America POV
Maxon and I walked hand and hand down the aisle. We got into the limo and Maxon pulled me close. "I love you America Schreave"
"I love you too Maxon" I said smiling at my new name.
"I wish my mom was here to see us get married. She always hoped I pick you. She loved you" Maxon told me.
I felt my heart break for Maxon as tears welled up in my eyes. "I know Maxon. I wish she was here too. I loved her like my own mother"
He kissed my forehead. "I'm sorry America. This is supposed to be our wedding day and I ruined it" Maxon said.
I shook my head. "Maxon Calix you didn't ruin our wedding day! I care about you and I absolutely hate seeing you in pain" I said softly.
He kissed my forehead again. "I love you so much"
I cuddled into his chest and let him wrap his arms tightly around me knowing he needed to hold me. "I love you too"
We got the palace and Maxon and I both collected ourselves before heading inside. "Are you okay?" I whispered to Maxon.
He smiled kissing my lips passionately. "I'm more than okay America"
I nodded. "Me too"
We headed inside and the double doors were opened into the Ball Room. The guards all pulled their swords out of their hilts raising them above us so we could walk through them. "Introducing Your Majesties King Maxon and Queen America Schreave" the DJ said.
We both ran through the arch into the reception where we were surrounded by applause. "Would the bride and groom please make their way to the dance floor for their first dance?" the DJ asked. Maxon led me onto the dance floor.
"I should warn you, I am not a good dancer" I said to Maxon.
"I'll never let you fall" Maxon promised. I wrapped my arms around his neck and laid my head on his chest as our song started to play. Maxon and I said like that until the very end of the song when he twirled me safely guiding me back to chest. He placed a sweet kiss on my lips and led me off the dance floor over to the head table.
We heard somebody clinking their glass during dinner and I smiled knowing it was May. Maxon and I leaned across the table and kissed. I finished my dinner and Maxon offered me his hand as the DJ announced we were going to cut our wedding cake.
"Mrs. Schreave do you want to cut our cake?" Maxon asked as we walked over to the cake.
"Only if you help me Mr. Schreave" I replied.
Maxon smiled and wrapped his arms around my waist and we picked up the knife cleanly cutting our cake. We each took a slice and I turned around smacking him in the face with my piece of cake. I started giggling. I stopped giggling when Maxon scooped up his piece of cake and aimed it at me. I tried to wiggle my way out of his arms but he locked me in.
"Stop moving America. I can't hit a moving target" Maxon told me then he hit my jaw with his piece of cake. It was all over my face. I laced my hands through his hair and pulled his face to mine kissing him deeply. When we pulled away we were laughing.
"Come on America we should go get cleaned up" Maxon said taking my hand and leading me from the Ball Room. We went up to my room and closed the door before heading into the bathroom. I quickly washed my face grateful that it didn't get my hair. I finished washing my face and Maxon leaned over the sink trying to get the icing out of his hair.
"How did you not get any in your hair?" Maxon asked still trying to get the icing out of his hair.
I shrugged and threaded my fingers through his hair softly. When I was sure I got it all out Maxon lifted his head from the sink. I handed him one of my towels and he dried off his hair. "We should get back downstairs" I said taking the towel from him when he was done and hanging it up again.
We went back downstairs and Maxon led me over to the dance floor. We danced to a couple songs before Aspen asked me for a dance.
"I'm going to ask May if she would like a dance" Maxon said excusing himself. I slipped my hand into Aspen's and laid my hand on his chest.
"I am really happy you found Lucy" I told him.
He smiled. "Thanks Mer. I think I am going to ask her to marry me soon"
"That's wonderful Aspen. You are exactly who she needs" I said.
He nodded. "America I'm so happy that you found Maxon. I know he loves you more than anything and will treat you like the princess you are"
"Queen" I corrected with a smile. "But thank you Aspen. It really means a lot to me"
He smiled. "I know"
The song ended and Aspen passed me back to Maxon. "I'm going to take off my high heels. My feet are absolutely killing me" I said kicking off my high heels. "I think we need to have one more dance" I decided.
Maxon pulled me close to him wrapping his arms around my waist kissing me passionately. I kissed him back equally passionate. We started to make out but Marlee came up to Maxon and whispered something in his ear. Maxon nodded and Marlee walked away.
"What was that about?" I inquired looking at Maxon.
"Marlee just reminded me of the time" Maxon said. "We need to go"
"We're not leaving for our honeymoon until late tomorrow night" I reminded him.
"I know but I don't want our wedding night to be in the palace and I know you don't either" Maxon said smiling.
I blushed remembering we had our wedding night ahead of us. "Maxon" I said.
"I love seeing you blush" Maxon commented as he led me out to of the Ball Room and outside were a limo was waiting to take us to our wedding night destination.
"Where are we going tonight?" I asked Maxon as we climbed in the limo.
"That my dear is a surprise" He said kissing me.
I smiled. "I still am not your dear"
"We're married now and I still can't call you my dear?"
"No" I said kissing him.
We reached the airport and Maxon got out offering me his hand. I took it and he led me inside and through a set of double doors the guards following behind us. We went past many planes until we reached the end of the room. There was a large jet waiting for us.
"You own a jet?" I asked Maxon in disbelief
"How do you think we got to international affairs?" He asked like it was completely normal to own your own jet. "And it's not mine. It's ours"
"Do you know how to fly it?" I asked.
He nodded. "But I would rather spend time with my beautiful wife so I'm not flying it this time" He said leading me onto the jet. "Do you want to meet the captain?"
I nodded and he led me onto the jet. We walked through a set of double doors into the cockpit. The caption stood up when we entered.
"King Maxon it's a pleasure to see you again" he said to Maxon shaking his hand.
"You as well Jesse" Maxon said.
"America I would like to introduce you to Jesse Nicholas our pilot. Jesse I would like to introduce you to my wife America" Maxon said introducing me to Jesse. Jesse looked to be about thirty or so with dark brown hair and blue eyes.
Jesse smiled. "Nice to meet you Queen America"
"You can call me America. I'm not used to being called Queen America quite yet" I said.
"It's nice to meet you America, King Maxon has told me quite a bit about you. I look forward to flying with you. Is this your first time out of Illea?"
I smiled. "It is."
"Well then please enjoy yourself and let me know if you need anything" Jesse told me.
"Thank you Jesse. It was nice to meet you" I said. Maxon led me into the back of the Jet and he sat down on a couch and pulled me onto his lap threading his fingers through my hair. "I can't believe we're married" I said with a smile.
"You're stuck with me forever and always" Maxon said kissing me softly.
I smiled. "I think I can live with that. I love you Maxon"
"I love you too America. You should get some sleep. You're tired and I promise you, you will not be getting much sleep for the next week" Maxon said with a smirk.
I smirked. "Is that so Mr. Schreave?"
"I think so. We're supposed to produce a heir" Maxon informed me.
"Nice to know you married me because you love me" I said.
Maxon kissed me. "You know I love you America"
"I do. I love you too" I said kissing him back and cuddling into his chest before falling soundly asleep.
A couple hours later Maxon kissed me to wake me up. It took a couple minutes for me to wake up but when I finally did he stopped kissing me.
"Why did you stop kissing me? I was enjoying that" I said.
He smiled. "Don't worry I'm sure we'll make out plenty on our honeymoon but I woke you up because we're here darling"
I lifted my head from his chest and got off him. He reached out to me and interlocked our fingers. He led me off the plane after saying thank you to Jesse who told us to enjoy our night. We walked to a boat and climbed in. Maxon drove us to a house on the beach. It was breathtakingly beautiful. "Maxon this is so beautiful" I said in complete awe.
He smiled and swiftly picked me up carrying me across the threshold. "I love you America Schreave" He murmured placing warm kisses down my neck.
I leaned my head back giving him better access to my neck loving the feeling of his lips on my skin. "I love you too" I whispered before he captured my lips in a passionate kiss that would lead to the rest of our lives.
