When I wake the next morning I'm eager to be let out and I smile when I see Newt, Alby, and Gally coming towards the pit. "Morning fellas," I call my eyes lingering on Newt's wide smile before drifting to the bruise on a brooding Gally, I eventually lock eyes with Alby knowing I have to get back on his good side. "You think you can go without hitting anyone today?" Alby asks me and I nod as he unlocks the door and I climb out. I go to Gally getting ready to play an award-winning performance, "Although you are a pain in my ass, I'm sorry for hitting you," I tell him and I have to fight the slight smile that flickers to the corner of my mouth.

Gally glares at me "That's klunk. I don't care about your apology you stupid shank," he tells me before looking to Alby "I'm going to the homestead I can't be around this," he says jeering a thumb at me and I gnash my teeth together and have to fight the overwhelming urge to jump on him. Alby nods and Gally takes his leave and I glare in his direction good riddance, but when I look at Alby I can see he wasn't moved by my performance either. This is going to be a long day, Alby puts me with the sloppers and denies me the company of a teacher.

The keeper of the sloppers gave me a bucket of cleaning supplies and introduced me to the glad showers, and I shudder at the sight of the disgusting area. What's worse than being stuck in the middle of a maze with teenage boys you ask? Cleaning up after them. I gag as I pull hair and sludge out of a shower drain, and I hear a snicker behind me to see Newt leaning against the doorway. "I guess you don't want to be a slopper then?" he asks me and I turn up my nose with a grimace "Definitely not," I answer back and he smiles. 

"I finished up my tasks early, could you use a hand?" he asks and I nod vigorously for two reasons one, the idea of cleaning all six stalls by myself is a nightmare unlike any I've imagined. Two, I like the way I feel when Newt is around, I don't want to sound cliche, but I have to admit that I think he's cute and sweet. Newt pulls up his sleeves and comes down beside me, he seems confident until his hand is fishing down the drain like mine was. "Bloody hell, this is disgusting," he tells me and I laugh, "I know I can only imagine what this sludge is," I tell him and Newt fakes a gag. 

"Don't share any of your ideas with me, I'm already going to see this is my nightmares," he tells me and I smile at him "Thank you Newt, I really appreciate the help," I tell him and he shakes his head "Don't mention it, love," he says pulling up the unknown sludge and dropping it into the bucket. We work together joking and laughing until a tall Asian boy with dark black hair enters the bathhouse. "Mind clearing a stall Newtie," he says smiling at Newt before his attention turns to me "Well hello shebean, you are even more beautiful than the rumors," he tells me and I blush slightly.

"And you are?" I ask and he grabs his chest faking hurt "Newt, you didn't tell her about your best friend, I'm shocked," he tells Newt, and Newt smiles and rolls his eyes. "(Y/n) This is Minho keeper of the runners," he tells me and Minho raises his eyebrows with a smirk "I'm glad we are finally formally introduced," he says to me and I smile at the boy. "Nice to meet you, Minho,"
