Minho opened the door for us when we got the the room. The second the door was open, Newt pulled his hand out of mine. I was hurt and wondered why, but I kept that thought for later. Instead, I walked back into the room, my hand feeling cold. I could feel the boy's eyes on me, but I ingnored them. I sat down in my chair and cleared my throat, then I prepared to tell the whole story to the Keepers. I took a deep breath and hold the story, making a decision to leave out the bit about me and my siblings. I gave them all the information I could.
When I was done, Alby looked at Issy. "What about you?" He questioned her. She shook her head. "All my memories with information in them are the same as Amy's. The only difference is that I have personal memories that she doesn't, and vice versa. My personal memories have no use to you, or our escape." She shrugged. Alby nodded. "Alright then. Gathering closed. Keepers, you know the drill. Tell your workers the news." The Keepers left the room, discussing things with others, preparing to spread the news.
I watched them leave, and heard someone approach. I turned to see Issy smirking at me. "What?" I inquired. "You. Me. My room. Now." I sighed, but let myself be dragged to her room behind her. "I can walk myself, you know." I told her. "I know, I know." She released her hold on my arm and opened the door for me. "After you."
I entered her room and sat down on the edge of her bed, raising my eyebrows at her in question. "What happened in the forest? It must be something, because Newt kept looking over at you and blushing? What happened? Tell me!" Stunned, I sat in silence. I had never seen her like this. "Well - I - We kinda kissed?" I said, preparing for her reaction. Sure enough, she ran around the room, squealing. "That's awesome! I am so jealous!" She was bouncing around. "Uhh... I am leaving now. Bye," I told her before walking out to leave her to her schoolgirl reactions. I shook my head, smiling.
I walked over to Newt and the Track-hoes. I placed my hand on Newt's shoulder, and he looked up at me, looking uncomfortable and flushing a little. "Can I steal you for a sec?" I smiled at the other Track-hoes. "Sure." He nodded at his fellow workers, and stood up. He followed me over to where no other Gladers were within earshot. My smile disappeared when we got there. Newt was shifting uncomfortably on his feet.
"Why are you embarrased to be around me? I mean, seriously, Newt! What did I do?" Something clicked when I realised. "Oh. Now I know. Well, then, Newt, I am sorry I kissed you." I stalked away, mad. I could see hurt written all over his face as I walked away to the Bricknicks to help out as I could see they were struggling with something.
