The Selection

He's back, Wrong timing??

           Melony's Pov

      On my way to breakfast the next morning I saw about five girls with suitcases and I knew they were leaving. I was guessing it was because of the rebel attack. When I walk into the dining hall everyone is seated and waiting for the royal family. I take my seat and talk to Ruby and Jillian who sit on either side of me. "So how many people went, I saw five girls out there but I'm guessing more than that are leaving" I say.

              "I think about six or....."Ruby gets cut off when the royal family comes in.

              "Please, take your seats ladies and enjoy your meal"the king says then sits down.

              Prince Andrew stays standing then says" Ladies we will have more guards and we will also have one posted at each of your room they will rotate and we have also lost six more girls so I will not eliminate again until next month thank you and you may eat." He finished and I swear my breath got caught in my throat but I fight the feeling and go back to my conversation.

                "So do you think that the guards will be cute, I mean I understand we are here for the prince but we can still hope" Jillian says of course she would say that I mean have you met her. Oops sorry you haven't got to know her like I have. I can't help but be glad that breakfast is over I mean I just need to relax.

              On my way into my room I see someone I had hoped to never see again. All I could think was why was he here but then I noticed the soldier uniform that he was wearing. It was Max if you hadn't guessed that already. When I walked up to him he smiled but I guess he wasn't expecting what I did next. Yep I smacked him if you guessed that you were right.

            I heard a gasp from behind me but I didn't care. "If you came here to apologize for what you did I don't need u anymore I like the Prince and im glad I came here. You should know I came here so I could get away from you. Why would come here?" I all but yell at him.

            "Im sorry Melony what you saw wasn't true she pushed me behind that tree and dug her nails into me I promised you I didnt cheat. I swear please believe me" he pleads.

            "No you cant just do that and come back and apologize I let it happen once and I sure as h*** wont let it happen again" I turn around and see Andrew standing there and I knew he saw what happened I could I could feel the tears running down my face. Andrew looked like he was going to walk up to me. I did the only thing I could think of at the moment I ran past Andrew and down the stairs straight for the double doors.

            I could hear Andrew telling me to stop and I knew he was following me. I just needed to be alone right now so I ran to the only place I knew.
