worth it|newt maze runner

0.1

Disclaimer~ I do not own the Maze Runner because if I did, I would mention that part where Alby sings in the shower and Gally cries himself to sleep every night.

Newt's POV

I know I said I would never do it again. I just couldn't help it. Every second spent in the Glade was horrible. I just wanted to make sure I didn't have to spend one more.

The first time I tried, I attempted to jump off the maze wall. When I was still a runner...

This time I decided that I would do the same. No surprise there. If Minho found me like he did the first time, it would already be too late. As soon as the doors open I would sprint out into Minho's section, unnoticed, and run to the end of his section, right where he stops for lunch.

Minho wouldn't find me until mid-day and that's perfectly alright with me. I just want it to be over with. Every second of my life was horrible. It sucked. I hated it. I hate myself.

I hate my life.

Violet's POV

I'd really hate for it to end at the beginning but it looks like I have no choice.

I know I've told myself that I would never do it. I just can't help it. Every second. Every minute. Every hour, day, week, month. Every year spent in the Glade was horrible. I just wanted to make sure I wouldn't have to put up with it for one more moment.

I had been in the Glade for a year and a half. A year and a half of being the only girl. A year and a half or torture. A year and a half of hating my life and everything in it. Of hating my self.

No one has ever noticed me. Ever. Out of the fifty or sixty boys in the Glade, no one has ever tried to notice me.

As the golden sun began to peak just above the east maze wall, my eyes opened.

I wasn't particularly in a happy mood when I woke up. But, you'd of all people know why.

I was a med-jack in the Glade and worked with Clint and Jeff. Clint was my friend during work, but any other hour of the day, I was just a waste of space to him. Just as I was to everyone else.

Sure, when I first came to the Glade, I got to meet some people, but none of them were ever kept as my friend.

I sat up on my hammock because even though I was the only girl in the Glade, I didn't have my own room. I suppose that's a complaint for later. If there is a later.

I looked down to the right of my hammock and saw my black combat boots. I bent over, picked them up, and pulled them onto my feet. I tied up the laces and stood up.

I looked around the Glade and saw no one else was up yet but I expect the runners and Alby and Newt to get up pretty soon since they have to be up before everyone else. You know, the whole leader and second in command thing really could be annoying at times, I'm sure.

I've always wanted to be a runner, but eh. When I became a med-jack (just off of matter of me being a f***ing girl), I lost hope of becoming a runner.

I always had athletic ability and I was pretty fast. Not as fast as Minho but faster than some of the runners.

I started walking the perimeter of the Glade as an early morning walk hopefully for the last time.

As the familiar rumble of the maze walls began to sound, I started to become more alert.

I watched as the runners and Newt and Alby woke up and came walking to the kitchen for breakfast. I didn't bother with any breakfast because I wouldn't need it in a few hours when it was all over. Newt looked particularly off but nobody paid any mind to it, so neither did I.

About five minutes later, I slipped out of the grasp of the Glade and out into the freedom of the maze. I broke out into a sprint and the adrenaline hit me hard.

I decided that I would head to the end of Minho's section and jump off the wall there. I wasn't a master of the maze like Minho, but I knew how to solve a maze equation so this was basically the equivalent. Only not. Eh.

=+=+=+=

A few hours later after the runners were in the maze and the Gladers were all hard at work, I finally arrived at my final destination.

I stopped for a moment to try and slow my breathing. 'Think happy thoughts' I thought to myself.

No good. The only things that came to mind is how when I jumped, no one would notice, much less care.

I turned and began to climb the vines that rested up against the cobblestone wall while thinking about how worthless I am.

I finally reached as high as I could go and grasped the vine holding my up. I saw a ledge that stuck out from the wall and shimmied over there. It was somewhat large and if anyone else was standing there, you could probably just barely make out the hem of their body.

Oh well. I suppose it's time to jump. "Goodbye world!" I shouted out into the maze, listening to my echo for a moment.

I leaned forwards, not hesitating for one moment. My leg began to fall off and I grabbed a vine to steady myself.

If I'm doing this, I'm doing it by my terms. I leaned forward and lifted my left leg.

I closed my eyes, just feeling the cool breeze brush up against my body.

Then, a voice came from behind me. Oh s***. It was deep and commanding like it had been a leader for some time.

It said: "What are you doing up here?" In a soft, small yet demanding voice. Oh crap.

Well there it is my sweet little lovelies! The first chapter of Worth It is finally up! It's like twelve thirty in the morning for me so I had better get to sleep.
