Her Anchor || Newt - Maze Runner

Part 7 - Cook

A/n: Sorry for the huge time skip. Honestly, the next chapters was just going to be about Y/n doing the jobs so nothing exciting or important. Sorry that I haven't been posting often too, my mental health has been suffering but I will try for you guys.

Also is there any fans of Chase Atlantic? They are literally the best band to exist. (No hate to any other bands)

~Time Skip - 1.5 months~
Summary:
After trying all the jobs, Y/n was selected as a medjack and cook. She has become quite close with everyone especially Frypan, Newt and Chuck who are her best friends. She also become close with Gally, despite her friends pleas not to. Y/n began developing feelings for Newt and eventually fell hard for him. Another glader, came up whose name is Lucas but he wasn't anything special so Y/n wasn't really close with him.

~Your POV~

'Youuu were busy lying sleeping 'round with other guys'

'And what the hell were we?' I sang back to Frypan

'Tell me we weren't just friends' Frypan scream- sung

'This doesn't make much sense, no'

'But I'm not hurt, I'm tense'

'Cause I'll be fine without you babe' I screamed at the top of my lungs

Even since the radio came up in the box, Frypan and I have been having full karaoke sessions while we cook. It is even better because we have the same music taste so every song he knows, I know and vice versa.

While singing this song (Friends by Chase Atlantic. Highly recommend), I kept thinking back to Newt.

Are we friends? Are we more than friends? What are we? Does he feel the same way?

Frypan waved his sweaty hand in front of my face, bringing me back to reality.

'Don't tell me you're thinking about Newt again?' Frypan mocked

'Shhhh. He might hear you.'

'I'm going to take that as a yes then.'

Frypan being my best friend, is the only person who knew about my crush on Newt, but that won't last long with Frypan's big mouth.

'Just tell him how you feel' said Frypan 'It isn't that hard'

'The chicken is ready' I said, happy I found something to change the topic with. 'I'm going to ring the bell.'

'Ok' replied Frypan, annoyed I changed the topic

I made my way outside as I saw the last glimpse of sunlight vanish over the maze walls. The sunset was truly one of the most beautiful things.

I made my way to the centre of the dining hall as I rang the big bell. Slowly the boys started coming in for dinner. I went back to the kitchen to help Fry hand out dinner. This was probably the best part of being a cook. I could talk with everyone, see who they are going and get any new gossip, which usually involves Gally throwing a tantrum.

As the last boys got their dinner, I got mine and went to go see my friends. At the table sat, Newt, Chuck, Minho and Thomas.

'Hey guys' I said as I sat down next to Chuckie boy

'Hi beautiful' flirted Minho which I rolled my eyes to

Minho and I were close so he flirts with me because he knows it gets on my nerves.

We chatted about everyone's day and how Gally broke another table while having his infamous tantrum.

'I don't know how you are friends with him Y/n' chuckled Thomas

'He is nice to me' I replied

'He has a soft spot for you love' said Newt while chuckling

I am thankful it is dark so Newt wouldn't see my bright red face. No matter how many times he has said that name, I still blush every time.

The other boys start to go in for bed, but we stayed up for a bit. We continued chatting until I saw Chuck starting to close his heavy eyes. I nudged him.

'Lets go to bed' I whispered to him

'Ok' Chuck replied

'Chuck and I are going to go to bed. Goodnight everyone' I announced to the group as I got up with Chuck and left.
