Song - billionaire by idk lol 😂

The hot summer breeze brushed against my cheeks and gently stroked my soft, blonde hair. The leaves of the gigantic apple tree fell upon me. I was currently busy on gnawing on my fingernails. I do this whenever I'm nervous or eager to know something.
And at the moment It was the eagerness to know if the new greenie was okay. Not that I cared much but just curious. A guy, blonde and thin, newt, approached me. He slid his hands inside a pocket in his pants, and sat down beside me.
I stared plucking the petals of the flower in my hand.
He didn't say anything for a minute until he finally opened his mouth to speak.
"You okay?"
"NO!" I harshly say,
What's the point of asking if someone is okay, when you know they aren't?
"Well I guess you're just angry or maybe you've run out of good jokes to tell." He just laughs it off.
I laugh too.
Well everyone loves my jokes. I myself love them. Because they're too funny like way too funny.
"Well I'm just tired of not knowing my name yet. I mean I wanna be called something that truly belongs to me not what you guys call me."
"Hey what's with calling you "sugar"? You're sweet anyway." Newt squeezes my cheek.
I smack his hand off playfully, he just gets childish sometimes and well I do too.
He stood up,"come on let's do what we're best at!"
"Spreading chaos?" I raise an eyebrow with a devilish smirk.
"You guessed it right!" He winks.
"Ugh I'm too tired pick me up." I whine throwing my hands up in his direction.
"Oh come on sugar, don't get childish now." He chuckles.
I still don't stand up. Newt sighs and puts his hands beneath my arms and pulls me up with a strong force.
I chuckle all along, so does he.
It's safe for me to say that he is the best friend I'll ever find.
"Let's go, we have to set up things for the bonfire too."
"Bonfire?" I ask.
"Yeah, you know the one we do once in a month."
"Yea. Yea. I know. Let's go then."
*********
"What about that one, what was his name again?"
The darkness of the night is enlightened by the bonfire behind me and newt. The silence is erupted by the loud sounds of the gladers cheering and doing what not.
And the peace is destructed by newt and I. Well, we found this huge slingshot somewhere in frypan's bunk so, yeah, we sneaked it out of there.
And now we're finding targets to shoot it to.
Reason?
We don't need a reason for chaos.
I took away the slingshot from him and pointed towards the guy beside Gally. I pulled back the rubber and stone and closed one eye for a good aim.
I let it fly.
Instead of hitting the guy.
It hit Gally's butt.
Before he could turn around and take a good look at who shot it, I shoved the slingshot in newt's hands and ran for my life.
I just stumbled upon everything, even the gladers,but at the moment I didn't really care much. I ran until I was behind a huge log enough to hide me.
My breathing was rapid, just like the day I first came up the box.
Inhale
I try to steady my breathing
Exhale
I sigh out of relief.
"He was literally gonna kil-" I saw the new greenie sitting beside me and I literally screamed my lungs out. He just had that baffled look on his face like, what the hell are you doing?
"Oh my God!" I held my heart. It was like a sudden shock.
"I'm sorry to scare you." He mutters softly.
I wiped away the sweat on my head.
"Well Atleast I didn't die due to the shock, I'm good." I see him smile. It fades away soon, his face is stern again.
"Still confused about everything?" I ask staring at the walls beyond me. It was completely normal to think like this. I felt the same.
"Yes. It's perplexing, that one day you just wake up to a bunch of guys staring at you, with no clue of where you're from or who you are." 
It was like he could feel me, or I could feel him.
"Don't worry, I won't let you feel perplexed anymore. I make up great jokes by the way."
I winked at him before standing up.
"You wanna come out to the heart of the bonfire?"
I place my hands on my hip waiting for an answer.
He stands up and we both walk towards the bonfire. I glance around only to find out newt sitting on a log with one hand on his cheek.
Gally would've probably punched him or something.
"Hey newt you okay over there?"
I smirk.
He shoots a death glare at me and I just happen to ignore it.
The new greenie and I reach the wide circle where we can see Gally and probably Ben or someone fighting.
Well, not the "actual" fighting Just the training fighting thing.
I see Gally smash the guy onto the floor and everyone cheers in his victory.
"Hey greenie you in for a fight?"
This isn't good.
