-the next morning-
You wake up early to start the first day in the glade and you see newt standing with Minoh. You walk over there hoping to talk to newt some more. "You never told me what you are" you said to newt. "I'm a runner" he said. "Oh what am I. I want to be a runner". "Trust me sockie you don't. And stay away from the maze it's not safe." Newt said. His voice was very shaky almost like he was terrified by what you said. "Hey sock I'm minoh I'm sure Newt told you all about me" you look at newt who was still in shock by your comment. "No not really just that your a runner" minoh sighed "well you obviously know my name. Her over there Cleo, she's my girlfriend she does everything but mainly comes running with me." Minoh smiled. "What's it like, running is it a rush of adrenaline" you ask seeming extremely intrigued "it's not very fun. You can't stop running once you start and you have to be fast" minoh explained. "See sock. Still wanna be a runner?" Newt asked trying to prove a point. "Omg is that Thomas I'm gonna go say hi to Thomas." Avoiding the question you try to run over to him when newt pulls you back "whatever you do don't mention Teresa to Thomas. Don't ask why." Newt warned you. You pull your arm away and walk away from him.

-the tent-
"Hey Thomas" he looks up to see who's there. "Oh hey sockie how's your first day" he asked. "Chaotic to say the least. Can I ask you something". He looks at you with curiosity "go on then" he said. "any tips for a newbie" you asked. He seemed relieved almost like he was happy you didn't ask something else. "Well one and this is a major one. Do NOT step on anyone's toes they get very protective of there jobs so stay in your place. Two keep clear of The maze and three don't drink anything frypan gives you." He said. "Noted" you smiled at him. "You love to smile don't you." He laughed. "Is that a bad thing?" You ask. "Not at all you have a beautiful smile" he blushed. There was a moment of Awkward silence but Thomas fixed it. "so there's a bonfire tonight wanna be my date" he winks at you. You look at him with a confused  look. "It's not a real date" he said. "OH that makes more sense yeah I would love to" you both laugh.

-the maze-
You go over to the front of the maze "tempting isn't it" galley said. "Almost like it's calling my name." You sighed. Galley turned to you "listen the maze is not some sort of play area it's full of dangerous things like grievers and twists and turns" you cut him off "yeah the whole maze thing didn't make that obvious" you said sarcastically. "Oh your a sarcastic one. Arnt you Sock" he laughed. You look at him with a angry face. "Im what." He scratched his neck "nothing" he looked down. You tapped his shoulder "I'm sorry I'm just so confused. Nothings making any sense. Thomas and newt are being I don't even know. This is all just too much" you tear up "I'm just so tired". Galley hugs you "we all are Sockie". You walk back to the camp together and on the way he goes more into detail about the jobs and the key factors.

-the bonfire-
"AYYYYEEEE bonfire nightttt" newt screamed as he ran over to Thomas. "Sit down newt" Thomas commanded. "Oooo sorry Tommy" they smirk at each other and Thomas catches your eye, Thomas pats the side of him and you go sit with him. "How was your first day sock" he asked. "Good Galley helped" you smiled. "Haha good one" newt laughed. You turn to him with a confused look "that's not a joke". Thomas looked at you with wide eyes "our Galley?" He asked with disbelief. "No the guy in the maze" you said sarcastically. Newt high fives you then pulled his hand away after Thomas gave him a death stare. "Are you jealous that Galley helped me Thomas". "No I'm not" Thomas replied quickly. "You sure" you asked. "Why would I care were not even friends. We're not even close. I don't even know you that well." He rolled his eyes. "Right I forgot. I'm just that new girl. My bad. I'm going to go get something from my tent I'll be back later." You said walking away. "Bit harsh Tommy don't you think" newt said. "Not at all she means nothing to me." Thomas laughed. Newt sighed and went to find you.

-your tent-
"Hey Sockie. You have to forgive Tom" he paused. "Are you crying" he asked with concern. "No I just need a minute" your voice cracked as your eyes turn into oceans of tears and your make rivers on your cheeks. He sits next to you "what is it Sockie is it Thomas" you shake your head "pressure. That you want to be a runner. The gl..." you cut him off. "It's everything. The constant fear of dying from the grievers the crushing fear that were never leaving this place. The note 'wicked is good' what the hell does that even mean. I mean honestly I just want it to end it I just want to go home" he looked at you "you remember home" he asked with shock. "No but I know it's a hell of a lot better than this". You sighed. "Give it a chance come to the bonfire please it'll be fun. For me?" He smiled. He wiped away your tears "please" he begged. "Ok fine but you owe me" you laughed. He lead you back to the bonfire and put himself between you and Thomas.
