Not Your Typical Princess:Selection Fanfiction (COMPLETE)

Chapter 73

Chase POV:

Alec falls next to me on the bed, breathing hard. "Where... did you... learn to do... that?" I ask.

He laughs. "That's for me to know and you to never find out."

"Jack?" I guess.

He glares at me. "Shut up."

I giggle and roll over next to him. I peck his lips. "I'm sorry baby, it was just a guess."

He sits up and plays with a strand of my hair. Twirling it in his fingers. "It's fine. You should probably call your parents and sister soon."

I shake my head. "I'll call them later. Right now I just want to be here with you, my loving husband."

He laughs and kisses my forehead. "What else do you want to do while we're here?"

"Well it's too cold to do much. So let's just stay in bed."

He slides down the bed and wraps me up in his arms. "Hm... clothes or no clothes?"

I pretend to think for a minute. "Whichever you prefer."

He presses his lips to mine and goes on top of me. "I think you know which one I prefer."

America POV:

I glare at Maxon. "Stop pacing. She'll call when she is ready."

Maxon glares at me. "I know what that means and don't ever say that again." I raise an eyebrow at him. He sighs. "Sorry. I'm just..."

I giggle, "Maxon, I know. But you know that this would happen eventually. With all of our babies. Charlie has babies of her own, for goodness sake."

He sighs. "I know it's just hard. Chase was the first baby. Then of course Charlie right after her but you know..."

"Oh, I know. I only carried them for nine months and gave birth to them." I say walking over to him. "But you mustn't worry. They're fine. I'm sure they're having a great time."

He looks at me flatly. "That's what I'm worried about."

"Mommy!" Cory sobs walking into the room. His knees are red and bloody, his hands too. "I fall down!"

I walk over to him. "Oh baby. It's okay. Mommy and daddy will get you all cleaned up."

Maxon picks him up, he cries into his chest. "It's okay, buddy."

After we put the bandages on Cory, he falls asleep in Maxon's arms. "You know," he says, "I'm not feeling too bad about the girls growing up."

Cory sucks on his thumb, the sucking noises filling the silence. "Me too. Maxon. Me too."

Chase POV:

"Chase?" Alec asks, waking over to me. "You okay?"

I nod resting my head on his chest. "Yeah. I just... I wish we could stay here forever. Just you and me. No palace. No crown. No kingdom. Just you and me and no one else."

He wraps his arms around my waist and kisses the top of my head. "I do too, baby. I do too."

"We are going out to see the northern lights tomorrow night," I remind him, pulling Alec over to the table and handing him a glass of warm coco. "Are you excited?"

He nods and blows on the hot drink. "Of course, I can't wait."

"I've heard they are beautiful." He opens his mouth to reply but I stop him, "if you say 'not as beautiful as you' I'm going to punch you."
