Newt's PoV

While I was explaining things to Y/n, Alby had called a gathering. He didn't mind me not being there, as I was taking care of Y/n. He just told me the overall stuff that he'd said at the gathering.

"I just said that be respectful to her, give her space and don't try anything with her. Ya see, the shanks were all calling out stuff like: 'I call dibs!' And 'She's mine!". There was lots of wolf-whistling, too." Is what he told me. I understood completely. I also felt the same.

Your PoV

I woke up to the sun shining. Hmm... It looks a little bigger and brighter than what I remember but don't remember. Like, I know how it should be and what it is, but I have no memories of it. Or seeing it. It's really annoying. I stretched and looked around. Newt was nowhere to be seen, and I kind of missed him. But Everywhere I looked I saw boys working. Curious, I headed over to a bunch of them that looked like they were gardening.

Once I got there, I found that they were, in fact, gardening. Then I spotted a familiar blob of blonde hair. The hair looked up. "Oh, hey Y/n! Just woke up?" I nodded and stared at the shovel in his hand. "Hey Newt! You do gardening?" He looked down and smiled. "Yeah, I work as a track-hoe. You'll learn about all the jobs on the tour. Hey, look! Here are Thomas and Minho now!"

I quickly turned around and saw Minho  and Thomas heading towards us. They waved at me. "Hey guys!" I shouted and waved back. They came jogging over. "Ready for your tour, Greenie?" Minhk asked. I nodded enthusiastically. Thomas glanced at Newt. "So, you two been talking?" He queried. "Yea, Newt was just telling me that he's a track-hoe." I responded. "Cool" Thomas simply said. Then he leaned in and whispered something to Minho.

Minho's PoV

Thomas leaned in and whispered something to me. "I ship them!" (A/n yup. I just brought shipping into The maze runner. Continue XD)

I looked at him and nodded in agreement. "Totally!" I replied with a smirk. Y/n and Newt both looked at us. I just tapped my nose. Y/n shrugged.

"C'mon. Let's get this tour started!" I said while grabbing Y/n's arm. "Okay okay I'm coming!" She shouted. "Actually; I second. I wanna take to Newt bout' summit. I'll catch ya up!" I told them both, winking at Thomas. Luckily, Y/n didn't see.

After they had left, I punched Newt playfully on the arm. "Sooo... Newt. Tell me. What's up with you and Y/n, eh?" I almost burst out laughing at his shocked and blushing face. "N-nothing! Why would y-you think that?" He stammered.

I rolled my eyes. "Dude, you are blushing and stammering right now. But, you better make a move fast. Some other shank could get to her before you." And with that, I walked away, leaving behind a very red in the face Newt. Job done.

I would finally be able to understand fully what 'here' is. "Thomassssss speakkkkkk" I begged him. He laughed at my impatience. "Look, here's Minho now." Thomas pointed back at Minho, who was now running over to us. "Job done." Minho stated with a smile and pointed behind him.

Newt was there and was... Looking like a very red tomato? Huh? Thomas seemed to get it though, and chuckled. I stared at them both before shrugging and starting to speak. "C'mon guys! Let's start da tour already!"

~Time skip to after the tour because Author~Chan is lazy~

My brain had just begun to process all of This new information. It was astounding. I was sitting in a tree near the dead heads. It was peaceful here.

Then I felt someone slip onto the branch beside me. "Hey Y/n," A familiar British accent said. I smiled. Newt.

"Hey Newt." I replied without turning my head. "So, dya like the place?" He asked. I thought before replying. "Well, it's keeping us safe. After all, no one knows for sure what the world outside is like. It may be better than we imagine; it may be worse. So I'm fine in here. For now."

This time it was Newt who nodded. "Yeah... Anyway. I came here to ask you if you would like to came to the bonfire tonight? We gave one every night, while we eat. Some of us have a bit of a wrestle, for fun. So whada say?"

I grinned. "Sounds like my sort of place. Food, fire and fighting. I'm in!" He laughed at me. Then held out a hand. I took it and he helped me down.

A/n I hope you're liking the story so far.
