I was wandering towards my room the next day. Since I passed the surgery and regained my memory (expect for him) I was sent back to my room. I was greeted by Aspen giving a small crooked smile. Once I was in the room Kriss and Elise were asking me what happened. I told them I was in the gardens when I sniffed a rose and my allergies acted up and I was sent into a coma and passed the surgery. After I did told them what happened, Celeste came in slowly closing the door. She took a deep breath.
"I know you might not believe I'm saying but I want to apologize to all of you." Celeste said. "Kriss, I'm sorry I ruin your dress at your birthday ball. Elise, I'm sorry I doubted and hit you a few weeks ago. America, I'm truly sorry that I called you a slut and many other things I do not want to repeat. I was jealous of you guys because Maxon hasn't been talking to me for a few weeks."
We were all shocked and Kriss was the first one to break the silence.
"Apology accepted from all of us." she said glance at both of us." You also have to apologize to you maid that you hit"
"And Maxon" Elise piped up.
"I already have. Are you sure you forgive me after everything I've done" Celeste questioned.
She looked at Kriss and she nodded then Elise and she repeated the gesture. She finally looked at me and hesitantly I nodded. She wrapped us into a group hug.
"You guys are awesome!" Celeste said.
Just then Prince Maxon entered the room a worried look on his face he softened as soon as he saw us.
"What's wrong Maxon?" Kriss asked.
"I couldn't find any of you so I thought some rebel got all of you." He calmed down an cleared his throat. "May I speak to America alone?"
They left and Kriss and Celeste both gave me secret winks. Neither of them knew that I didn't know him. He sat on the bed and I sat on the chair and he started explaining everything about 'us'. When he finished it got very late so he opened the door but then he turned back as kissed me. The taste of his lips felt familiar, safe, and secure. I guess that's why I kissed him back. He left and I remember everything about him this time. It's like his lips have some kind of magic power. Right when I was going to tell him that the rebel alarm blared. I opened the door only to find a rebel aiming at the backside of Maxon's head. I screamed and ran as quick as I could and pushed Maxon down so neither of us would get shot. The rebel sneered and ran the other way. We both got up and ran towards the main safe room. The door got pushed open I pushed Maxon in and a guard stopped me to come in and whispered
"The King would like to speak to you Lady America."
I looked back at Maxon and he had a quizzed look on his face. I bit my lip and then mouthed the 3 words I've wanted to say for a long time "I love you".
I followed the guard towards the King's office. He opened the door and the King greeted me.
"Sit down and let me explain myself" he said. "First, this is not a real rebel attack it is just a decoy. Second of all, I have an offering that I'm pretty sure that you will agree on."
"I don't want to agree on anything you say!" I spat out.
"Oh but it will because it involves Maxon and your family."
I got quiet.
"I thought you be silenced after that. If you become a southern rebel I will spare your family and Maxon from any harm. You will have a new name and hairstyle and every one will think that ;Poor America Singer disappeared and never came back;"
"What do you mean spare Maxon and my family?" I questioned.
"The rebels were thinking of killing them off so you will become more determined to remove the caste system. You will be with the rebels but secretly give us information on their plots and ploys so we can stop them."
I stood thinking in silence and the more I thought about it, it seemed like a good deal. My family and Maxon would be safe even if it means losing them and it would save many lives if we stopped the rebels attacks. I hesitated but then answered.
"Do you swear on your life that you will protect them?" I said firmly.
"Yes and if you choose to reveal yourself, this, ( he brought out a whip from his desk ) and much more will happen to you and the ones you love."
One rebellious tear fell down my cheek but no more came down.
"Yes "I whispered in defeat.
"Good, follow me." He said as he led me into another room connected to his office.
Lucy was there shaking. I think she knew if she told anyone about this she you be whipped, canned, or hanged.
"She will be cutting your hair. Good bye America" he left.
After sitting there in the middle of the room where Lucy cut my hair she gave me a mirror. My hair was curly , and blonde with a brown ombre and black streaks (in the blonde part of my hair.) Lucy broke into tears.
"I will miss you." She cried.
"I will too. Tell everyone that before 'this rebel kidnapped me' that you saw me and tell Maxon and my family that I love them especially Maxon." I asked.
"Of course. Anything from you." Lucy's smile brightened.
Part of me want to know about what will happen to Aspen and if he will ever date Lucy. I knew now that tomorrow I would no longer be America Singer.
I would be Kirsten Collardo.
