America and Aspen?

*Gasp*

America's POV...
So it's been a little over a week since we have seen the Arts family. I miss them dearly, but Maxon and I have been trying to spend a lot more time with each other again. The Arts are going to come over later. Maxon and I are back to our version of normal and I couldn't be happier about that. I'm still thinking about when Hunter said he has feelings for me. I quickly push that thought out of my head because whatever I do feel for Hunter is not nearly what I feel for Maxon. I pick out a beautiful dress my maids made me.

It's a backless dress so I have to either wear a jacket or cape so they don't see my caning marks. Maxon comes into my room to tell me that they are here. I run out of my room to see them. Then I remember a moment later have to be a lady so I slow to a walk with Maxon. "Go, " Maxon says. I look at him and he nods his head. I run towards the entrance to the palace and there they are. Isabelle and Gigi run to me for a hug. "I've missed you guys, " I breathe. "And we've missed you, " Gigi says. "How are you and Maxon?" Isabelle asks in a hushed tone. "Great, " I say. She smiles. I tuck a strand of my hair behind my ear and go over to Ben, Vera, and Hunter. Vera and Ben hug me and then Hunter. The kids are going to spend a night here but their parents wanted some downtime. Gigi and Isabelle race to their rooms. Hunter and Maxon are talking. I start walking up to the girls' rooms to make sure they get settled in okay when Hunter asks, "America what happened to your back?" I whip my head around and share a scared glance with Maxon. "America? Maxon?" Hunter calls out. Maxon nods his head as if we should tell him. "Maxon I can't, " I say. "We have to, " Maxon replies. Hunter looks confused yet frightened. I can't believe I forgot the cape. "We need to go somewhere a little more private, " Maxon instructs. We go to my bedroom to talk Hunter goes in first and I pull Maxon out into the hall. "Maxon I'm so sorry. We both were meant to take this to our graves and I screwed up I'm sorry, " I cry. "Darling it's okay. I was foolish to think that we could keep it a secret, " he says. We walk in and explain all the caning stuff to him. "Hunter this goes to your grave. You do not tell anyone. My mother doesn't even know, " Maxon instructs. "Ok I promise won't tell anyone, " Hunter says. We walk down the hall when the rebel alarm goes off. I see a guard down the hall get shot. No, it's Carter! "To the safe room, " Maxon says. I look at him and shake my head. I pull a gun off my ankle strap and I'm about to run down the hall when Hunter grabs my arm. "America you can't you-" he starts. "He has a son Hunter, " I cut him off. "Promise me one thing, " I say. "Anything, " Hunter promises. "Go to the safe room without me, " I say. He looks terrified and they watch me run to Carter. I start shooting at any rebels I see. I kneel to Carter. "Carter, how are you?" I ask. He can barely keep his eyes open. I pick him up and run to the safe room with him. I bring him down there for the doctor to help. Isabelle and Gigi aren't down here! Hunter looks scared. I lost both of my heels at some point. I run back up the stairs and out of the safe room to find them. I start to run to their rooms and see them in the hallway. I'm between some rebels and them I shoot them down. A bullet grazed my neck and another grazed my arm. Do not go into a spell America. I pick up Gigi since she's still so young she can't run as fast. I simply bark orders to Isabelle. We finally get to safe room entrance. We rush down the stairs and secure the door. Hunter looks relieved. I put Gigi down. Isabelle and Gigi end up falling asleep. We got word that Amberly is in a different safe room. I'm shaking like crazy. Carter is going to fine the doctor says. I then see the blood on my arm. There is no fighting it this time. I go into a spell. I see Kota.
Maxon's POV...
I look over at America. She's in a ball on the floor. Another spell. I look at Hunter who looks frightened. "Hey this is another secret that does to your grave, " I command. He nods. We both hurry over to her and kneel in front of her. "America it's okay. Everything is okay. You are fine. I'm fine. I need you to open your eyes, " I speak softly. I take her hands in mine. "America opens your eyes, " I say. She opens her eyes and once she sees me she stops shaking. Then she looks up at Hunter. She's horrified. I help her into a chair and we all sit down. " It's been happening ever since one of the rebel attacks where I was sure I was going to be dead. I also have visions of when my brother, Kota, shot me in the neck and my heart stopped but I came back. It was a miracle. It's been a while since I've had one so I think eventually they won't happen anymore, " America explains. "Hunter if you are with her when this happens and I am not around tell someone to come to get me if possible like if I'm just not in the room kinda thing. Call me if she's at your house and I'm not and it happens I'll come running but you need to help her in the same way I just did okay?" I say. "Got it, " Hunter says.
