3 months later....
"Soo Katniss, whatcha gettin Peeta for his 25th birthday huh?" Johanna says smugly. "I have something in the works" I say nonchalantly in return. "Anyway, what are you gonna get him?" I ask. "No clue, maybe some frosting? Or new paints?" She says shrugging. We walk into Peeta's new bakery and I'm suddenly bombarded with twins. "Aunt Katniss! Aunt Katniss!" The adorable twin 5 year olds Tommy and Will say hugging my legs. "Well hello to you too" I say laughing at the two short brown haired kids. I see Peeta walking out of the kitchen with a very confused Thom. "I don't know where they cou- there you are!" Thom says once he sees his sons. I pick up Will and Tommy runs to his dad. "Dad! Look! Aunt Katniss is here!" Tommy says happily. "I see that, she didn't give you any candy did you?" He says crouching down to Tommy's level. Tommy shakes his head. "Good, then she would've had to share some with me!" Thom says laughing. "Even if I did, you wouldn't get any" I say. "Which is why you won't" I say bringing out a bag of peppermints. "That's not fair" he pouts. "Oh but it is" I say giving Will one and eat another for myself. I look over to Peeta who's leaning on the counter and smile at him. He smiles and waves back. I walk over to him and kiss his cheek from the opposite side of the counter. "Ewww" Will says. "Oh ya? What if I do it to you!" Peeta says trying to kiss the boy's cheek while Will dodges and wiggles in my arms. As soon as Peeta manages to kiss Will's cheek, Will immediately trys to rub it off. Peeta laughs and ruffels Will's brown hair. "Where's Bristle?" I ask Thom. "She's out looking for baby clothes for the next little guy or gal, so I'm captain dad today" he says saluting. I roll my eyes along with Tommy in Thom's arms. The shy and the sassy, adorable. "You guys are coming to Peeta's birthday tonight right?" I say. "Of course! How can I miss my beat friend's birthday! Happy birthday by the way, thank you Katniss for reminding me" Thom loudly whispers the end to me to which Peeta rolls his eyes.
That night....
"Ok guys, time for presents!" Gale says happily holding his baby boy with Madge right by his side. Peeta laughs and sits in front of the fire on the floor opening Gale and Madge's first. "Yes! New brushes! Thank you so much guys!" He says happily. Next Tommy and Will give their present. "Aw thank you! I love it! Oh! I have something for you guys too" he says then gets up and pins their drawings on the refrigerator. He sits back down with two bags of cookies in each hand and gives them it. "Double chocolate!" Tommy says happily. "Sugar with sprinkles!" Will says practically tackling Peeta into a hug. "Thank you uncle Peeta!" They say at the same time and hug him then start eating their cookies. "Oo mine next!" Johanna says. She hands him a small box. "Although you might want to save it for later" she says wiggling her eyebrows then looks at me and I glare back. "Should I be worried? Who am I kidding its Johanna of course I should be" he says laughing and puts it down next to him. He opens Haymich's next. "Thank you Haymich!" He says ecstatically while holding the new sketch pad and canvas. Haymich mumbles something about needing more liquor, both Peeta and I roll our eyes. Thom hands him his and Bristles' present. "Thank you so much!" Peeta says then sets the new paints down and gives Thom a 'bro' hug, Gale going soon after. Dorks. I roll my eyes at them when they break apart. "Ok! Your the last one" Johanna says excitedly. "Ok ok, hold on" I say putting my hands up then go to the office and get his present. I hand it to him and sit down next to him. He slowly opens the box, everyone eagerly waiting. He slowly pulls out a little orange onesie. I hear Madge gasp. He looks at me confused and I nod towards the box. He continues. He pulls out an orange bib that says 'Daddy's baker'. I see his eyebrows scrunch together. He finally takes out a small black and white picture. I hear his breath hitch in his throat finally getting it. He looks at me, his eyes telling me everything. "Kat-k.. Y-your preg-...?" He whispers unable to finish because of shock. I nod my head and give him a shy smile. Suddenly he wraps his arms around me and pulls me close to him. He holds me tight, a little too tight. "Katniss" he whispers. I feel warm droplets on my shoulder. "I'm going to be a Dad... You're going to be a Mom... You're going to be so good, you already are... I love you, so so soo soo so much. I love you. I love you. Thank you so much. This is the best present I've ever gotten. Thank you. So so so so much. I love you... I'm going to a dad. We're going to be parents..." He whispers quietly so no one can hear him but me. "Well what'd she get you?" Johanna says impatiently. Peeta breaks away then kisses me like he never has before. So much love, thankfulness, adoration, and happiness. We break away and he looks in my eyes with the biggest smile known to man. "I'm going to dad" he says still looking at me. I smile along with him as the house explodes with gasps and cheers. I can also see Haymich hand Johanna some money and her taking it happily.
Later after everyone went home, or passed out on the couch from being too drunk (*cough* Haymich *cough*), Peeta and I crawl into bed. "So how long are you?" Peeta asks carefully. "4 mounths, I've known for about 3." "Why'd you wait so long to tell me?" He says. "I wanted to make sure that I was ok with it, I knew you were but I wasn't yet. So by the time I knew I was ok with it, it was already almost your birthday so I decided to surprise you" I say snuggling up to his warm bare chest. He wraps an arm around my waist. "And that you did" he says kissing my forehead. "So did you plan it or was a surprise like 'Bam! Hey you're pregnant!'?" He says. I laugh at his dorky-ness. "Well I finally knew that I wanted a kid, so I stopped taking the pill and you did the rest" I say closing my eyes and snuggle closer. "Why didn't you tell me?" He asks. "Because I didn't want you to be crushed if it didn't work out" I say sadly. He kisses the top of my hair. "And thankfully I did work out. Thank you, I love you, so so sooo much" he says lovingly. "I love you too" I say smiling. "This, us, now, is real, real or not real?" He asks quietly, starting the old game again. "Real." I say. I can practically feel his smile radiating from him. "Soo if its a boy can we name it some sort of bread?"
