"Okay," He says facing me. "I don't know why but the box came up today. It wasn't supposed to. Now I'm confused because I don't know how to deal with it. And there's another boy, a new Greenie."

I walk closer to him, and we are about two feet apart. "Everything's going to be okay." I tell him, looking up into his chocolate brown eyes, his fluffy hair in the way. "It's okay. We will figure this out."

"Thank you, y/n. That makes me feel better, especially when it comes from you." He says as he runs his fingers through his hair. He smiled at me and I blushed. He opened his arms, gesturing he wanted a hug. I hugged him and I felt his warmth on me. I pulled away from the hug, face red.
"You always make me better, y/n." He whispered softly. Hearing him say my name sent shivers up my spine.

"I will always be here if you want to talk." I said, taking a step closer to him. I glanced down at his lips by accident.

"Can I kiss you?" He asked me.

"What?" I said.

"Can I kiss you?" He asked, again.

"Yes."

He put his left hand on my waist, pulling me in and his right hand travelled up to my neck. I blushed furiously, and put my hand on his neck. Our lips met each other and I could feel his warm breath on me. Our lips still locked, he walks forward so I back up, my spine being pressed against a tree.

"Are you sure this is okay?" He asked me, pulling away from the kiss.

"Yes I'm sure. I want to, I promise." I say.

He smiles and I pull him back in, our lips meeting again. The kiss becomes more passionate and he grunts a little. His hands are on my waist and my hands in his hair, and I accidentally let out a quiet moan. He smells like mint, and it smells good. The kiss eventually slows down and we pull away from each other. My eyes flutter open with excitement and a smile forms on Newts face.
"I should uhh-um get back to work." I say, my voice cracking a little.

"Oh, yeah of course." He says. "Thanks for talking with me; it made me feel better. Thanks, love." He looked at my lips one last time before walking back to the garden.
A shiver was sent up my body and the tingling feeling was back. I could still feel his hands on my neck, on my waist. I wanted more.

I stood in front of the giant walls of the Maze. The ivy was growing insanely and a slight smell of lunch was in the air. Frypans cooking was always amazing. I took in a big breath and took one step closer to the Maze.

"What the hell are you doing?!" A voiced yelled at me from behind. Minho was running up to me and he didn't look happy. "What are you doing?!"

I didn't want to tell him what I was thinking, but I had a weird feeling I could trust him, with anything, really. "I um, I'm going back into the Maze." I said, a little nervous about what he would say.

"What is this with you, y/n? A death wish or something?! Huh? You just got out and now u want back in?! What is up with your mind?!" He half screamed, frustrated.

"Ok look, I know it sounds kind of insane; I get that. But Newt said that no one's lived to see a Griever and lived to tell about it, correct? Minho, now we have one. Are you telling me you're not just a little bit curious? It's dead, it ain't gonna hurt us. I was just gonna check it out." I stated.

Minho crossed his arms in annoyance. He shook his head and laughed a little. "What are you gonna do, y/n? You gonna go out there all by yourself and dissect that fucking monster? You are crazy."

"Whatever, doesn't matter. I'm going out there because I fucking want to and you ain't gonna stop me."

"You're going to get banished if you ignore the rules, y/n. You can't just do crazy shit and expect people to not care because that's not how it works. We need rules and to all follow those guidelines to maintain this place." He told me, stepping in between me and the Maze entrance.

I sighed. "Have the other Runners left yet?" I asked him.

His mouth opened a little then closed, and he furrowed his brows. "The other Runners quit this morning." He nodded to where the Runners were sitting, chatting. "After Alby got stung, they sure ain't in a hurry to get back out there. How about you? Why do you want to go back into the Maze so eagerly?" He said.

"Well, I think it's time to find what we are really up against."

Minho sighed. "Meet me in the woods in half an hour."
