THE cafeteria was far from quiet, she almost couldn't hear herself think. Belle found it got this way when it was announced that a new group had escaped and been rescued. People that have gone through what they have just wanted a reason to celebrate. Which was understandable but Belle would rather be hidden up in her room.
She didn't like all the sound, she didn't like all the people sitting and laughing. They all looked hopeful, that they thought that this was really a safe haven.
Belle strongly believed that the white building they were trapped in was not a safe place. Having no evidence of such a thing she wasn't going to just walk about and tell people that, it probably wouldn't end well and she knew she was already on a thin line with everyone working around here.
The table she sat at shook as a boy sat down in front of her, not saying a word to her before digging into his food. She didn't have to look up to know who it was, no one else in the building would just randomly sit with her besides Aris. The only other person here that was alone. He had other people, other girls, but they were quickly taken, two of them were taken by some other mystery group as soon as they had got out of the maze. He told her over and over that he knew they were still alive, telling Belle that he was going to find them.
Belle just didn't care enough to tell him that he was wrong, they were dead and he was alone. She couldn't bring herself to believe that they were living, the life they all have been given had be way to complicated so far for something so simple.
Aris stopped eating for a moment, glancing up at the teenager in front of him, her brown hair pretty much covering her whole face. All she did was play with her food, mashing up the mash potatoes even more. "Are you going to eat those?"
"I'm not going to share 'em."
"Well that's just a waste of food. Besides, even though I'm hungry I think you really should eat them," he took another bite of his food. "You're withering away to nothing."
