"Peeta times getting on." i groan.

"Calm down, Haymitch has the kids and gus and we have a couple of hours, I really don't want you walking around too much." he replies looking concerned.

"I'll be fine, il tell you if I get too tired" I answer picking up my coat off of the hanger.

"Il hold you to that. Come on then let's go." He smiles before opening the door.

"Ladies first." he says putting his hand out.

I stand waiting.

"Katniss?" He asks confused.

"You said ladies first, I'm waiting for you to leave." I say biting my lip.

It takes a moment before he catches on.

"Aha your so funny." he said sarcastically before he laughs for real.

I join in as we leave the house and take a stroll through the victors village.

We enter the town and I feel everyone's eyes on me.

It's probably got to do with the fact that we hadn't told anyone im pregnant.

Gladly the capitol doesn't know either but I guess it will be top news tonight.

"Peeta I whisper." not looking up at him.

I'm not comfortable with everyone staring.

I know I've been on camera since I was 16 but it's not something I'm ever going to get used to.

I don't think anyone could apart from maybe Johanna.

Only because she's great at answering questions with sass.

I'm not someone who's like her.

I'm not a great speaker, not like my husband, Peeta.

"Shh it's okay, we're here now." he replies squeezing my hand making me feel calm.

We enter a clothes shop and go straight to the newborn baby girl section.

We pick out many baby grows and cute outfits perfect for our new baby.

We get supplies like nappies, bibs, bottles, dummies and anything else she will need.

I start to feel more excited about the baby arriving.

Getting the supplies makes it feel even more real.

We pay for the supplies and thankfully the woman doesn't mention it.

Instead she smiles kindly like she would to any other person in the district.

We go to the shop next door to get a new crib, baby swing, and wardrobe.

We pay the money and the worker tells us the driver will bring the products to our house at 6 tonight

"Just one more shop." Peeta says as we enter the paint shop.

As soon as we enter the smell makes me sick to my stomach.

I wasn't bothered when u was pregnant with willow and noah but this time it's worse.

I scrunch my nose still holding tightly on Peetas free hand.

"You okay?" Peeta wonders when he realises I'm pulling a face.

"The smell is so bad." I reply honestly.

"You okay? I can come back another time" he answers kindly.

"It's fine, il survive." I smile.

We pick out some cream paint for the babies room.

We pay and slowly we take a walk back home.

"Peeta?" I ask with a thought.

"Yeah?" He questions turning to face me.

"Could you paint the room, I mean for the babies?" I ask hopefully.

"Of course I can." he smiles pecking my lips.

"Always."
