Hi guys! I know I haven't updated in three days. I haven't had a good idea until I came up with this. Enjoy!
------------------
Maxon POV
I was sitting in one of the plush seats in our private jet, we took off and... ZzzzZzzzZzzzZzzz

America POV
I was sitting I one of the comfy chairs in our private jet. I saw Maxon was asleep within a couple minutes, so I reached down and grabbed my book, The Pain in Our Hearts, out of my purse. When Maxon started to snore, very loudly, I grabbed my iPod and my earbuds, hitting shuffle. Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter and Shawn Mendes blasted out of my earbuds into my ears, blocking the sound of Maxon snoring. I opened my book and began to read.
"Chapter 1
I know some people think of my as sick or disabled. People might think that but I'm just a 15 year old girl who is fighting against the blood Cancer, Leukemia. Since I was diagnosed with Leukemia when I was 10 and a half, my friends and still I go out to malls, bookstores, movie theaters and restaurants. My friends cheer me up when I am down. I don't like to tell people this, but I only a couple people know my two greatest fears.  I fear oblivion and just death in general (the word, other people, myself, animals, etc.)  I go by Claire. I am Mary Claire Samuels. -Kasie E. Browning
Oh my strawberry tarts! This is going to get good and emotional. I thought there was a book kinda similar to this one called, The Fault in Our... something or other a long time ago.  Maxon tussled around a little bit. Then I got back to reading
"Chapter 2
I know I just described my entire life, but then I realized I forgot to tell you the best part of my Cancer filled life, meaning that in the best way possible. Okay, so I was walking around one afternoon and since I have Leukemia I get tired sometimes and I have to sit down. I sat down on someone's bench by their lawn. Then, a really hot guy that I did not know existed in our neighborhood, walked outside of his house and asked if I was okay in a deep sexy voice.  I was totally checking him out when realized I should respond. I couldn't get any words out of my mouth, so I just nodded. He sat down next to me on the bench. He said, " I know something's wrong." I just decided to tell him my Cancer story. He was impressed by how long I've been fighting. As I was finishing, he took off his shoes. I was alarmed, he had prosthetic feet. He began to tell his Cancer story. He was diagnosed with Cancer at 13 and got prosthetic feet at 14. We talked about hobbies and books. Then I said, "Wait, I know your Cancer story, hobbies and favorite books. Yet I don't know your name." He introduced himself as Jaylin Grey and likes to be called Jay. I introduced myself as Mary Claire Samuels and told him I only go by Claire, unless I'm in trouble. We talked until 11:30 sharing secrets, confessions, favorites, dislikes and the one I dreaded, love lives. He told me he was falling for this girl he met this afternoon. I was kinda disappointed, until he said, she goes by the nickname, Claire. I jumped up, followed by Jay, gave him a hug and whispered into Jay's ear, "I am too." We stayed like that until my mom called saying I missed my 11:00pm curfew and that I was in trouble. Right before we left Jay asked, "Mary Claire Samuel, May I have your number?" We exchanged numbers as I laughed about him using my full name, because I missed curfew talking to Jay and I'm in trouble. I said goodbye and kissed him on the check." - Kasie E. Browning
I was so excited to keep reading and about Jay, I accidentally squealed really loud, waking Maxon up.
"Is everything okay, America?" Maxon asked with a sleepy grin.
I started breathing fast and then I said/yelled back, "THE PAIN IN OUR HEARTS IS GETTING SO GOOD! CLAIRE AND JAY ARE SO CUTE TOGETHER! I CANNOT CONTAIN MY FEELS!"
Maxon asked with a hint of a giggle, "Um... Are you a Fangirl America?"
I said, "No, yes, I don't know, kinda."
Maxon began to laugh at me. "Stop laughing, it's not funny, Maxon!" I yelled.  Soon again, Maxon fell asleep and I began to read. 
A couple hours later I start sobbing. "America, are you hurt?" Maxon asked, somewhat alarmed.
I responded, "Yes, emotionally. Jay got Cancer in his whole body and the Cancer took over his body and... his life. Then, he died in Claire's arms, while giving Claire her last kiss from her true love, himself, Jay."
Maxon looked up at me with a smirk on his face, "You're crying over a book character? I don't understand Fangirls. I also don't understand crying women," Maxon said in confusion.
Maxon POV
America's crying over a book phase has ended. It only took a bar of chocolate, two bottles of water and 30 minutes of me cuddling, tickling and kissing the heck out America. Now we are just snuggling up with a fury blanket on the big seat on the back of the plane.  I look at my watch, we should be landing in twenty minutes or so.  Soon America fell asleep cuddling against my chest and nuzzling her nose into the crook if my neck. About 15 minutes later the loudspeaker came on announcing our landing in 5 minutes. America and I sat down in our seats and buckled up.  Right before the plane landed we tried to do countdown for the landing of the plane.  As we began our countdown at 5 the plane landed at 4. We laughed and got off the plane.
---------------------
Did you like it?  This chapter was kinda cliché, but it was cute! I had a lot of fun writing " The Pain in Our Hearts."  (Title inspiration from The Fault in Our Stars By John Green.) Kasie E. Browning did not actually write that, I just put that because I felt more like America was reading.  I think might actually do a book like that, with those characters, Jay and Claire.  How do you like the length of the chapter? Please come to read, comment and vote on my story! Bye!
