We were all sitting at the tables inside the homestead eating dinner like we did every night. Newt, my best friend, and I were sitting besides all of our friends -Minho, Chuck, Teresa and Thomas. We were all laughing about a story Minho had about the maze.Newt and I were busy sharing a small plate of food (I would eat half of my own and he would have the other half along with his own. He was always a hungry boy) when Gally called me over.
"Be back guys," I said leaving the table. "Hey Gal," I greeted by the doors of the homestead where he was standing.
"I didn't know you had a thing for younger guys," he smirked and crossed his arms over his chest.
"What're you talking about?" I asked completely confused.
"Your new boyfriend. Everyone's talking about it." I raised an eyebrow and scoffed.
"Can you just spit it out. What's the rumor?"
"You and little Chuckie. He's telling everyone about you two," he explained. "Nobody believed it but he said you kissed him in the woods yesterday and Clint was his alibi."
I put my head in my hands. Little Chuck is spreading a rumor that we were dating? I wasn't gonna deny that I kiss him but it was on the cheek. I kissed him to calm him down after he had a nightmare and ran into the woods since he thought, for some odd reason, that I was Gally. The kiss did calm him down but I assumed he knew it was platonic.
"Excuse me while I go talk to my boyfriend," I said making Gally laugh and walk back to his table.
I walked back to ours and tapped Chuck on the shoulder. He suddenly went pale and looked down ashamed.
"Chuck," I drew out his name, "can I speak to you a moment?"
He looked around the table avoiding my eyes. "Uhh... no?"
"I'm not mad, honey. I just wanna ask you why?" The others seemed to notice and put all their attention on us.
"What did he do?" Newt asked.
"He's spreading rumors that we're dating," I answered.
"Chuck, you didn't?" Thomas gasps making Chuck turn red. His eyes fill with tears and he looks down again. I crouched onto the ground and lifted his chin.
"Hey, hey look at me, honey," I whispered. "I'm not mad. I just wanna know why?"
He sniffled and looked at Teresa. "Cause you kissed me. I thought that meant you liked me."
I felt my heart go out for him. He was just a little kid who didn't know much about relationships thanks to the maze issue. "Aww Chuckie-"
"You kissed him?" Minho smirked. I shot him a death glare and cupped Chuck's cheek.
"Honey don't cry. There's nothing to cry about," I assured him.
Teresa was rubbing his back while he calmed himself down. "B-but I-I-I embarrassed you."
"No you didn't. I'm flattered you would want to date me." He seemed to light up when I said this. "You're a really special kid, Chuck, but you're too young for me. Alright?"
"Okay. Plus if we dated, I would have to kiss you on the lips!" He shouted disgustedly. My jaw dropped as the other boys began snickering. I could hear Newt mumble under his breath "I wouldn't mind" making me blush.
"That's right," I smiled. The same cheerful Chuck returned to the table making me sigh of relief. "There's my Chuckie. No more tears. Alright, honey?"
"No more tears. I have to save them for when we prank Minho so hard we laugh till we cry," he whispered making me giggle and nod.
"Good that," I said pecking his forehead this time. He seemed to understand the meaning behind it but still blushed. He usually did when I did it but he was like my little brother. I had to do it.
I took a seat back besides Newt and took a sip of my drink. We all continued eating until every person left separately to go to sleep. A while went by until it was only Newt and I left in the entire room.
"Y'know," Newt began turning to face me, "I should start a rumor that we're dating. Maybe then I'll get a small kiss."
"Well Newtie," I said putting my hand on his neck and pulling him closer to me. "Mine-as-well make those rumors true."
