BURDEN OF TOMORROW.└➤ CHAPTER TWO
____
FLAMES CRACKLED in front of Raine as she sipped Gally's signature drink, while sat next to Minho. "What do you think of the new greenie, huh?" Minho asked, turning to the brunette next to him. "He's a complete slinthead." The girl said, without any hesitation whatsoever.
"Why do you hate him so much more than the others? You only just met the guy." Minho questioned. Raine sighed, rolling her eyes "Because he's stupid, he was going to go in the maze until I stopped him which he didn't even thank me for and he grabbed my arm earlier which pissed me off." she answered.
"Oh wow, he didn't thank you for throwing him to the ground? That's a massive surprise." Minho remarked sarcastically, with a laugh which caused Raine to let out her own laugh. "I don't regret doing it." She said when their laughing ceased, "Yeah, it was kinda funny, to be fair." Minho laughed again.
Frypan jogged over interrupting the pair. "Thought you might be hungry." He smiled handing over two meat kebabs, "Thanks, Fry." Raine flashed a quick smile back as she received one of the kebabs.
"Thanks, man." Minho smiled slightly, as Raine dug into the food. Frypan jogged back over to where he previously was and the pair's conversation started back up. "Good, huh?" Minho gestured to the meat. "Yeah, these are the best." Raine sighed, happily. The boy next to her shook his head slightly at his best friend as he took a bite of the kebab himself.
The duo looked up at the sound of footsteps in front of them, "Hey, Newt." Raine said, wiping some fat from the kebab off her lips. "Hey," Newt nodded, "Either of you seen, the greenie anywhere? I can't find him." he asked, a look of concern on his face. Minho frowned turning to look at the girl beside him as she turned too, shrugging at the boy.
"No? I thought he'd be with you, wasn't he following you around like a lost puppy earlier?" Raine replied, looking up at the blonde boy, to which he tilted his head slightly as to say 'that's fair' and said "He was with me but Chuck wanted to talk to him-" Minho cut Newt off, "You ask Chuck?" he asked, which provoked Newt to give him a look. "Of course I asked Chuck, how stupid do you think I am?"
Raine opened her mouth to answer which the blonde boy noticed and shoot her a look before she could so she raised her hands in mock surrender. "Look, can you two just help me find him, please." Newt said, more so looking at Raine because he knew she'd take more convincing. Raine rolled her eyes "-Please." Newt repeated, causing her to sigh and look at Minho who only nodded, standing up.
"Fine." Raine whined, standing up as Newt smiled at her, "Thank you." he said, "Alive?" Raine asked, "What?" Newt's smiled turned down to a frown. "You want him alive? Cause I can do both, I don't mind." Raine said casually, "Alive. Definitely alive." the boy breathed out, nodding.
