"Katniss, I don't think you're going to like it …" Peeta said. We were both lying down in our bed. It was already late on the day, really late. Prue was sleeping in her own room now, so it meant Peeta and I had some alone time. "Peeta, what is it?" What is there I wouldn't like? He doesn't want to make me any more cheese buns? I've gained too much weight during the pregnancy, I didn't thought so but who knows. "Katniss…" He started like he if he tried to give me the bad news on a more gentle way. "What you need to know, is that I love you, Prue loves you, Haymitch, your mom, Gale, Johanna, and everyone else love you." That's sounds like the news is going to be real bad. "Peeta, spill it out." I'm getting nervous when he talks to me like that. "Yesterday morning, while you were going out to hunt, something came on TV." TV, capitol, bad news, bad news. I was trying to stay as calm as I possibly could be. My heart beat was raising and I felt sweat coming down my spine. "What did they do this time?" I asked. He didn't spill it out fast enough. "They told everyone about Prue. They called several times this month hoping to have some information about us. But like always we told them to call back later, what meant don't bother try again." Yeah, I know that, every time the capitol calls us we tell them to call again later, and then we simply don't take the call. "I guess they got tired of waiting for us to call. They sent someone down here, into our district." That's sounds like really bad news. "Peeta, stop. Just tell me everything at once please. I can't hold it anymore." I was having some troubles to breath by now. "Well, they've had some pictures. Of you, us, inside the house…" Inside the house. Us, Prue. Well, that's something we could expect. "How did they have picture of inside the house? The only pictures we took in here are…" I said, stopping in the middle of my sentence. Pictures! In the house, Prue! I jumped out of bed and ran downstairs.
Where did I put it? I was looking around in the living room. Last time I used it, it was in here. I finally found my camera and I took it. I opened the camera, to find it empty. The card that was in it was gone. Something came in to our house and stole those pictures of us. The came in here! While I was in it! I haven't left the house once since Prue got here, so they had to come in while we were still here. And I doubt they did it yesterday. Peeta had joined me in the living room by now and putted his hands down on my shoulder. "Katniss…" He said. I was having real troubles to breath by now. All I could think off was the fact that someone came into our house, and that I didn't even noticed it. What if something bad happened? "Katniss. Calm down. Look at me!" Peeta said. He turned me around so he could face me and took my face into his hands. "Katniss look at me!" He almost yelled. I looked at him and it make me even more panicked; What if they had done something to Peeta?! I would have to raise Prue all alone. I can't do that! I can't do it without him! Is my everything! "KATNISS!" Peeta yelled even louder. He took me by the shoulder and shakes me. "Katniss! Listen to me." He said. He finally spoke loud enough to come through my panic attack. I look at him and saw the panic in his eyes. Seeing me like this is certainly not good for him. "Katniss, it's okay. We're all okay." We're okay? They got in here! How could it be okay! It's like the games all over again. They are everywhere. Nobody is safe from them! "Katniss, do you hear me? We're fine. Nobody got hurt." Not physically. "Yes, sorry. I hear you." I finally said. I could see he felt a bit better by finally hearing me speak again. But, I had the feeling it was not everything they did. Why would they need to steel the pictures? "Peeta? That's not everything is it?" I asked. I'd better get everything at once. All the bad news on the same time, better than breadcrumbs of it. "No, it's not." I figured that out. "This morning they putted the pictures on TV. The whole capitol saw them. Everybody knows about Prue now." Well, that one was an easy one. I was waiting for something like that for a while now, just didn't know they would steal the pictures in my house! Peeta was waiting for me to react. I kept looking at him right in his gorgeous blue eyes. "Peeta." I say calmly. "Who the hell came into our house?"
I couldn't matter for the rest. Everybody would know about Prue at some point. It's the way they knew about, that I didn't expected. Peeta had no idea of who could have done something like that. The only persons that have come here at some point are my mom, Haymitch, Magnolia and her family before they left and Gale. No one else. Not even Greasy Sue that likes to come pay us a visit once in a while. I wouldn't imagine any of these to do something like that. Haymitch knows how I think about the capitol. He thinks exactly like me, so he couldn't have done something like that. I went back to bed with Peeta. Mostly to make sure he thinks I'm fine. Because inside, I was everything but fine. I was boiling from the inside. Peeta was asleep in bed. While we were downstairs Prue started to cry so I gave her a bottle and joined Peeta in the bedroom. But I couldn't fall asleep. I kept thinking about which one of the persons I trust could have possibly done something like that.
Six am, still not asleep. I can feel the first traces of the sun slipping through my curtains. I'm looking at Peeta. His chest keeps getting up and down. Strangely, I'm quiet calm by now. Prue started to cry about one hour ago so I took her with me. She's lying down between me and Peeta, sleeping.
Nine o'clock. Still awake. Couldn't sleep. Peeta just woke up and found me in the shower. I've putted Prue back into bed about 30 minutes ago. She was deep asleep and I needed to move. I need to be active. I needed my mind to be clear. I couldn't think about a better way to help my brains to relax than a good warm shower. Peeta was waiting for me in our bedroom, I knew it. That's why I took my time. I needed some time to think about the one person that could have done something like this. By now, I had a pretty good idea of who did it. And it still seemed to be impossible, how could that person do that to me. Knowing everything Peeta and I've been through and how we think about exposing our baby.
"Peeta, we need to talk." I was wearing a towel when I walked out of the bathroom. "I figured so." He answered. He was holding Prue against him as he was sitting in the middle of the bed. It was obvious he was waiting for me to come alive again. "I think I know who we have to blame for this." I told him. I took a seat next to him and looked at our daughter awake in his arms .She was playing with a spoon he gave to her. I could see Peeta made breakfast by the traces of floor he had on his chin. "I think I have an idea about it too. What do you want to do about it?" He asked me. That's the question. I don't know what I want to do about it. "I think we need to go on a trip. It's time we spend a visit to Annie."
Once I said it, we started to pack our stuff. I had called my mom and Haymitch to tell them we were going on a trip. Both Haymitch and my mom told me that it was a bad idea to take Prue with us. A one month old baby shouldn't be travelling they said. I think they just didn't want her far away from them. They want to keep her close. What do they think a want? To leave my baby with them for the time I'll be gone? I've Peeta would stay here, it wouldn't be a problem. He could take care of her without any problems. I wouldn't even be that worried. But my mom, or Haymitch? No way that was a good idea. "Katniss, it's not like if we'll be away for a long time. Two days should do it. I think they can handle her for two days." He defended both of them. "Do you really think it's a good idea to leave Prue alone with my mom? Or with Haymitch?" Still don't think it's what the best thing to do. "Maybe not with only one of them. But what if they both take care of her. At the same time?" My mom, and Haymitch, taking care of Prue, in the same room at the same time? That would be, weird. But that could do it. "You know what. You tell them they can babysit if they do it TOGETHER and in our house. And that they cannot leave the house with Prue. I don't want her out of here if I'm not home." Peeta nodded and crabbed the phone. "You wish is my command my love!" Peeta added smiling before he kissed me.
So, our two lovebirds are going on a trip without their little daughter. Who are they going to go pay a visit? Who could have done something like that? Review!
