When Newt was brought back to the Glade, Alby seemed to calm down.
He either had a suspicion that I let Newt die or he thought Newt was too attractive to die.
The Gladers stared at us as if I'd broken the rules or something.

Mia's pov-
Gally was very distant lately, even though that was the least of my worries it bothered me too much.
I was made a med jack so I always saw a clumsy builder at least once a week.
I was organising a medical cabinet when Kristina, Jeff and Clint came in with a Glader.
Everyone had a few scratches here and there but nothing serious.
"Mia help me out, Jeff try to explain this to Kristina" Jeff nodded and did as Clint said, leaving the room dragging kris behind him.
That's when I realised the Glader was Newt.

Kristina's pov-
Jeff shut the door as soon as they were both in the hallway.
"Look, if you were any other Glader you would be told to leave and get on with your day but-
"I understand that I should be working, what's wrong with him?" I said
"Well last time I talked to Newt, I told him to take it easy with his leg, running probably fucked it up. It could be broken for all I know"
I sighed and rubbed my temples.
"Jeff, why does he have a limp" I said leaning against the wall.
"I don't think It's my place to answer that" he said
"Well I don't wanna know 'just because', I want to know because I care about this and we could've died" I stood straight again
"I know, you must have a handful of reasons to know, but I'm not the one you should be asking" he said
I knew he was serious about this because he left, so I couldn't argue.

Mia's pov-
"Ok, it's been an early start. Go get yourself something to eat" Clint said said opening the door for me to leave.
"Thanks Clint" I said before I closed the door, nearly running into Kristina.
"Hey, you hungry?" She said
"YES" I ran past her and out into the glade, she soon caught up and we were running together to the kitchen.
"Are you serious" I questioned
"About what?" She said looking at me confused
"Your not tired" I said simply
"Hell no! I could run for hours!" She answered enthusiastically
We entered the kitchen, got bacon and eggs and sat together in the usual spot that we sat in.
"You don't seem yourself" Kristina brother the silence
"Thanks for the observation captain obvious" I said with sass laced through my voice
"Well then, spill."
"Spill... What, your drink?" I didn't want to talk about Gally, anything else...ANYTHING
"No idiot! What's been going on with you, are you fighting with Gally or something? You were like besties" she wasn't gonna back down from this conversation.
"Look, I know you mean well and just care but I really don't feel comfortable talking about my love life" when she didn't reply I realised what Id just said.
"OH MY SHUCKING SHUCK KRISTINA I DIDNT MEAN TO SAY THAT" again... I'm not very self conscious.
All of a sudden I felt sick to my stomach, but not theoretically.
I ran away from our spot and to the doorway only to run into a shady Gally. I felt tears form in my eyes and quickly shoved him out of the way, he grabbed my arm but I shook his hand away.
I didn't know what was wrong with me, I felt all mixed up inside.
I didn't know where to go so I went and hid in the lookout tower.

I probably sat there for hours, I felt sick to my stomach and I had a pounding headache. What's wrong with me!? After a while of thinking about it, I started to remember.
How me and Gally got drunk and messed up the kitchen,
Throwing the pans.

and doin the dirty...

Then I thought. Does Gally feel guilty or something?
Maybe. For all I knew, he was just getting horny, even though his ex died a month ago. Maybe the rumour of her being pregnant was getting to his head or something.
Slight sadness turned into frustration, and then I found myself heading in the direction of where Gally and his minions were working.
I grabbed him by the arm not caring if I was interrupting anything.
When we were alone he ripped his arm from my grasp.
"What is with you!" I didn't want to seem rude but I felt on edge.
"What!? I was just working until you came over and interrupted"
I rolled my eyes at how casual he was trying to seem.
"Oh I'm so sorry captain Gally! but I'm sure you'll live" his gaze hardened when I finished
"So did you just bring me here to attempt to insult me?" His eyes narrowed
"your so distant-
"Look, that night was a mistake" he interrupted
"I know it's only been a month but your girlfriends dead, and Clint doesn't think she was pregnant so I don't know what your worried about"
"DOES IT LOOK LIKE I KNOW WHAT TO!?" He snapped

I couldn't hold it in anymore, I tried to get away but the urge to vomit rushed over.
"Mia?" It was sweet that he seemed to care but I didn't want his help if he doesn't even want to talk to me in general.
I got on my knees trying not to get any vomit on myself.
I was kinda sad, I really liked frypans bacon.
Gally came and held my hair, why did he care all of a sudden!?
When I was finished, I sat up
"That's it!" I broke the sudden silence
"What's it-
"I don't like guys anymore! Your too confusing!"
Gally laughed at my statement, but I gave him a serious look.
"You are not changing your sexual appeal" he seemed shocked
"Yes I am" I was just messing around but I wanted to see his reaction when he thought I was serious.
"Well then I'll be honest" he said pulling me into a hug.
"Please do" I just wanted to hear what he wanted to say and get it over with.
"Ok, if you didn't just puke I would totally kiss you"
