I woke up to the light hitting my eyes making me blink several times. I yawned and I heard a soft chuckle next to me.

"Good morning sleeping beauty" Maxon said.

I looked at him head to toe. He was wearing causal. He never wears causal.

"Oh good morning to you too. Are you going somewhere?" I asked

"Yes, I have to show you something. Get dressed. I have already called your maids"

With that he left and a few moments later my maids burst into the room with a box.

"Prince Maxon requested us to let you wear this outfit Lady America" Lucy asked.

"Okay but please don't use titles it's just us. Lucy?" I said.

"Yes ….America" she said unnervingly as if she was afraid someone would hear her.

"Can I talk to you in private in the bathroom for a minute?" I

She followed me quietly towards the bathroom and closed the door behind her.

"Lucy by any chance do you like someone like in the palace? It's okay if you don't want to tell me." I said.

"Um…. Well there is this one guard he is sometimes stationed at your door. His name is …. Officer Leger" Lucy shyly brushed.

A grin went smack across my face. Finally Aspen can have a chance at love again. He deserves that after I can't love him like that anymore. Lucy was only a year younger than me so she is perfect with Aspen.

"Miss, we must get you ready" Lucy retorted.

We quickly shuffled and my maids showed me what I was going to wear. It was a silver, sparkly long sleeve shirt that showed off one of my shoulders with crème colored pants and black flats. I quickly got changed and found a note on my desk. It said:

"My Dear,

Once you are done go to my room and show the seal to the guards. They will let you in with further notice.

Yours Truly, Maxon"

I did as Maxon said and he pulled me into the room the minute he saw me enter. I felt his lips work against mine and he pulled away reluctantly. He pulled something from his desk and slid it behind my ears. I realized I was wearing sunglasses and Maxon was too.

"Maxon where are we going too?" I asked.

"Look you can't tell anyone. Okay? I believe you about the whole caste system thing but we have to get proof for my father."

"Wait so we are going to go outside the palace?!" I exclaimed.

"Shh. Yes we are but secretly. Follow me and do everything I say."Maxon took his camera and opened the door adjoined to the princess's suite.

The princess's suite had another door camouflaged onto the wall. Maxon opened the door for me to go in and followed me in closing the door slowly. I followed him until he opened a second door revealing a lot of sunshine it blinded me for a few seconds to fully see. We were surrounded by shops and plazas.

"Maxon, not that I don't like you taking me here but why are we here?" I questioned.

" You said on the first day the palace was a cage so I figured you would like it and like I said earlier I have to get proof for my father about the lower castes" he said kissing my cheek.

An hour later of walking and talking, we reached the suburbs of Los Angeles where a lot of the lower castes lived. We went door to door and talked to each family about their hardships and planned to meet up next week in the town square where we would hopefully create plans for them to have more shelter, water, and electricity. Fortunately, for us they didn't recognize us and they thought we were just some caring twos or threes. At the end of the day we were worn out and we went in our secret hide out. We reached Maxon's room and found it trashed there must have been a rebel attack. I helped clean up and the room was spotless when we were done. I turned to leave but Maxon kissed me hard and our lips were moving nsync. We broke with a lingering kiss.

"Goodnight Maxon" I breathed.

"Sleep well America" He said as he kissed me swiftly on the forehead.
