After dinner, we all head off to the report studio (which is in the studio of the palace of course). The report goes okay. We had to announce the death of Amberly and Clarkson -that part sucked. The next morning, Maxon is discussing something with Will and Rosemary. Daniella is well I don't know where. Delilah, Ben, Cami, and I go out to the gardens. Cami gets called by Daniella for I don't know what. Delilah, Ben, and I talk for a while. (Oh okay so Delilah has gray eyes and brown hair. Cami has green eyes and blonde hair. Ben has gray eyes and blonde hair. Will has blonde hair and green eyes. Rosemary has brown hair and green eyes. Daniella has grey hair and green eyes. Ben is quite muscular and tall but he isn't super bulky if that makes sense. Cami is skinny and tall for her age. Delilah is skinny and tall with the posture of a true queen. Rosemary is a little thick but not too bad. Will is strong and tall.)
My maids dressed me in a beautiful dark blue, empire waist, floor-length dress. Delilah decides to go read a book so she goes inside. Ben and I decide to walk around the garden. We stop at a bench to relax for a little while. "So how's Maxon?" Ben asks. "He's doing okay, " I shrug. "He hasn't completely accepted that they are gone, " I continue. He nods. "So is Ben short for something?" I ask. "Yeah it's short for Benjamin, " he says. "Nice, " I say. "Thanks, " he says. He stares deep into my eyes. I stare into his not even trying. He kisses me. When he stops I put a hand to my lips and stare at the ground. I then look up to him. "Why did you do that?" I ask. "I'm sorry America. I don't- I don't know I just-" he stops. " It's fine, " I say getting up. "America do you really love him?" he asks getting up as well. "yes, " I whisper. "Do you have feelings for me?" he asks. "I don't know, " I say. "Do you have feelings for me?" I ask. "Well I-I didn't think I did but then we had a moment and then we kissed, " he stutters. I nod. "I should go check on Maxon, " I say walking away. He nods. I walk up to Maxon's office. "Hey, " I say. "Hey, " he responds turning to me. "How is it going?" I ask. "I just finished, " he says. "Maxon there is something I need to tell you, " I say nervously. " What's wrong?" he asks skeptically. "Ben kissed me, "I blurt out. "You what!" he exclaims. "I'm sorry Maxon. I asked him why and he said he didn't know it just seemed like we were having a moment. I asked if he had feelings for me and he said he didn't he just got caught up in the moment, " I confess. "Do you have feelings for him?" Maxon asks. "No I don't think so, " I say. "Think so or know so?" he asks. "Well I knew u didn't until that moment but that's all it was a moment so no I don't have feelings for him. I love you, " I spill. He nods seeming a little hurt. "I'm so sorry, " Maxon I say beginning to cry. "Are you sure you don't have feelings for him?" he asks. "Yes, " I cry. He nods. "Come here, " he says opening his arms. I walk over to him and he hugs me. "I forgive you, darling, " he says. I'm still crying. He pulls back and wipes my tears and kisses me. Wow, he took that well. I think that he either doesn't have the strength to fight with me since his parents died or he just solely believes me since I've never shown any interest in Ben. Tomorrow is his parent's funeral so well I don't know.
