Thomas didn't have a nightmare this night. As he woke up, the first thing he thought was that Newt was laying next to him, but when he opened his eyes, the blonde boy wasn't there.

No no no, I'm sure I didn't just dream it, right? Thomas thought. There is no way I just dreamed it. He panicked, and felt hot tears forming in his eyes.

"But it seemed so real" He said this loud now.

"What seemed so real Tommy?" Thomas turned around when he heard a voice from behind him. He saw Newt standing there, smiling down at him.

"Tommy, you okay there?" The blonde boy's expression changed, he looked worried now.

Thomas quickly stood up, hugging his confused friend.

"Wow, hey, what happened?" Newt asked as he wrapped his arms around Thomas's back.

"I am sorry, I thought I just dreamed that you are here" Thomas said, he felt the tears roll down on his cheeks.

"Aw, Tommy, look at me, I am here you see? I'm here and you didn't just dream it, okay?" Newt said as he let go of the hug to look at his best friend. He saw the tears in Thomas's face and he wiped them away with his thumb.

"But where did you go?" Thomas asked, he calmed down now.

"When I woke up I was so hungry and I went to have some breakfast. You were still asleep and I didn't woke you up, but I brought a sandwich for you, I thought you would be still asleep." Newt said as he handed the food to Thomas.

"Uh, thank you" He said with a small smile. "And I'm sorry, I overreacted this"
Thomas said as he scratched the back of his head.

"No, no it's okay. I promise from now I will wait until you wake up and then go and have breakfast together" Newt said with a smile on his face.

"Newt, you don't need to-"

"But I want to. I don't want you to panic like this again because of me" Newt said.

"Thanks" Thomas said shyly.

After this they ate their breakfast in silence until Newt spoke up.

"I think I will look for Sonya, I really wanna talk with her"

"Yeah, this is a good idea" Thomas said.

"See you later Tommy" Newt said and he went out of the tent.

______________________

Newt found Sonya easyly, she was talking with Harriet

"Morning ladies" He said as he reached them.

"Good morning" The girls said in sync.

"Can I stole my sister for a short time?"

"Of course you can" Harriet answered with a grin.

"Okay, let's go" Sonya said, smiling at his brother. "Talk to you later" She said to Harriet as they began to walk.

"I think you have some question, right?" Newt said.

"Yes, I have a lot, actually" Sonya said with a little laugh. "So firstly, how did you even realised it? Or recognize me?"

"Well, you didn't change a lot so I recognized you easyly" Newt answered with a smile. "And I remember some of our conversations where I heard your voice too, so it was easy to find out" He said.

"This is so cool you can remember some things. I know I won't, but please tell me everything what you know" Sonya said grinning and look at her brother with a curious face.

"Okay, I start with that when we were just five years olds, and I climbed up to a tree in our yard. I could climb trees well, but you didn't and when you tried you almost fell down" Sonya snorted out a laught at this. "And when I was high, there was a wasp what came near to me and I was scared, I started to move, and I felt down. You ran to the house and came out with our mom. She was such a sweet and caring woman" They smiled each other now. "She bandaged the wound in my leg, and you were mad at me, 'cause you said I shouldn't climb up. That's the end of this one." Newt said when he finished the memory.

"Aw, this was so cute and funny at the same time, thank you that you told me"
The blonde girl said, the smile never leaving her face.

"I have some others. Do you want to hear those too?" Newt already know the answer to his question, but his smile widened when he heard the "Of course!" from Sonya.

Newt told her everything he remembered, all the happy and sad memories too, like how their family went to some tour in the forest near to their house. Sonya was smiling all the time, listening everything Newt said to her.

He told her that too when WICKED killed their parents, and took them away, this was his last memory. Newt felt tears in his eyes because the sad memory, he saw Sonya had them too. They hugged each other, knowing that their parents tried to save them.

"This is all I can remember" Newt said after they let go of the hug.

"Okay, I think we should talk about happier things" Sonya answered, wiping her eyes.

"That is a good idea" Newt said in agreement.

They walked for a while, talk about things from the maze. Then they sat down to the sand and continue the conversation.

"Okay, this gonna be a really bad question but I really want to know this" Sonya said with a laugh.

"Go for it" Newt said, getting curcious by this 'really bad question'

"So uh, you boys never did anything with each other? So like was there someone who liked other glader?"

Newt froze. He really didn't know what should he say for this question. The answer was yes. He heard something that some of them did things with each other, but he never did anything. He just got a crush on someone, someone he call one of his best friend and, he wouldn't ruin it with that he tell him about it.

Anyway he liked Teresa. There was no chance that Thomas would like him back, but Newt kinda liked him from that moment he came up from the box, but he can never admit it.

"I don't know about anything like this" Newt said with a frown. He didn't want to lie to his sister, but he did not want to coming out to her neither.

"And with the girls?" He asked.

"I only know that some of them kissed sometimes but that's all. It would have been better if we had more boys there" Sonya said, laughing.

"Yeah, the same for us just with girls" Newt answered, lying again, because he was totally fine without girls there.

They talked for a while and then they started to heading back to the place.

Newt felt himself being happy. He talked with his sister. He got back his friends, his family. The blonde boy never felt that safe for a long time, and now he felt like he finally home.
