Thomas' POV

I watched as Newt would talk to Minho time to time and it really bothered me. He remembers Minho of course, but not me.

Class was almost over and I was trying to focus on my homework and not look at Newt. Shuck it. I look up and couldn't believe my eyes, he was already looking at me. He quickly looked the other way and I couldn't help but blush.

He looked at ME first. Does that mean anything? I think it does. I shrug it off and finally the bell rings. I hesitated on going to introduce myself to Newt but decide that I need to make a great first impression so I need to plan on what to say. I walk out of the room and go to my locker to get my geography stuff.

I walk to class alone and inside I see Maddy. I waved at her and she waved back. I tried to fake smile but it didn't work out well. I sat beside her and she gave me a small smile.

"Everything alright?" She asked.

"Define alright." I say back and she just smiles. I bring my attention to the front to once again see the principle walking in and yes, shucking Newt. He's in 2 of my class. Great.

Blah blah blah he introduced him and Newt was really staring at Maddy making me uncomfortable. He then went and sat on her other side. Anger boiled in me as the time went by.

We were given an assignment and a free time for the rest of the period.

"Hey Maddy." I heard him whisper. I pretended not to pay attention, even though I was all ears.

"Hey Newt. Glad you decided to join us here in America." She joked and he laughed. Butterflies appeared in my stomach at the sound of his voice.

"Do you want to work together?" He asked and I tried my best not to break my pencil and yell in rage. Why can't he be asking me!

"Of course." She said and I decided to tune them out.

After a good 40 minutes of them whispering and giggling I wanted to kills myself. The bell had rung and I was the first to get out of the class. It was now lunch time and I usually have lunch with Minho and he meets me at my geography class so I guess I have to stay here.

I look back in the class to see that Newt is still talking to Maddy. It brought tears in my eyes and I just wish he could remember me. They began to walk out of the classroom so I turned the other way.

"Hey Newt." I heard Minho say from the distance.

"Hey you shank." I heard Newt say. I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned to see Minho with an eyebrow raised.

"You ready to go?" He asks and I nod. We walk to the cafeteria and as usual I keep my head down and try to keep conversation to a minimal with Minho. We sat at a table and I began eating.

How am I gonna get Newt to love me again? Did he ever love me in the first place? I look at my bracelet as i continue eating and my heart hurt.

"I thought you'd be happy now." Minho spoke.

"What do you mean?" I ask looking up for the first time this whole lunch period.

"I thought that now Newt is here you'd be happy. I guess you won't be happy until you two shanks get back together." He says taking a bite of his pizza.

"We won't get back together. Since for him it would be different. Newt doesn't know who I am and he never will. He will never like me again." I say with a sigh and finish up my lunch.

"Don't say that Thomas. You guys had something special. Don't just give up. I know you'll win him back somehow, he just got here be patient." He says and as if on cue I see him a few tables ahead talking to a bunch of girls. I wanted to kill each and every one of them.

Newt is mine and will forever be mine. Too bad he doesn't know that and too bad he has to be so perfect that anybody would be lucky to have him.

He probably already likes someone else. It's too late Thomas you have no chance this is the real world, not the glade.

"Mind if I join you?" I hear my side and I look to see Maddy.

"Sure." I say moving over for her to sit down.

"I'm sorry I kept talking to Newt during class, but he's my friend you know." She says and I wave her off.

"It's fine it just hurts because he doesn't know who I am, but he remembers you two and it kind of feels unfair."

"It is unfair." She agrees. "How about I talk about you to him to help him remember." She suggests and I shake my head.

"No don't do that there's no point in forcing him and I rather get him to like me, my own way. " I say and get up to throw my food. The trash can happens to be close to Newt's table so I sign and go to the trash can.

"I looove your accent." A girl said making me roll my eyes.

"Uh thank you, I like yours too." He says and the girl does this stupid laugh. I don't turn around as I listen on to the conversation.

"You're so funny... And cute. I was wondering maybe we should go out sometime." She said and that's when I turned around, trash still in my hand.

She was blonde and wore a bit too much make up. Maybe he likes her. I hope not. He deserves the best person alive because he's the best person there could be.

"Sorry but uh, I'm not interested." He said scratching the back of his neck looking so cute when he did. I threw away my trash and walked back to Minho and Maddy with a smile on my face.

Maybe I still have a chance.
