Forrest's POV,

It's nice being back in the Glade. There's fresh air, fresh cooked food, trees to climb and it has my best shanks. Best part is that I have my memory back! It's just unfortunate that I can't tell anyone. If I do then something is gong to happen. I think the only person I have to tell is my brother, he's the only family left that I have. I have to tell him but not right now. I was doing a job in the kitchen with Frypan. I was chopping some veggies but Minho came by.

"Hey Frypan! I need you to come with me for a minute" Minho said taking an apple.

"Um, yeah sure. Forrest! Can you bring some water to Zart? He needs some for his crops" Frypan asked. I nodded and did what he asked. I grabbed one of the buckets, filled it up and make the trip to the garden beds. I look over at the doors of the maze.

"I hope Peter and Abbie are doing fine" I said to myself then sighed. I didn't watch where I was going because I ended up spilling the water on someone.

"That's bloody cold!" A British accent came. I look up and saw that Newt's hair and shirt was completely wet. I just started laugh at the sight.

"It's not funny" He said obvious angry.

"No, it's not funny, IT'S HILARIOUS!" I said with a huge smile on my face. I continue to laugh my ass off.

"Haha, very funny" He said unamused then grabbed the bucket and placed my head in it, finally walked off. I thought I was blind but it was just the bucket. I lifted the bucket abit for me to see.

"How the shuck did I ever like a guy like him?" I asked myself in disgust.

"JACKASS!" I screamed at him angry.

"SHORT ASS!" He respond not even looking at me. My mouth dropped when he said that. I'm only what? 5'2? I don't know! I remove the bucket as walk back to the kitchen with the empty bucket in my hand. I wait for the bucket to refill.

"I thought Zart only wants one bucket of water?" A voice said. I turn my rad to find another cook, this one was Phil. He just another Glader, he's not one of those one that stand out like Newt or Chuck.

"Yeah but I ended up accidentally spilling it all over Newt. It was really funny" I explained stopping the tap.

"AW! I wish I could have seen that!" Phil said wishing. The bucket was full, I placed the bucket on the bench before going.

"I'll take that before you trip again" Newt said taking the bucket. He didn't look happy.

"Forrest can shucking take it herself, thank you" Phil said standing up for me.

"Slim it Phil" Newt said annoyed. He sounded annoyed. I was surprised when he said that, he barley says anything like that. He then walks off with the bucket, limping. An image of how he got that limp gets into my mind. I sigh and forget the terrible memory.

"You okay Forrest?" He ask concerned.

"Yeah! I am! Don't worry" I said like it was nothing. He takes my hand and looks me deep in the eye.

"Forrest, I have to tell you something. It's very important" Phil said being serious. I gave him a look to continue.

"Forrest, I've loved you ever I saw you come out of that box six months ago. I love how your hair is as dark as the night sky, I love the way it sways when you run. I love how brown and your eyes are, the mischief and stories to be told in them. I love how your lips are so plumped and soft" Phil went on.

"What about my personality? I ask him. It seems like he only likes me for my looks.

"Umm. Well! Umm... Your uh... I love.. how! Umm, you're..." He started off speechless. Then water was splashed into him. It wasn't me though, it was Newt.

"The words your looking for is tough, brave, strong minded and hearted, gets even, mischievous, funny, intelligent but then again under all that roughness is a caring person who is gets scared for those she love" Newt said. Did he just confessed about why he loves me. He looked at me when he finished, on my face you could tell I was very surprised and speechless. Now I know why I dated him before WICKED took everything away from me.

"You should actually like someone for their inner beauty, not for they're looks. When you find the your true feelings for Forrest, confess to her. For now since you only like her for her bloody face you should be working Slinthead. Forrest I want you to take a break" Newt continued. I just nodded, why was I too scared to talk to him. He placed the bucket down beside the counter.

"Newt! Thomas is back with something" Gally said running towards him. He nodded and ran off with Gally. I faced the drenched Phil, with a smirk.

"You heard Second in Command. Get back to work while I take a break" I said then waved and walked away. Something stopped me when the girl that was in the box with me earlier ran over to the watchtower with some rocks and apples. I just shrugged and continued to walk. Then I felt something hit my head. It was an apple.

"OW! What the Klunk?" I asked myself confused looking at the apple. Then I felt another one.

"Forrest? You okay?" Zart asked running to me with Winston and Frypan.

"Yeah, I'm just confused on where this apple came from, I think it came from up there" I said pointing to the watchtower, cause I remember that girl taking some rocks and apples with her. Then a rock came and hits Zart on the nose. I try my best to not to laugh. I run off to safety while the other guys grabbed some type of shield. Chuck came to join me.

"What's happening?" Chuck asked with a huge smile on his chubby face.

"Just look" I said. More and more guys came then I saw Newt and Gally join.

"Should I be helping them?" I asked.

"Nah!" We said shaking our heads in unison. This is an amazing show! I wish I had some popcorn! Thomas and Minho come running back with Clint and Jeff behind them.

"Hey Chuck! Forrest! What's going on?" He asked. Chuck just pointed to the watchtower laughing.

"Girls are awesome" Is all he said.

"Thank you Chuck" I said patting his shoulder.

"Hey! Throw one of those things again and I'll-!" Then Gally got hit with a spoon right on his head. Then Thomas comes running up behind Gally.

"Hey what happened?" He ask.

"I don't think she likes us very much" Newt answer unsure.

"Hey! Look we just wanna talk!" Thomas screams at the girl.

"I'm warning you!" The girl screams back continuing to throw random things.

"Forrest! Your a girl! Convince her to come down!" Gally ordered her.

"No way! Why would I ruin the entertainment?! Anyways, girls like that and girls like me do not interfere with each other!" I responds. Why would I stop the show!

"Hey hey hey! It's Thomas! It's Thomas!" The girl stops. She looks down on them.

"Alright I'm gonna come up ok" Thomas says doing what he said he was gonna do. They talk for abit while the rest of them wait to see if she would come down.

"What's going up there?" Gally ask

"Is she coming down?" Newt ask after him.

"Um... Hey listen you guys! Just give us a second!" Thomas responded.

"Alright. Come on!" Newt said moving my hands to tell them to go away.

"Are all girls like this?" Frypan ask before walking away.

"Aw! It's over!" I said acting dispersed. Chuck just laughed. God, I'm gonna really love the Glade. Having another girl might be very... interesting...
