The Ominous Maze || The Maze Runner || Minho

•18•

"Tessa." A low and soft voice called out my name.

I fluttered open my eyes slowly as the sunlight streaming straightly to my face, making me squinted slightly. Damn, it's so hot. I pulled my hands to covered my eyes but soon quickly removed it when I saw a figure inside my room. And it was Minho. He stared at me concernly.

"Hey, Tess." Minho greeted. "How did you feel?"

"Hey," I replied as I switched my lay position to a sitting position. "I'm fine. I guess."

"Newt've told me everything." Minho stated as he took a seat on the chair beside my bed. "What did Alby said?"

"The same thing as Ben said." I sighed hardly and look at Minho concernly. "I think it was true."

"Could you please just stop sayin' that?!" He replied in a half shouted. "He's totally insane! You're not the shuckin' Crea- "

"Jeff told me about the Changing, okay?!" I yelled.

I tried my best to hold my tears but I can't. It was so hard to hold.Tears after tears continued to flew down on my dry cheek. It's not the tears of annoyed of Minho. But fear. Fear of my past. Fear of my 'real' reality. I was totally gave up.

"He told me if someone got stung by the Grievers, they will get a glimpse of their memory." I said in soften voice. "It was already proven, Minho. I was totally a part of the Crea-"

Minho cutted me off by slamming his lips onto mine without any single words. My eyes was totally widen and I could feel my face heaten up. But soon, I closed my eyes and started to kissed him back while wrapping my arms around the back of his neck. I could feel Minho smirking, before get back to the kiss. In a split of second, the hard and cold tense changed into a lovely and passionate kiss. I was totally forgot about what we arguing for and start to concentrated on the kiss.

We soon pulled away, gasping for some air while leaned our forehead against each other.

"I got it now." Minho stated.

"Got what?"

"How to shut your blabbin' mouth." Minho replied while smirking. I playfully slapped his arms as he playfully pouted by that.

"I love you." I stated, before leaned in to kiss him.

"Ehem." A clearing throat voice be heard, making me and Minho pulled away. We both turned around to look at the door. It was Newt.

"Can't you knock, shuck-face?" Minho asked, annoyed by the interruption.

"The doors aren't close, slinthead." Newt replied, making me realised. I gave Minho a 'You're a slinthead, Minho, seriously.' face. He soon caught my gaze and grinned widely.

"Duh, stop it guys." I rolled my eyes. "What are ya doin' here?"

"It's the girl." Newt stated.

"What? Is she awakes?" I asked, before stood up from my bed.

"You could say that."

"Woah! watch out!"

"We just want to talk!"

"Go away!"

It was totally chaos. The tower that the Builder had built up, had been conquered by the girl who just woke up from her coma. She seems already gathered unlimited supplies of rocks and throwing them down to the Gladers, who were trying find a way to go upstairs while covering their head with a tins.
