Y/n, you're going to regret living when we find you.
The voices were mean and uninviting. They scared me half to death. Voices like that shouldn't be familiar, but those were, like a memory of pain, despair, sorrow, and loss. I looked around the Glade but no one was in sight. It sounded like they were in my head in a way. Thinking of being found outside and not in the "medical" room, and getting yelled at by the boys, I started walking back. Laying back down in bed I finally closed my eyes and slept.
"GET UP SLEEPY!" someone yelled in my ear. I screamed and fell out of bed, landing on dirt. I looked up to see Minho and Alby smiling like the fools they were.
"Aren't I supposed to rest?" I asked wanting to get back in bed.
Alby shook his head. He explained how they checked me while I was asleep and my fever had gone down. Minho, who claimed he was starving, added that I had to help Frypan with breakfast. They left the room so I could change. I ran to the kitchen and started cooking some eggs. Frypan told me he would hand out the food today because he didn't want me to work too hard after I just got back. When we finished he let me go and did dishes, telling me I'd have to do them for lunch and dinner. The first third of the day was easy. Now I just need to find something to do to entertain myself for the rest of the day.
Stop acting like you're supposed to be there.
The voices came back to continue to torture me and take away my sanity. I grabbed the sides of my head, trying to ignore them. They kept coming back though.
Life will be hell when you come back.
We'll get you. You won't get away with this.
Have fun while you can.
You have a week.
All together the voices left. I felt alone in my mind again. A week. A week till what? If they were coming to get me they would have to come from The Box. Trying to clear my head I looked into the Maze hoping to see something. I started to go into the Maze but a voice yelled from behind. I turned and saw Newt grab my arm.
"Off limits Greenie. Only Runners can go in," Newt said with a big smile on his face.
He put my hair behind my ear while getting closer. our faces were inches apart. Our foreheads were touching and Newt's eyes were locked on mine. He closed them and wrapped his arms around my waist, leaving me utterly confused. he let go and walked backwards a little with mischievous grin on his face.
"Come help me chop some wood for the fire tonight."
Just like that he was out of sight. I quickly ran after him.
