Hey, hey, hey! Enjoy the new story.
I roll over and smile at my husband. I hold onto him and move closer. "Wake up" I whisper. "No" he replies then smiles. I kiss his cheek. We're twenty years olds now. Little Delenae is three.
Her bronze curls fall down her back, her eyes are large, her lips are pink, her skin is tan, she's beautiful. I mean, really beautiful. She's the girl version of finnick.
Beck turns his head and kisses my lips, "good morning", "so far" I reply and sit up. "Mooommy" I hear Delenae call. I get out of bed and go to my daughter's room. Her walls are green; I have to say that color and purple look really good on her.
I open her door and find her bouncing in her crib as always, "mommy!" she says. "Hey baby!" I say and pick her up. She hugs me tight and I spin around. "Did you sleep well" I ask her. She nods, "yeah". "How did you sleep" she asks me. "I slept nicely. But I need to go to the doctors today" I say. She looks scared, "mommy are you sick, cause if you are they gonna give you a needle!" I smile and sit in the rocking chair with her on my lap.
"I might have a baby". "What kind of baby" she asks. I shrug, "the doctor's gonna tell me. Daddy wants a boy baby". "Why? He's already a boy, right?" she asks. I laugh and nod my head. "If I have a baby, then you'll be a big sister", she smiles. "Okay" she says. "Can I go wake up daddy" she asks. "Go ahead, incase he went back to sleep" I say and put her down.
She runs to the door and down the hallway to beck and my room. She climbs onto the bed and prepares to jump on him when suddenly he jumps up and grabs her. She screams and he rolls over and over until they fall off of the bed. "She's okay" beck says before I have a heart attack.
I sigh and walk over. "c'mon, breakfast" I say taking Delenae's hand. "Breakfast" she repeats and takes becks hand. We walk to the kitchen. Bullet, who sleeps under the living rooms coffee table follows us in. beck, pours her food as I prepare breakfast.
After we eat I turn the cartoons on for my child then go and get dressed. Beck walks in and wraps his arms around me. "Where are you going babe" he asks. "the doctors" I say. "Why" he asks. "Well you want a boy don't you" I ask. He smiles and leans his head on my shoulder, "I don't care what gender it is, I just want another baby" he whispers. "I want another one too". I turn around and kiss him.
He's been mentioning wanting a boy for about a year now, so I figured, why not. Beck prefers his hair short now, he says his usual shoulder length hairstyle is too young. I like to grow my hair out. I have a new baby sister, only a year old with blonde hair and blue eyes. Mom said that she reminded her of my late aunt, Primrose. My sister's name is Blanche.
Hunter and Archer are teenagers, 16 and 15 years old. The last time I saw them was when Blanche was born. They kept making fun of each other; Hunter kept choking Archer with his arm and calling him 'little Archey'. They're both well built, even though every time I see them they're on the couch. But of course hunter is healthy because he hunts, and archer bakes with dad so…
Beck POV
After Celine leaves Delenae and I watch cartoons. It's Saturday so she doesn't have preschool. "Daddy, can we go play at the beach" she asks me. She loves the beach, she collects every single seashell she finds, she plays in the water, she does everything you would expect. Whenever we're there she begs us to let her stay and watch the sunset.
"Yeah we can, but lets wait until mommy gets back.", "is she gonna have a baby daddy" she asks me. "Maybe" I reply. "How does she have a baby" she asks. "It grows in her stomach, then comes out" I reply. "How did the baby get in her stomach, she ate it!?" she asks me. I laugh, that's what I used to think. "No she didn't eat the baby. When you get older you'll understand" I say.
Just then bullet jumps onto the couch and sniffs her. She just had a few sausages. She licks her cheeks. Delenae laughs and then runs off to go play with the dog. I get the chance to change the channel.
Celine comes home about an hour later smiling. "Yes or no" I say walking over to her. "Yes! A boy! I'm a month in and I'm supposed to have him sometime in January" she squeals and throws her arms around me. A new baby! "We have to tell everyone" I say holding her by her waist. "I know, but first we have to tell Delenae" she says and takes my hand. We find her running through the hallways with the dog. "Ellen, guess what" I say. "What" she says. "Mommy's having a baby.", "really!" she says hopping up and down. "Yup, a baby boy. You're going to have a little brother"
"Yay!" she says clapping. The dogs comes back in, "bullet, mommy's gonna have a baby!" she says Patting her head. Celine smiles at me and says, "C'mon, lets go make those phone calls." She says and brings us into the room.
We call her parents, Gale, Aunt Johanna, Haymitch, everyone. I go next door and tell my mother. Everyone was happy and excited, congratulating us. Afterwards we dress in our bathing suits.
I wear my usual blue trunks. Celine in her green bikini that makes me drool, with a little black dress over top. Then she puts Delenae in her polka dotted pink one piece bathing suit and puts her hair back in a ponytail. She packs a bag of sunscreen, towels, water and so on. I take the bag from her, and we take Delenae and bullet with us to the car. She straps her in her car seat in the back then we drive off to the beach.
Celine POV
"Beach! Beach! Beach!" Delenae chants on our way there. It's adorable. When we get there, the beach is empty.
I get out of the car and un-strap Delenae and carry her in my arms. The dog runs to the water and the three of us walk through the sand and set up our towels I set her down on a towel and apply sun screen to her delicate skin. "Hurry, hurry mommy" she says. I laugh and finish up. She gets up and runs off.
Beck comes and sits beside me, grabs the sun block and applies it to my skin as an excuse to touch me. I lean back with my head on his shoulder. "Let's stay until after sunset" I say. He rubs down my arms and legs, "alright, you packed lunch right" he says. "Of course, she won't want to leave until she falls asleep" I joke and get up. He grabs me and pulls me back. I fall into his lap laughing. "Don't leave me" he smiles kissing my neck. I giggle and say, "Well one of us needs to watch Delenae, plus I want to go play in the water". "Babe that's what the bathtub is for". I laugh at that and get back up.
I jog off to the water and play with my daughter and the dog. We splash around for hours; we make sandcastles, and then stop for lunch at two. I packed a few treats for the dog as well. "Daddy your eyes are red" Delenae points out. "Yeah, the salt water hurts. Don't drink that stuff okay" he says to her. She nods then takes another bite of her sandwich
Afterwards we head back to the water. The rest of the day is spent calmly in the sand. By the time the sun sets Delenae is asleep on her towel with the dog lying next to her. Beck and I are on our towel watching the glorious sunset. I sit between his legs, with his arms wrapped around me. Its quiet moments like these that I especially enjoy about my new life. Spending time with beck is always amazing but it doesn't compare to the two of us spending time with our child.
I can't wait to have this new one. Two children. Just another child to love, another to take care of, and spoil rotten. "I can't wait to have this baby" I whisper. Beck smiles and kisses my cheek, then rubs my stomach. "Yeah, I think we're ready for another, and plus, there's no turning back now" he says.
The sun goes below the horizon and the sky gets dark. We get up and pack our stuff. I pick up Delenae and order the dog to the car. I strap her up. We get in the car and drive home. I take her to her room and tuck her into bed then kiss her cheek. I go to beck and my room and climb into bed. Minutes later he comes in and gets in with me. He wraps his arms around me and just as every day, kisses me goodnight.
