I woke up to someone shaking me.
Minho.
"Uh.. hi." I say, groggily. "Get up, Lynn. Today is your first day running!" He says.
My heart skipped a beat when I heard this. I almost forgot I was going to be a runner. And I got to run with Minho! For the two months I've been here, Minho was my best friend. And you could say, I guess, that I had a teeny tiny crush on him. "Yeah, okay. I'll meet you outside in 10 minutes." I say, climbing out of bed.
"Good that." He says. I walk to the bathroom and get dressed, brush my teeth, and pull my wavy black hair into a simple side braid.
Minho is waiting for me outside. "Ready shank?" Minho asks jokingly. "Duh! I've been waiting to run forever." I say. "How can you be so excited?! The maze is so dangerous. Do you have a death wish?!" He says, sarcastically. "Haha no.. it's just, I'm curious." I explain. "Yeah, no duh." He retorts.
I love it when he talks sarcastically. It's so cute. We walk to the kitchen and make our lunches. Then, we make our way to the maze door. It opens, and we take off. I keep up with Minho's pace. We run all the way to section 6 before taking a break for lunch. "So.." Minho starts. "So.." I say. "Anyone you like?" He asks slowly. I choke on my sandwich. "Uh.. why you ask?" I say. Why would Minho care? "I don't know.. I'm just tryna make conversation." He says, smirking. "Uhm no.. what about you?" I ask. "Actually yes. I've had my eye on her for a while now. About a month." He says. Blushing. "Oh..." I say. I'm pretty sure he's talking about Teresa. Because she's been here for about a month, and she's really pretty. I wouldn't blame him falling for her.

We got back to the glade about an hour ago. Minho and I went separate ways when we entered the glade. He went to draw his map, and I went to get some dinner. The kitchen was crowded. I saw Teresa sitting at a table in the corner. I went over and said hi. But I didn't sit down.I got my food, and sat by myself in a corner. Sorta in an unnoticeable spot. After I sat down, I saw Minho come in. He didn't see me. But he was walking towards Teresa. I choked on air, and watched him. He was just over there, making a conversation. I could feel the anger rise up inside me. The tears started to come too. I got up quickly, and bolted to the deadheads.
Once I was far enough, I climbed up a tree as best I could, and sat on a branch. That's when I let the tears fall. It's just not fair! The guy I like doesn't like me back. Maybe I should've told him my feelings a long time ago. Before Teresa got here.
A sudden noise caused me to lose my balance and fall out of the tree. "Ow.." I groaned. The person came closer and kneeled down next to me. It was Minho. "What the shuck are you doing here?!" I snapped. "Woah there, shank. What's got you all fired up?" He asks sarcastically. "Don't act like you don't know!" I say. "Um I don't..." He says, quizzically. "Minho, listen, I like you..." I trail off. There's an awkward silence, but then I speak again,"But I know you like Teresa. I mean, I can't blame you. She's a great girl and really pretty." I say, sadly. "Lynn! You thought I liked Teresa?!" He said, shocked. "Well, yeah! You sat with her at dinner, and started a conversation." I say. "Yeah that's because I was asking her advice so I could ask you out! But looks like I have my work cut out for me." He smirks. "Yeah.. I guess." I say. "Hey, don't be sad. I have something to show you." He says. "Yeah?" I say, questioning him. "What's that?" I ask.
"This." he says.
He grabs my waist and pulls me close to him, and presses his lips to mine. My arms are around his neck. Our lips move in sync. This moment was perfect. So unexpected. I wish it could last forever, but sadly, some things don't last forever like this amazing moment. We pull away and he smirks. "I looove you, Lynn." He says dragging the 'o'.
"I looove you too, Minho." I say, pulling him into my arms.
