After many hours of negotiating, Newt, Arthur, and Thomas were finally able to quit for the night right before dinner ended. They went straight to the cafeteria, hoping that there was food left for them.
As they walked in, Minho called to Thomas and Newt from his table with Chuck and Alby. "Hey you two. Finally care to join us?" The two Gladers went over to the table while Arthur broke away to go sit with his friends in the guard. "You are lucky we are nice enough to save you some food."
"Thanks Minho." Thomas said.
"It was no problem."
"Yeah it really wasn't considering you didn't do anything. Chuck and I had to go up there during last call. It was a nightmare." Alby said.
"Well, thank you both then. Minho, I take my thanks back." Thomas said.
Newt chuckled. "Thomas, be nice." Thomas rolled his eyes as Minho mumbled about Alby and Thomas being cold.
"So how did the meeting go?" Chuck asked.
Newt groaned. "I never thought I would meet someone even more bloody stubborn than Thomas. I was greatly mistaken."
Minho snorted. "Won't believe it till I see it."
"Hey!" Thomas said through a mouth full of spaghetti. "I'm not that stubborn."
Newt raised an eyebrow. "Really? Because you weren't the one who went into the maze after we told you not to or fought the grievers when we said it was impossible. Face it Tommy you never take no for a bloody answer." Thomas opened his mouth to retort but quickly closed it again when none came.
"See you can't even deny it!" Minho said chuckling. They finished dinner quickly and went to bed.

Newt was fast asleep when a man and woman dressed in all black snuck into his room through the window. They took out a needle and injected the contents into his neck. Once they finished they grabbed him and left.
"This will teach the freaks their place." The woman said smirking.

Newt woke up gasping; it was still dark outside. He got out of bed and walked to the windows looking out at the woods surrounding the mansion. He stayed there until the sun rose before going to get ready for the day.
He made it to breakfast without any issues, now he just had to hide his dream from everyone. He didn't want to worry them after they were finally feeling safe. He especially didn't want to tell Arthur. He was terrified that if he told him then something bad would happen to him. Keeping his dream from everyone would be pretty easy; the only person he would have to worry about was Thomas, but after months of practice he was able to block most of his thoughts.
"Hey Newt." Thomas called from behind him. Newt jumped in surprise. "Woah. Is everything okay?" Thomas asked.
"Yeah, everything's fine. Just a little tired." Newt replied.
"Did you have another dream?"
"No, just couldn't sleep."
"Are you sure? I was never able to surprise you before."
"Yeah, I'm fine." Newt smiled.
"Okay." Thomas said walking away.
Newt sighed. He didn't know how much longer he was going to be able to keep his dream hidden?
