That's my keeper

3.

"Okay, so the gathering is over, she stays." Alby said.

You just think so.

We just arrived, I guess they didn't want me to hear anything important. It doesn't matter, I am still leaving.

"You'll get the tour tomorrow morning. Now go get some lunch, Newt, keep an eye on her." Alby said with a grin. He turned back to me:

"If you remember anything, you'll tell us." I nodded. I think I'll keep my mouth shut for a while, he doesn't seem so nice.

Jeff and Newt took me to a sort of canteen. Jeff placed a plate in front of me and I didn't touch it.

"What's the matter greenie, you're not hungry?" Newt asked. I didn't answer. I barely ate with Jeff earlier only because he forced me to. What if they are poisoning me ?

"She doesn't trust us. I don't know what she might think, as I haven't heard a word from her since she came here. But I suppose she doesn't like us very much."

I rolled my eyes, good job, genius. Newt nodded and started explaining that I'll take his room for the night, since I am the only girl. He seemed a bit concerned that he wouldn't convince another boy - Minho I think he said - to give up their room.

I sighed. I have to get out of this place. They don't seem agressive... but I simply can't stay here. I have to go back wherever I came from, my place is definitely not here. Newt told me to go exploring the glade after that, since he was busy.

So they aren't kidnappers, they would at least keep me locked. Or they are really bad at this, thank god. I started walking towards the closest exit, assuming that "the glade" could be more than the actual glade I can see. Well I knew it wasn't, but Newt wasn't clear sooo...

My eyes scanned the exit, in 2 hours it should be dark and they won't find me there. I didn't rush, trying to act normally. I was fascinated by those huge walls, thinking about all the possible things that could be out there. I didn't even heard the steps behind me untill I found myself down in the grass with someone over me.

My eyes widened as I started screaming. I shouldn't have left my guard down.

"Let me go! For fuck's sake! Don't touch me!"

I saw people gathering around, why don't they help me?!

"Calm down, greenie! where do you think you were going ? " I didn't recognise the voice.

"Get off her, Minho." I heard Alby saying. Thank god.

"Why do you have to stop the fun all the time?" Minho said as he got off me and I turned around. I stood up.

"That's your idea of fun?!" I screamed back.

"Oh, look, she talks." Alby said. "Greenie, it seems your idea of fun is going into the maze."

"A...maze?" I asked. Suddenly, it didn't seem such a good idea to go in there, maybe I should wait and gather information.

"You sure are one of a kind, greenie." Minho said laughing. His laugh annoyed me more than anything.

"How did you realize that, genius? The fact that I am a girl gave me up?!" I replied with a frown.

Minho looked even more amused. I continued.

"Next time you try to rape someone, better not do it in front of everyone." With that he stopped laughing and so did everybody else.

For a minute, it was an awkward silence. Then Newt spoke.

"now, that explains why she doesn't trusts us."

"Yeah, well listen, no one is trying to rape you..." Alby added uncomfortable.

"Especially not me." Minho finished with a smile. I declare this man the most annoying of all. Officially.

"You have the face for that." I said not looking towards him. With that all the boys around started laughing except for him.

I smiled in victory. I was surrounded and I couldn't run, though.

I looked around and then I saw that boy again. The one who catched me yesterday, when I ran.

Thomas.
