Maxon puts his arm around me as we walk through the gardens. Out of the corner of me eye, I see Celeste, spying on us. Ugh, that witch. I pretend I don't notice her. Maxon let's go of me and walks over to a rose bush. He looks around, before plucking off a full red rose. " For my America." He says, before giving me the rose. I blush and accept the rose. Huh. That's weird. That never happens. Ouch! A thorn punctures my skin and a drop of blood comes seeping out. Apparently, Maxon notices. " Oh my! I'm so sorry! Let me see." He grabs my hand, and I pull it back. " It's fine! Maxon I'm not like those other girls! I will survive!" I say. "Are you sure?" Maxon asks. " Maxon," I continue," I'll survive." He grabs my hands and puts them in his. " Are you still going to accept the rose?" He asks, and puts the rose in my hair. " Of course." I say. And we keep walking through the garden.
