Torn

"Where who is?"

*Newts POV*
I wait by the door as Dylan showers, making sure no boy gets in. I can't stop smiling, me and Dylan are back in tact. The feeling of her pinky in mine still lingers. I was too far gone, this girl has got me wrapped around her little finger. Literally. I smile at the thought, but try to hide it as I push it down. I can't stop smiling as I'm kicking at the dirt, my feeling overwhelming.

I look up and see Minho coming my way, "Sup shank, you seen Dylan?" He looks mad, well not really. He looks fine but like he's trying to be mad. "Oh yea. She's in the shower, we made up and she needed someone to stand watch." He goes to walk away but it's like the realization hit him, and he turns back around, "Finally. You shanks were taking forever." I walk up to him and pat him on the shoulder, "It was barely even 24 hours. But yea, it felt like forever." Minho pats my back before turning around and leaving, I forgot to ask what he wanted Dylan for.

I turn back around to find Dylan walking out of the washrooms, her hair is in a nice tight braid along her back and she looks refreshed. I smile at her and she smiles back, walking my way, "Thanks for guarding the door. That would kinda be weird if someone walked in on my showering." I pat her shoulder, trying not to be awkward, "Uh yea, no problem. Oh also Minho was looking for you. I didn't get to ask what he wanted."

She shrugs, "It's fine, I'll find him later. I'm guessing you have to go to work now?" She looks at me with her sad puppy dog eyes, I wish I could just sit and talk to her all day. "Yea, don't want Alby to get on my back. I'll see you at lunch, ok?" She nods, "Got it. Bye blondie." I wave bye, "Bye Dyl." She turns and walks off, leaving me watching her.

*Dylans POV*
Once I make sure Newt isn't watching me I go to find Teresa, I owe her a thank you. After looking around for a little bit I run into Teresa by the garden and hug her. I whisper a, "Thank you." I can feel her smile, and that makes me smile even bigger. I pull away from the hug and smile at her when Minho walks up. He stands there a minute, like he forgot what he was saying, "Oh, uhh Alby wants to finish the gathering and talk about other stuff for you girls."

I look at Teresa and she returns the look but we follow Minho to the main hall. As soon as I walk in I can feel all eyes on me. I go and sit in the chair in the middle of the room, right next to gally, he sorta snarles almost, then looks at alby. "Ok so we already heard Dylan's point of view, now let's hear Gally's." Gally walks to the middle of the room and starts talking, I don't pay much attention, just wanting things to be done with. When he is finally done talking, Alby recaps, "Gally said that he simply just wanted a dance." I shake my head. "Well he could of at least asked. Sure, I get we are in a safe place and all, but that was my first night awake. I didn't know who the hell he was, and he didn't let go of me when I asked." I'm angry if you can't tell.

"Dylan, calm down we already decided that Gally goes in the slammer for a night." I look at him in shock, "A night? If I didn't stop him things could have gotten a lot worse." Alby looks me in the eyes, he sees the fear in my eyes, or he just wants this over to cause he agrees, "Gally is sentenced to 24 hours in the box, with no food. Dylan, I want you to know this is not going unwatched. Hurting a Glader is one of the only rules, you ignore it again and you will be banished. There will be no exceptions since your a girl, of course unless you are protecting yourself from something that should not happen." I nod at him, a shiver going through my spine.

"Ok now for the second cause, please bring in Teresa and Hannah." I watch as two people come and grab Gally's arms, walking him outside of the room. "Ok so as you know there are now three girls in the glade. And for their sake, and partly ours, they are going to share a room in the homestead so no boys can... well you know. We need a room for them to use while we build another one. Will anyone. Volunteer or will I have to do this myself?" I look at Teresa and than at Hannah and walk over next to them. Once I turn around I see a few guys with their hands up.
