Selection Epilogue

Chapter eleven

America's point of view

Maxon and I dance for what feels like forever. But being king and queen we have to share our time with other people.

Eventually I get my husband back.

Marlee and Carter walk up to Maxon and I.

"America!! This is so much fun! It's so nice to see everyone again. I missed everyone!" Marlee says.

"Me too. It's good to see everyone." I say.

Soon Maxon and Carter are having their own conversation, and so are Marlee and I.

"So.....should we be expecting any Maxon or America juniors any time soon?" She asks.

I blush, "I think we are going to wait a little while." I say.

She frowns.

"We are still getting used to being king and queen!" I remind her.

She sighs, "I know..."

I giggle.

"You'll be the first to know," I say.

It's true. And she'll most definitely be the godmother. She is my closest friend.

She smiles, "I know...It's just that..."

What is she going on about? I really do want children. Maybe even soon, but right now isn't the perfect time.

"What is it?" I ask.

She sighs, " It's just... I think it would be nice for our kids to have a playmate..."

"But you're not- MARLEE! Are you-"

"YES!" She says happily.

I wrap my arms around her.

"Oh my God! Marlee! I am SO happy for you!" I say.

We pull away from our embrace.

"Marlee, I cant even say how happy I am for you two!" I say.

I could not be happier. She and Cater have been through too much. They deserve this.

Maxon and Carter walk over to see what the commotion is about.

"MAXON!! Actually, you guys should tel him!" I say.

"I'm pregnant!" Marlee says happily.

"It's really soon, and we probably shouldn't even tell you incase-"

"Everything will be fine. Stay positive. I just can't believe this!" I say.

"That is great. I'm happy for both of you," Maxon says.

"And....there's more..." Marlee says.

More?

"We want you to be the Godparents!" She says.

I wrap her in a hug again.

"Marlee! Thank you. That is so sweet! Of course we will!" I say.

Maxon and Carter shake hands. Guys are so weird. Why can't they just hug?

Just then we here a loud bang.

I turn my head and there are men with guns.

Comments?
