Chapter 23: She is our daughter

Chapter 23

-Katniss-

The assistants were finished with me and Peeta first. We have our usual theme: coal and fire, didn't really come as a shock to us. Our clothes are the same as in the previous interview, but mine is new stitched, Plutarch made sure that my dress would fit my five month baby bump.

I have the same makeup and Peeta looks as sexy as he did last time. I seriously can't take my eyes off him ...and I think I'm starting to drool.

Peeta and I are in the living room alone in Plutarch residence. Finn and Cassidy are being fixed by my assistants and Plutarch himself insisted on getting quality time with Willow. Where the others are, I have no idea.

"Take a picture Katniss, it lasts longer", Peeta says and I realize that my fear of staring at him and drool, is happening right now.

I sit crossed-legged on the sofa and Peeta does the same, mostly to tease me, I can see that. But I put my arms around his neck and smile slyly.

"Why would I, when I have the real thing all for myself everyday of my life?"

"That's a really good question", Peeta smiles.

I shove Peeta on his back in the sofa and bend over him and kisses him very passionately.

My tongue finds its way into his mouth and he moans pretty loud of satisfaction.

"Ewwww", I hear someone shout behind me. I recognize that voice all too well.

I quickly raise and see Willow in the arms of an grinning Plutarch.

"I just thought I would tell you that the assistants are ready to start preparing Willow now and after that we're ready to go", Plutarch says and keep himself from laughter.

"Mama why did you eat on Papas face?" Willow asks and frowns.

I look at Peeta who fail to keep away his laughter.

I don't know what to answer to that, but Peeta comes to my rescue.

"It's something that you'll learn when you're older Willow", he says calmly.

"Oh", she says and Plutarch walks off with her to the assistants.

But we hear him shout:

"You might want to wash off your faces before we leave!"

"Yeah! Wash your faces!" Willow's cute toddler voice comes right after.

Peeta and I bursts out laughing.

***

I sit behind tha stage and get my make up in order after I washed almost all of it away when I tried to wash the lipstick of my face. My assistants pannicked and Octavia fainted when they saw, but they took makeup with them here and since Finn and Cassidy is interviewed first, I can't see their interview.

When the assistants are done with me, I walk up to the other who's standing by the television backstage.

"Caesar tried to trick them to talk about our private life", Peeta laughs when he notices that I'm standing next to him.

"But did they say anything?" I ask when I see that they stand up from the love seat in the TV and starts walking backstage.

"Nope they're really smart", Peeta says. "But they made Caesar and the audience very curious, on purpose".

Now I see Plutarch with Willow. We decided that he would bring her here right before Peeta and I walk up on the stage and after a while Finn and Cassidy will come out with her to us.
