"Terra."
"Hm?" I shrugged the hand off my shoulder.
"Time to get up." Minho.
"No..."
"Okay... I guess you don't wanna be a Runner..."
I sat up, giving myself a blackout. Minho laughed.
"What?" I asked him.
"Newt said you could run today, see how you like it." I noticed Newt was gone.
"Where is Newt?"
"I just said he said you could run, not that he enjoyed saying it." Ha Ha. Typical Minho sarcasm.
I smiled. "Good that. Let's go."

My lungs screamed for air as I ran after Minho. He was fast. Although I could easily outpace him, I didn't. From back here, I could watch him. He was fast. And strong; I could see his muscles working as we sped through the Maze.
"Alright, we can rest for five," he said, stopping to sit against a wall.
"You sure? I could run all day!" I didn't sit down.
Minho smiled. "Right. Well, after another day of this, you'll wish you'd listened to Newt."
I sat next to him and drank some water.
"Did you really see him eat a cricket?" I asked him. He laughed.
"Nah. It was me who had eaten one." He smiled at me. I smiled back.
His smile was different than Newt's; I could return it without blushing, but it made me feel warm inside.
"What?" Minho asked. I realized I was staring at him and went red.
"Nothing." I looked away. Shuck!
"Better not let Newt see you looking at me like that," he said with a laugh.
"Newt?" I was confused.
Minho shook his head. "Never mind. Let's go." He stood and took off. I followed.
Sorry for the short chapters. I've been busy. Luv you
