Bruce 1 Bruce 1 get to talk with Bruce about his love for Ely. They got along well.. Robin robin believes they are only friends with robin girl but he learned afterwards when she already hated him that he wants her. he talked to anomi to help him. they talked in the bench.she said that she does not like him anymore and he said that he will still love her eventhough that's the case. Gabriel Naomi's mix tape is full of bad music.he asked her what her fave music is and she said that it is the Kristy Mccoll song. bruce the second bruce and ely went to a club. ely showed his dick to the bouncer to get bruce in. this makes bruce pose a lot of question to himself. he felt like he is needy and he is confused why they haven't had sex yet and how he is uncool.ely sang "idont want to wait" onstage and bruce know that he doesn't want to wait either. bruce went to the bathroom and wrote a note that he wants bruce but he doesn't know if he can be right for him because he's uncool and afraid. bruce felt like an outisder and went outside without saying goodbye to ely Naomi naomi will try to move on. gabriel asked her to go to starbucks. she made a list better experieiced without Ely. she asked robin how sex felt like since she haven't done it yet. naomi realized that she and ely should not do it and that it will look awkward. she realized that mourning has to end for both she and her mom. Ely ely had a meetin with his group regarding bruce's vanising. he recounts what happened int he club. they only had 2 conversations and both of them rushed and he hadn't made an effort to come back. ely wanted bruce wot be different since he is an f&r man(fuck and run) so in Bruce he waited. "You’re giving up. You’re slipping into being miserable, because if you’re miserable, then it’s all about you again. But it’s not all about you. Love doesn’t work that way.” ely figured out that it is never easy. that things that matter are not easy and would do something to make things better. "No. No no no no. It is not easy. Things that matter are not easy. Feelings of happiness are easy. Happiness is not. Flirting is easy. Love is not. Saying you’re friends is easy. Being friends is not." "I’m saying it to all of them. But really, I’m saying it most to Shaun. To Bruce. To Naomi. Not because I think it’s all my fault—I know it’s not all my fault. I guess I’m sorry is a way to say I want it to be better. Even if it’s difficult. Even if it hurts. I have to stop hiding behind who I am. I have to stop hiding behind the things other people expect from me and the things I expect from myself. I have to try." Naomi naomi felt like all his future expectaions is the hard part since they are all fantasy now. she alwasy thought that she and ely would get married. she feel like this is the same with her mother who also can't let her father go. It’s as if Mom somehow expects a magic potion will come along and fix this lie we’re living in; ’til then, she’ll sleep. naomi wants her mom to move on. she wakes her up and tells her that he is not coming back. she was able to get her mom to action. she knows that she should take ely back and do something but its a step at a time Ely ely is waiting by the stairwell where he and anomi hangs out and reminising on thier memories. Life tells you to take the elevator, but love tells you to take the stairs. naomi and ely reconciled. ely tells naomi that she screwed it up with bruce and naomi thinks hse screwed it up with Gabriel too. naomi tells her that she is failing and she might drop out ouf NYU and move away to a different place for her mom not to be trapped in a job she does not like. he asked naomi if they are ok and she says that they are. she goads him to get back bruce. Naomi naomi wanted to kiss Gabriel but he did not kiss her back instead says there is a better time for that after a date first. he instead kissed him at the back of his neck. ely chickened out with their plan so naomi went to his house to get him moving. she will be moving out and have to be ready for that. she will work in starbucks at the meantime and would want gabriel to see her in just her apron in the future.ely went to bruce the second's place. Ely I think about that as I head over to Bruce’s, and I think that as hard as we try, it still sometimes feels like we all speak different languages. Even if we share all the same words, meanings can be different. And the mistake isn’t in speaking the different languages, but in ignoring the fact. I thought Naomi and I had perfectly matched up our vocabularies and our definitions. But that’s just not possible. There are always meanings that are different, words that are heard differently than they’re said. There’s no such thing as a soulmate . . . and who would want there to be? I don’t want half of a shared soul. I want my own damn soul. I think I’m going to learn to appreciate the word close. Because that’s what Naomi and I are. We’re close. Not all the way there. Not identical. Not soulmates. But close. Because that’s as far as you should ever get with another person: very, very close. That’s what I want with Bruce, too. I want to be close. ely is at bruce the second's place. he explained to him why they haven't slept together and explained that he wanted to wait. in life, people see the worst in themselves and they need someone they trust to tell otherwise. once he got home, he tells gabriel that he should be good to naomi. at home, he sees naomi sleeping in his bed. he tells her that it went well. their knees touch and this is the closest they can be. Friendship is love as much as any romance. And like any love, it’s difficult and treacherous and confusing. But in the moment when your knees touch, there’s nothing else you could ever want. they said goodnight to evreryone. If you’re lucky—and if you try really hard—there will always be more than one. -end- the prince:daphne frederick the prince: life in the eyes of maxon before the selection started. Maxon was really anxious for it to start. He learned that the girls were handpicked by his father for certain qualities and uses and some of the girls were throwaway picks to make it seem random. he avoided seeing the girls as was the rule and decided to go out at night when everyone was in their bed. she met America and he was different from what he expected. he enjoyed talking to her. he wanted her to like him. america said that shw would be a confidante and a friend and he does not need to pursue her but Maxon will still try.

Aspen is gorgeous and America loves her for nearly 2 years. Aspen does everything for his family. He wants America to try and enter the selection. Afterwards, America sang for her and Aspen gave her a penny for each time. America saves all this penny in a jar. Chapter 3 America's mother gave her a proposal that she can accept work alone and get half of the earnings she makes. America fills out the form “America, if you loved an Eight, I’d want you to marry him. But you should know that love can wear away under the stress of being married. Someone you think you love now, you might start to hate when he couldn’t provide for you. And if you couldn’t take care of your children, it’d be even worse. Love doesn’t always survive under those types of circumstances.” “But no matter what, I want you to be loved. You deserve to be loved. And I hope you get to marry for love and not a number.” America talked to Gerad who haven't found his talent in art yet. she goads him to continue trying to figure it out but what Gerad really wants is to play ball. America went to submit their forms early and met Aspen's mother and sisters who are also there to submit forms. they learned that thye chose the winners not on the lottery. America heard from Lena that Aspen is happy and saving money for marriage. this made her very happy.

Chapter 9 America finished her interview and had a tour on the palace. She then went to her bedroom and lay there. they then watch themselves on screen after the report and they see America as a threat. Chapter 10 America was hated by a lot of the girls and she sought out advice from Marlee. She missed her family and felt caged in the palace so she wanted to go outside but barred by the guards. she then collapsed in the guard's arms and then the Prince saw them. He let her go outside. America was loose on her words and told the prince how shallow the contest is but due to how sincere the prince is, America's disgust with him lessened. The prince asked her not to tell what happened to anyone since they are not allowed to see each other until tomorrow. Chapter 11 Everyone prepares for the first time that they will see the prince. They teach the girls about etiquette and table manners. Prince Maxon talked to each of the girls. America told him that she likes someone else but she could be his confidante. 8 of the girls were sent home. only 27 are left. Chapter 12 America made a bargain with the prince that if her sister cried because of strawberry tarts that she'll get to wear pants for a week and if not she owes the prince a walk in the grounds. they wrote letters to their family. On their date, they talked about America's family. America thought that Maxon would do something to her so she kneed her in the thigh. Maxon was sad that America thinks that of her. When she got back in her room, Maxon gave her a gift of pants which she requested. Chapter 13 Rebels came in the palace. there are 2 kinds. the northerners and southerners. she learned about lucy's story and fear with the rebels Chapter 14 Maxon and America have a secret communication where they touch their ear which meant Maxon will see her later. Maxon was interviewed by Gavril and explained that she'll keep someone for quite a while. Chapter 15 America and Maxon went to the garden. Maxon has a lot of concenrs but one of which is that there is a chance that he can't find his soulmate in the selection or that girl might not love him. Maxon promised America that he'll keep her as long as she wants or needed to escape from Aspen. Chapter 16 Girls are worried that some of them have not dated the prince yet. Anna was provoked by Celeste to hurt her which made Anna leave. Chapter 17 History lessons with the Girls and how Illea became the name of the country because of Gregory Illea. Maxon took pictures with each of the girls for a magazine. they heard of another attack and someone came to get Maxon's advice. America sent a note to see Maxon. they talked about the country and how education is not enough because people do criminal acts also because they are starving just like her family cannot have leftovers for they always want more. Maxon kissed her forehead and went away. Chapter 18 The prince announced about the changes in compensation. 4 and lower still get support but smaller but 2 and 3's don't get compensation anymore. America will be doing her interview with Gavril. she learned from her maids that the reason Janelle was sent out is that she said unkind things of America. Many believed that America was the Prince's favorite and many of the girls is copying her. Celeste saw her dress and wanted it so she tore one of the sleeves. Maxon announced about the new project he is working on to feed people from the lower caste and that donation can also be done. America's interview became personal and she called the prince maxon accidentally. when asked to describe Maxon he said that he is good and will be a phenomenal king. Maxon visited him later taht evening. Maxon and America kissed for the first time..and the second time to remove the memory of the bad one. america said yes to a possiblity for them. :0 “I’m not so stupid as to believe that you’ve completely forgotten about your former boyfriend. I know what you’ve gone through and that you’re not exactly here under the normal circumstances. I know you think there are others here more suited for me and this life, and I wouldn’t want you to rush into trying to be happy with any of this. I just… I just want to know if it’s possible…” It was a hard question to answer. Would I be willing to live a life I’d never wanted? Would I be willing to watch as he kindly tried to date the others to be sure he wasn’t making a mistake? Would I be willing to take on the responsibility that he had as a prince? Would I be willing to love him? “Yes, Maxon,” I whispered. “It’s possible.” Chapter 19Chapter 19 America was sad when she learned that Maxon also kissed Olivia.kind and queen of swendway as well as the relatives of the royal family visited. she talked to adele and learned more about the queen and how family is family even with different caste.

Aspen kissed her but america tried to stop him. she said that they cant do that anymore because she is part of the selection. America wants to choose herself because she dont know what she wants at the moment and does not want to be swayed but Aspen will fight for her. America felt like this is the first day of the selection. she is now part of the elite. \ Chapter 25 America and the girls have to come up with a philantrophy project but America doesn't have a clue. Maxon wants America to decide whether she wants the role, workload and him faster because there is less time. they fought and Maxon left and will just go visti Kriss instead. Chpater 26 America read the diary again and learned the history about Illea's hero gregory and how he sold his daughter to attain his dreams to be a king. America wanted to know what Maxon is made of to make a decision. He looked for Maxon and saw him kissing Celeste. America was mortified. Maxon saw her and followed her to her room. they fought. America wanted to go home but Maxon does not permit it. But against all that, America still do want him. America does not want to win anymore but she ahve to out with a bang.

He explained that he just wanted to have 15 minutes to feel normal. they told each other that they cared about each other. they kissed and wanted the moment to last. America figured that maybe the northerners are trying to find a specific book in the diary. Maxon gave him his bracelet again. Chapter 30 the guards came and they woke up. America will be leaving the elite. she told her maids that she is leaving the selection. She explained to Aspen that she needs time to choose him again because her heart just got broken. Chapter 31 America is going to leave the palace. but when she was about to, maxon came and said that he had spoken to his father and could let her stay if she is in her good behavior.

The maids will make a plan to help her. -end- House Stark is one of the Great Houses of the Seven Kingdoms and is the principal house of the North. Its seat is at Winterfell, one of the oldest castles in the Seven Kingdoms. Its coat of arms displays a grey direwolf running on a white field, and itswords are Winter is Coming. House Stark ruled as the Kings of the North for centuries until House Targaryenconquered Westeros, and the Starks chose to submit to their authority and were made major lords. Since Aegon's Landing, the Starks have been the Lords of Winterfell, Lords Paramount of the North, and Wardens of the North. Fifteen years before the events of the series, Lyanna Stark and Prince Rhaegar Targaryen disappeared. House Stark treated this as an abduction and protested. In response King Aerys II Targaryen executed Lord Stark and his son Brandon. Eddard became Lord of Winterfell and joined his friend Robert Baratheon in rebellion to save Lyanna and avenge his father and brother. Although Robert was crowned king and the Targaryens were killed or exiled, Lyanna died. By A Game of Thrones, Eddard and his wife Catelyn, of House Tully, have had five children: Robb, Sansa, Arya, Bran, and Rickon. Eddard also acknowledges one illegitimate son, Jon Snow. Throughout the series, the Starks are scattered by the events of the War of the Five Kings, and the members that are still alive are in very different situations. The fate of the House remains uncertain, as most believe that all the legitimate Stark sons are dead and Winterfell was burned by Ramsey (Snow) Bolton in A Clash of Kings. |
