Everlark: POST Victory Tour.

Katniss's Prov:

Peeta and I got ready, and met Haymitch outside, and we were escorted to the town square. Effie and the Mayor made their remarks.

"Ladies first." Effie said, mouthing a sorry to me as she drew the slip with my name. "The Female tribute from District 12, Katniss Mellark." I walked and stood by her. I didn't meet anyone's gaze. She then announced it was for the men, and went to pick up a slip. Once she returned she said "The male tribute from District 12, Peeta Mellark."

Haymitch said "I volunteer as Tribute." I looked to Haymitch who stood next to Effie. "Our tributes from District 12, Haymitch Abernathy and Katniss Mellark."

Once we got on the Train Peeta said "I was supposed to go in with her!" I said "Peeta, stop. THink about it. Haymitch can protect and get me out of there, safely. You don't even have to fake it."

Peeta said "If anything happens to her or our baby..." Haymitch said "What baby?"

I said "I'm pregnant..." Peeta took me into his arms. "SSh Kitten." I smiled at the nickname, as Haymitch said "I swear, I'll protect both with my life." Peeta looked to me, kissing my head before saying "You Better."

"Peeta, let me go." I moaned darting to the nearest bathroom, and started puking my guts out. "That's what your gonna be dealing with in the Arena Haymitch." I heard Peeta, say.

"I know, But it's whats best to ensure that the baby doesn't grow up without a father." I heard Haymitch answer.

I got up, rinsed my mouth out and exited the bathroom. "How you feeling honey?" Peeta asked, wrapping an arm around my waist.

I shook my head and said "Like Crap, honestly." Peeta chuckled soft, and said "You look beautiful." Haymitch said "Actually, she looks like Crap." I frowned, walking over to him and slapping him. "I just threw up every bit of food and liquid in my system." Effie said "Katniss!"

I looked to her before walking off to mine and Peeta's compartment, and curled up on the bed, letting my tears flow heavily.

"Katniss. Honey?" I heard a male voice come into the room. I looked up with my tear filled eyes, and saw what looked to be my husband. "Baby don't cry." He said sitting beside me, placing a hand on my cheek and wiped my tears with his thumb. "but Peeta..."

"No. Don't say it. Haymitch's just drunk. You know how he is. As far as Effie knows your just being slightly hormonal. She didn't press for another answer. Just assumed it was to well... You know. Your monthly cycle."

I couldn't help but blush. "So Effie doesn't know about, Baby Mellark?" I asked. Peeta shook his head, and said "Right. Hey Kat, Look at me."

I looked up to him as he said "I'm not gonna fail you, or our baby. I'm gonna get you out of that arena asap. Just promise me one thing." I said "What?" "Do whatever Haymitch says. If not for me, for the baby." Peeta responded.

I said "Okay... I promise... I want him out of the arena, Back with us." Peeta said "He will, I promise. I'm not losing you or him."

We went to dinner, at which Effie started to give me a lecture about what happened earlier. Haymitch said "Effie, it's fine. I deserved it." I smiled at him, Peeta's hand secured mine.

A few days later we arrived in the Capital, where both Haymitch and I were whisked away to the remake center. Peeta was gonna talk to Cinna. After We were all ready for the tribute parade, I went down before everyone else. I stroked the horses main.

"Katniss." I heard, causing me to look up. I looked in the direction, seeing Peeta with him walking my way. His eyes were upset. "Katniss, I want to talk to you before you get on." I excused myself and walked over to Peeta. "Look I know your upset with me, Peeta. I walked off before I said anything But Hey, I needed to get out of that room. It was so stuffy and I was getting a headache."

Peeta sighed, pulling me to his chest. "I was worried, Haymitch came over saying he couldn't find you anywhere! I don't care what happened to make you walk off, I just want you to tell one of us. I don't care if it's me, Haymitch, Cinna, Effie, or even Portia if she's around. Just tell someone before you go walking off."

I said "I'll remember that, Peeta... I'm sorry for worrying you."

'Tributes mount up. Tributes Mount up.'

"Here let me help you." Peeta said, helping me up into the carriage. Haymitch was already mounted, and grabbed my hand to help Peeta.

About halfway down Haymitch hit a button, and our costumes lit up with the synthetic fire from last year. I mumble to Haymitch saying 'this better not harm the baby.' Haymitch, whispered "that Boy of yours already asked close to a hundred times. It's absolutely safe for the baby."

After the parade, we went up to our floor. I didn't even wait, before I ran to mine and Peeta's room and into the bathroom. "I hate seeing her so sick Haymitch... What if it's like this in the Arena?! I can't send her in there..." I heard Peeta say before I vomited into the toilet.

"You know She has to. She's the only female victor from District 12." Haymitch responded. "I know..." Peeta's voiced sighed.

"I'm gonna get the doc. See if he can give her something to ease it till the end of the games. We'll have to sneak it in, but we'll get it." Haymitch said before leaving. I coughed up some blood, which resulted in me yelling Peeta's name, in fear. "Katniss, What's wrong?"

He knelt beside me looking for any signs of injuries. "What happened?" Peeta asked, calming down seeing no visible signs of injuries. I didn't answer, my body racked with sobs.

Peeta said "Katniss, please. help me figure out what happened, so I can help you. I can't help you unless I know what's wrong." I didn't trust my voice, so I pointed to the toilet bowl as I curled up as if I was a small frightened child on his lap.

Peeta's Prov:

I looked and saw why she was terrified. I soothed her, best I could before starting a bath for her. "It's Gonna be OKay Kitten. I promise." I said. She managed to undress and climb in the tub by herself. "Just shout if you need me. I'm gonna be in our room."

She nodded as I stepped back into our room, leaving the door open a crack. "Peeta, the doctor said he'll be in 20 minutes." Haymitch said entering. "Thanks. It'll give her enough time to get comfortable."

"Where is she now?" Haymitch asked. I just pointed to the door that lead to the bathroom. "I thought a bath might help soothe her. She coughed up some blood... But hey, can you go watch for the doc for me?" Haymitch nodded and left.

I placed a pair of clean pajamas for Kat on the counter before I noticed she was falling asleep. "Kat." I helped her get dressed and into bed, where she fell asleep.

"Peeta, the docs here." Haymitch said, as they entered. "Next time, Knock." I said to Haymitch, before turning to the doc. "Doc. Peeta Mellark. That's my wife, Katniss."

THe doc shook my hand and said "Pleasure. You can call me Dr. James. Now can you shed some light on your wifes Past and current health, so I can figure out how best to help or treat her?"

I said "She's always been healthy. But we discovered she was pregnant, and the morning sickness has been so bad, worse than what I heard others say. I know not all pregnancies are the same, like no two women are the same, but it's been worrying me. Just a while ago she coughed up some blood. She screamed, my name."

Dr. James said "Has she been able to keep anything down? Either food or liquids? Is she a tribute or Mentor?"

I wasn't even sure if I could remember my own name. I was too worried. "Not really, no. Last thing she was able to keep down, was some water but nothing since... Tribute..."

Dr. James said "Alright, Well I wanna do an ultrasound make sure the baby is alright then I'll give her some medicines to help ease the nausea. Has she been sleeping?"

I said "She's been having nightmares, which wake her up." "I'll give her something to help her sleep as well." Dr. James responded, as he got ready to do an ultrasound.

"No! Don't touch me! NO! PEETA!" I looked to my wife, before whispering for her to relax. She relaxed and remained asleep. Dr. James did the ultrasound, before looking to me.

"What is it?" I asked. "the baby is fine, Mr. Mellark. Calm down. Just underweight, for both mom and baby."

I looked to Kat, before noticing the doctor handing me something. "Have her take this before dinner, then have her eat. I'll bring up some more meds, and sleep meds for her later. Is there anyone I could give them to, incase you're not able to receive them?"

"Haymitch Abernathy. Her fellow tribute. Give them both to him." I responded automatically. The doc nodded and left. I woke Katniss, seeing it was close to dinner. "Peeta, stop... I'm so tired..." She complained. "I'm sorry, but it's dinner time. Here I want you to take this first."

She took it quietly, before sitting up. I went to her side, helping her up. She leaned into my arms, as we walked. We ate dinner, with Haymitch and Effie crying through most of it.

"We gonna look at the reaping tapes?" I heard Kat's voice ask. Haymitch nodded and said "After dinner." I looked to Kat, and said "Are you sure you want to watch the tapes? You could go to our room, and sleep."

Katniss's prov

"No I want to." I responded. "One run to the bathroom and it's our bedroom for you. Deal?" Peeta said, which caused Effie and Haymitch to watch even closer. I nodded.

Over the next few days, we trained and made some allies. I came up to the apartment, on the afternoon after our private session. "Peeta?" I called. Peeta looked up and said "Hey what happened?"

"I hung Seneca Crain..." Peeta smirked and said "Good job." Later we were watching the scores. I wasn't paying attention, I laid on Peeta's chest.

"From District 12, Haymitch Abernathy with a score of 11." I looked to Haymitch nodding, I wonder what he did.

"And Finally from District 12, Katniss Mellark., with a score of..." I ducked my head. "12." I raised my head, my eyes darting from Peeta, to Haymitch. It was a first. No one had gotten a 12.

We went to bed, Tomorrow will be the interviews. I was scared.
