They opened the door to the bathroom, and I realized I was caught. There was no getting out of this. Finally Aspen pulls open the shower curtains. I gasp. He looks surprised when he sees me.
"Mer?"
"You found me." I say in a sarcastic tone.
"You have to come with us."
He says
"No thank you." I say.
"America it's the order of the king."
"Clarksons wants me?"
"No didn't you hear, he died yesterday morning, Maxon wants to see you."
He then grabs the phone sitting in his utility belt.
"Please don't call him." I beg.
"I'm sorry Mer."
"Yes, king Maxon please."
He waits then gets a hold of Maxon.
"Hello, yes we found her. What do you want me to do with her." He asks
I get annoyed so I do what I know annoys him most when I whine.
"Aspen do I havvvve to? Come on I don't wanaaaa." Then I bring on the fake tears.
"America shut up I can't hear him."
So I give up.
"Okay, okay got it, see you in a few."
He hangs up and grabs me walks me to the car and we drove to the airport with out a word.
When we get to the airport we walk to the private plane area. I realized I don't have any clothes, so I speak up.
"Uh.. Aspen I don't have any clothes."
"Don't worry America it's already taken care of."
"What do you mean?"
"Maxon made the maids make tons of dresses, he even got dress pants and shirts."
"Really?"
"Yes Mer he really misses you."
That's when I started to feel better about going to the palace.
The whole plane ride all I could think is he actually cares.
