It has been two and a half months since Gale's surprise visit. Since he invited us to his wedding. And we still haven't gotten them a gift. I don't know what his fiancé is like, other than what Gale said about us being similar, so I have no idea what we should get them. I feel even worse about us not inviting him to our wedding. Granted it was a small one with only a few people from town at the ceremony.
I wake up and Peeta is heading to the bakery to fill some orders really quickly. I am clutching his pillow with one hand, I guess tricking my mind into thinking he was still there, and I am subconsciously rubbing my large stomach to calm my stirring baby.
"Leaving so early?" I ask still stroking my stomach.
"Yeah, but I'll be back before noon and we can go look for a gift for the wedding. Sound good?"
"I guess."
"Okay" he says. I get up out of bed which is rather difficult with my baby bulge. He comes over and kisses me then my stomach.
"I love you" he says to me. "And I love you" he says in his baby voice to my belly stroking it.
"We love you too" I say holding his hand.
We walk on down the stairs to the front door and pause a moment not wanting to let go. I kiss him and say "I love you"
"I love you too" he says, kisses me again then leaves.
I walk into the kitchen and decide to grab some breakfast. I eat my food quickly then I go into the living room and sit down on our plush sofa. I decide to turn on the television, I'm the only one who uses it at all because I tend to have a lot of down time since I am not allowed to leave the house hardly at all. Peeta wouldn't let me even leave the bed if I didn't have to which annoyed me to no end.
When I got bored watching the television I started a list of possible wedding gifts for Gale and his fiancé. It turned out to be a very short list because I am completely lost on the whole wedding thing. So I just stuck to the basics, dishes and glass ware, I got stuck and just gave up then started watching the television again.
A few hours later Peeta came home to make some lunch then go shopping. We quickly ate then got all bundled up, well Peeta forced me to put on layer after layer. I walked out and was so glad I had so many layers on because it was still a bit nippy even with all this on. We went to the main shop that we could think of and asked for help shopping for the wedding, since neither of us knew what to get them. Everywhere we went people were staring at us and my nice bulge that now made me regret coming to town.
"What do you think about this one?" Peeta asked picking up the plate directly in front of him. It was green with a black underside and some brown in the middle of the top of it. Then
"That looks good" I said then mumbled "I guess" under my breath so that only I could hear it.
"Okay, we'll take these" he said to the worker. The worker quickly checked us out and we left the store. We went home and just sat eating dinner and talked about what we thought the wedding would be like. Peeta constantly said we should just stay home with the baby due only a week after it, but I told him that we were going and that was final. We ended up going upstairs at 9:30 and fell asleep shortly after.
Yeah this is a bit of a filler chapter but next is the wedding! Review? I have a lot more planned, trust me, but don't have enough time to edit it and type so I'll get it in ASAP! I also am open to suggestions as to what you think should happen. Finally I have some baby names that I came up with: Demer (pronounced deh- mer) Rue Mellark and Kana (Kahnah) Prim Mellark. IDK open to suggestions! I am not going to put up my next chapter until I get one more review. Hope to post soon!
