Celeste P.O.V
I was walking down the hall marveling the palace one last time before Maxon would send me home. I had asked to be sent home, to get away from all of this. My parents would be furious at me but America taught me how to keep my head held high even in the worst situations. Speaking of America, we had became best friends after I apologized for my mistakes, I never realized how special America was and how important it was for her to win. I wanted to help her as much as I can, so I did just that when she came bawling to me. I never seen her this sad.
"Oh, America, I whispered to myself, what did you do this time?"
I brought her in to my room and she told me everything. Now of course I always knew this, for I had seen her with the guard. I got her ready and walked out of my room closing the door behind me.
I walked toward the garden, straight to Maxon. I took a deep breath and cleared my throat to get his attention.
"Hello your majesty." I said curtsying
"Hello Lady Celeste, what brings you out here?" Maxon replied
"I actually want to talk to you." I replied
"Well I have a few min." he said looking at his watch."So what do you need? Did you change your mind about leaving, because I would love if you stayed? I have already decided who to eliminate and I can assure you that it is not you, my dear." He said bitterly
"No, no. I still am leaving but I want to talk about America." I said while holding my breath
I saw him visibly stiffing.
"What do you want to know about Lady America? I assure you that she is nothing special and means nothing to me." he said grimily
"First of all I know you are lying and that you really do love her. Anyways look, I know what happened with you two. America told me. You need to listen to her if you want to understand, you walking away would do nothing. Please, I am begging you to listen to her, to understand her. Imagine what she feels li-"
"Enough! I don't care what is wrong with her, tomorrow she will be sent home and I will never have to see her. He yelled, now good day Lady Celeste" With that he turned on his heels and stormed back in to the palace.
I to headed back to the room America was in, feeling defeated and guilty for letting America down.
