The Selection

Chapter 2

Americas POV

--

"America." The doctor said into the phone. "Your pregnant!"

I instantly hung up the phone. How was I going to tell Maxon? My mom? The country?

"Everything ok?" Maxon asked. I nodded not able to get the words out.

"Ok." Maxon said. "Well I have a meeting. So I better go." He kissed the top of my head then ran out the door.

I picked up the phone and called Marlee. "Marlee I need you upstairs." Marlee was in my room within a minute.

"Hi. What do you need?" Marlee asked?

"Advice." I replied
"Oh yay!" Marlee says. "What do you need?"
"Well, I have to tell Maxon something. Something you can't know yet, but he needs to know. How do I tell him?"
"Just do it." Marlee says. "Whatever it is he will be happy for you."
"Thanks Marlee." I hugged her "I'm going to call him right now.
I knew Maxon was in a meeting but I just had to call him. I knew what room the meeting was in so I just called there.
"Hello, can I speak to Maxon?" I said to whoever answered the phone.
"He is in a meeting." The man replied
"Yes I know, but it's importent."
"Fine." The man put me on hold and I waited for Maxon.
All of a sudden I heard his voice. "Hey America." He said "are you ok?"
"Yes." I replied. "I just need you upstairs."
"Ok I'll be right up."
Maxon walked upstairs. His hair was a mess and he had taken off his suit jacket.
"Hey are you alright?" He asked
"Yes, there is just something I need to tell you." I stared sweating.
"Maxon I'm pregnant."
"What?" He asked.
"I'm pregnant." I repeated.
He came and lifted me up.
"We're going to be parents?" He asked
I nodded
He put me down
"You know what?" He said
"What?" I replied
"That meeting is killing me. What do you stay we just hang around here and watch some movies?"
I nodded.
We did that for the rest of the day. Then we fell asleep.
