Life Without the Selection

Chapter 27

It's been about three days since we came back from camping. Camping was a lot of fun. I got to spend time with my family and Maxon's family and with Maxon himself. May and I got to spend a girls' day out with Mom today.
"America! Ames! Can we wear matching outfits today?" May squealed next to me.
"Okay okay, calm yourself May. What do you want to wear?" I asked looking at her. I put my hair into a messy bun and clipped it.
"Hmm," she walked to our closet and pulled out two red dresses.
"What about these?" May said licking her lips. I laughed at her perkiness.
"Okay okay," I said and went to the bathroom to change. May was already wearing her dress and dancing around in it. I stood there watching, and about two minutes later she saw me.
"America! Were you watching me?" she yelled blushing.
"Hmm, stop daydreaming and get ready," I said laughing as I did my makeup. I put on some light lipstick and blush, before I slipped on my red heels. May slipped on her red flats and she put on some red lipstick.
"Are you ready?" I asked May after she put on the last of her makeup. She nodded at me and skipped out of our bedroom. I laughed softly and followed her out.

"Mom, you need to get that dress," I say as Mom was looking at a white floral dress.
"No, it won't look pretty on me," she said but didn't put the dress down.
"Mom. No. Get it."
"Okay okay I'll try it on,"she said as she hurried off into the dressing room. I went to go find May with a handful of clothes.
"Woah, are you going to buy all of that?" I said pointing a finger at the big pile of clothing.
"No. Of course not," she said nervously. I eyed her carefully before I turned around to go check some accessories.
"America?" I heard a familiar voice said. I put down the bracelet I was looking at and turned to see a smiling face with another smiling face.
"Thea, what a surprise to see you here!" I said hugging her. I smiled at Maxon.
"What are you doing here, my dear?" Maxon said wrapping an arm around me. Thea put a finger in her mouth and pretended to gag.
"Is May here with you?" Thea asked excitedly.
"Yeah, she's somewhere here with a big pile of clothing in her hands," I say laughing and pointing at her. Thea skipped off to May.
"So my dear, what are you doing here?" he said as I continued to look at the bracelet I was admiring before.
"Oh just a girls' day out with Mom and May," I say shrugging.
"Here let me," Maxon said as he took the bracelet from my hand and wrapped it around my wrist. It was a simple bracelet with blue beads.
"It's gorgeous, love. Let me buy it for you," he said slipping it off and taking my hand to pull me to the cash register.
"Maxon! No, it's okay, I don't want it don't buy it," I begged him but he already handed it to the cashier.
"Maxon," I whined. He pulled out some cash and handed it before he pulled me back to a quiet place and slipped it on me.
"There, it's gorgeous on you," he said taking my hand and placing a kiss. I blushed madly and he placed a small kiss on my forehead. He pulled away and smiled at me.
"Hey, America, it looks wonder- Maxon! What are you doing here?" Mom said as she came out of the dressing room.
"Oh I'm just taking my sister shopping," he says putting an arm around my shoulders.
"Well you lovebirds go walk around, I'll bring May and Thea back home," she says taking the two girls towards the cashier.
"Are you sure Mom?" I say putting a hand on her arm. She nods.
"Yup! Go on, go what you two do, I'll see you at home," she says and she waves at us goodbye. Thea and May wink at us in unison, causing us to blush madly.
