Another chance (The Selection Fanfiction)

Chapter five

Juliano's point of view:
Two weeks later,
I was going to see the love of my life now. What, what happened to me, I have never fell in love with any girl that easy, and especially after Luciana I didn't date or speak with any girl, but why her? Why every time I see her I forget to breath? Why every time I see her smile I stuck in my place, smiling like idiot? Why seeing her eyes make me happy and determined to keep her happy, forever? Why hearing her voice gives me the oxygen that I need to breath?
Now, I was walking towards the infirmary to help America, because the doctor gave her the permission to move to her room, but in the same time I'm afraid. Yesterday her mother, Celeste and my sister told her about Maxon and the selection, and I didn't know what was her reaction, or if she had remembered him. All I want from her is to never remember him, because if she did she'll suffer like what had happened to me, and maybe more. I don't know how stupid Maxon can be, I mean everybody saw the love in her eyes for him, but he let her go, and chose that girl kriss. I know that he will regret his choice, but when he'll do, he'll see that America is gone forever, because everyone and especially all the people in Illea know that America is died, everyone on this earth except my family, and even though my family will never tell anyone about her, to protect her from king Clarkson.
I arrived the infirmary, but before I opened the door I took a deep breath, "Everything will be ok." I tell myself, then I entered and said "Good morning, beautiful. How are you, now?" She blushed but said "Fine." Then she looked away and continued "Jul, can I ask you something." I smiled "Yes, angel." I'll never call her dear, because she despises this word a lot. "Did something happen, yesterday?" She asked. I looked confused, so she said "Never mind. It's nothing."
"Ames, tell me. We promised that we will tell each other everything." I insisted. "The story is that you didn't come to see me yesterday. That's all." She smiled sadly and she looked at the ground, then she whispered to herself "I missed you." If I didn't focus on her, I wouldn't have listened it, maybe she didn't mean to speak it out loud, even though, I couldn't stop myself from saying "You missed me, really." I said sheepishly. "Huhh" now she was the one who's confused, "Did... Did I..." She blushed, I nodded. She's so cute when she blush.
I hugged her while I'm saying, "Yes, you did. But do you know something, I'm happy, actually I'm on the cloud nine." I kissed her hair, and get away a little bit to see her face and continued "Actually, I came yesterday, but you were asleep and I didn't want to wake you, so I watched you a little bit, then I went to my room." She smiled a real smile. And I was happy for that.
"So do you want to leave or stay here, where medicine, white walls,.." She didn't let me continue "No, of course not. I want to go out of here as fast as possible before the doctor comes and changes his mind, and let me stay here for another day." I laughed, and she started walking fast, so I called "Ames, I missed you." She turned and her eyes lighted like a diamond. "But you said that you had seen me." She said teasingly. "Yes, I did, even though you were asleep like angels, I didn't speak with you. And for your knowledge, if I didn't see your face for one second, I misses you." She hugged me, and said smiling "I must call you mister dramatic." She giggled, then she started pulling me out of this room. "Hurry up." And we started running in the hallways laughing, and when we arrived to a door I stopped and told her "America Singer, I want to show you something before I take you to your room." She laughed and said "America singer now, why the formality." I laughed, then shrugged. Her mischievous eyes lighted while she started jumping "Where do you want to take me?" I lifted my brows in a no way, and said "It's a surprise." She groaned "Please, I don't love the surprises." I laughed at that. "That's why I love surprising you." "Juliano Rossi." She yelled. So l repeated her question "Why the formality, miss." And we both burst laughing.
When we arrived the gardens she gasped "I think I'm in heaven. They are so beautiful." "I heard that you love the gardens, so I decided to take you, to take a fresh air after being in a room for so long." She hugged me "Thanks. That means a lot to me." Then she kissed me on the check. "Let us set under that tree." I nodded.
When I sat, I pulled her towards me, and I let her put her head on my lap. After a while, she closed her eyes and I started playing with her hair. It was so soft. I stayed staring at her face while my fingers are still playing in her hair, wondering how can a woman has this beauty.
Suddenly she said "Jul, please sing to me a song," "Which one." "The same song that you have sung for me when I was in coma." She answered with her eyes closed. She loved this song, and after I had sung it to her, she started asking me to sing it for her every day, like she has become addicted to it. "Your voice is more beautiful than me." "Please, Jul." "Ok." I answered. And I started to sing. (AN/ the song is in the video below, I hope that you'll listen to it. It's a lovely song.)

After I finish singing, America was so close to being asleep, "Ames." I whispered "Mmmm." That was all she said. "I'll take you to your room so you can be comfortably asleep in your bed. Then, I'll tell my family that you won't come to lunch, and you'll see them all at dinner." I said. "Ok." "Do you want me to carry you." She nodded. So I carried her to her room, and when I put her on the bed she was already asleep. I kissed her on the forehead and left the room.

After I finished my meeting with my brother, we both went to the dinning room, and when we entered my family, and America's family were waiting my brother, me and America. And when I sat on my chair, I started panicking, does something bad happen to her, but suddenly the door opened and the girl that made me crazy had entered and said "I apologize your majorities, I'm late." Oh God, she's the most beautiful girl in the whole world in that dress. (AN/ her dress is like the picture below.)

My family stood up and walked towards her "Don't apologize, it's ok. How are you my dear." My father said, but I told him "Father don't call her dear, she hates this word." And everyone in this room started laughing. She blushed but she didn't say anything except the glares that she had sent at me.
Then everyone in my family hugged her, and some had kissed her on the checks.
The dinner was amazing, everyone was happy, everyone was speaking with each other like they know them for years. And when I turned to look to the girl beside me, I found that she's looking at me, and when our eyes met, we smiled at each other. Then, I moved closer to her ear and said "After the dinner I want to tell you something." "Sure." She said even though she want to know what the something is. "Also, the smell of your perfume is so good." She blushed and I smirked. "Ames, you both look good together." "May." America's mother and America yelled together. "But May is right." My sister assured, and me and America became like a tomato.
"Your majesty, I want to thank you, if you didn't help me, I would be died by now." "America, don't thank us, we only did our duty, so don't think that you're in debt, also we thank you for what you did for our son, he became better." America had looked at me, and then she nodded.

After the dinner, I walked America to her room so I can speak with her. "So." She asked. "I only wanted to ask you if you can go with me to watch a movie. What do you think?" "I would love to." "Really." "Yeah, really." She assured me. So, I kissed her on the check and said in her ear "See you tomorrow, love." I was so happy that she gave me a chance, and I'll never disappoint her."
I thank everyone who had voted or gave a comment, also I thank everyone who had followed me, that meant a lot to me. So, the next chapter will be their first date, until then.
Love,
Juliana.
