Different (The Maze Runner)

Chapter 33

**A/N I'm so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so sorry this is so late. Yes I'm still doing a chapter tomorrow, and I'll even do a double to make up for this. Kay? Kay.

After work that day, Newt walks up to me and grabs my arm. He pulls me into the Deadheads.

"I feel like you know what Ben meant," he says.

I sigh. "This again? Newt I don't know!"

"Alright, alright. Well then I wanna know what you remembered during the Changing."

"That's not your information to ask for."

"I wanna know."

"Why's it matter?"

"Because what's the only thing anyone would attack another Glader about? Being a Creator."

"You think I was in on this?"

"I don't know! Unlike you I don't remember!"

"You know I hate WICKED!"

"But I don't know if you always did!"

I sigh. "If this is what you wanted to spend time doing then I'm not doing it."

"This wasn't the plan at first but it's the plan now."

"You can't make me tell you anything."

"Relationships don't work without honesty."

"Well you weren't so honest either. You never told me about how you tried to kill yourself."

"How did you even remember that? You're only supposed to remember your memories!"

"I did only remember mine!"

"So that means someone told you. The only people who would know are WICKED."

"You don't believe me. You don't believe that I wasn't in on this." I can't tell him the truth. I can't.

"Well nothing's adding up."

"Would you rather believe your girlfriend or a crazy guy?"

"My girlfriend who I've known for two months or a guy I've known for three years? Hmm, who should I trust more?"

"You don't trust me!"

"Because I can tell you're lying!"

"Relationships are nothing without trust so I guess our relationship is nothing!" As soon as I say that, I instantly regret it.

"So what, you wanna break up?"

"Well it sounds like you do."

"I never said that."

"You said you think I'm lying to you."

"Tell me the truth and we can put this all behind us. We can still have a nice time, like I planned to. Just tell me the truth."

"I did."

He sighs. "It just doesn't add up, love. Ben says you did this. And I can't help but feel like this refers to the Maze."

"I didn't do this!"

"Well Ben says you did."

"I didn't."

He sighs. "I don't know who to believe."

"Take some time and think about it then."

"Fine."

"And don't bother talking to me while you're figuring it out." I turn and walk out of the Deadheads, instantly regretting that decision. But I can't help it. Something's making me do it. And I feel terrible that I can't fight back.
