Kayla's POV

I walked through the rows of glass bottles and bright blue lights, looking for Thomas. He told me too meet him here cause he had something to tell me. I turned and passed a shelf and saw someone. Teresa. Thomas then walked up to her.

"Thomas what's going on?" She asked.

"Where's Kayla? Never mind." He stuttered.

"I just want to tell you that whatever they say about me just know I had to do it." He said. I could see the shock in her eyes from here.

"There they are." A man yelled. They grabbed Thomas then Teresa and began to drag Thomas away. His eyes met mine and a tear ran down my face.

"IM SORRY KAY! I HAD TO!" He screamed. I started to run after the, when they had already disappeared down the long bright hallway.

End of flashback

I shot up in bed, panting like a dog. I rubbed my face and sat up, getting out of bed and picking out new clothes for today. Tan skin he jeans and a white tank top. I put my co,bat boots back on after I had changed and put my hair in a messy bun. I grabbed my knife and walked out. I heard yelling and ran straight towards the making of it.

I saw all the Gladers huddled up outside alby's old tree stand, shielding their bodies.

"Kayla! Your a girl, I want you to go straight up there and calm her down! And get as much information from her as possible." Newt ordered.

"Okay, boss." I spat and began walking up the steps. When the girl came into view she had a machete held in front of her.

"Woah." I said and put my hands up.

"Put it down and we can talk." I said. She hesitated before lowering if and I took it and sat it behind me.

"I'm Kayla, you must be Teresa." I said. She looked at me funny.

"How do you know my name." She asked quietly.

"Long story." I said and sat down

"You must have a lot of questions." I added.

"Where am I?" She asked.

"Ah. That's the one question that has the hardest explanation." Her eyebrows came together and I sighed.

"We're in a maze." I answered her. She looked down  and moved a little closer.

"Do you know what this means?" She said and rolled up her sleeve. In big black letters was written WICKED across her arm. I shook my head and she nodded.

***

We talked for a little bit before she calmed down and agreed to come down. I introduced her to all the guys and we explained to her what has happened the last few days. Newt said that since we don't know why she was sent here that she's going to the slammer for one night.

As they drug her to the slammer, I watched as Thomas walked put to me.

"What did she say?"he asked. I rolled my eyes and began walking off. He followed me so I just decided to tell him.

"That's all she remembers is her name. She knows about wicked tho but not all the details. Just heard of the name. " I said. He grabbed my arm and spun me around so I was facing him.

"I really am sorry Kayla. I know I've been ignoring you these past couple of days and if I could tell you I would. But you would think I'm crazy." He said and looked down. I brought him to my room and shut the door.

"Nothing's crazy anymore tom." I whispered. He sighed and looked at me.

"Me and Teresa can talk to each other through our minds." He said.

"Woah what!?"

"See I knew you wouldn't believe me."he said and started to leave.

"Thomas I never said I didn't believe you." I said and he looked at me.

"I'm telling the truth too. " he said and I nodded. He placed a hand on my face and looked into my eyes. He began to lean in when I cut him off.

" I can't Thomas." I said and he looked shocked.

"I know you have feelings for her." He stood still but then spoke.

"But I love you." He said and I smiled.

"I know, but you need to think about all of this. And in the end, you have to choose one." I said. He looked focused then he just left without another word.
