(Maxon's POV)

Chapter 3

I sat uncomfortably in my seat next to my mom as the faces had crossed the screen. One caught my eye

in-particularly one of the girls from 5. She had red hair and bright green eyes and a perfect smile crossed her mouth. I couldn't help but grin when her picture crossed the screen, I had read through every girls report with stupid questions like, do you play any instruments, do you speak any foreign languages, what is your eye color?

And things like that.

Hers was fanominal she spoke 3 languages and played almost every instrument possible. When she was picked I couldn't help but grin she was beautiful. What was her name?

America.

I couldn't sit vey still through the rest of it though I was nervous, what if I eliminated the best person for the crown first? I shifted my weight and tried to keep a smile on my face, but it didn't work everyone knew I was nervous. I felt beams of sweat run down my temples. I had an urge to wipe them off, but I denied it. I sat still as my father announced the rest of the selected. Finally the report ended and I could calm down.

My mom, the queen, walked over to me and laid a hand on my back rubbing it slowly. "I know your nervous Maxon, but it will be okay your opinion is the one that counts." she said tenderly with a smile. I looked up and couldn't help but smile. she was right.

I stood up and walked by the guards and they followed us on the way out. we went back to the castle, and into the main room where I could sit and eat my dinner peacefully. I sat down as the chefs came in. I smiled thanking them. they lifted the lid and a steamy aroma filled the air, steak. I took in the smell and the peace and quiet because soon I was going to have 35 girls fighting for the crown, and me. my only worry is not being able to figure out which. Who is in it for me and who is in it for the crown. I let out a sigh. why are girls so... so.... Complicated! I let out a frustrated grunt. Then my mom came in carrying a stack of papers. Oh joy more paper work. I though.

"Maxon sweetie here are the profiles of the 35 girls who will be coming to the selection, it would help you a lot if you skimmed them over and got a feel for them." she said graciously. I nodded. she laid down the papers in front of me and flipped through very quickly. Then my eyes fell on one of them.

America Singer.

It said at the top I looked down at her picture again. I couldn't get over her beauty, I hope she was as beautiful on the inside as she was on the outside, but that seemed near to impossible. I read more about her. Wow! Was all I could think. Even if she is a 5 she would make a fine queen. I don't care about the castes anyway as long as the girl loves me for me and I love her for being her that's all I want. I pushed away the pile and folded America Singers picture and slipped it into my pocket then returned my attention to my steak.

After dinner I hurried up to my room on the third floor. I quickly reached into my pocket and pulled out America Singer profile, she could play almost every instrument perfectly, she had 4 siblings, red hair, green eyes, immense beauty, a happy up beat ginger is what I got from the picture. I let out a sigh, she would be a fine queen I folded up her picture and slipped it back into my pocket, then laid down in my bed, a fine queen I thought to myself. Then I let exhaustion take over me and I fell asleep.
