Chapter 12

Katniss POV:

I walk out of my room, holding little Catalina in my arms. She is almost four months old now and is the most gorgeous baby, I've ever seen. Peeta turns around from the stove and smiles. I walk into the kitchen and hug Peeta from the side.

"Good morning my beautiful girls." He whispers, trying not to wake the sleeping child in my arms.

"Hey." is all I say.

"Are you okay, love?" He asks, still whispering.

"Yeah. Just, exhausted. She kept me up all night, again." I sigh and he takes the little girl from me and in his arms.

"Sit down, I got her." He walks upstairs and comes back down without the baby. He smiles at me then pulls me into a long hug.

"You're such a good mother. "

"A tired, mother." He laughs a little.

"Yes, very. Do you want coffee? Or to sleep?" He asks, with his beautiful smile that lights up my whole world.

"I'm already up now, and there is no use in sleeping. Thank you, honey." I smile and kiss him deeply. He pulls away after a few minuets, hearing the timer go off.

"The cheesy buns!" He runs to the oven, pulls out a tray of steaming cheesy buns and my mouth waters. I sit at the table and pull out his chair, motioning for him to sit. He brings the cheesy buns over and sits, grabs my hand then we eat.

"Mmm. So delicious. Thanks." I smile and he nods.

I jerk my head around when I hear a faint cry from upstairs, I sigh and stand up.

"No! Here, I got her. Let daddy help." He smiles and runs upstairs. He loves calling himself daddy. He just loves every little task of being a father. If we're out of dipers, he'll run to the store, litterally. If the baby is crying, he'll sing her to sleep. Whenever I need help, or anything he is always there. Always. No matter how he feels, he is still strong. He hardly has any attacks now, just flashbacks. He'll grip on to the nearest thing until it's over. He hates to talk about them, but I make him. He is still the best father any kid would ever dream of. And the baby is only four months.

Peeta POV:

I run upstairs and pull my baby girl out of the crib and into my arms. Once she is in my arms she stops crying. I wipe the little drops of tears from her eyes, and kiss her head. I look down into her beautiful blue eyes, that look so much like mine.

"Hey there, Catalina. Daddys here, I gotcha. Do you know that I love you?" Her eyebrows raise and she smiles, the sweetest smile ever. A tear falls from my face.
"Yeah? You knew that? So does Mommy. She loves you a whole lot. She loves me too. We all love eachother." I smile down at her beautiful face and kiss her cheek ever so softly. I sit down in the rocking chair and sing to her.

"Deep in the meadow. Under the willow. A bed of grass, a soft green pillow.." Before I could finish her eyes are shut and she is fast asleep. I kiss her little hand and slide her into the crib. I hear faint footsteps behind me and I glance over my shoulder. Katniss smiles at me and pulls me out of the room.

She softly pushes me into our bed and lays on top of me. I laugh.

"Hey." I say, still laughing.

"What?" She says, as she strokes my jaw.

I shrug. "I don't know, you're not usually like this, remember?"

She smiles and kisses me. "I know.. But I just feel very thankful and greatful to have you.." She says between kisses, I just smile and kiss her again, as she falls asleep in my arms.

Katniss POV: and four years later.

"Daddy! Daddy!" Catalina exclaims as she runs into Peeta's arms.

"Hey there baby girl!" He kisses her head and she plants one on his cheek.

"Hey! Thats my man!" I say and run up to tickle Catalina. She is lost in a fit of laughs as I tickle her.

"Stop!" she laughs, "Mommy!" She screams, still laughing.

Peeta picks her up and spins her around the room, keeping his balance. I smile as Peeta winks to me.

"I love your Mommy, you know that?" He says, swinging her on his hip. She smiles and nods.

"You tell me everyday, Daddy!" She laughs and he pops her down, and pats her head. She runs to the box of toys in the living room and Peeta grabs me and pulls me into his arms.

"You know that, right?" He says, with his face burried in my hair.

"You don't just tell her everyday, you tell me too." I smile and he kisses me.

"How was work?" I say, as we sit on the couch together.

"Eh, could have been better. The new worker is horrible at following instructions." We both laugh.

"That's exactly how it would be like if I worked in there. Could you imagine?" He kisses my hair then shakes his head.

"You'd be great!"

I get lost in thought and smile to Peeta.

"What's up?" he asks with his blue eyes sparkling. "What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing.. Just stuff."

"Tell me." He nudges my hair with his nose and I giggle.

"Just thinking of our family."

"And?..." He says, raising an eyebrow.

"I want another."

"W-What?" He looks completly shocked, and his facce turns a little stiff.

"You heard me." I smile.
