RUNAWAY

Chapter 3- Common Sense and a Brain

(Y/n) POV
Little did I know that'll sitting down at the table would lead to the some of the most awkward minutes of my life.

From the second I sat down next to Newt, I had the majority of the boys staring at me. It was like they've never seen a girl before. I ask Newt, "why are they all looking at me like that?" I looked down at my food to avoid making eye contact with staring boys, "it's like they've never seen a female before!"

Newt turned towards me, it looked like he was trying to hide a smile. I feel like I'm missing some inside joke. "That's because they haven't," he responded, and the smile broke free.

"WHAT?!" How is that possible? I thought the Mazes were mixture of males and females?

"We were a bloody maze of all boys," he said. I thought he could read my mind, did I really like that confused? "Well except for the last few buggin days, that's when Teresa's appeared," he continued.

"Who's Teresa" I questioned, "and why isn't she sitting with you guys"

"We got separated from her when we were brought here, it's probably because they don't want a girl sleeping in a room full of guys," he said as of it were obvious.
I look down at my food trying to understand what he just said. I never got to hear a story form some was actually in the Maze before. "If you keep looking at your food like that you'll drill a hole into it," Newt commented

I snapped my head up, "sorry, I was just thinking"

"About?"

"About how I'm probably more confused about your time in the maze than you are about being here" He smiled at my answer. "And about how a kid here named Aris went through the same type of maze, except all girls and one boy," he seemed lost in thought about my comment, I decided not to bother him anymore.

I took this time to see if the other boys were still staring at me, most of them weren't anymore. Although I did notice Minho with his head leaned back with a cloth on his nose. I guess I hit him harder than I thought because the cloth was soaked through with a hell of a lot of blood. This dumbass obviously didn't know a thing about bloody noses. "If you keep your head like that the bloods going to go down your throat!" I yelled at him. I'm pretty confident that if he did end up drinking some of his blood, he would definitely be throwing it up later.

Minho glared at me, "what are you, a doctor?" He questioned, "and why do you care anyway?"

"I'm not a doctor, I just have common sense and a brain!" I didn't really have an answer to his second question so I was great full when my rat of a father stepped into the room.

He began to call names of a list, once he was done he asked for the called kids to come with him. "Do you know were their going?" Newt whispered in my ear.

Before I could respond Minho yelled, "WHERE ARE THOSE SHANKS GOING,"

To answer Minho's question, I told him, "Nobody knows," he didn't seem to accept this as and answer so I added, "Far away form here." That seemed to shut him up for now.

"You don't seem to scared of Janson," Newt said.

"That's because Im not ," I answer a bit harshly, it's not a topic I like to talk about, "I never have and I never will"

"Why?"

"Because he's the worst pice of crap father ever!"

"Wait, hold on" Minho stated, stupid little ass was listening to me and Newts conversation! I don't get too mad about it because I do it all the time, it's just annoying when I'm the one being eavesdropped on. "Your related to ugly rat man over there?" Any hate I had towards Minho completely disappears when he compares my dad to a rat.

"Yes dummy, I literally just said that" I glared. "Also I 100% agree with your rat comment" I thought Id say something nice to Minho because I've been nothing but mean to him since I've met him, even though he deserved all of it. I know my niceness attempt worked because I soon see a smile on Minho's face. Honestly, if he weren't such an ass, I think we would be good friends.

Before another conversation could start, everyone was dismissed to go back to their rooms.

................
As soon as I get to my room I sit on my bed and grab a book. I still have a couple hours before I could go to sleep, and reading seemed like a good way to kill time. I also read the book as a distracting form today's lunch events. I think I might want to be friends with Newt, and maybe Thomas if I get to knew him better. I have no idea what to do with Minho, though. I wonder if they'll want to be friends with me.

Usually when kids are sent to their rooms there in the with other kids from their maze. So they have people to play games and talk to. But since I didn't come from a maze, I'm all alone.

I'm ok with it though because being alone don't mean I'm lonely

Before I can get too invested in my book, Janson the rat himself walks into my room.

"How was your lunch today, Y/N," He had a look in his eyes that told me he wasn't just he to talk about my day. I also know this because he hasn't asked how my lunch went in like... ever.

"Fine, I guess," I don't really know how to answer his question

He stepped further into my room, "It seems that you have made some friends today?"

"Yeah, maybe," I answered, "I wouldn't say friends yet, their just the first people to talk to me in a while."

"Oh yeah," he smiled, "I forgot you were a loner"

"I'm NOT a loner, I just don't have a problem being alone," I argued, "also people can become annoying real fast and if I stay away from them then I don't have to deal with them." His smile grew bigger, I think I just proved his point about being a loner. "Plus being your daughter doesn't help either!" I finally snapped.

"Anyway, how about you use you loner skills to stay away from your new friends," finally he got to the point of why he came to bother me in the first place. "I don't like them."

"How about No," I begin to lead him out the door, "and you don't like anyone." I decided to tell him one last thing before he left, "Wait dad there's something I need to tell you!"

"What?"

"F*ck you!" I give him the finger and the door shuts with a loud SLAM, right in his face.
