Second chance

Chapter 7

Maxon's POV:
-wedding day-

This is it! Finally, I get to marry the love of my life. It took us a while to get to this point, 3 months ago I wasn't sure if she loved me back, but this time I'm sure if it. America has been talking about the wedding for weeks. She planned it all. I'm so excited to see what she's planned! There are 2 hours until the weddings and I'm a nervous reck. I don't know why though, I'm marrying the love of my life and making her mine. I'm putting on my tie when my mom knocks on the door. "Hey son." She said walking in not waiting for me to answer. "Hey mom." I said trying not to sound nervous.
"Are you nervous?"
"How could you tell?" She laughs,
"I'm your mother, I can tell." This time I laugh.
"Do you want some advice?" She asks
"Yes please!"
"Don't over think it, everyone overthinks things on their wedding day but it turns out to be the best day of your life."
All I do is smile, that's all I can do. I'm so nervous but so happy.
"Maxon..." she says putting a hand on my shoulder. "Your marrying America, so trust me you don't have to worry, you love her and she loves you. This is going to be the best day of your life." She says looking more happy than I am.
"Mom can I ask you something?"
"Of course!"
"Was America your favorite?"
"Well...yes-"
"I knew it!" We both laugh. I love talking with my mom, she's my safe place, I can just ramble about things and she wouldn't care, she will talk with me for hours making sure I have all my questions answered, she is such a great mom!
"So, do you think I'll be getting any grandkids soon?" She asked with raised eyebrows. I laugh as my face turns red. "Mom! We aren't even married yet!"
"Well I'll leave you to it! Your going to make one girl very happy today." She says while pulling me in for a hug.
"I plan on making her happy everyday!" We both smile as she walks out the door. I'm not as nervous now. I take a few deep breaths before finishing getting ready for the best day of my life.

America's POV:

"Are you exited?" Marlee asks me as I look in the mirror at my beautiful wedding dress.
"More than ever!" I say smiling so big.
"Just wait until tonight." She says with a devilish smirk.
"Marlee!" I yell playfully smacking her, she just laughs.
"I'll let you finish getting ready. I have to go make sure everything for the reception is ready." She says making her way to the door.
"Thanks so much Marlee!" She nods and leave the room. I can't believe it! Only 1 hour until I become America Schreave. I'm so excited but so nervous. What if I mess up my vows, what if I freeze and don't say "I do," what if Maxon doesn't really want to marry me. Wait no! He does! He wants to me marry me! I can't doubt it. Just then I hear a whistle. I turn my head around to see Aspen standing by the door. "What are you doing?" I asked
"I came to get you." He said with a smile.
"Are you sure your not upset about today?"
"America, we've been over this. I have Lucy, you have Maxon, the universe just wanted us to  be friends." He says with a smile.
"Thanks so much Aspen! For everything! Your such a great friend!" I hug him and he leads me down the stairs by the door to the garden. I get more and more nervous every step I take to get to the door. "10 minutes!" May yells jumping up and down.
"I know!" I said trying not to sound nervous.
"Ames, don't be nervous!" She says still jumping up and down.
"I'm trying...I'm really excited but also nervous." I explain to her.
I hear the music and my bridesmaids walk out, not even a minute later the music changes and the big oak doors open. I link my arm with Aspen's and start walking down the isle.

I tried to make this a good chapter. I promise other chapters will be better. Thanks for all the views.
