enemies to lovers (y/n and newt) book one.

chapter twenty six: in or out?

Minho and Y/n ran for hours and hours, they had been running for two hours and it was only ten o'clock. They sat down and took a short break, "Whew, that's exhausting." "How you like being a runner now Y/n?" Y/n took a sip of water and looked at Minho, "Just makes me like it even more, it's better than being stuck in the Glade all day." Minho agreed and went into a daze thinking about something. Y/n snapped her fingers to get his attention, "Minho? Hello? MINHO!" "Oh- sorry I was just thinking." he said quickly. Y/n stared at him in wonder, "About what?" Minho looked up at Y/n and said, "You two really do love eachother don't you?" Y/n was drinking some water whilst he said this causing her to choke, "Excuse me?"

"Newt, it's obvious you like him. And it's obvious he likes you." Y/n was still trying to catch her breath from choking, "Minho.... We're.. just be..best friends. That's all." Minho rolled his eyes, "Sure. Sure. C'mon shank. We gotta keep moving, we are gonna lose track of time if we have another 45 minute 'short break'." He picked up his backpack and started running, Y/n followed closely behind.

They reached a place which they had never seen before, Minho had obviously taken a wrong turn somewhere across the way. They had already eaten their lunch hours ago and they had to get back soon. "Let's just check it out quickly.." Y/n said while walking towards a long corridor that abruptly ended, like a cliff. "No Y/n you don't understand! We have an hour to get back, this is the furthest out we've ever been we might not make it back in time!" Y/n continued walking down the hall, when she heard a sharp click. She looked around unaware where the sound was coming from, then another one. Then from other the side of the cliff she saw a large metal clamp coming over the other side, "Shhhhuck.. MINHO RUN! IT'S THE GRIEVERS GO!" "HURRY UP Y/N COME ON!"

The two ran as fast as their legs could carry them barely looking back, Y/n took a glance and saw that the Griever was following them. Newt waited anxiously at the doors, like he had all day, waiting for the two to return. "Y/n, don't look back just keep running!" Minho shouted from onfront of the girl, they were close to the doors but Y/n checked her watch and the time read 5:54, the doors closed at 6pm. They kept running and they reached the last corner of the maze. Minho was further ahead than the girl, so he ran around the corner about 10 seconds before her. Her legs hadn't been as good after that time she passed out when she first came up, she had a dodgy knee. Suddenly she felt an immense pain in her knee, Minho ran through the doors as Y/n came around the corner, "Y/n! Hurry up c'mon Love!" she heard Newt's familiar voice around the corner, then she heard the doors closing. She could barely run anymore and the Griever was catching up, she speed walked around the corner clutching her knee in pain. Minho tried to run inside to help her but Gally held a strong grip on his arm, Newt tried the same but Alby grabbed ahold of his arm. He struggled to get out of Alby's grip but it was no use.

"C'mon Y/n, you can do this!" Newt shouted still pulling against Alby's grip. She couldn't take the pain anymore and fell to the ground, "No! No! Y/n c'mon get up!" Newt cried, "Come on!" The doors were about to close, Y/n and Newt made eye contact one last time before the doors slammed shut.
