Maxon's POV
I can't believe she did that. She told me she wanted to be single and yet what does she go out doing? She went back to that cheating scumbag Ryan. We haven't talked since I left her house a few months ago. I haven't thought of anything but her.

Seeing her in the news with him makes me so frustrated. I wish I could have gone back and stayed that night. I guess now I know what it's like to see someone you love make a stupid choice and you have to live without them. Which is why I'm driving to her house. I need to see her, talk to her, touch her. Just something.

I pull up to America's house and by the looks of it I can tell that Ryan isn't here. I go up to her door and knock, there's nothing for  a moment and then she opens up. "Maxon, you shouldn't be here" she says. I'm not going to back down this time. "May I come in? Please" she considered slamming the door in my face I could tell by her look but she just opened the door wider.

"Maxon why did you come?" "I came because I'm not going to let you get yourself heartbroken again" I told her. "What do you mean? Me and Ryan are fine" she tried to reassure me. I know otherwise. "No you're not, America I've seen the interviews when they talk about him. You don't show any emotion. Even now that I'm talking to you about him, you're not showing any emotion" she stayed looking at me stone faced.

"Maybe you're right but" "exactly I'm right, so why don't you just save yourself the heartbreak and leave him" "Maxon I'm not going to break up with him because you want me to" I knew this was never going to work. "I'm sorry, I can't change your mind". America got up and walked over to me. "It's okay, but how about we fix this problem" she said. "How? You've already made your decision" she pulled me closer to her and said "but we haven't yet"

She grabbed my face and kissed me. I pulled back slowly and looked at her. She tilted her head towards the left and with a single nod of my head, she lead me towards her bedroom and closed the door.
