The Additions

Chapter 20

America's POV
A guard walks in "Excuse me but I have some news about Mrs.Woodwork."

My face goes pale, "Yes, what is it?"

"She said not to tell you, she wants to tell you in person."

"Oh, ok" I reply.

Maxon takes my hand then whispers in my ear, "everything will be alright." He squeezes my hand to let me know it will be ok. It's really reassuring, how did I get so lucky to deserve Maxon?

We walk down to the infirmary. I'm just really not sure what to think, I mean so many different things could have happened. She could have had a stillborn baby, she could have had the wrong gender; they told her it was a boy. She could have had surprise twins! Or she could just want to show us the baby. I really just don't know. Maxon snaps me out of my daze. "America, we're here."

We walk in and Marlee is holding 2 bundles! 2! I run over to her, "Marlee you had twins!" I gasp, "did they tell you ahead of time? Or was it a surprise?"

"We actually knew the whole time." She replies. I gasp and put a fake angry face on. "I just wanted to see your face when you found out!"

I give her another hug, "oh Marlee, I'm so happy for you!"

"Thank you, do you want to hold one?"

"Of course I do!" She hands me a little bundle in a white blanket.

"That's Sadie."

"She is just precious!"

Maxons POV
I walks over to carter, "so how does it feel to be a dad?" I ask him.

"Exciting, nerve wracking, sickening."

"I understand." I reply, "I had no clue how America and I would handle it, but I knew we could get through anything together."

"At least that's what I keep telling myself!" He replies. We share a laugh.

"Well, if you ever need someone to talk to, I am here."

"Thanks Maxon." He replies. We do that clap each other on the back bro hug thingy. And I walk over to America.

America is holding two bundles in her arms, "Maxon, this is river their son. And Sadie, their daughter!"

"Those are precious names." I reply, "And congrats Marlee." America hands Marlee her bundles of joy back and walks over to me, "well America and I will give you four sometime to bond."

Alright guys,

So this is a short chapter, but I barley had time to write it. I have to work on my ELA project and study for 2 tests. So you are welcome for an update! This chapter is also short because I plan to write a finale over the course of spring break. Don't get too sad, I'm going to write a sequel. But I just want to sum up this one right now, so that I can focus on preparing for the map test and all the projects my teachers are giving me. I will write the sequel in the summer, and I plan to write another book. Please vote in the comments on if you want a "life as fives" (like America and maxon are fives together) or a hunger games fanfic?

Forever R💕
