I hope you like this one! PLEASE please please check out all the updates, I've been going through and updating all the chapters, I will also be making the first ones longer as well. 


You heard birds chirping in the background and rolled over stuffing your face in the pillow. You did not want to get out of bed today. Maybe later, maybe not at all, maybe Alby would let you stay in bed all day. Smiling to yourself over the ridiculous thought of Alby allowing that you sighed and swung your legs over the bed. The first place you headed was the kitchen to see your friend Frypan and get some breakfast. You grabbed an apple and sat down. "How are you today princess of the glade?" Frypan asks while giving you a deep bow. "I think I'm more the queen since I'm the only one but I'm great, thanks." You say laughing. He laughs as well and continues washing dishes. "Y/N!" you heard being yelled. you nodded to Frypan, threw the remains of your apple into the trash and headed out knowing exactly who called you.

"What's up Jeff?" You asked taking deep breaths. Jeff and you had a complicated relationship, you could never tell what he was feeling and it bugged you more often then not. "Winston's hurt pretty bad and Ben came back because he fell in the maze, plus one of the builders nailed himself to the wall." He said wiping sweat of his forehead. "Anyways, we need all hands on deck, which one do you want?" He asked. "I'll take Ben, he's better with me." You said already heading in the direction of the med jack tent. You heard Jeff running toward the builders site after another scream.

"Hey Ben, what'd you do this time shank?" You asked grinning. Ben shook his head, "Was racing myself and tripped." He mumbled. "You're a mess, you know?" You say fixing him up. Ben was another of your best friends. "Guess what I heard?" He asked suddenly in a higher pitched voice then usual. "What?" You say looking at him confused. "Someone on the glade likes you." He says matter-of-factly. You giggle, "Ben you know I can't date you, you're to tall." You say seriously. Ben almost choked on the water he was drinking. "Klunk, y/n not me!" He says, you finish up and sit back thinking who in the glade could like you seriously. "Who?" You ask finally. "Minho heard from Thomas that Newt was talking to Zart who was listening to Clint talk to Frypan about how Jeff really liked you." Ben says with a big grin. "I gotta go but I'l see you later!" He says bolting off again.

You considered it, could Jeff like you? You decided to see if you could find him, which wasn't hard. There was still a commotion going on at the builders site. You quickly spotted Jeff and went over, "Hey, did you need any help at all, I'm all done with Ben." You said looking around at the mess, builders might be good at building but not tidying. "I uh, think I'm done here, finally." Jeff says. "Please be carefully and watch what you're doing." He yells at all the boys and then points at Gally, "Keep these shuck-heads safe." He says and Gally nods before ordering everyone back to work. Jeff and you started to head back to the med-jack tent. "So" You say not really sure how to bring it up. Jeff looks at you, "You know I like you, I'm guessing." He says looking away. "Yeah, Ben heard from Minho who, oh, I can't remember." You say laughing. Jeff looks at you and smiles, "No one can have secrets here." He says shaking his head you smile and take his hand in yours, "Probably for the best." You say. All he can do is smile and nod.
