Aurora knew she recognised the Glade, and she was fucking determined to find out why.

Aurora awoke the next morning to Alex curled up beside her. She couldn't remember how she got there but she shrugged it off, before turning back around to enjoy her and Alex's morning cuddle.
It didn't last long, until Ben came marching into the room — a scowl worn on his face.
"Everything okay?" Aurora mumbled, lifting her head slightly off Alex's chest.
Ben sighed and sat on the bed beside her. "Minho's being a piece of klunk." he said, threading his hands together. "And it's annoying me."
"Why's he acting like that?" Aurora asked, and Ben looked at her like he was a young child who got their hand stuck in the cookie jar. She looked at him suspiciously, and Alex let out a loud snore.
Aurora shuffled out of the sleeping lion's tight grasp, so she was facing Ben more. His blond hair was sat flatly on his head and she noticed how he had his trainers on the wrong feet.
"Your trainers are on the wrong feet." Aurora stated, her eyes darting down to them.
Ben pursed his lips.
"I know, I just wanted to get away from Minho as soon as I could." said Ben and Aurora let out a shaky laugh that caused Alex to still slightly in his bed.
"Fair enough." she acknowledged, nodding towards him. "Wait... do you know how I got here?"
He nodded and smirked slightly. "So after you and Minho finished mapping or whatever, you both went to the river and you fell asleep pretty much."
Oh.
"So how did I get here?" Aurora cautiously asked, feeling like she already knew the answer deep in her gut.
"Minho carried you." Ben replied, then raising his eyebrow slightly at her. "You sure you and Minho aren't a thing — "
" — positive." Aurora interrupted sternly, and Ben raised his hands in mock surrender.
"Come on," Ben said, slapping his thighs and standing up. "Alby wants to see you."
Aurora managed to get out of Alex's grasp and stood up, searching the room for her shoes. She found then and slipped them on, the correct feet, and made her way over to Alex's sleeping figure. Aurora gently kissed his temple, before making her way over to the door where Ben was patiently stood.

"Minho told me about your delightful trip in the Maze." Alby said, while pacing up and down. Aurora sighed.
"Just spit it out Alby." she said. "Don't hold back, it's too early for lies and all that rubbish."
Alby sat down beside her, dangling his legs over the edge of the Watchtower. The Glade was quiet, it still being early for anyone to be up. The only Gladers up were Alby for obvious reasons, Frypan to make breakfast, Ben and Minho as they were running and Aurora — who really wanted to go back to bed.
