"America, I called us up some breakfast." Maxon whispered in my ear, waking me up

"What time is it?"

"It is ten thirty-nine."

"Much better." I reached out put my hands on either side of his face and pulled him into a kiss "Can we eat outside?"

"It's cold out Ames." I shifted over and he sat on the edge of the bed and gently pushed a piece of hair from my face

"We can bring a blanket"

"Fine. I'll be right back, I'm going to get a sweatshirt." he got up

"Hold on. You own a sweatshirt?"

"One or two, yeah. I rarely get to wear them though, because if the press or anyone like that saw me it would be unprofessional."

"Understood." He left to go to his room and I pulled the blanket from the bed and ran out to the balcony. Maxon was right, it was cold. So I just plopped myself on a chair, wrapped the blanket tightly around me and waited for him.

Maxon came out in a sweatshirt and wall rolling the cart of food. As soon as he sat down he revealed a plate of strawberry tarts from behind the food tower. I gasped

"That's the reaction I was hoping for." He chuckled and handed me the plate, I took a huge bite of one

"I think I love strawberry tarts more than I love you." I said with my mouth full

"America! One: ouch, that hurt. Two: Manners, you're the future princess after all" He joked. I swatted at his arm

"I'm sorry, prince Maxon." I mocked

"That's me." He smirked.

After a few moments he spoke again,

"How do you feel about this?"

"Breakfast? Amazing." I took another bite of my food

"No, Ames, us being engaged. Living like this. Being the center of attention."

I swallowed the food in my mouth "Whoa. One at a time. Us being engaged: overjoyed. Living like this: I'll get used to it. The attention: as long as you're next to me I'll be fine."

He took the plate from me and placed it next to him. He took my hands in his and looked into my eyes "You never have to worry about being alone, I'll be with you no matter what." He kissed my hand then gave me my plate back

"You're the greatest" I told him

"I try" He took one of the strawberry tarts from the plate and took a bite

"Hey! What do you think you're doing?"

"Eating a strawberry tart?"

"You should know by now to not mess with my tarts."

"I'm sorry." he kissed my cheek

"I don't forgive you."

"Aww. Please America?" He pouted. I shook my head and finished my strawberry tart. "Fine. wherever you're ready." He accepted

I quickly turned around and kissed him

"What! You confuse me so much."

"I know." I shrugged and started eating another tart

"Oh America, you are going to keep me on my toes." He wrapped his arms around me and kissed me on the top of my head

"Yup" I assured him

"I'm going to have a rough life."

"I'll go easy on you." I gave him a quick kiss "Maybe."

"America!"

"I love you."

"Mhmm"
