The boys above the box held there hands out to the pair indicating them to grab hold of them for help.The boy was the first to raise his hand heaving himself out the box with the help of the boys before dusting himself off.She stared at him worriedly watching him spin around in a circle like a puppy trying to bite its tail. "Holy shit." He muttered to himself causing her to back away only to bump into someone. "Oh sorry,completely forgot u were here." She said quietly. "No worries! Let me help you up. And don't worry you're safe,i swear." Newt purked up almost a bit to cheerfully.It brought her comfort knowing that she was safe with him atleast.Walking closer to the edge of the box, Newt knelt to the floor tapping his knee for her to stand on while the boys yet again knelt down to help her. If the situation was different i would of found this creepy.She thought to herself.Once she had gotten up she fixed her shirt so no skin was showing at her stomach, after a while she then mimicked the boys reaction. Now she understood why he did it this place was astonishing, she hadn't imagined anything like this when she was in the box. It looked almost magical to the girl. Well. That was until her eyes laid onto the eerie walls that lurked in a perfect square around the field. "Oh my fuck." She whispered in disbelief. Suddenly, her eyes searched for the boy sprinting over to where he was standing. She stood behind him frightened by the sight using him like a shield away from the horrors that lurked in the air.The boy didn't try comfort her because he was also terrified of what he was seeing so instead he reached backwards searching for the girls hand for his own comfort. The boy hated physical touch, but something about her hand felt almost familiar, warm and safe.
"What is this?" She whispered to the boy infront of her squeezing his hand.The boy let out a shaky breath,"I have no clue." She knew better than to say anymore looking back at the 6 boys who all let them take in the surroundings. Letting go of the boys hand, she treaded lightly on the grass like she was scared to damage it before approaching the group.
"Can someone tell us what the hell this is?" She yelled surprising her aswell as everyone else like it wasn't even her talking. "Please." She added looking to the floor whispering. The group smiled at her before speaking to the pair who now stood next to eachother calm.The tall dark skinned man was the first to speak."We call it the Glade.Its where we eat,sleep and work. We're not all sure how it totally works yet but so far it's going good. Just know you're safe with us and we have to protect eachother no matter what because it's all we've got. Okay?" He finished raising an eyebrow. She looked to Newt who nodded so she agreed along with the boy who clearly waited for her reply first. "Great,so green beans this is Minho." He said pointing towards a very attractive boy who didn't look any older than 15. "Hey nice to meet you both.Nice to know we have 2 other Brits around here!" He smiled reaching out and shaking our hands with a smile which they returned laughing at his reaction to me and the boy also being British. "You already know Newt here." We nodded. "This is Siggy but we call him Frypan as he is our cook and seemed more fitting." She laughed shaking his hand as he smiled at her. "Lovely to meet you both." He said with a toothy grin. He looked the type of boy who you could trust with your whole life so she decided that they would be good friends.
"This is Lorenzo, he's our builder, we'll sort of." The boy who was still yet unknown to them let out a wheeze slapping Lorenzos shoulder. The boy didn't even bat an eye lid to this action so they guessed this was how they always were. "Hey, it's nice to have more people here. It was starting to get lonley." He then looked directly at the boy beside him who just smiled widely not even taking offence to the dig Lorenzo just gave him. "I'm Andrew. Sorry about him, he's in a bit of a mood. He still can't build after 2 months." Andrew laughed at himself nudging his friend beside him finally gaining a smile from him.Her and the boy beside her looked at eachother with a knowing glance. They had to be friends with the pair, they had a personality and that's what they needed in this place right now. "And i'm Alby the leader, Happy to have u here." He smiled nodding. "Do you remember you're names yet?" He asked and almost instantly she replied. "Demitria." She mumbled in frustration obviously hating the name . The boys all welcomed her giving her little hugs all but one. The boy she came up with.Looking up to the boy, she saw the light dance across his face when he was looking at the Glade around him. He then looked down to her offering her a small comforting smile which she knew it said 'We're going to be okay'
"It's nice to know who i came up with Demitria." He said giving her a hug that she immediately returned breathing in his scent. It was a mix between sweat and lavender but for some reason she found that comforting.Him saying her name didn't feel right to him.It was a mystery that probably wasn't going to be solved anytime soon.
"Hey what's behind them walls." The boy next to her asked looking towards them. Alby sighed shaking his head. That can't be good. "Nothing good i'm afraid we will tell you everything you need to know tomorrow i promise.So green beans as there's not much to do so i'm just gonna be blunt with your jobs." He said a smile still on his face but still remaining serious. He was a good leader he knew what he was doing and they both admired him for that.But what he said about 'Nothing good' scared the pair more than they let on. "You're going to be builders."
The girls face dropped when he said it. How on earth will she be able to build buildings and all that. She looked down and her body noticing how small and weak she looked. "You sure you want me to be a builder." She asked raising an eyebrow at the group. Alby chuckled shaking his head placing a hand on her shoulder pointing to a direction. "We have set up a new station for the next greenies and we said they'd be builders and i'm sure you'll be just fine besides you won't be alone. He looks strong enough to do most the work if you need it for heavy lifting." A throat cleared behind them which happpened to be Lorenezo and Andrew. "Oh and you have these shanks to keep you company." Alby gave a knowing glance to the boys who scoffed at the boy throwing their arms around their shoulders. "We're going to be a great team.You my friend, you're the keeper of the builders." Lorenzo turned around and whistled towards Alby. "You hear that Albs, i give up role as keeper and give it to this beautiful boy." Alby just stuck his thumb up at the interaction as the little group they had just formed started giggling to themselves. The girl felt the boys tall body loom over her. "So when do we start." The boy added looking exhausted. "Tomorrow my friend you both look exhausted and it's getting late." Andrew smiled walking away to hammocks in the corner of the Glade. "Get some sleep."
They all walked slowly behind until the greenies both stopped in sync.Her head started pounding as she gripped onto her head groaning when she saw the boy do the exact same. That's when it hit her. Her name is coming back. She knew her real name. But yet she couldn't exactly remember it,just the first letter.The boy looked at her with curiosity in his eyes and all the girl had to do was nod for him to know what happened."HEY GUYS." He yelled jogging up behind them quickly. The boys all turned on their heels in caution. "I remember my name!" The boy said almost excitedly making the boys smile and clap asking him for the name."My names Gally." He cheered almost pleased with his name but what confused her is why he looked pleased. She knew her name but it's not the right name and she knew that it's almost like her name is on the tip of her tounge but it's not there.The boys turned to look at her confused as she whispered.She looked up at the boys who looked like someone had just died. She smiled half heartendly walking past them a little disappointed she didn't get her real name. The boys frowned at the her actions and cheered for Gally once again approaching the hammocks.
"Night boys and our first girl." The pair got in the hammocks closest together that they may aswell be touching. Gally smiled giving Demitria's hand a light squeeze before closing his eyes drifting off into a deep and well needed sleep. Demitria didn't move to face the other direction instead she stayed looking at Gally for a moment.He truly was a beautiful boy she thought to herself smiling at the sound of soft snores escaping his lips. In that moment Demitria knew she'd be fine. Reaching out,she grabbed onto Gally's hand waking him up a little only to bring her hand closer towards him before the two both fell asleep for the night. It was going to be okay.
