The next day

America- POV

I felt Maxon stir beside me and decided to wake up. Unfortunately, that wasn't a good idea and my headaches and dizziness started as well. I sat upright and noticed that the whole bedsheet turned blood red. Maxon got up and noticed it 2 seconds afterward.

"Darling, we need to get you to the doctors, you were bleeding all night". I sat up to respond when a wave of headache came over me.

"Ow", I winced, clutching my head like it was about to burst. My vision blurred a little and I stumbled into Maxon's arms.

"Ok, that's it, we're going to the hospital wing, Ames", he said.

"No, no, this is normal Maxon" I replied, clutching my stomach in pain.

"Fine", he responded. After about 30 minutes, Maxon left the room reluctantly. He had a country to run and he realized that he should probably leave by the time the advisors started a brawl in the meeting room. I went to my room and took a bath and got dressed for the day. Mary brought out a dress that was blue with beautiful flowers on it. The bodice was dark blue, and it flowed down to the floor changing to light blue at the very bottom. It didn't cinch at the waist since my tiny baby bump would show. It made me look fashionable and responsible. Even though we were announcing the pregnancy tonight in the Report, we didn't want the palace staff catching on and telling their families. That would cause rumors that the royal family hid the pregnancy for crazy reasons. The press was crazy sometimes.

Paige did my makeup with a smoky eye and nude lipstick just how I like it. After she was done, Mary and Paige both left my room and I started to head to the Woman's Room. As I was heading down the stairs, Aspen gently pulled me aside into an unknown room.

"Mer, can you help me", he asked nervously, pacing around the room.

"Yeah, sure, with what", I asked cluelessly, ignoring the spiking headache and the hot room making me sweat.

"I want to propose to Lucy", he revealed, stopping to look at me. A wave of happiness rushed over as I headed to hug Aspen.

"That's amazing, Aspen, I'm so happy for you both!" A few seconds later, I remember falling down feeling like my head was being split open, and Aspen yelling "Mer, Mer?"

When I woke up, I was lying down in the hospital wing, with a blurred face above me. It was Maxon, his suit coat was untucked and his hair was ruffled like he had been running his hand through it multiple times. He had a worried look on his face and looked like he'd been crying.

"America, are you ok? Drink this", he said hurriedly, giving me a brown drink that looked like vomit. I sat up and drank it reluctantly, holding my nose as I did.

"What is it", I asked with a disgusted look on my face.

"It's a ginger drink, it'll help with your sickness. Would prefer a pill, your highness", the doctor answered out of nowhere.

"No thanks, 3 pills a day are enough", I answered with a slight chuckle. Maxon had a fake pouty face on, knowing that I was blaming him for making me take 3 pills. His expression changed a couple of minutes later. He looked happy, but I knew he wasn't. I cupped his cheek with one of my hands and reassured him, "I'm fine, this is normal. If you keep on being worried you're going to faint from the stress, and then I'm going to be worried about you. So please, be happy for me, Maxon". I looked straight into his chocolate brown eyes and saw the worry vanish.

I patted the place next to me and he walked around the hospital bed and sat next to me.

"Seriously, you're going to kill yourself worrying about me, Maxon", I muttered, straightening his hair as he sat down. I brushed it into a mohawk, using my hands.

"What did you do with my hair, darling", Maxon asked in a fake agitated voice.

"Look at it yourself", I retorted, handing him a mirror from the table beside me. He chuckled.

"How lucky am I to have an odd wife like you", Maxon stated rhetorically.

"Very lucky Maxon, very," I replied sarcastically. After a few minutes of arguing for the millionth time about if I can leave the hospital wing, Maxon finally agreed to let me go to the Woman's Room if Marlee comes with me.

Marlee and I headed down to the Woman's Room catching up and laughing together.

"Marlee, are you sure you're ok leaving Kile with his nanny to spend the day in the Woman's Room working with me?"

"Sure, spending the day in the Woman's Room brings back a lot of memories. Plus, I'm pretty sure Maxon would kill me if I left your side. We spent the day signing papers, planning my gender reveal party, and occasionally going down to the kitchens when I started to crave something. Marlee offered to go get food for me or have a maid get but I couldn't stay locked up in the Woman's Room all day, no matter how big it was.

Soon, I went to my room to get ready for the report. I was fine with my dress, so Paige just touched up my makeup and Mary did my hair into a curly updo, and my red curls were hanging beautifully. I went down to the Report set and to my surprise, Maxon was already sitting there. He also already drifted aff into wonderland so I decided to scare him. I snuck up behind him, not too close or he'd feel me breathing down his neck.

"BOO!" Maxon looked behind him with the calmest look.

"Kings don't get scared", he said in a mock robot voice. I rolled my eyes, when a Ken yelled we're on in "5, 4, 3, 2..," and the lights on the camera flashed on.

... ... ... ...

Ok, let me explain something. So, originally, I planned to finish this chapter writing on the Report and gender reveal. But, I started writing and somehow I managed to write more than 1,000 words without starting either of those. So, hopefully, I can write about both of them soon. Also, sorry I don't know how but this kinda ended up a filler chapter.
