MAXON's POV

I want to rip his limbs off. He's proposing to my girl!!

I couldn't move an inch, Delancy paralyzed me. Then I can feel it wearing off, so I clenched my knuckles, I swear to God, my veins were popping out. Delancy leaned in.

"You better stop that" She whispered.

I breathed out and squeezed her hands instead. Then I looked at our intertwined fingers, the ring I gave her was sparkling. It was supposed to be America's but it's on her. And the ring that was supposed to be on Del's finger was on my girl instead.

"I'm going to be sick" I mumbled.

"Breath in and out, Max. You can pass this, I have faith in you" She encouraged.

"Thanks" I smiled at her.

"Anytime!" She sang, a beautiful smile plastered on her glowing face. She was beautiful, shining in her own way.

My eyes trailed down her golden strands flowing on her back and shoulders and how her tiara matches her hair. I reached and touched her hair, she didn't flinched, she just let me hold her hair.

"America" Delancy cooed, opening her arms for her.

They hugged each other then Cal ran beside America.

"Good Terms?" Cal outstretched a hand.

"Good Terms" I finally said, shaking his hand as a formal good bye for my America.

We started eating our meal. Then to our surprise, King Tiberias walked to our table with Queen Elara.

"Everyone, we have a news" Elara sang.

We stopped, turning our attention to them. They smiled at each other, a genuine smile.

Ohhhhhh.....

"We have decided to give Cal and Maven a vacation" Tiberias says. Both brothers lit up.

"What vacation?" Maven asked, holding Wendy's hand.

"We heard that the Mortensen siblings are visiting States for quite some time, so your father and I decided for you to come with them" Elara smiled sweetly.

"And of course with your girls with you" Tiberias added.

"Thank you, Father" Cal and Maven says in unison.

............

"Welcome Aboard, Your Highnesses... I'm Dylan Galiger, your Captain for today's flight" The man on the speaker says.

"Please fasten your seat belts and for your safety, please wait for the seat belt signs turned off by our captain before taking the lavatories... Thank you and have a great flight" A flight stewardess announced.

Our seats was beside our fiancé, Amielle and Mathew are sat beside each other.

"Matty, I want there!" Delancy pouted like a child.

"No way Lancy, you get to sit with your fiancé" Mathew mocked, ruffling Amielle's blonde hair.

"Hey! Stop it, I'm no kid"

I laughed, it sure great to have a sibling. Unfortunately, my mom was only capable of having me.

"Please, Matty?.. I won't steal your apple strudels" She put on her puppy eyes. America and Cal laughed at her pleading.

"Okay! You win!... No stealing my apple strudels" Mathew got up and sat beside me.

"AMIEY!!" Delancy squealed, hugging her brother's arm.
