Chapter 3:

The doctors rushed into the room. "What's wrong?" The doctor asked, catching his breath from running so fast. I could only point at Maxon. Sighing, the doctor prepared the speech that he would be fine, but I found my voice before he started. "He doesn't remember." I said, choking back tears, "He doesn't remember me at all." And just like that, I was ushered out of the room.

I had been waiting for a little before the doctor came out. "Maxon was injected with a drug from the rebels that makes him temporarily forget anything that has happened over the last 1 to 4 years. Normally, this would be gone in a day or two but it seems that he has been injected several times, thus making his memory not retrievable for the next month or so. Even though he is sure of a full and complete comeback, it may take a while. You may want to start by introducing yourself again."

I reluctantly got up, not wanting to see a sight that made me break down in tears. Apparently, the Selection was not important enough for him to remember right now, since they have tested many names from then. I took one glance at his confused face ad the tears threatened to spill over again. "Maxon." I said, getting his attention. "Remember me, your wife?" I asked meekly. A look of realization crossed his face. "Kriss." He breathed. I ran before he finished, the small streams of tears now rivers.


*one month later*

"Maxon, we need to go to a meeting." I said, moving him down the hallway slowly. "I know America." He snapped. "You know, father was right about you. You never were fit to be queen. You are just going to destroy the country. My country. Now leave my side, before I eliminate you from the Selection. " Maxon stormed off, leaving me behind, staring.

There was a huge bang in the other room. I knew it was just Maxon getting his memories back. Every time one returned, headaches occurred and getting upset and in pain, Maxon started throw things. I made my way off the bed slowly, my swollen belly with my baby slowing me down. Ever since this happened more frequently, I moved into an adjacent room not wanting to get injured. This happened almost every night and I knew he had almost retrieved every memory. He finally remembered Damien and Wyatt yesterday. I made my way over to out rom and knocked on the door.

Maxon did not open the door, so I opened it. I found him panting, one fist against the wall bleeding. "Maxon." I said and that was all it took. "Get out." He roared, making his way towards me. "Get out America." I stood there in shock. "Stop being like you father." I said, retreating slowly. Maxon was now upon me. "I am not my father, now get out." he screamed. I was not ready for what happened next. As soon as his hand connected with my face, leaving a stinging sensation, the ters poured out. "Yes you are Maxon." I screamed. "You are just like your father." And with that, I ran out.

Maxon wasn't with me when I had our daughter the next week. He was with a therapist to see how his recovery was going. He was so close last week. I held Celine Rose Shreave in my arms, shaking with excitement. I shook even more when Maxon came in. The therapist followed behind him. "He is fine. He remembers now." He informed me before leaving. And now I was shaking even more.

"America." Maxon said softly, leaning in for a kiss. I moved away out of habit, flinching. Worry consumed Maxon's face. "What's wrong darling?" He took a closer look at my face that still was red from last night when he slapped me out of pain. I made the mistake last night to be in the same room as him. "You are not wearing blush are you?" Maxon asked, finally getting why I was afraid. I nodded no and Maxon sat next to my side and embraced me in an instant. "I am so sorry America. I am so sorry." He said, starting to cry ino my shoulder, letting the king mask go. I gave him a kiss on the head. And for the first time in awhile, I felt safe with him around.


Maxon was at meetings all day, leaving me alone with Celine who had just settled down for a nap which gave me time to do what I wanted. So of course I went to my music room and sat down at the piano. I looked down at the keys before looking at my journal which I had gotten from the wall. Slowly and softly I started singing a song that I made when Maxon was sick. The words had encompassed every feeling that I had and I soon left this world and entered my own.

"Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave?
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?
But watching you stand alone,
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow.

One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

One step closer
One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more"

I looked up from the piano to find Wyatt, Damien and Adrianna who was holding Celine watch me. "That was amazing." Adrianna said, handing over her baby sister. "Can you teach me?" she asked and I smiled. "Of course." I replied and Adrianna sat on the piano bench. Wyatt and Damien surrounded the grand piano, mesmerized. I laughed when Damien saw the hammers and his face lit up with glee. I was so happy in act that I never saw Maxon standing in the doorway. Watching.

So the song was A Thousand Years by Christina Perri if you wanted to listen to it and the song was recommended by PEETAMELLARKLOVER123. I thought the song was perfect and thank you for recommending it. I never would have thought about using it if it wasn't for you and it just completes the chapter. Please review and follow guys. Can we try to get to 25 by the 6 or 7 chapter?
