(Same TW as last chapter. If any of y'all wanna talk, my dm's are open always. Love you all!)
I had been sick for a few days before today. I woke up, feeling strangley fine. I guess the meds had worn off.
I went to go talk to the Greenie because I still need answers on how I know him. Why he is so farmiar to me. And why he was in my dream as well as what it meant.
I made my way to the picnic tables for breakfast when I spotted him sitting alone. Now is my chance. I push past some of the gladers and go sit by him. He looks up at my startled.
"Hey, Greenie. I'm Eve," I say, holding out a hand.
He shakes it hesitantly and says, "oh, hi. I'm T-Thomas." A wave of what looks like confusion washes over his face. "But, don't you already know my name, Eve? Don't you remember me?"
"Wait, what? You remember me?" I ask searching for answers. He remembers me too?
"Yeah, your my sister, how could I forget. I kept trying to talk to you these past few days but Alby said you were sick or something."
"You're-you're my b-brother?" I stuttered. "You were in my dreams."
"Oh, I guess you don't remember me much then, huh?" he says, disappointed.
"No I uhh, you're not supposed to remember me. How-how do you?" I manage choke out.
"I don't know. I just got here and the only two things I could remember were you and my name," he chuckled, though to me, this was not quite as funny. I nod.
"Well then, brother of mine, I guess you should get used to me coming around. We are family after all. But I think you'll find that we all are here," I say honestly. Thomas nods and give me a big smile.
I got up and started walking to the gardens to find Newt. He's a trackhoe, so, he would most likely be there.
I was walking when Alby stops me. He puts a hand on my shoulder and says, "Come, Eve. We need to talk," in a serious tone.
Oh no. What had I done this time? Am I in trouble? Did I do something wrong? Is Newt hurt?
I walk into Alby's hut and he follows, shutting the door behind him.
"H-hey Alby, what's up?" I say, kind of tense.
"A glader found something in the trash, he told me and I thought I would need to talk with you about it."
"Oh, shuck. What a snitch," I scold under my breath.
"Eve, this is serious. We can't have a child running around in the glade. It's too dangerous. I'm afraid that once you have the baby, some of the other gladers might get to it. Hurt it even. I'm worried. I have to go now but I just needed to let you know first. There will be a meeting held by the keepers tommorow morning. We will discuss it then," Ably finishes and he walks out of the door, not even giving me a chance to respond.
I just stood there in shock for a moment before going back to find Newt. I told him what happened and he looked just as shocked as I did.
The next morning, Newt and I got up early and head to the Keeper meeting. We were late of course and all of the keepers had already arrived. They were sitting in a circle around a large table, looking up at me. They looked angry, but it wasn't there place to be.
Newt and I quickly sat down and remained silent untill Alby spoke. "I think we all know why we are here today. I'm just going to skip to the voting to make this go faster. We'll start with you, Zart," Alby says, motioning for Zart to speak.
"I say we punish her. She shouldn't have done this. Put us in this position," Zart says, confidently.
I couldn't believe his words. What the hell did he mean? Put you in this position?
"I agree," says Billy, keeper of the baggers.
"Any thoughts, Eve?" Alby says before any of the other keepers speak. He too sounded quite angry with me. I stood up, quickly, causing my chair to flip over behind me. I ignore it and speak.
"You think it's fun being here?! You think that I enjoy being pregnant, terrified, and alone? Well it's not. It never was! You have not right to punish me. It's not my fault! It's as simple as that," I shout, picking up my chair and sitting back down.
"And how exactly is it not your fault?" Alby says as the other keepers keep quiet. The room is filled with silence as I can feel tear trying to escape my eyes but I hold them back.
"I don't know how this happened okay? I mean I do, but I didn't want this."
They all looked at me confused.
"Clearly you did, Eve. Or else you wouldn't be shucking pregnant!" Zart yells. I could feel Newt tense up. Newt was about to yell but I shot him a look to stay quiet and he did.
"You have no say in this. None of you do! For all I know it could have been one of you! I'm not the one here who should be punished! I didn't do anything wrong! I'm not the one who is a shucking rapist!" I shouted at them. They all go quiet as they look at me in disbelief. Even Newt. Have I said too much?
Tears star to fall down my face as I quickly get up and run out of the hut, slaming the door back behind me. I could tell that still, no one in the hut was saying a word. I guess they were all still surprised by my outburst. I was so mad. Angry.
I needed something to punch, so, I went into the deadheads and found a tree. The one that Winston had propped me up against a few days before his banishing.
I began hitting it as hard as I could. I felt my bones fighting not to break in an instant. Pain was shooting up both of my arms like gunshots, but I kept going.
My knuckles were soon bloody and my punches were starting to get weaker. I stopped and slumped against the tree, tiredly. I began to sob into my bloody hands, which probably got blood all over my face.
After a little while, I get up and head for Newt's hut, needing sleep.
"Geez, Eve. What happened?" Newt asked, seeing the blood all over my face and hands when I walked inside the hut.
"Just got angry and started hitting a tree. It's nothing, I'm fine," I lie. The pain was a constant reminder of my anger, which made my blood boil.
"No, your not. I'm taking you to the medjacks now. Come on," Newt says, grabbing my arm. I try to pull away but he is too strong and I'm too tired so I just give in.
