Chapter 2

CLICK. The door opens and a small woman with long black hair walks in. You can tell instantly that she is kind as you can see the smile lines that have been engraved onto her face.

"Hello Katniss my names Dr Long" I start to shake I never thought I would be in this situation. I thought that at the age of 21 I would be living on my own with no husband and no children. I would have been happy. Don't get me wrong I love Peeta with all my heart but I never thought it would be like this. In some ways I have to thank the Hunger Games, without it I would never have met Peeta, I would have never have been the Mockingjay and most of all I would never be laying o this uncomfortable bed waiting to see if was pregnant.

"Ok Katniss we are going to do a quick sonogram and take a blood test then you should get the results in less than an hour"

I start to shake so hard Peeta has to hold my arm still so the doctor can take some blood. Why am I so scared? Isn't this what I want? This isn't the time to be asking these questions they can wait till later, now I have to be strong for Peeta as well. He wouldn't say it but he's shaking as well, not for the same reason as me but because e is so excited. All Peeta has ever wanted is a child and now he might be able to.

The doctor asks me to lie down on the bed and lift up my shirt which I do. She puts cold blue liquid on my stomach which sends a picture to the monitor. There it is, on the screen a little circle the size of a bean. There is my baby.

As I walk home I can't stop wondering if I want this baby. Am I really ready to be a Mum? But will I be able to do that to Peeta; can I destroy all his dreams just out of my own selfishness? Yet if I have this baby will I be able to love it? Or will I just look at it in disgust and let it remind me of all pain it has caused? I can tell that if I do keep this baby the next 9 months are going to be hard, but at least I have Peeta to look after me. At least I hope I do.
