Chapter 11: This Is Halloween

After a few weeks, things were finally going good for everyone.

Thomas' leg healed completely as he had been walking with a slight limp ever since he hurt himself while training. But he was happy because he was with Teresa, and they made a great couple.

Minho was his usual goofy self and, along with Thomas and Newt, he was my best friend. I loved those three boys almost as much as I loved my kid brother Chuck. And Minho had started talking to that girl of the party, Brenda. He might even like her a little. Truth is they looked good together.

We hung out from time to time with the rest of the Gladers as well. They were really fun to be with and I was getting along with them great!

And Newt and I were really happy together. During those last weeks we had gone out both alone and with the rest of the gang.

We were closer than ever. We went to a photo booth to have some photos together –mine was in my wallet –and we were influencing each other in many aspects.

Once, Newt had gone up to my room again. When my mom saw him she thought that her evil plan had worked and that we had liked each other during that awkward dinner and I was happy to let her believe that.

Anyway, when he looked around my room and noticed I had a few Coldplay CD's, I offered to lend one to him so he could listen to my favorite band. He hadn't listened to Coldplay before he met me!

And so, with time Newt lent me one CD of The Beatles because that was his favorite band. Hence, watching John Lennon and The Beatles' movie 'Nowhere Boy' the other time and laughing at the actor who was his doppelganger.

In fact, ever since then I've been having 'Hey Jude' stuck in my head because I loved that song. And I went everywhere singing or humming it. Thanks, Newt.

And so when I woke up that Saturday, I was reminded of the day it was by my so dear brother Chuck.

I was happily lying down on the bed, awake but with my eyes closed as I embraced the coziness of being lazy.

And then, suddenly, I opened my eyes to meet face to face with the biggest and scariest Halloween mask ever, worn by my little brother.

I squeaked and fell off the bed as my heart struggled to calm its beating pace.

Chuck was laughing out loud, holding his stomach and wiping tears of laughter from the corner of his eyes.

"Chuck, I'm gonna kill you, you shank!" I yelled, standing up and chasing him around the house.

Still laughing, Chuck screamt as he ran away from me.

"Kids, don't fight!" Dad tiredly said, not really paying attention to us.

Mom and dad knew we loved each other and that our 'fights' were always playful and never serious. That one time I really fought with Chuck was around a month ago because of Newt. And since he got to like him –because honestly, everybody loves Newt –there were no more arguments about it or about anything else ever.

When I finally caught him, I locked my arm around his head and ruffled his hair wildly, laughing as he wriggled in my grip until he eventually got rid of it.

"Y/N, your phone's ringing!" Mom yelled from somewhere in the house.

"We're even now" I told Chuck, and he stuck his tongue out at me as he combed his curly hair.

I ran upstairs and looked at the phone as it rang and it showed 'Sarcastic Asshole' as the caller.

"Hey, Min" I happily answered, plopping down on the bed.
