Hello! This is a Christmas-style story; I am not saying it's any good. Probably not dramatic enough for this series. I wanted to do something lighthearted and fun for the holiday season though! (And in this story, katniss agreed to have children at a much earlier time… In this she is 27)

Disclaimer: If I owned THG would I be writing on here? No I would not.

"Momma, Momma, Momma!" I heard the high-pitched squeal of my five year old daughter, Lily.

"It's Christmastime Momma! Get-up! Get-up!"

I rolled to my side and saw her big blue eyes staring directly at me, begging me to get out of bed. "Oh Lily-Girl, wake-up your da-" I stopped short realizing that Peeta was not next to me, and must be already awake.

"Daddy is already awake! He told me to wake you up, and I did… so I get a cookie!"

Lily giggled through her sentence. So Peeta bribed her with a cookie? Lovely.

After a few more moments of my daughters pleading, I dragged myself from the bed and went to check on my baby before going downstairs.

Sure enough my baby was bouncing up and down in this crib calling for me. His one year old body so chubby and little, he reached his arms out to me losing his balance in the crib and falling backwards. I can't help but giggle as I go to retrieve him.

"Hello Arion, how are you doing my darling?" He smiled and replied with his favorite word "Mama."

I never thought I would have that name, nor did I want to. But now that I do, I love my babies more than the world knows. Lily Primrose, when she was first born 5 years ago I couldn't show I loved her. I slowly grew to be more open with expressing that to her and everyone else. When she was 5 months old, she would point at me and go "mmmmmmmmm" She couldn't say Momma, But I understood her intention. I knew Peeta was behind it, but it made me cry anyway. Before I knew it she was 4 years old and begging for a baby brother. That was all she wanted… Peeta wanted her to have a brother too. I eventually gave in. I ended up with my son Arion Rue Mellark. And now were here, on Christmas.

As I reached the bottom of the staircase what I saw sent me into shock. The grip on my son tightened, as the same time he struggled to get down. I placed him gently on the ground and he took off toward the tree. The tree. Peeta went a little overboard this Christmas seeing how both Lily and Arion would be able to enjoy it this year. I looked at the overwhelming amount of gifts under the tree and Peeta gave me a guilty look. Lily took off running into a large stack of boxes and started to rip into them. Arion couldn't get his hands through the paper, so Lily reached to help him.

Peeta walked over to me and wrapped his arms around my waist; I leaned upward to give him a kiss quickly, but lovingly. I love him more than the world will ever know, he'd do anything to protect me and I'd do anything to protect him. He loves our children to pieces, Lily is his princess. She goes to the bakery with him every day after she gets home from kindergarten. Arion is attached to my side all day, literally. He never leaves me. When Lily was born, Peeta just was in pure amazement. When Arion was born Lily was excited… but she became jealous, so Peeta took her everywhere from then on.

My thoughts were interrupted when my door swung open.

Haymitch walked through my door noisily slamming into things, but I KNOW he isn't drunk. He knows better than to be drunk around my kids… Then I see him. He's dressed in a red, fur-trimmed suit with a white beard. He really must love my kids.

I look over at my husband to see him about dying of laughter. I walk over to him and he leans over and whispers in my ear "I told him if he didn't do this you'd kill all his geese." At this point I had to start laughing as well, receiving a glare from Haymitch.

"I like your kids, alright Sweetheart?" He said gruffly, leaning over to grab Arion.

Arion let out a shrill shriek and starts staring directly at Hay Mitch's eyes. My one year old reached up and ripped off Haymitch's fake beard and started laughing screaming " Haymish!"

"Alright Arion, It's me. Common Kid, ruin Christmas for yourself?"

"He'll never remember this, come here baby?" Peeta said reaching his arms out to our son. Arion grabs onto Peeta and puts his head on his shoulder.

Changing the subject to stop our laughing fits I ask, "How's Effie doing?" Oh yes… you heard correctly Haymitch and Effie. I don't know how or when it happened; only that it did. From what I understand they are perfectly happy.

"She's Effie. She woke up this morning telling me its going to be a "Big, Big Day!" I thought I was going to lose my hearing at her planning today. She is planning to bring a whole district here later." Haymitch said smirking at the last part.

"Wait what are you talking about! Who said anything about later?" I said worried.

Peeta very suspiciously jumped, "Well Haymitch, you must be going now… see you later!" He pushed him out the door and leaned on it once he shut it.

I looked at him, at my kids, then at Haymitch walking away.

"What is going on later, Peeta?"

So… I may continue, maybe not. Review with your thoughts! Probably will add one more about later on Christmas! If I can I will… but Reviews will tell me If I should or not!
