THIS CHAPTER CORROSPONDS WITH THE LAST CHAPTER, POV THURSDAY. ENJOY!
My throne was on the right side of Maxon's and Hope's was on the left. She would be on The Report once she was old enough. She was taking a nap. Maxon and I put her down about forty minuets ago. He was doing paperwork while I was helping to set up for The Report tonight.
When I had asked to help, they put up a fuss.
"You're the Queen. You shouldn't be helping."
"Yes, but I want to help. And I need to do something other than change diapers and warm bottles."
"I dont think my manager would approve of this."
"Just let her help, Jystin." Clemintine cut in. Jystin nodded, tight-lipped, and walked away.
"Thanks,Clem."
"No problem, Ames."
"Who told you that's my nickname?" She started laughing as May popped out from behind something. "May!"
"Sorry, Ames. But I thought than since you call her Clem-"
"That I should call you something." Clemintine finished. They certainly seemed to be good friends.
"Well," I caught May from behind. "Maybe we should call you something. Hmmm... June, or even July could work."
"I like July." Clemintine called.
"No! Stop!" May was laughing too now. I let her go. "Fine, but May is boring." I teased. She rolled her eyes. "Whatever, Ames. Im going to get lemonade. Want some?"
"Sure."
"I'll be quick."
"You better."
Clem and I shared a look.
I know Clemintine because she was friends with the woman who is the biological mother of Marlee's son. His real mother was killed in the huge rebel atrack right before The Selection ended. Since she and Carter knew her, they adopted Charlie.
I started helping out, and after twenty minutes I stood up, wondering where May was. All the sudden I felt someone hug me from behind. It scared the living daylights out of me!
But I turned around and saw Marlee. That's right! She and Carter were going back to Kent today. It turns out they are both have family from the same province.I hugged Marlee.
I didin't want her to go. "Are you leaving?"
"Yeah." Marlee looked regretful.
"Dont forget to call me, or i'll fly out to Kent to find you. Trust me, you dont want that."
"No, I dont. All the headlines would be saying the same crazy thing."
"Queen leaves important business meeting to fly out to best friends doorstep." Clem added. All of us started laughing our eyes out.
"Where are Hope and Maxon?"
"Hope is taking a nap and Maxon is doing work in his office."
"Aww. Give them both a kiss goodbye for me."
"I will."
We hugged for the last time for a while.
"I have to go. Goodbye!" She started running away. She probably was late. Oh Marlee.
"Goodbye, Marlee. Oh, and Happy Anniversary!"
Today was her first anniversary. I was so happy for her. But I was also going to miss her. I said goodbye to Charlie and Carter this morning when I ran into them in the garden.
"I should be going." I told Clem.
"Ok. Wouldn't want the Queen to be late getting ready." She teased.
"Shut up." I retorted.
As I walked to my room, I remembered May. Where was she? Oh well. Probably got sidetracked by some artwork.
