Have A Little Hope [TMR Minho Fanfiction]

11.Out At Night

I was awoken by Minho getting ready. He had his shirt off, but sadly I was facing his back. After he gets his shirt on he turns around and sees that I'm awake.

"Good morning, beautiful" he smiled.

I felt my self going red and pushed myself into a tight hug with him. He pulled away and kissed my forehead.

"Gotta get out now, with Alby"

What? Why was Alby going? "Why is Alby going?" I asked

"I was going to tell you last night but all the stuff with the newbie I couldn't, but we found a dead Griever. Me and Alby are goin to check it out. Wish us luck"

Wow, a dead griever? But, how did it just die? I jumped out of bed and put on some denim shorts. "Well, I'm going to see you off then" I smile and start walking out the door, Minho following behind me. We left the homestead and saw Alby and Newt in the distance. "Is Newt going too?"

"Nope, he's just seeing Alby off"

He walked side by side, and his hand brushed off of mine, before intwining our hands with eachother. We both look at eachother and smile. Damn, I was really small compared to him. I got to his chin at least.

Finally we reached Alby and Newt, but we're quite early, because the doors don't open until five minutes. So it gave us time to talk. Then the doors started to open and the screeching noise of stone rolling off stone was heard.

"Good bye" I head Minho say, before he took my hands and kissed me. He was kissing me, and I think it was the first time in ages. I felt my self blushing and felt huge butterfly's in my stomach. I love this guy so much. After about five seconds of us just kissing, Newt chimed in with "Ew, come on Minho. You can do all that bloody later" which made me smile and Minho chuckle. He gave me one last hug before whispering "I love you"

"I love you too" I replied, And he ran into the maze with Alby.

Me and Newt walked back to the homestead together. Frypan should be starting with the food and everyone should be waking up.

"Do you think the griever is gonna help us get out?" I ask, because who knows.

"I don't know, but I can tell you it's the first griever that we've ever found. And dead aswell. God knows how it died" I nod in reply.

How the hell did it die? I'm sure it couldn't have just died and left there to be found? We walk into the homestead and say hey to Frypan who is starting breakfast. I decide to go out to my favorite spot, the tree house. I normally go up there when I'm bored or sad. I waited until some called for breakfast and went down.

I go and get my breakfast, this time porridge. I took my bowl and thanked Frypan as usual and go sit beside the new boy. He looked very lonely so why not? As I sat down beside him he looked a bit surprised that I was sitting beside him. "Hey, remember your name yet?" I ask, eager to find out his name. I know what it's like to be called greenie, don't like it very much.

"Thomas. I woke up remembering it." He stated before going back to eating his porridge.

"Thomas... It's a nice name. I'm-"

"Skyler, yeah I know. The other boys talk about you being the first girl in the 'glade' and stuff"

"Oh, well okay then." And I start eating my porridge. I didn't realize how hungry I was and I almost licked my plate clean. I got up and accidentally bumped into someone, make my bowl fall to the ground with a loud shatter. I hear curses from the person to look up and see its Gally.

"Watch where you're going next time, slinthead" He snapped.

Oh no he didn't. I roll my eyes, and try to focus on cleaning up the pieces of shattered plate. I put them into the bin and started to walk away before someone grabbed my arm. I turned around to see Newt.

"Okay, you'll be starting with the med-jacks, since that's what you got before what happened...." His voice trailed off. The memory of that night sent a shiver down my back.

"Okay Jeff will tell you who to look after and show you more medic stuff" He says pointing towards Jeff.

I learned more on how to wrap a wound and clean it, and how to stitch a gash and more useful stuff. I mostly got the slicers that had cut them selfs, nothing big.

Finally Newt called me to tell me dinner was ready and that was my first day done. I actually enjoyed it, it was quite fun. I started to walk towards the homestead when I realized Minho would be out of the maze any minute, so I waited by the door.

5 minutes have passed: no sign of Minho and Alby anywhere.
10 minutes have passed. They should defiantly be back now. I decide to go for dinner and wait for Minho here.

I run to the homestead and get my dinner and go sit beside Newt. Him, Clint and Jeff were talking about my first day.

"Well done, your did really good on your first day, apparently" Newt turned to me.

I smiled and went back to eating my potatoes and sausage. I started to get really worried when I see no sign of Minho anywhere.

"Hey Newt, do you know if Minho is back yet?" I ask, seeing the sudden realization on his face.

"No, actually I haven't..." He whispered.

"How long until the doors close?"

"Ten minutes" Oh god. He's usually back now.

"I'm going to wait for them at the door, if you want to come with" I ask, and he nods in reply before we both bring our plates to the counter and started walking off to the maze door. Me and Newt sat quietly waiting for Minho and Alby. 8 more minutes left... I notice more graders have joined us, noticing that Minho and Alby weren't back yet.

And finally I say what we have all been thinking. "What happens if they don't get back?" I say, my voice slightly cracking at the taught of never seeing Minho again.

"They will" he said in the most plain voice.

4 minutes until the door starts to close. and almost 3/4 of the glade is gathered around.

2 minutes... now the whole glade if here. We all waited so quiet, I think it's the quietest I've ever heard the glade be. just as it reached under one minute, we see two figures limping towards us, but something was wrong. Alby was passed out and Minho was half carrying him.

I was the first to scream "Come on Minho! Hurry!" Everyone was on their feet now. Minhos head looked up at the sound of my voice, and his eyes locked with mine, as he started to hurry. It was no use, the doors were starting to close. My eyes started watering, and my whole body started to fill with adrenalin, and without thinking, I started to run towards the door. I heard people screaming my name, and people tried to tug me back but I won, and ran forward, this time people shouting for me too hurry or I might get squished in the walls. I just made it out and collapsed onto the floor and the doors shut behind me. The faint noise of the gladers were shut out instantly.

I look up at Minho, and he's on his hands and knees with a my lying beside him.

"Good job. You just killed yourself"
He mumbled "Skyler, what the shuck were you thinking?! Why the hell did you run out here!" He practically yelled this time.

I paused and didn't say anything.

"I'm sorry, I just wish you hadn't of done this" he said, putting his face in his hands. I walk over to him, take his hands in mine and give him a hug. When we let go he looked at Alby.

"What on earth happened to him?" I ask

"You know the way I said I found a dead griever? Yeah well the shucking griever wasn't dead and stung Alby" he said with annoyance in his voice.

"Why is he unconscious?"

"It's what had to be done-" He was cut off from a faint roar of a griever.
"Shuck, there coming. come on, we have to leave Alby and split up!"
