She was sent into the maze. But for what reason? She wakes up to see 30 teenage boys surrounding her. She is stuck in the glade with no clue, no memory, and no hope, that is until she finds an unexpected romance. Will she fall in love? Will she make...
Once we reached Minho's hut Newt set my clothes on the bed. I did the same with the box.
"Try 'em on," Newt said referring to the clothes. I nodded and motioned for him to leave as I shut the door behind him.
I grabbed a shirt and put it on. They didn't send any pants, which confused me. However, they did send shorts. I quickly put them on, knowing that Newt is still waiting on me. I wanted to see how they looked before Newt did so I scavenged around Minho's room, looking for a mirror. I saw a long brown cloth hanging on the wall and I pulled it off, revealing a large mirror on the wall. I looked at the outfit I was wearing, a but confused.
(Author's Note: Imma put some pics of the clothes I here so y'all can see what I'm talking about.

I'm in a glade filled with boys. I'm the only girl and the creators send me a crop top and short shorts. Geez, this isn't going to go well. I then remember that Newt is waiting just outside the door as he calls for me to hurry up.
"I-I don't think I should," I call out to Newt, a bit embarrassed.
"What do you mean? You're beautiful. You'll look fine. Just come out already," Newt says, impatiently.
I open the door and slowly step out, handing Newt his clothes that I had been wearing. He looks at me up and down and doesn't speak.
"What?" I ask, annoyed.
"Nothing," Newt says as I begin to walk towards the small campfire party that had begun. The sun had already set and I wasn't really all that tired so I went to join the party. Newt followed close behind. I could feel everyone's eyes watching me as I went to sit down around the fire. Even Gally was watching. The whole glade went silent for a few seconds. Leaving only the crackling fire making noise. I looked around.
After a few more seconds most of the gladers had gone back to their conversations. However, I did hear a few whispers about my outfit, but I just shrugged them off and began talking to Minho.
Even Minho was staring at me. "Hey!" I say to Minho. "My eyes are up here." I point to my eyes as Minho's entire face goes red like a tomato.
"Sorry," he apologizes. "Don't you think you should, uhh-cover up a little more?" Minho asked, awkwardly.
"These clothes are what the box sent me, so I'm wearing them. End of story," I said, my tone flat and serious.
Minho did not respond. He just got up and went to talk to his fellow runners.
Newt then came over and sat next to me, putting a hand around my waist. "Want a drink?" he said handing me a glass of Gally's concoction. I nodded and took a sip. This one wasn't as bad as the last. I could feel the achohol doing its magic as I took another gulp. Newt quickly took the drink from out of my hand.
"Careful, that stuff is strong," Newt said. I could already feel the drink growing on me. I was a bit tipsy.
"Let's play a game," Gally says standing up next to the fire. "Truth or dare," he says as the gladers cheer. "Newt," Gally says, "truth or dare?" I look over at Newt waiting for his reply.
"Dare," Newt says taking another sip of his drink. Gally looks at Newt as another glader whispers into Gally's ear. A grin slowly creeps its way onto Gally's face.
"I dare you to kiss the girl," Gally says as the entire glade goes into shock, including me. "It's a dare Newt, you have to do it," Gally says, growing impatient. Newt looks over at me, and I awkwardly look back.
"We don't have to do this is you don't want to," Newt says leaning in closer to my face.
"It's just a dare, Newt. It's fine," I say honestly not reading too much into it because really it was just a dare. Nothing more.
I felt Newt lean in even closer as our lips softly pressed into eachother. I started to pull away but Newt placed a hand at the back of my neck and pulled me in to kiss me harder.
After a few seconds he pulled away, awkwardly. I shuffled back in my seat, still I shock. I think Newt likes me, but do I like him? Or was the way he kissed me just because of the dare?
Everyone in the glade was cheering. Most looking viciously jealous. I took another sip of the drink and brushed my hair out of my face slightly.
"Eve, truth or dare," Newt asks me.
"Truth," I say as I heard a bunch of boos coming from the gladers. I chuckled.
"Who in glade do you like?" Newt asked, genuinely wanting to know. I looked at him shocked.
"That's for me to know and you to find out," I say as I stood up, sassily, and walked away. I could feel the gladers eyes on me as I did so, leaving them in awe.
I headed to bed, and so did Minho. I moved my things off of the bed. As I did so, Minho started to speak.
"That was quite the kiss," he said as I rolled my eyes. "It's too bad for Newt that I'm the one sleeping with you," he said sarcastically. Once again, I rolled my eyes and got into bed, falling slowly asleep as I did so.
