The couple was happy and slightly worried. Would they have to compete in the Hunger Games, too? Or I wonder how they would look like... They decided to announce it to everyone on the train, from Effie, to Haymitch, to their prep teams.
"Everyone, we have an announcement to make," Peeta said loudly. "Katniss is... pregnant." They all gasped, with Effie giving the two an "I told you so" look. Everyone congratulated them and they decided to sleep for the rest of the trip to District 6, the supplier for the Capitol's transportation, including the train they were on.
They snuggled up, close to each other. "Peeta?" Katniss asked. "Yeah, babe?" He asked. "When should we tell our parents? And Prim? And... Gale?" She asked worriedly. Their whole district knew they'd gotten married 12's way, but only the people in the train knew about their baby. "We'll see," was all he said. The last thing Katniss remembered before closing her eyes was that Peeta hummed the lullaby that she had sung to Rue as she died.
[EPIC TIME-SKIP SEQUENCE]
"Oh, Peeta... I don't want to have to go to the Hunger Games! Not with the baby, at least," Katniss complained. The woman was almost 2 months pregnant, and strictly under the care of her mother, Peeta, and Prim during it all. "We must. We have to risk it, babe. If we do it, I would rather die for you and the baby's safety," Peeta said, as he always did when she complained about the Quarter Quell. "Please, Peeta! I don't want my baby to live without a father. I don't want my child to grow up... like me," she said. "Don't worry, just relax, like Mother said, okay?"
"Okay."
Should I cut off someone? Please tell me! Thanks! And may the odds- ever be in your favor!
