Hi all, this is part two of Tart's and Stud's a little story that's been rattling in my head after the prompt. I hope you enjoy.

PS I don't own the hunger games

A few months later.

Katniss read the printed diagnostic paper over and over again. Her hands trembled as she put the sheet down then took the strip of ultrasound pictures. Her leg shook as she sat on the lid. She could not believe what she was looking at. Last month she gotten a little tipsy with some wine she was using and in her fuzzy brain it had made sense to use the last two pregnancy tests. Both test read positive.

She laughed in her drunken state. Unbelieving what the tests stated, she thought they were defective and threw them out. Then a couple of days ago during her routine scheduled appointment with her OBGYN her doctor ordered both a blood exam and urine example.

Today she had been told she was pregnant and an ultrasound was immediately done. But after years of trying unsuccessfully trying her brain did not want to believe what she was being told or saw on the screen. She had cried during the entire appointment. On her way back she bought another pregnancy test and once more the little plus sign showed up. She picked up the stick that was on the counter staring at that pink little plus sign. Her hand cradling her sill flat abdomen.

The noise of the city was loud as it came from the tiny window in her bathroom, but it did not drown out the beating of her heart.

She gazed at the door and the costume that hung there for Madge's Tart's and Studs party and knew there was no way she was going to be able to make the charity event. Feeling guilty she walked too the bedroom and picked up her phone, hoping Madge wouldn't pick up.

"Hi there, can I tell you how excited everyone is about the party. Hold up no, no, no, I do not want those there." Madge spoke to someone in her voice was muffled. "I so sorry Katniss what were you saying?"

"Madge it happened."

Once more Madge was distracted. "NO, that looks wonderful, but could we move the screen slightly higher and to the left." Madge spoke to someone. "I'm so sorry Katniss, I have to make sure everything is perfect. Now you said something about something, what was it?"

"I'm pregnant."

"Wait, WHAT!"

Katniss shook her head as tears flowed from her face. "I'm pregnant."

"OH MY GOODNESS!" The phone sounded muffled for a moment. "Oh my Katniss that's so great you and Peeta have been trying for so long."

Katniss could hear Madge blow her nose over the phone.

"I just took another test. I'm really pregnant." They were one of those healthy couples who could never have children. When they began to try and nothing happened they sought out help. They were told that perhaps Peeta swimmers swam to slow, that was not true. Then they said that she was too thin and in the end they would never have children. That was also untrue. But not being able to have children they took to multiple steps. Hormones, diet changes, strange positions.

Then last year they had tried in vitro fertilization and suffered two miscarriages within her first two months of pregnancy. Seeing how hard she took losing the babies, Peeta had enough, he pulled Katniss away from the procedures. He told her that he was fine with not being a father as long as he had her and that she was happy.

So they made adjustments in their way of thinking, and began to live their lives again. They spent time together, took vacations, reconnected, healed. They were a stronger couple because of it.

"How," Madge laughed. "I know how, wow that sounds so cliché," Madge grumbled. "But I digress when did this happen?"

"You know how Peeta is about being prepared."

"Ugh tell me about it, remember last year when I ran the Marathon with you guys he's like a drill sergeant." Madge's disapproval could be heard over the phone. "That was a nasty he picked up from Effie and Haymitch."

Katniss chuckled as she pictured the neon orange haired assistant who helped Peeta run his three bakeries and her husband who was his wrestling coach in high school. "Well he wanted me to get the costumes for your party like four months ago."

"Really, for the party, what you'd pick?"

"Naughty catholic school girl in an extra small."

Madge giggled, "Ooh that would have been a good one."

"I was showing Peeta the costume for your party and we got carried a way." She waved her hand in the air as she tried to keep her calm. At the moment she couldn't make sense out of anything. "I went the doctors and he confirmed it, everything looks great. I have a real picture this time."

"Does Peeta know, of course not what am I talking about? When are you going to tell him? Are you going to tell him tonight? Please say something Katniss."

"Madge do you mind?"

"Mind! Katniss of course I don't mind you need to let Peeta know that," Madge's voice cracked. "That, he's gonna be a daddy."

Katniss placed her hand over her mouth. A fresh wave of tears fell from her eyes, as she thought of Peeta as a father. Her vocal cords produced a high pitched squeak.

"This is, is so great oh Katniss you've got to let me plan the baby shower, it'll be great, classy and simple I promise."

Katniss shook her head. "Oh yes Madge, you have to be there when we tell our family."

"Really, yeah, I've known you forever. You've been like my sister since high school."

"Oh Katniss," Madge blew her nose. Then she sniffed said. "Okay listen, I've got a great idea, put that little outfit on you wore for Peeta and tape a copy of the sonogram with the words underneath baby daddy…wait even better send me the picture I'll have it screen printed on a tank top and you can wear it underneath the shirt."

It was a brilliant idea. She ran to he bathroom and took a clear picture of the baby. "Okay, I'm doing it now."

Katniss sent a copy of her baby to Madge.

"I've got it." Madge breathed out softly, "Oh she's so pretty."

"She?"

"Of course our little bun is a she Katniss, this child is going to be the fiercest fashion diva if I have anything to say about it."

Katniss agreed and she hoped Peeta would agree.
