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

chapter twenty nine: dead or alive?

Newt remained sitting by the doors, Minho joined him at about 7:30am. Minho felt so sorry for Newt, he looked shucking exhausted and you could just see the tears reflecting on his face in the morning sunlight. "She'll be okay, Newt. I know she will." Minho said, after a long hour of silence. Newt took a deep breath and stood up. The doors were supposed to open in one minute. All of the other Gladers gathered around the doors. Even Gally, who hated Y/n, looked worried. Newt stood at the front along with Minho. Minho was already wearing his running gear, Ben was still sick so there was no way he could run. Then, the huge sounds of the doors opening began, the ground rumbled and air was blown through the small gap in the door. That was all Newt needed, he knew she wasn't there. "No.." he said, "No.. sh- she can't be dea- dead." he said, his voice cracking because he had barely spoken in hours. His throat burned because of all the crying but he didn't care. He walked over to the wall, slumped against it and burst into tears again. Everyone left him alone, no one went over to comfort him. They knew he didn't want that. Minho took one last look at the sorrowful Newt and ran into the Maze. He would find Y/n.

~*Minho's Pov*~
Whether the poor girl was dead or alive, Minho knew he had to find her. She had to be out there somewhere, right? He took twists and turns and saw a little crack in the wall with some blood onfront of it, he looked behind the ivy and there was Y/n's torch and backpack sitting in there. He saw a trail of blood going around different corners, he followed it for a solid hour, running as fast as he could. He continued running when he reached the Cliff. They trail of blood went to the right, he saw as he went on, the amount of blood was getting larger. This worried Minho deeply. He turned around the corner and looked down the long corridor, and there it was. Y/n's lifeless body surrounded in a pool of her own blood.

~*Newt's Pov*~
Newt still hadn't moved from beside the wall. He couldn't process it all, 'She's gone.' he thought, 'I'm never gonna see her again.' This upset Newt more, he ran his fingers through his long hair and hit his head against the huge stone walls. He saw from across the Glade, that Alby was looking at him. Obviously making sure he was okay, Frypan made his way over and kneeled down infront of Newt, "I'm so sorry man, I didn't know her very well but she seemed like a very good person." "She was." Newt said in a croaked voice, Fry was suprised he even said anything at all. He gave him a comforting nod and walked away.

~*Alby's Pov*~
Alby was worried about Newt, he looked worse than he ever had. He hadn't slept in more than 24 hours, he'd just lost the one person closest to him. He felt terrible. "Fry! C'm here." Fry walked over to Alby slowly his head looking down. "How is he?" "Shucking terrible, he's hurt. On the inside and out. I'm suprised he even talked to me-" "What did he say?" Fry looked at him with a suprised face, "Chill, I just said she seemed like a very good person and he said 'She was.' that was it." Fry then got up and walked away from Alby.

~*Minho's Pov*~
"Oh my god.. Y/n?" he ran as fast as he could over to her limp body, he didn't care about the pool of blood surrounding her. He knelt down and listened to hear if she was breathing. His heart was pounding, luckily he heard a tiny, raspy breath. He picked up the girl's body and ran as fast as he could back to the Glade.
