Hey, so this is my first fanfic/story so…please review, but go easy on me! *DISCLAIMER* I own nothing hunger games related all characters belong to Suzanne Collins!
"No!" I said for the thousandth time that day. He looks defeated, maybe he'll give up…ha ha I wish! Peeta has been begging me to get pregnant for 15 years, and I have been telling him no for 15 years. He's a persistent pain in the butt, but I love him more than anything. He was the only thing I had left in the world. I lost my father when I was 11, my mother shut down after that, and I lost my sister Prim and my best friend Gale to the war. She died…and him…well we just gave up on trying to repair what was left of our friendship.
"Katniss I don't know why you won't budge on this!" he yells. "The war is over, the games are done, forever, the law says so! We have more than enough money to support a child; we'll never go hungry again! And most importantly, I love you. I love you more than anything in this world and I want this for us."
"Peeta I do not want children. I have never wanted children. I'm sorry that upsets you, but I am just not cut out to be a mother! Maybe you should have thought about this before you married me!" I scream back "But hey, if you want out fine go find yourself a girl who wants children see if I care!" His face hardens and I know I've said the wrong thing.
"Never say that again, don't even think it. I would never ever leave you." He says calmly "I love you, and I'm not going anywhere. No matter how much I want children and a family. I'd give all that up, I would rather have you."
"I love you too, but every time you ask me about having a baby I feel terrible. I feel like I'm keeping you from having the life you want."
"As long as I have you, I don't need anything else, would I like children, yes, but I can live without them as long as I have you." There he goes again, breaking my heart and making me feel wonderful all at once, he always does this. As I stand there looking at him I can't help but imagine what he'd be like as a father. So sweet and loving, the best kind of father any kid could have…I can't help the words that come out of my mouth next.
"Okay." I say looking him in the eye. He looks at me questioningly.
"Okay what?"
"Okay let's do it, let's have a baby." He seems taken aback, almost as if he didn't hear me. "Peeta, did you hear me?"
"Yeah I just don't know what to make of it." He answers. "You mean it Kat? You really want to have a baby?"
"No." I say. I don't just want to have a baby, Peeta. I want to have your baby because I know that no matter how I feel about the kid, you are going to be the best father in the world." I reach over and turn off the stove where he'd been making dinner, then take his hand and lead him upstairs, pulling him towards our bedroom. Closing the door behind me I turn and take a deep breath, I haven't been this nervous in a long time. "Peeta Mellark," I say moving closer to him. "Put a baby in my belly." I whisper pressing my lips against his ear.
Okay so I know it's really short, but chapter 2 is really long & I wanted this one to kind of set the stage for the rest of the story. Again please review, but go easy on me1
