The alarm announcing the arrival of a new Greenie blared into my ears suddenly. Startled, I got out of the Med-Jack hut and ran to the Box where all my friends joined me. I stood beside Newt and Chuck, Minho still being in the Maze.

The deafening sound stopped, and Gally and Newt opened the doors so we could take a look at the new Greenie. I gasped and smiled, seeing a girl lying there.

"Another girl?" Gally exclaimed while Newt was apparently mesmerized by the female at the bottom of the Box. I lightly hit his shoulder and he snapped out of his trance, quickly looking my way with a light blush across his face. I stared at him quizzically and looked back down at the disoriented girl.

I smiled and jumped down so I could grab her hand and bring her out of there.

"Welcome to the Glade Greenie," I said while smiling brightly. Everyone was looking at her in awe, clearly making the new girl uncomfortable.

"Everyone stop staring or I throw you off the Cliff," I glared at the guys, and most of them stopped staring. Whispers could be heard, but some of the guys went back to their usual jobs. Alby, Chuck and Newt made their ways to us, and Alby introduced himself, Newt and Chuck to the Greenie.

"And I'm Liv. It's nice having another girl around," I smiled again. The girl kept shooting glances over at Newt, and I could feel a connection between them. Maybe they knew each other before all this.

"Can you recall anything? Your name maybe?" I asked hopefully. She seemed to be deep in thought after my question but answered a quick 'no'. I looked at her sympathetically and Alby took her to show her around.

I made my way to Newt with a smirk, ready to attack him with questions.

"What was all that about huh? Got something for the new Greenie?" I asked, still smirking.

"What? Pfft, no. Definitely not," he answered, but I could see he was lying.

"Mhmmm, okay. Whatever you say, Newtie," I said jokingly.

"Please stop calling me that," he asked and deadpanned.

"Then stop lying," I tried again.

"Fine. I feel like I know her from somewhere, he said as he stepped closer to me. She seems way too familiar,"

"Yeah, I can feel a connection. Anyway, back to work you Brit," I insisted. He sighed and went back to work while I did the same.

It was now nighttime; we were having a bonfire and the Doors just closed not so long ago. I was sitting with the new Greenie, answering a couple of questions she had. Suddenly, she looked ahead of her and muttered something.

"Katrina," she said.

"What?" I asked confused.

"Katrina. That's my name. I'm Katrina," she looked over at me, a smile apparent on her face.

"Well then, it's nice to meet you Kat. I can call you Kat, right?" I asked unsure.

"Yeah, of course,"

She looked really happy now that she remembered her name, and I showed her around and introduced her to everyone.

"And that's Minho, the Keeper of the Runners. I kinda, might maybe have a thing for him, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't like me back so I try to just forget about it which can be hard sometimes since he's one of my best friends and everything-" I started, and my new friend just looked at me.

I looked over at Minho once again to see him looking up at me. He smiled and waved, and I returned the gesture.

"Haha, yeah. Anyway," I tried changing the subject, but Kat had other plans.

"He definitely likes you," she tried reassuring me, which did not really work by the way.

"He definitely does not. I mean, really. Look at me," I said and chuckled.

Kat deadpanned and looked over at him and back at me.

"Yep, he does. You're just blind," she smirked at me.

We talked like that for a while about everything and nothing. I felt like we knew each other. Like we've been friends forever. When I was with her, I felt... at home. As if we knew each other since birth or something.

That night, I went to sleep thinking about the Greenie. I couldn't shake the feeling of familiarity away.

"Kat! Come with me, I want to show you something," I said enthusiastically.

"Whaaat," she whined but followed anyway.

I brought her to a yard with flowers and benches and trees and a big tree in the middle of it all creating shade at certain places. Newt and Minho were already sitting on a bench close by, waiting for us both to arrive.

She stopped and looked at the place with awe, while I walked towards our other friends.

"Heyyyy," I said, happily making my way towards Minho. I sat down beside him and Kat sat down beside Newt. I looked at the beautiful scenery in front of me, and Newt kissed the top of Kat's head and hugged her close. I smiled at that and sighed.

Minho got up, noticing Newt and Kat's proximity.

"Come on, let's go," he whispered and offered his hand for me to take, deciding on giving them some privacy. I gently took his hand, and we started walking around. I don't know if I'll be able to keep my feelings for him inside for much longer.

I woke up, startled. Was that a dream? No, it felt way too real and detailed to be just a dream. It must've been a memory. I stared at nothing, processing what just happened.
