This morning I woke up feeling better than yesterday. I took my breakfast and went straight to the Med-hut.

"Morning greenie". Clint said while cleaning a Slicer's cut.

"Morning". I replied, sitting down in a chair.

I started eating my breakfast. No one would come this early I hoped.

But something proved me wrong. Someone in the door proved me wrong.

"Clint, Jeff got another bruise". The boy said.

"The greenie can treat you". Clint said motioning him, a chair in front of me. "Can you take this? You will eat later".

"Yeah, sure". I nodded.

"Stella right?" The boy said when he sat down.

"Yeah," I looked up. His hair was brown and his eyes too. His jawline was perfect. That boy was for sure good-looking.

"I'm Nolan. Normally I would have offered you to shake my hand but I got injured". He said letting out a small laugh. I chuckled too.

"So what happened?" I said inspecting his hand.

"Today I had a day off and I wanted to help Gally around with building. You can see that I'm not that good with hammers and I bruised myself. He started shouting and sending me away".

"I had somehow the same experience". I smiled at the boy.

"That's a little different than Stella's story" Jeff spoke. "He brought her here himself". Jeff said it almost in disbelief. "Plus he stayed the whole sucking treatment!"

"Maybe he likes you". Nolan looked at me smiling revealing his teeth.

"Guys, Gally doesn't like me like that. Besides I see him as a good friend". I sighed shaking my head.

"Well, he is not the only one". Nolan shrugged.

"What do you mean?" I gave him a questioning look and I already had finished treating his hand.

"That's for you to find out". He said while getting up.

As he was walking off I spoke. "Hey Nolan" the boy turned around.

"Yeah?"

"What is your job?"

"Runner". With that, he disappeared out of the Med-hut.

The day passed by quickly. Not many people came to the Med-hut today. Without noticing how the time passed, it was time for lunch.

I went to get lunch. The past week I wasn't eating much. Hopefully, Newt helped me, and now I can eat again. But I couldn't finish a full meal.

I looked around and didn't see Newt or Minho anywhere. My eyes caught someone else.

Nolan.

He was sitting alone so I walked towards him.

"Hey, can I join you?" I spoke and he looked up.

"Sure". He smiled motioning for me right sir across him.

"So how long have you been here?" I asked poking on my food with the fork.

"Around a year I think". He nodded.

"And how did you become a Runner?"

"I wasn't doing good at the other jobs and almost turned out to be a Slopper, but I begged Minho for a training and I turned out to be a Runner".
