America Alone [On Hold]

The Day Before

•••
Recap of Maxon's POV: "Maxon, I know you have the best intentions. However, I can't accept; I don't want to risk messing up everything. Please don't burden me with this. Instead ask someone else to do it, even America. Please." Kriss says as she tightens her grip on my hand. She then grabs the sheets and wraps in around herself as she walks over to her room, giving me a faint smile before she closes the door.

What should I do now?

- America's POV -

"Ames!" May yells as she walks into the room, earning her a glare from Mom.

"You're getting married!" May chants as she hops into the seat next to my bed.

"Yes, I am." I repeat, the words sounding weird as reality hasn't hit me.

"So, I came to help you select your outfit." May says and I open my mouth to deny her, but she beats me to it.

"Don't deny me, it is your big day! So, you deserve to look good-if not do it for me and the babies." May tells me as she puts her hand on my stomach.

"Right babies? Tell your mom I am right." May says making Mom and I burst out laughing.

"It's not funny, ugh!" May exclaims melodramatic.

"Okay, sorry-show me now." I tell her and she leaves the room for a second to roll in a rack and two large cabinets.

"Wow." I exclaim, mesmerized.

"I know right?" Mom says.

"Try this one" May says and pulls out a dress with lace on the bodice and ruffles on the skirt.

~OoO~

"No, I don't like the ruffles." I tell her and they both nod their heads in agreement.

"Okay, then mom you choose." Mom pulls out a dress a simple dress with a gold belt around the waist.

"Go try it on" she hands me the dress.

~OoO~

"No. I think the gold belt is bringing too much attention to your waist." May comments and Mom nods in agreement.

"That was what I was thinking, after all I am starting to show-not that much, but it is visible as I am eleven weeks pregnant." I tell them.

"It is a miracle you haven't been showing that much, cause when you're pregnant with multiples you show more. Do you remember how Mrs. Leger's bump was so large when she was carrying the twins?" Mom asks me and I nod my head.

"So, it is confirmed this is a no?" I ask and they all nod vigorously.

Mom gets up out of her seat and goes back to the rack and pulls out a dress with a simple crisscross pattern on the neckline.
