WARNING: Maze Runner spoilers up ahead!!!

It's been a few hours since I took my bath and I was now laying on Oscar's couch with an ice pack on my stomach while taking a nap. I came next door to help them clean up, but Antonio kept yelling at me to lay down because I kept bending over to pick up trash. Something about it being bad for healing?

I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing. I looked around for it and eventually found it, then propped myself up on my elbows. I felt fingers drawing shapes on my ankles as I answered the phone without even checking it.

"Hello, freeridge postal mail service. You stamp it, we ship it. How can I help you?" I said formally as I heard chuckling from behind me but I was too tired to care. My head kept bobbing as I fought to stay awake. On the other end of the phone Im only met with angry screams. I quickly move the phone away from my ear so my ear drums don't explode.

"WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU?!?!" Monse screamed.

"What are you talking about?" I asked with a yawn while wiping the tired out of my eyes.

"I told you and Ruby to be at Dwaynes joint an hour ago! Why haven't you answered any of my texts? Where are you?" Her voice became more calm as she continued to speak.

"Shit. I forgot about that." I rolled over on my back looking up at the ceiling. "I fell asleep at Caesar's. That's why I didn't I get your texts."

"That's fine. Do you think you can still possibly make it?" She asked.

"No I'm sorry. Antonio has me on house arrest right now, and..." I put my free hand on my ribs and hissed at the sudden contact. While I was thinking of a lie I sighed. I really didn't want to lie to her. "My period cramps are killing me. Their so bad right now that I can't get up from the couch at the moment." The fingers continued to swirl designs on my ankles an I heard another chuckle. I sat up while keeping my feet on top of the persons lap only to be met with Oscars brown eyes. He smiled deviously at me while I raised an eyebrow at him.

"Damn, I'm sorry. Let me know if you need to borrow my hot pad, girl. Take some pain meds, okay?"

"Okay, I will. I'm sorry I can't make it." I told her while still making eye contact with Oscar who smirked at me.

(This is true guys. people with damaged ribs can't, or aren't supposed to be walking long distances. It takes longer to heal.)

"No, it's fine. I completely understand. Now Ruby on the other hand he doesn't have an excuse, unless he also has a uterus." She told me.

"You know sometimes I wonder if he does." I laughed as I glanced down at my ankles to see Oscar still rubbing them, then looked back up at him. I glanced down at his lips. Damn those look good. Shit! Remember Ximena he's off limits. I quickly stand up snapping myself out of a trance and run my hand through my hair, walking away from him and into the kitchen.

"Alright well let me let you go. I'm gonna call Ruby." She told me. I saw Antonio's lighter and pack of blunts sitting on the table and grabbed it.

"Alright babe see you later." I hung up my phone and put in my back pocket. Taking a blunt and placing it between my lips I grab Antonio's lighter and light it. I take a long drag and hold it in my mouth before blowing it out.

"Period cramps, huh?" Oscar asked while sitting down at the table and I handed him my blunt which he gladly excepted.

"I can't let them know just yet. I mean monse freaked out when she found out Caesar got jumped in himself. Just imagine how berserk she would go if she found out we both are actually in." I told him as I sat down beside him.
