PS I don't own the Hunger Games...

A month later Katniss sat on her sofa, in a sweater.

It was the middle of July.

Unlike most pregnant girls, she was cold. In the heat of the balmy city she wanted to wear long sleeves. But the city was gripped in the midst of a heat wave. Peeta only allowed her lightweight clothing, with the condition she stay in air-conditioning and called him on his phone should she feel uncomfortable. Her doctor wanted her to stay off her feet, and was forced to go on maternity leave early.

Katniss was being cautious but she was silently going crazy. She missed the summer trip to the woods in up state New York. Her belly had gotten bigger and it was uncomfortable to sit in a car for all that time. She looked at the time, it was near eleven o'clock at night and her husband was still not home.

Tonight Peeta as at all time high with worry. He had to leave her alone to have dinner with his family to let them know of his plans. Katniss knew his father and even his brothers would be excited, but his mother was a witch. He was nervous. Peeta was opening up another bakery and she could decide to nix it. His phone buzzed she looked at his phone.

"Peeta wants to make sure you're okay Brainless."

Katniss shook her head and typed, "I'm okay Jo."

"Good keep the bun in the oven."

":0) The bun is happy, I fed the baby cheese buns and hot coco."

";-) Say, speaking of cute hidden things, how are the freckles under that left but cheek?"

Katniss laughed. "Jo, I should have never taken those pictures."

"Please you as well as I do Peeta loved them."

"JO they're becoming a pain, Prim found out about them."

"LMAO!"

"It's not funny!" Katniss spoke out loud as she typed.

"Yes it is, that night you were jumpier than a turkey on Thanksgiving Eve. We had to ply you with hard liquor to give you courage."

"Don't remind me, I woke up with the worst head ache in my life what was that stuff anyways?"

"White Liquor, best moonshine ever, got it in North Carolina at a truck stop."

"It figures. What are you guys going to do tonight?"

"We're going to Netflix & Chill."

Katniss had always heard that saying and assumed it was watching a movie. "What movie are you guys going to see or are you renting?"

"OMG, you don't know what it means!"

Katniss read the first message and muttered to herself "Of course it means to watch a movie"

Then came another message, that Katniss began to innocently read out loud, "Netflix & Chill means to have SEX."

"Ugh gross Jo," Katniss shook her head looking like a child that was given medicine. She texted back. "What the hell Jo, I don't need t know about your love life!"

"No but I need to know about yours, tell me how do you and lover boy do it with your bump in the way?"

"Goodnight JO!"

"I'm serious do you guys do it backwards, doggie, do you sit on a chair?"

Katniss fingers pounded the face of the phone as she typed. "GOOD NIGHT JO!"

"Okay, okay, no need to yell. Seriously though if you need anything let me know?"

"Will Do."

"Goodnight brainless."

She settled back, onto the sofa and pulled her blanket over her lap.

Once more the phone buzzed.

"Hey sister Peeta asked me to check up on you."

"I'm fine," Katniss typed after a few minutes the phone buzzed again. She frowned and saw it was her sister once more.

"I heard someone saw you in Brooklyn."

Katniss nearly dropped the phone. Her fingers furiously typed. "PRIM! Who told you?"

"LOL, I'll never tell! ;)"

"Primrose Everdeen you stop that this instant."

"Ha NOPE Sister you're famous, at least in Brooklyn. Can I tell you how mad Peeta was?"

"I was with him, that's how I ended up with his phone."

"Heheheh I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall. Peeta's mister straight and narrow, you're the only thing he's ever done that his mother has not approved of. To see him upset well that's something."

Katniss wondered why everyone thought Peeta was week. There was an inner strength about him that she saw and often depended on, when things were out of control.

"Listen got to go, Peeta's due at any moment."

"Alright but let me know if you need anything. By the way I kind of told Vic about the pictures. Love you bye!"

Katniss clapped her hand against her mouth out of shock. She typed in her sisters name, various times but she did not reply. "Darn you Prim!"

Putting the phone down she grabbed a cheese bun and tore into it. It didn't sit well with her. Katniss wiggled her way off the couch to stand up and paced her hand rubbed her stomach. Those pictures were supposed to be private but it looked like the whole world knew about them.

Swallowing she forced herself to calm down the doctor told her no excitement. When she managed to relax she was able to process things different. She rationalized her sister wouldn't allow Vic to say anything about those pictures. Sighing she caught the whiff of the hot coco and she groaned. She poured herself the last of the chocolate drink as she dunked a piece of a cheese bun in it. She thought of her husband and how he shared his cheese bun.

It made her nostalgic and she went to the bookcase and pulled out her photo albums as she looked at all of the food he left her.

Peeta made she had cold water at hand, fresh lemonade, cheese buns, hot coco and a chicken pot pie. Full and content she pulled out the album, and shifted on the sofa. She was humming to herself looking at her album. She gently fingered the picture of her and Peeta with Miss Carrie standing in front of the infamous Louie the Fish.

She recalled how beautiful Peeta was as a boy. He had a round face, a cubby little body and blond curly hair. His eyes were still blue and she wished her baby would have eyes like his. Not the boring gray eyes she had.

Yawning she fell asleep. In her dream she found herself in Miss Carrie's kindergarten's class.

"Katniss it's your turn to feed Louie." Miss Carrie announced.

Katniss walked up to the bowl and taking the food she felt bad. Her family was poor and often times they went to sleep hungry, it was because of her uncle Haymitch that she attended the private school. Taking the container of fish food she sprinkled in the food but she noticed Louie was so hungry.

"CATO, Give Marvel's pencil back," Miss Carrie walked away.

Katniss fed Louie some more quickly filling up the top of the bowl. Nervously she put down the food. "Don't tell anyone."

She ran to her chair where her classmates sheared a table and sat down thinking she had done a good thing. The new boy Peeta was looking at her. Katniss could not look at the cherubic faced boy with the curly blond hair. She looked down and began to color, hoping no one else saw her.

But that afternoon Louie died. Cato was the one who shouted out that Louie looked funny.

Katniss knew it was her fault.

"Miss Carrie!" Glimmer Fowler called out.

Katniss knew Glimmer would tell. She and Glimmer did not get along per say. Glimmer was a blond girl with a pleasant face but was mean to Katniss often pushing her out of play and never sharing her crayons.

"Miss Carrie Katniss did it she gave Louie too much food to eat." Glimmer Fowler raised her hand in the air and with the other sharply pointed at Katniss.

"Katniss," Miss Carrie called.

Miss Carrie was a fair teacher, though strict.

Scared she ran and hid under the table she sat at, she heard the kids in her class laughing at her. Pitifully large unwanted tears fell from her face.

"She's not nice, a horrid fish killer." Glimmer shouted.

Katniss wrapped her hands over her head. She closed her eyes tightly. Then she felt it, a small hand on the small of her back.

"You okay?"

His small voice penetrated through her tears. She glanced up to see Peeta sitting next to him. She hiccupped as she looked into his bright kind blue eyes. In a small voice she said, "I killed Louie, I gave him too much to eat."

"No you gave him food because he was still hungry. Maybe Louie was old." He handed her a tissue from his pocket.

She blew her nose. "You think?"

"Come we'll tell the teacher together."

"Together?" Katniss whispered.

"Together," Peeta held out his small pudgy hand to her and she put her smaller thin ones trustingly in it.

They crawled from underneath the table. Hand in hand they walked innocently to their young teacher. Katniss in her red plaid dress and Peeta in his kaki pants and yellow mustard shirt walked toward Miss Carrie.

"Katniss what happened?"

"I killed him, I over fed Louie Miss Carrie." Katniss uttered as tears streamed down her olive cheeks.

"He was hungry Miss Carrie, don't hit her." Peeta said he held her hand tightly and sheltered her.

"She deserves to be punished," Glimmer demanded.

"Glimmer Fowler, perhaps you need to sit quietly in the reading section with a book."

Glimmer stomped away.

"CATO," Miss Carrie once more called to the young blond boy who was menacing poor Marvel again.

"Thank you," Katniss said shyly.

"Would you like a cheese bun during snack time?"

Katniss shyly nodded, and Peeta shared with her a cheese bun and after snack time. Miss Carrie had music time that's when all the parents came by to pick up their kids. Katniss shot up and bravely sang the Valley Song. She looked at Peeta when she sang it. Her little heart poured into each note of the song her papa taught her. Everyone was shocked by her beautiful voice.

The look on Peeta's face always haunted her as he was moved from the school a month later. She did not see him again until years later when they ran into each other in a Wallmart. She was eighteen not even a graduate working when he came in lost looking for camping gear.

It was love at first sight.

They were unspeakable to this day she loved him with all of her might.

Katniss sighed in her sleep as she felt warm familiar. She tried to turn but found it was solid less squishy than the sofa. Then she heard the familiar thud of his heart beat. Sleepily she questioned, "Peeta?"

"Shhhh sweetheart go back to sleep." Peeta muttered has he carried her into their bedroom.

"Stay," She sleepily uttered. Katniss clutched at him when he tried to move away from her.

He wiped her hair away from her face, before he joined her on the bed, "Always."
