Selection Epilogue

Chapter three

Maxons point of view:

I feel bad for our fight. I understand her point. I would love to spend more time with her, but I am king. I don't have much time.

But I know I have to find some for her. If I don't have America, I don't have anything.

I don't know where she went, but I am going to give her some space. She's probably pretty upset with me. I can't say I'm not upset either.

I lay down in the bed. I can't fall asleep. I need America. I sigh and roll over. I put a pillow she where usually sleeps to try to trick myself. It doesn't work.

The next day

I have meetings all day. I know this is only going to make her more mad. It's not like I like going to these meetings.
She makes it sound like I like giving up spending time with my wife to go to boring meetings. Trust me, if I had a choice I would spend all day with her.

I haven't seen her all day. She is probably avoiding me. I wish I could see her . No matter how mad I am at her seeing her always makes my day better.

I glance at my watch it is only. 2:00 p.m. I'm not going to make it. I sigh.

As I'm walking to my office I see her in the hall. She sees me and just walks away. No smile, no wave, nothing. She must be really mad.

I remember at 3:00 we have a meeting together. We will have to talk to each other. I'll just have to wait one more hour.

One hour later at 3:00

I head to the meeting. She is already there, sitting down. She doesn't even glance my way. I sit next to her. Is this how she is going to be? How long will this last? She'll have to be nice at some point.

The meeting begins. She doesn't say a single word the whole time. She quickly walks out after.

I sigh.

Two days later

It's been two days now! I miss her smile and her laugh. I miss her voice. I just miss her.

I finish another long day.

I canceled all my meeting for tomorrow so we can spend time together. I haven't told her. I want it to be a surprise. If she will even talk to me.
I get ready for bed and lay down.

It's been so hard to sleep without her.I miss her next the me. There is no one to hold anymore. I lay down and try to fall asleep. It is useless.

My door opens and someone walks in. Wait that isn't just someone..that is my someone!

She Walks across the floor and gets into the bed. She Must see my confused look.

"I can't sleep without you." She Says.

"Me either,"I whisper.

I hold her close. I miss this so much. I smile.

"I'm sorry,"I say, "we will spend more time  together."  I say.

"I'm sorry too. I missed you," she replies.

"I cancelled my meetings for tomorrow so we can spend time together," I say.

She smiles . I missed that smile.

We are both asleep in minutes, thankful to be with each other again.

It's not over
