"Oh come on." Peeta says. I sigh loudly. "Please tell me what's wrong?"

We're on the stupid plane back to stupid New York loud ass noisy bright ass stupid motherfucking City. I tell him just that.

"You don't want to leave?" he asks.

"No!" I say.

He licks his lips. "We could move here. I know why you like it so much."

"I want to move into that house!"

"So we can move into that house!" he laughs. We've already been on the plane for a while and I know we'll land in like five minutes.

"Okay."

"Okay." He laughs.

We land, and I'm in a bad mood when we check on the bakery, which he opened while I was planning the wedding. My phone starts beeping like crazy as we walk in the door, and before I even get a chance to check it, my ringtone fills the air. I almost don't answer, but I realize it's Annie.

Annie? She doesn't ever call me or anything because she's so shy. I frown and press answer. "Hey Annie." I say. Peeta looks at me in surprise. We're going to Paris tomorrow because Christmas is two weeks from now. We were on our little honeymoon for three weeks.

"Katniss?" she asks. "I need a giant favor…" she takes a deep breath.

"O-kay…" I bite my lip.

"Well I'm coming to Paris with Finnick and I'm leaving on the twenty third but…" she sighs. "I can't do it."

"Can't do what?" I ask, concerned. She better not fucking leave him. Finn loves her so much.

"I um…is Peeta with you?"

"Yes."

"Look, I know you just got off the plane and all from the honeymoon but I need you to come to Maine. I need your help."

"Annie-"

"Please?" she sounds like she's going to cry. "We have to talk."

"We're talking now." I reason.

"Katniss please! I'll pay for the ticket if I have to!"

I run my fingers through my hair. "I'll see what I can do." I hang up.

"What's wrong?" Peeta asks.

"Annie is having…" I bite my lip. Having what? "She wants me to fly out to Maine."

"No." he crosses his arms.

"Why not?"

"because I'll miss you."

"Peeta…" I bite my lip. "This isn't normal for her. She won't tell me whats going on but she was crying to me. She's really shy, and this involves Finn. I have to go."

He stares at me for a long time. "Well what about Paris then?" he asks. It's December 12th.

"I'll fly out there with Annie."

He's silent for a long time, then, upset, he says glumly, "I'll help you pack."

…a…

I jolt awake when the plane touches the ground. I've been really tired lately and my stomach's been hurting, and I think I may be coming down with the flu or something because it's like period cramps but I'm not on it.

I stretch. My boobs have been aching a little bit too, but I think it's because they've been played with so much.

I laugh at the thought and walk off of the plane, dragging my suitcase behind me. When Annie sees me, she gives me a giant hug. I hug her back and let her lead me outside. She puts me right in the car. She looks tired and stressed out, and I notice how she looks like she's in pain for a bit and then it passes. "Are you dying?" I blurt. She looks at me in shock and then starts to laugh.

"No I am not dying."

"Why do you look like you're I pain?" I ask.

"Because…" she trails off.

"Do you have treatable cancer?"

"No."

"Are you leaving Finn?"

She pulls over into a field.

"No."

"Well then what's going on, why am i-"

"I'm pregnant with Finnick's kid and he doesn't know it. I'm a month on Christmas day."

I stare at her. "Really?" I ask, sitting up straighter.

She smiles. "es." She sighs.

She starts driving again. I'm silent for a long time.

"Something's upsetting you."

She sighs and nods. "I'm terrified Finn's going to leave me when he finds out I'm pregnant." She pulls into the driveway of a house. "We'll continue this in my room." She says before I say something. She leads me inside, and I pull my luggage with me. A big younger than her, April's age, looking like a male Annie stares at me.

"Annie when you said you were bringing a friend I didn't thinking was Katniss Everdeen."

"Her last name is Mellark, Luke, she's married." She says.

"Right," He stares at me. "Mom and Dad are out."

"Okay." She doesn't seem to care. She grabs my wrist and pulls me down the hallway and slams the door to her bedroom behind us. "He's so annoying." She sits down on a twin mattress and points to the other one. "That's yours."

"Thanks..." I sit down awkwardly on it, take off my coat and sit down next to me.

"You've known Finnick longer. You know him better. I'm scared he's gonna leave me." I actually laugh.

"Annie, that's insane. Finnick is not going to leave you. He loves you and he already loves the baby, even though he doesn't know about it."

Her face contorts in pain and she lies down.

"I just hope your right." She rests her hand on her belly.

I miss Peeta and I've hardly been away from him for two hours.

We sit in silence for a long time, and I start feeling exhausted. I lay down with my phone on my belly.

"So..." She bites her lip. "How was your honeymoon?"

I actually laugh. "It was good. We um...had a lot of sex."

She laughs. "Well that's good."

We begin to chat, and then we laugh and talk more, and we're joking around and going on and on for hours.

"Wait!" I laugh. "You were accused of being sixteen and pregnant?"

She laughs harder. "Yes!"

"Oh god, that's so good!" I snicker. "So, how'd you find out?" I ask.

"Well, I just wasn't feeling well and my boobs hurt and I missed my period, so I got a about twenty tests and peed on ten of them and when all of them came back positive." She sighs. It's getting dark. We take a break for dinner and then go right back to her room. We continue to talk, and at eleven at night, I'm exhausted.

"It's so hard, though." Annie sighs.

"Why?"

"Because, I two days after you guys left is when I left so I haven't seen Finnick since, and then I find out I'm pregnant and he's called a million times but I can't answer him."

"Why can't you answer him?"

She laughs. "I don't want him to find out about this over the phone, and if I talk to him I'm going to accidently spill, so I'm forcing myself to wait until the two weeks are up and I fly out to Paris." She explains.

I nod in understanding, and we drift into a silence for a bit.

"You should take a test." She says suddenly. I laugh and run my fingers through my hair.

"I am not pregnant."

"Oh come on, just for the hell of it!"

I snort, stand up and shrug. "Okay."

It's late and everyone is asleep except for Annie's brother, Luke. She takes me into the bathroom after grabbing a box from under the bed. She hands me a test and waits on the counter as I pee on it.

"This is going to be so stupid." I snort.

I set the thing on the counter and wash my hands. We joke about random things until Annie looks at her watch. "It's time." She says.

We both look down at the test, expecting to see the little red line telling me I'm not pregnant, but we don't.

Instead, we see a little pink line crossing over another, forming a plus sign.

"Nice try. Stealing my test." She snorts.

"I…" I stutter. "I-I-I-" I cover my mouth with her hand. She looks from the test to me and then dumps the rest of the tests on the counter, all different, and forces me to piss on them.

They all come back the same.

I'm pregnant.
