Ch.6
Maxon POV:
As I storm out of the room and walk down the hallway to the front desk I regret even telling America anything. I knew it was a bad idea from the look on her face when I first told her I even had a daughter. When I get to the front desk I try to calm down before I speak. "I'm sorry, I have something else I have to deal with so I can no longer tend to the patient in room 3E," I say to the woman I talked to on the phone.
"Um, okay," she replies with a confused look on her face. I then walk away, still burning with anger. How dare America judge me like that! I was being honest when I told her how much I regretted what happened. And to think...I thought that maybe we could begin to be friends again.
America POV:
It turns out I hit my head at little harder than I thought I did. They brought me to a room where I would be spending my night and they could watch me to make sure I didn't get any worse. None of the doctor's asked me why I my face was all red and tear-stained.
As hard as try I can't stop thinking about Maxon. I don't know what got into me. Maxon and I both thought we should split up ten years ago... Of course after we broke up he would go and date another girl. He wasn't mine anymore...
Maxon POV:
The next day
"Maxon?" Marlee says when I pick up the phone.
"Yes, Marlee?" I ask suspiciously.
"Carter and I are having an end-of-summer barbeque tonight and I expect you to be there," she tells me in a stern voice.
"Okay, okay! What time? It may be a Saturday be I'm busier than you think,"
"Four,"
"Okay, I'll be there, bye," I say.
"Bye," Marlee says before hanging up. Shit, of course America will be there, I say to myself. I sigh and make my way into my office.
FOUR HOURS LATER (sorry about the time skips)
As I pull into Marlee and Carter's driveway I am overwhelmed. I think they invited the whole neighborhood. After what seems like forever I finally decide to park a few houses down the street because their driveway and the spots on the curb are all filled. I get out of my car and make my way down the sidewalk. From this far away I swear I can hear Carter's laugh coming from their backyard.
When I go to knock on the front door I see that there is a piece of paper taped it it saying, "THE PARTY IS OUT BACK. GO THROUGH THE GATE." "Well then," I say under my breath. They weren't lying when they said the party was outback. There are people everywhere.
"MAXON!" I hear Carter yell. I then walk over to him.
America POV:
"America, are you okay?" Marlee asks me.
"Wha- Oh, yeah," I say, trying to sound like I'm listening. I just noticed Maxon talking with Carter.
"You know you didn't have to come, you do have a minor concussion."
"I'm fine. Hey, Marlee, can we talk inside for a minute?"
"Of course," she replies, leading me inside.
"Something happened last night..."
"What happened, America?"
"As you know I hit my head and my mom made me got to the E.R. to make sure nothing serious was wrong." She nods her head. "Well, I didn't know Maxon worked there and what do you know, he walks in and was going to make sure I was okay. He said he would have to order a CT scan and would have to stay with me until it was ready to make sure nothing happened to me. I thought in the meantime he could tell me what he has been up to the last decade, and he did. I had to find out that he got Kriss pregnant right after we split up and I freaked. I went all off on him and I made him angry too. Then he walked out of the room and didn't come back," I say. Marlee then gets a sad look in her eyes. "Marlee?"
"America, I knew I should have told you that he had a daughter when you came over the other day... I just didn't know how," she says hanging her head low.
"No, no! Marlee it's not your fault. If I was going to hear it from anyone it was best that it was Maxon. But I need to apologize to him, I just don't know how and I doubt he will want to talk to me," I say.
"The best thing to do would be to ask if you guys could talk but if he says no you will just have to respect that. I'm sure if he says no that someday soon he will forgive you."
"Okay, thanks, Marlee," I say, hugging her.
"Hey, that's what I'm here for," she says giving me a smile.
Okay, so I tried to give the answers to some questions that were asked in the last chapter (thank you selectioner2014:)
I am working on chapter seven as of now so I hope to finish that soon.
