Y/n's pov

We still haven't found anything and it's been 3 weeks since I started looking. In that time all we've found is another 2 lines that have repeated themselves. Also we've had a new greenie show up. His name is William. He's nothing special, but I showed him the ropes because I was the last greenie. Also I had been itching to get out of the map room. He became a cook with Frypan. Also my period didn't happen last week like it should've. Oh well, that's not a bad thing I'd thought.

Y/n's pov

Chuck and I are sitting in the map room, trying to make shapes, words, anything out of the repeated lines we've found. But no matter what we do, we can't seem to find a use for these lines. "I can't" I yell, tossing the map I'm holding. Chuck doesn't even jump. He's gotten used to my angry fits, which seem to happen more often than usual lately. "It's ok, calm down" He says in a soothing tone, "Go sit outside for a minute" He says that every time. And every time I listen. I go sit on the grass outside, calming my mind, clearing it. I go back inside, my focus, and temper, reset. Chuck's got some maps together and is examining them. Trying something we've already tried multiple times. I walk over, looking at what he's doing. I grab some more maps and add them underneath his. They still make nothing and I sigh. Instead of grabbing another set of maps I grab the notebook that I've had since the beginning and sit on the table, in my usual spot. Chuck assumes his usual position of sitting on the floor on the other side of the room. I read out the first few things and we think about them. My eyes roam the floor, looking over all the maps spread out across it. Chuck does the same. Nothing catches my eye so I read out the next few notes and do the same thing. We keep doing this until we've reached the halfway point in the book. When I read out the next sentence in the book, something catches my eye. I get up off the table and walk over to a set of maps from section 4. The way they're set up makes another line match up with one from section 5 that day. I check the other maps and almost jump up and down in excitement. "What is it?" Chuck askes. I realise I haven't said anything so I explain "this line matches this line from section 5 that day" I say pointing at the lines. His eyes light up and we start checking the other maps. "It only started happening recently" Chuck says after a few minutes "that's probably why we haven't noticed it before" I nod along with his words, having noticed the same thing. "Only in the last... 5 days" I add. I write this down in the notebook, feeling like this discovery could really help, especially if it's combined with some of our other findings. At that moment my stomach rumbles quietly so I stop. "Time for food. Let's go get dinner" I say. We walk out and the cool breeze makes me shiver. When I get to the kitchen, Newt is in line so I go and stand with him. I kiss him on the cheek when I get there and he bends his head down and kisses the top of my head. We grab some food and sit at a table, not talking much. We start eating and I start a conversation, sick of the silence. "How are you going?" I ask, not knowing what else to say. "Good, you? How's freedom searching going?" He replies "Not great. I had to walk out on Chuck again. I feel bad. But we've made some progress" I say my mood rising at the last part. Minho plonks down at the table "What progress?" He asks having obviously only caught the end of the conversation. "Y/n and Chuck have found something" Newt answers "Oh?" He says, perking up and raising his eyebrows. I explain what I found and I see hope enter both boys' eyes. "Y/n" Newt says excitedly "You've got this! It won't be long before you guys work out what all this means. Then we'll be out in no time!" His joy is contagious so I find myself smiling and feeling really hopeful. "Yeah Y/n listen to your boyfriend!" Minho says excitedly. Thats when Chuck walks up. "Boyfriend?" He asks "What?" Newt and I both glare at Minho but he just shrugs. "They're official" He says to Chuck. Chuck eyes brighten at the news "Really?" He asks, looking so happy "I mean it was gonna happen but really?" We nod. His smile gets even bigger as he turns to Minho "OMG" He squeals sounding like a fanboy "They're so cute. Ship it!" He says. "I know right!" Minho says and they go off on an animated conversation about us. "And I thought I was the first girl here" I mumble smiling. Newt just laughs as we go back to eating. But I suddenly feel queasy and don't want to eat, but I do, knowing how hungry I am. I put food in my mouth and swallow it. I finish my food and Newt does too. We walk hand in hand out of the kitchen. We keep walking, trying to get away from everyone. Somehow we end up near the slammer, neither one of us leading us anywhere. We walk around it, almost in a full circle, before Newt takes the lead. He takes us to the homestead. We go to my bed and lay down. We just lay there, facing each other, talking, kissing, until people start coming in.
