I wake up and I get ready for the day.

I finish the suit that Alexander requested and since he didn't know his measurements I am winging it

I finish the suit that Alexander requested and since he didn't know his measurements I am winging it. I go upstairs and knock on his door. He opens it and says, "Hello beautiful." "Your highness, " I say. I hand him in the dress shirt and jacket. He takes his shirt off to try it on. He's ripped like I didn't think he worked out that much. "You can go in the bathroom for the pants, " I say. "Was planning on it, " he laughs. "So what's your life been like?" he asks. "Umm well here in Illèa we have a caste system if you aren't aware and I was a 5 and my family didn't have enough money and this job presented itself so I legally became a 6. This is ironic because my ex-boyfriend broke up with me. After all, he didn't want to be the reason I was a 6. After all, he was. Now I have my clothing line and a great boyfriend that I could talk about all day, " I laugh. "Wow! That must have been tough, " he called. "It was worth it, " I call back. "What about you?" I ask. "Well I've been training to become king since I was practically born and my ex-girlfriend passed away a few years ago and now well still training to be king but I have to find someone to become queen, " he says walking out of the bathroom fully dressed in his suit. "Oh wow I'm sorry for your loss, " I say. "Thanks." "So how does it fit?" I ask. "It's perfect...thank you, " he says. "Of course, " I respond. "Oh and America?" he inquires. "Yes?" I ask bewildered. "Look I'm sorry about everything before...i hadn't been around a girl in so long I forgot how to act though I know it's not an excuse. Plus my old girlfriend was quite rough so that's what I was used to. I'm sorry and I hope you can forgive me, " he apologizes. "Wow...sure Alexander we can be friends if you want, " I offer. "I would love that, " he smiles. "See ya later, " I say. "Later, " he responds. I leave and walk down the hall. I run into Maxon. "Hey, " I say. "Hey, America so the royal family of France stopped by for a few days and didn't tell us, " Maxon says. "Ugh...alright, " I say. "Where were you?" he asks. "I was bringing Alexander's suit to him, " I respond. "Are you okay?" Maxon asks. "Yeah and Maxon he isn't that bad...we should at least be allies with him, " I insist. "Why?" he asks. I tell him everything Alexander told me. "Oh wow...you're right, " Maxon says. "Come on, " I urge. "Where are we going?" he asks. "To make things right with him, " I demand. "Perfect, " Maxon agrees. We make everything right and then we go downstairs to greet the royal family of France. "Hi I'm Daphne!" the princess greets. "Your highness, " I say. "Hey Maxon, " she says. "Hi Daphne, " he responds. I meet the king and queen as well. We go to lunch. "So America how's life been?" Daphne asks. "It's been quite well...how about yours?" I ask. "Better now, " she responds. Huh? She confuses me. We talk for a while and then I remember I have a dress to finish so I can send the next shipment of dresses off. "I'm so sorry but I must go, " I say. "Everything okay?" Maxon asks. "Yes I just have a dress to finish before I can send off the shipment, " I say quickly. I rush down to my office to finish. It took me about an hour. Perfect timing too...the truck just got here. They collect the boxes and then leave. I walk upstairs to go find Maxon and I see him. I also see Alexander across the hall. I look at Maxon and Daphne has him pinned against the wall with her dress hanging off of her shoulder. They are kissing. I see it for only a moment before I run as fast as I can back to my office. I slam the door and just start crying.
Maxon's POV...
I push Daphne off of me. I wipe my lips. She was only kissing me for a moment and I hated it all. "How could you, " I glare. She just smirks. I go up to my office to finish my work for the day.
America's POV...
A knock comes at the door. "I swear if it's Maxon-" I start. The door opens and it's Alexander. "It's just me, " Alexander says closing the door. He walks over to me and sits down. "I'm sorry, " he says. "It's not your fault...and oh I'm sorry what can I help you with?" I say ripping my tears away. "I just came to see how you were...I saw the same thing you did, " he says. He puts a hand on my upper back and rubs it. I just ball my eyes out. Once I stop he says, "I can tell them you were busy with dresses or whatever if you don't feel like coming to dinner, " he says. "No thank you. I would like to see if this happens again or if Maxon tells me, " I say. "Smart...I can't believe he would do such a thing, " Alexander says. "Why?" I ask. "Well it seemed that he loves you so very much and any guy would be stupid to cheat on such a wonderful girl, " he says. "I think you're exaggerating, " I sniffle. "Well I'm not, " he shrugs. "Well I should get ready for dinner, " I say. "Would you like me to wait here?" he asks. "No thanks, " I say. He nods.
