1 month later:
I wake up to find the light streaming in from the window. I turn my head over to find Peeta sleeping soundly on the pillow across from me. His hand was draped across my stomach in a protective position. This was how we had slept for the past month. Peeta was absolutely thrilled with me being pregnant, but to be honest I was not so thrilled.
I had waited for over 15 years to get pregnant and now that it was finally happening I was not too sure. Being in charge and responsible for a whole other person was scary. I was responsible for this little nugget (nugget was what Peeta and I had decided to call the baby up until it was born) and I had to keep it away from harm, and I had to protect it from all the dangers in the world. My hand was absent-mindedly stroking my stomach, when I felt Peeta's hand stroking mine.
"Good morning you two" he said lovingly. He reached over and kissed me and then pulled me over to lie on top of him. Whenever Peeta kissed me I felt at home and at peace with the world, I think that this is what you experience with your absolute true love.
"What were you thinking about sweety?" he said, rubbing my stomach soothingly. "Just thinking about our nugget and about, well, how nervous I am" I muttered embarrassedly.
"Why are you nervous baby?" he said turning his head to look at me, his hands still stroking my stomach. I explain to him everything I was nervous about and everything that was scaring me concerning my little nugget.
"Hey baby, there is nothing to be worried about, I am going to be here through everything. Trust me K, you are going to be the best mummy in the whole world, I can feel it". He turns me over and continues to kiss me.
The kissing became more ferocious and I felt all the fear and the worry leave my body. And then just like that Peeta was inside me, and I felt his warmth and his power coming through me. And just like that everything was gone, my only care in the world was for Peeta to stay with me forever.
"What's on the program today K?" said Peeta, handing me a plate with a stack of pancakes covered in Maple Syrup. My stomach grumbled, and Peeta smiled in reply to the nugget.
"I was thinking maybe we could go to the market and get some baking things, and maybe we could do some baking together?" I said through my mouthfuls of pancakes.
"Really you want to bake?" he said, confusion plastered on his face. It was one of the first times I had ever wanted to bake with Peeta.
"Yep, I do" I said placing my knife and fork together on the empty plate. "You finished that quickly" Peeta said with a laugh. I gave him a disapproving look "it's the baby" I said walking away with a grin on my face, "I'm going to get ready".
