I took Minho back to his room and layed him on his bed propping his ankle up.

"You can't run for a few days." I say. He groans and I chuckle.

"That just means you get to spend more time here." I wink at him. He looks surprised and I sexily lean down to whisper in his ear. My shirt hanging a little low making him stare.

"But I still have to work." I say. I stand back up when he was leaning in making him miss my lips. He groans and I laugh,

"You really thought I was gonna stop helping because you were stupid and got hurt? I'm still mad you gave me a heart attack." I say seriously. I sit on  the side of the bed out of his reach. I hang my head.

"Promise me you won't do that ever again." I mumble. 

"What?" Minho asks.

"Promise me you won't get stuck out there. You are too important to me. I mean to everyone. I don't want to have to find your body in the Maze and bury you. I don't think I could handle that." I say finally looking up at him a tear falling down my face.

"God Lani. I would never leave you. Like you said we were together before all this and I'll be damned if they break us up. I like you a lot and I am not going to let you get away and I am not going to leave." Minho says leaning up and wrapping his arms around me. I sob for a few seconds until my sanity comes back and I stand up. I wipe my face free of tears and dab my eyes with a tissue to get rid of puffiness and redness. 

"I'll be right back to get your crutches." I say as I walk out of the room. I come back with a pair of crutches that would fit Minho and lay them next to his bed.

"Well I um...I have to go help Clint and Jeff so I will see you around." I say uncomfortable with all the seriousness. I know I like Minho but I need to focus on my work and helping get out of here. I go back to my room forgetting about helping for the night. I fall asleep on my bed and don't dream.

The next morning I walk out of the door and to the med jack hut. I sit down at one of the desks and fill out the form when ever someone gets hurt. Once I'm done I sit around waiting for some work. It's a few minutes until Jeff comes in.

"Oh hey Lani. I don't have any work for you right now but I guess you can grab your stuff and walk around the Glade. I'm sure something will show up." He says. 

"Okay." I say enthusiastically. I grab my stuff and walk out of the door looking for some work. I am okay with nobody getting hurt and needing me because that means everyone is safe but still, I'm bored. 

After about a half hour someone gets hurt and I hear screaming from the Slicer's barn. I run over already pulling out wraps and gauze.

Once I get there I look around to see everyone crowded around one boy and lots of blood on the floor.

"Move out of the way!" I yell pushing people out of my way. What I see almost makes me panic. A boy sits holding his hand and blood pouring profusely form it. I see that he cut off the tip of his finger. I push people out of the way and begin stopping the blood and disinfecting the wound. 

"Okay I'm gonna have to sew it back on. It will hurt until the number kicks in but if I don't get started now then you wont be able to use it ever again." I say as I disinfect the needle and thread. I jam in the syringe with the number into his hand and push the liquid in. He whimpers but then begins to scream when I start sewing his finger back on. After about a half hour, three towels full of blood, and lots of yelling from both me and the boy, I successfully get his finger back on.

I wrap the finger in gauze then a wrap to keep it still and then I'm done.

"It is going to take some time but it will be better and able to be used. Just don't use it for now. I am going to go get some pain killers. You need to see me every day to get some more and to check the finger and change the wraps." I say standing up. I look at my clothes and they are filled with blood. I go to wash my hands in their sink that they have and then walk out, not before I hear the boy yell a thanks and all his friends get back to work.

I walk through the Glade to the Homestead and to my room to change. Sadly Minho's door was open and he saw me walk by with my bloody clothes. He immediately gets up on his crutches and makes his way to my door. I hear a banging noise and then someone barging in. I scream because I had just taken my shirt off and am now only in my bra. Minho just stares at me looking me up and down.

I slightly giggle and walk over swinging my hips and laying my hand on his chest. He takes in a shaky breath and tries to wrap his arms around my half naked body. I quickly squirm away.

"So is there a reason you barged into my room and are staring at me?" I ask while walking over to my dresser and pulling out one of my clean shirts. It is a bright red fitted tank top and I slip it on over my body. I can faintly hear Minho groan and say no.

"Your answer?" I ask.

"Well I saw you walk by covered in blood so I did what any good boyfriend would do and came to check on you." He said. I kind of got stuck when he said boyfriend.

"Boyfriend? I don't recall you ever asking me out. Plus it would be highly unprofessional if a doctor and her patient  were to date." I say seductively. I like messing with him like this.

"Well then, will you be my girlfriend?" He asks.

"I just said it would be unprofessional but I guess I'm not one for being professional." I say.

"Good because then I would just have to pull some strings to make you not my doctor because-"He stops mid sentence to see that I am taking my blood stained jeans off and exposing my legs. He moans slightly and I laugh as I pull on a pair of black leggings. I put on a pair of black flats and then begin to make my way to the door that Minho is blocking. I try to push him out of the way but even with crutches he is a brick wall. I groan as I begin to pout trying to get him to give in a let me go.

"I'm not letting you leave until you at least give me a kiss because you were teasing me the whole day today." He says. I sigh and peck him on the lips but he still doesn't let me go.

"Nuh-uh. You aren't getting away that easily." He says as he wraps his arm around my waist. Being so close to him makes my heart flutter and my breath hitch. He must have heard my heart pounding or my breathing hitch because he smirked and pulled me even closer if that was even possible. I wrapped my arms around his neck and crashed my lips into his. We kissed passionately as he swiped his tongue against my bottom lip. Playfully I denied him entrance. He began pushing me inside more away from the door and I took this as my chance to get out of the room.

"Bye Minho! Now get some rest or else I'll be forced to put you on bed rest and have Clint or Jeff take care of you." I say as I walk away. I hear him groaning as I go and get us both some food from Frypan.

Today was a good day. I helped people, and I got Minho to ask me to his girlfriend. I know now that no matter what everything is going to be okay and I will have Minho for forever.
