Jessica's POV
I was so scared when I came up in that box. Nothing but darkness and the sounds of metal grinding. I didn't know how long I'd been in there before I saw light again. I was a scared defenseless girl. I wouldn't talk to the other gladers and I would often keep to myself only interacting when I had to.
Now I've been here for almost a year. Its been full of ups and downs. The boys are pretty nice to me even though not all trust me. I'm a Medjack here and I'm one of the best. There's 4 of us all together.
I've opened up a lot since getting here. My best friend and crush since he got here is Thomas. I feel like we have this connection but its kind of hard to get any further in a relationship cause of that shuckface Teresa.
She was constantly by his side and I knew he didn't really like it but he's a nice guy. He's not just going to tell her off. She hates me cause we're best friends. She has tried to sabtoge me by hiding my medical supplies. The piece of klunk doesn't do anything helpful around here.
Moving on, tonight is the annual glade bonfire. I'm hoping to hang out with Thomas tonight. Minho and Newt have this elaborate scheme to keep Teresa distracted.
I braided my long brown hair down my back and dusted the dirt off my clothes. Closest you can get to actually being clean around here. I walked outside and the party was in full swing.
I quickly spotted Thomas and waved. He smiled and waved in return. I jogged over and sat next to him on a log.
"How was the maze today?" I asked him.
"Ah you know same old same old. Did you save anybody today?" He joked.
"Well I don't mean to brag but I popped Zart's shoulder back into place and made an awesome sling for it." I responded.
"Pretty impressive short stack."
"Hey I'm not that much shorter than you. I'm actually quite tall!"
"Yeah but I'm taller so therefore you are short stack." I laughed and punched his arm. One of the gladers brought around jars of Gally's secret recipe. I gladly accepted one. I was one of the few here who could hold their liquor. Thomas on the other hand got wasted on 2 or 3. I always had to keep an eye on him.
Some of the boys started making some music so the rest of us started dancing. I drank another jar of alcohol and danced with Thomas. I looked around and noticed Teresa wasn't out here. Guess she stayed back at the Homestead.
I danced some more while Thomas went to the bathroom. A few minute passed and I realized he wasn't back yet. I asked around and some of the boys said they'd seen him go back to the Homestead with Teresa.
I felt a knot in my stomach as I walked back. I knew he didn't like her. Nothing was happening I'm sure.
But I couldn't shake the thought that I was dead wrong.
I walked up the stairs and heard voices. I recognized them as Thomas and Teresa's. I walked faster till I stood outside his room. I hesitantly grabbed the doorknob and swung the door open.
Tears sprung to my eyes as I my heart broke. Before me on the bed was a shirtless Teresa making out with Thomas. His hands were on her hips and butt. They looked up when they heard me and Teresa gave me a triumphant smirk as if to say 'he's mine.' Thomas looked at me as if nothing was wrong. I prayed to the Creators he was drunk. I tried not to puke as I turned and ran out of the Homestead.
As soon as I passed through the front door tears spilled at an alarming rate. Newt was the first to notice and ran to my side.
"Jessica what's wrong?" He asked.
