prim, living a nightmare with no relief in waking." "Why?" I ask. She puts her face in her hands. "Because you're the only thing I have left." I move her so she lays on her back and I put my lips to hers. The kiss deepens, making me get butterflies in my stomach and I rest my hand on her pregnant belly as I then gently bite her lip and she grins laughing against the kiss.

Then as I break away, resting t forehead against hers grinning with her I feel a thump against my hand. My eyes go wide and I look up at Katniss in disbelief. "Did it just?-" She nods, tears brimming in her eyes. "That was the baby's first kick Peeta." I feel tears beginning to roll down my cheeks. I lift the shirt she's wearing and kiss her right skin gently, then continue to pepper kisses on her belly, feeling more kicks.

I laugh and cry at the same time and wrap my arms around Katniss's waist and rest my head on her belly, sniffling. "We're going to do this Katniss together, you and me, no more being separated, if you go somewhere I'm going with you, when you have the baby I'll have it with you." I kiss her once again not wanting it to end until I hear a knock on the door. I look down at Katniss and she smiles, kissing my lips once again and then turns on her side with a sigh.

"Go get the door, and then make me cheesy buns before you pick up Willow." I nod and walk downstairs. I open the front door and see a District Thirteen soldier, a bag slung over his shoulder with papers in his other hand. "Uh is this where Mrs. Mellark lives?" I nod. "Is there a problem?" "Hi my name is Hugo Corex and I work with Plutarch and I need to talk with Mrs. Mellark privately over the upset out of panem... We need to set up boarder patrol and-"

"Uh your name is again?" The man smiles, his green eyes sparkling. "Hugo Corex Mr. Mellark." My eyes go wide as I see the man from my nightmares, the one who took Katniss from me, the one who killed her, was the dream a foreshadowing? Of what is to come?
