CHAPTER 7

TRIS POV

KATNISS' FIRST BIRTHDAY

I wake up and then I realize what today is. its Katniss' first birthday! I shake Tobias, and he moans,

"Tris, its too early to wake up."

"Yes, but do you know what today is?"

"Friday" He says tiredly.

"No, its Katniss' birthday."

He shoots up in bed.

"Really!?"

"Yes. Now get ready, the screw is coming over for the party in an hour." Four goes into my en suite to take a shower and I go to get Katniss ready. I put her in a pink dress with white polka dots, and then I take her to the kitchen to get her food. I put her in her highchair and get her some applesauce and milk. I give her her food and let her eat. I put up some of the party decorations while I wait for Tobias. He finally comes out.

"Well, you took long enough." I say, then look at Katniss, who is happily eating her applesauce. I made sure I put a bib on her this morning so she couldn't ruin her dress. I go to the bathroom and take my shower. When I go to the kitchen, I hear a knock on the door. Its Uriah with the cake. I read it. it says Happy 1st Birthday Dauntless Cake Pop-Tarts! I sigh.

"Four! Can you go get a new cake?"

"I thought Uriah was getting it."

"Yes, bi=ut would you like to come read it?"

He walk over and examines the cake and then starts laughing.

"You know what. I'll just get the cake myself." I say grabbing my car keys and heading out.

When I get back, everyone is waitng there for me. We play a couple games, and then we decide we should have the cake. I light the candle and help Katniss blow it out. I put her in her highchair and take her dress off. I give her her smashing cake and when she starts playing in it Uriah gets really sad.

"Don't worry, I got us a cake too," He smiles, "But you don't get any." He looks sad again. When I go to clean Katniss up, Four gives everyone cake, including Uriah. Then we open presents.

Uriah- 2 onsies. 1 had a picture of Dauntless cake and said I am just as sweet as this and the other had a picture of pop-tarts that says Gimme some Pop-tarts.

After opening the gifts, Katniss stands up and walks over to Four. She plops on his lap and says,

"Daddy!" Four has tears in his eyes. It is her first word.
