You shut the door of the Map Room behind you with quite some force. Thomas and Minho were both late for supper, so you ran out to get them, but they were arguing (again) about a mistake made in the Map or something you didn't quite understand.

Your job was being (insert something other so than a Runner), so when it came to their business, you knew none of it. However, they'd been fighting on and off lately that it's gotten to the point where even you are annoyed.

They would fight for almost anything lately. If you dropped something and they were near by they'd take longer arguing about who should pick it up than actually picking it up. If Thomas woke up earlier, but didn't go out beyond the Walls, Minho would begin to yell about how lazy he has become. If Minho did the same, Thomas would complain. They argued about ANYTHING.


"You see, when you try to get the attention of beautiful girl, and there's another person doing the same thing, you tend to get frustrated," Newt said, tapping a carrot on his lip, once you told him about their most recent argument.

"Are you trying to say you love me, Newt?" You laughed. Newt shook his head and laughed as well.

"Seriously, (y/n). Both Minho and Thomas are in love with you. They both know it. I know it, but you don't."

You turned your head to look back. Thomas and Minho were both walking fast towards the tables, but not together.

"This whole fighting thing isn't about me, Newt. Not everything revolves around me, kid." You sighed.

"Well, why don't we ask them?" Newt suggested. You choked on the bits of meat/veggies you had in your mouth. You swallowed then began to laugh.

"No way," Newt joined you and laughed as well.

"What are we laughing about?" Minho asked right before sitting next to you. Thomas sat on the other side of you right away.

"Not-" you began, but Newt cut you off.

"Are you in love with (y/n)?" He asked. You widened your eyes and gave Newt a glare which he returned with a smirk.

"W-what? Whoa man. No way," Minho said, but his face was a deep red. Though you saw that response coming, you still felt your heart sink a little.

"I AM!" Thomas shouted. You turned towards him.

"What?" You said. You couldn't see him, but Minho began to fidget in his seat. Newt looked at him and Minho just shrugged and nodded his head slowly.

"I am in love with you, (y/n). I have been from the moment you walked...well, we helped you out of the box," Thomas said. You stared blankly at him. You weren't sure what you should say.

"Oh, who am I kidding?" Minho said. You turned your head and once you did he pressed his lips against yours.

"What the hell man!?" Thomas yelled. You pulled away and looked at Thomas who seemed furious.

"You CANNOT just take her and pretend I wasn't just telling her how I feel!"

"You can't just try to take MY girl!" Minho yelled back. You rolled your eyes and got out of your seat between them. They continued to argue as you walked away, barely noticing your absence.

"YOUR girl!?" Thomas yelled back.

Newt followed you. 

"Hey, are you okay?" He asked.

"Do you see what I'm talking about? It's like arguing is all they can do! You've been saying they're in love with me, but they're probably in love with each other," you were silent for a bit, but then you and newt burst out laughing.

"Well, maybe they're not for you, (y/n). Maybe there's someone else," he said quietly.

You shook your head, "I don't know. You know, before that I didn't think I liked anyone, but when he kissed me, Newt...I don't know. My stomach it exploded. Minho always makes me laugh. Minho is always there for me, well, when he's not arguing. Minho is Minho and I think I like Minho, Newt."
