Lovers Maze

Official

Chapter Fourteen

I stand in the meeting hall with everyone "so, Minho, you were there with him. What do you think we should we do?" I ask.

Minho shrugs "well, whilst I turned tail and ran this dumb shank saved Alby's life, so I say we make him a Runner"

I nod in approval "he needs to be punished" Gally protests.

Newt nods "the night in the box then"

"What! You can't the serious! He'll just run back out there again" he protests again.

I nod "you're right" I say and he relaxes.

Newt nods "we can't have non Runners running around in the Maze like idiots" he begins and Gally nods smirking, "so, let's make this official, starting tomorrow. You're a Runner" he says.

Gallys expression drops and it's priceless, he shakes his head in disapproval and storms out of the room. Minho nods shaking Thomas' hand and I exit the place with Newt at my side. It rocks being in charge.

Newt turns to me "Billie, can I talk to you?" He asks holding out his hand.

I nod slowly and hand it, he entwines our fingers and guides me toward the Dead Heads.

As we enter I turn to him "what?" I ask smiling softly.

"What do you remember about us?" He asks as I lean against a tree.

"Erm, we were a couple... I think" I say slowly and carefully.

He nods smiling, "each night I dream of you and our past"

I smile as he comes over towering over me "what about?"

"You, singing."

He leans forward and entwines our fingers "I'm going to kiss you" He says softly, our lips inches away.

I nod smiling "I'm not stopping you" I whisper.

His lips crash into mine and I close my eyes melting into the kiss. Fireworks explode in my stomach and I feel the images of my past with him return to me slowly.

I smile into the kiss and his tongue enters my mouth and beings to explore. He pulls away "I think I love you" he whispers resting his forehead on mine.

I smile and peck his lips "I think I love you too"

I pull away and I begin to make my way toward the Homestead, I have a gut feeling in my stomach something bad is happening.

"Hey!" Newt shouts from behind me, leaves crunching under his feet as he runs.

I turn slightly "something's going on" I say simply.

I get to the Homestead and I turn to see Gally leading Thomas to the pit "why is he going in there?" I ask confused.

"That's his punishment remember"

I nod "ohhhh yeah, up early tomorrow Tommy, you and Minho are going in for more clues" I say smiling and turn around heading for the Kitchens to make dinner like I promised Fry.
