Chapter 7. Break throught

Kayla's POV

It's been a week since our meeting, and almost no boy will talk to me when newt or alby's around. It's been mostly hard for me and Thomas because we can't even hug or newt will be all over him about it.

I heard a knock at my door and opened it to reveal Minho.

" ready." He said and I smiled and grabbed my knife.

" yup." I said and we walked to the maze doors. We started running through the dark, damp maze to find a way out. I hate to be a downer but I'm scared that we won't find one. I mean Minho had ever inch of this place mapped out and there's no sign of a new way.

Being a runner makes me feel free. Even though I'm not.

We started to run through section 7 when I heard a crack and fell to the ground. I screamed out in pain and held my foot.

" Kay!" Minho yelled and ran to my aid. He slowly took off my boot and I screamed. My foot was bleeding and shooting with pain.

" okay okay." He kept saying and put his arm around my back and helped me up. We started, slowly, running through the Mae, retracing our steps to the glade.

" it's getting dark." I said.

" I know!" He yelled. I heard a shriek and I started to try to run faster.

We turned a corner and sat the light coming from outside the maze. We then heard yelling of the Gladers, cheering us on. I yelled out in pain and me and Minho fell to the ground. The maze started shutting and and I pushed myself up. I saw the fear in newts eyes and started crying. When the maze was about a foot away from shutting Thomas started running as the other Gladers grabbed onto his shirt to hold him back. He was nearly squished to death before he fell to the ground in front of me and the maze shut completely.

" good job, you just killed yourself " Minho said and sat against the wall. Thomas crawled over to me and I hugged him.

" what the crap tom!" I said and smacked his chest.

" I just remembered that if you die out here and I was in there, I would never get to see you again. And if you die, I die. So i thought.. What would be a better way to die than with the girl I love." He said and tears poured out of my eyes.

" I love you too tommy." I said and kissed him.

" I hate got do this but remember, grievers are patrolling." Minho said and we nodded. Thomas and Minho helped me up and started to carry me away from the entrance.

We came to a vine covered wall and hats when I heard the dreaded sound. We backed up agains the wall and all of a sudden the wall caved in behind us. It's like we were totally hid from the world around us.

A machine like creature walking in front of us and stooped. Sniffing the air, it crawled away and I sighed.

" we can't stay here forever." I said.

" it's the only way. If they can't see us, this is probably the best place right now." Thomas said and I nodded.

I laid my head on Thomas's shoulder and shut my eyes. My eyelids became heavy when I fell into a deep sleep.

Next morning

I woke up to the ground beneath me shaking. I looked up and Thomas and Minho was sleeping.

"Guys!" I yelled and they woke up. Thomas instantly picked me up without question and start running. I held onto his neck for dear life until me stood in front of the door. It slowly opened revealing chuck. He smiled and started cheering as we walked through the entrance.

" what happened to Kayla!" Newt yelled and took me from Thomas's arms.

" I fell and broke my ankle." I said and he walked me to the Med-Jacks house. He laid me on a bed and Clint came to my aid. He first cleaned my ankle than gave me a shot the hurt really bad. It's like I can still feel the liquid running through my body. He wrapped my foot up and told me to get some rest, and I did.
