                                This is a long chapter....get ready to be here for a while.

I cried for hours. I could have just lost Newt, and it hurt. It hurt so much, and I didn't know what to do. Every time I stopped crying, I'd think of him, and then I'd start crying again. The only time I got out of bed was when I had to get up and shut my door. The boys were starting to head in for the night, and I didn't want them seeing me like this. I just wanted it to end. I wanted to run out in the maze and get stung by a griever so I wouldn't feel the pain anymore.

I heard a knock on my door and didn't move. I couldn't. All i did was wipe my eyes and say quietly.

"come in."

The door opened with a creak and I didn't bother looking up at who it was. If it was Newt...wait, scratch that. There's no way it's Newt. He probably hates me right now. Just thinking about that made me cry even harder, the sobs racking my body, and my heart still felt like someone reached into my chest and tore it out. The person closed the door and I heard footsteps coming closer to the bed. The mattress sagged as they sat down next to me.

A hand started rubbing my back, and I tried to stop crying. I wiped my eyes and slowly sat up, smoothing my hair down and taking a deep breath. I turned to face the person sitting next to me.

"Oh, hey Minho." I said quietly, before sniffling and wiping my nose on my sleeve. He looked down at me, his eyes showing sympathy for me, the poor girl who's bawling her eyes out because she had a fight with her boyfriend. Well, my ex-boyfriend, and his best friend, that is. Gosh, I so wanted to explain everything to Minho. I wanted to just spill everything. I wanted to tell him why I'm here, and that Tyler remembers, and just....everything. But I can't. Both WICKED and Tyler told me not to, or else people I know will get hurt. I tried not to think too much about my situation, and focused on calming down. Deep breath in, deep breath out. I could feel myself calm down a bit, but my heart kept racing.

"I talked to Newt." He said quietly. I let out a sob and buried my face in my hands. There went any chance of me actually calming down. I feel awful, Newt probably never wants to see me again. I felt sick to my stomach.

"He hates me, doesn't he." I sobbed. Minho shook his head quickly.

"No, he hates Tyler. He's just a bit upset....with you, maybe. Newt told me a bit about the situation, but...What exactly happened?" He asked. I shrugged my shoulders.

"Caleb lied. I don't even know what he told Newt but it's not true. Tyler made him say those things, and I don't even know what he said." I sobbed. Minho raised an eyebrow.

"Wait, it was all a lie? None of what he said actually happened?" Minho asked, and I shrugged my shoulders.

"Well I'm pretty sure, but I don't know exactly what Caleb said, so.....what did he say?" I asked, wiping my eyes again and tucking some hair behind my ear. Minho sighed.

"Well, um...he said he remembered Tyler. Tyler and you, to be exact. He said that you two used to be dating, before the maze, and that you wanted to be together again. He told Newt that last night Tyler came to him, asking him to help you sneak out at night so you could meet up in the woods, or whatever. He said he saw you two together last night, and that he figured you were together again today." Minho finished, rubbing the back of his neck. I groaned and put my head in my hands again.

"None of that is true...none of it." I mumbled, new tears threatening to spill out of my eyes any second. Minho sighed and started to get up, setting his hands on his knees and pushing himself off of the mattress.

"Why don't you tell Newt that. He took it pretty seriously." Minho said, started to pace around my room. I groaned in frustration.

"He didn't believe me! I tried, but he wouldn't even let me try to explain. He slammed the door in my face and told me to leave." I said, new tears cascading down my cheeks. Minho sighed.
