Clara followed Newt to the showers; shampoo, soap, a clean change of clothes and a towl in hand. At least the people who sent her up to the Glade had the decency to send up all of her girly neccessaties.

"Now, if you even take a quick peak at me while I'm in there, I'll beat the living crap out of you,"Clara warned.

Newt had thought it would be best for him to guard the shower while Clara was in there, in case any perverted teenage boys came along.

"I won't. I promise,"Newt promised.

Clara smiled. "Good."

Clara let out a girly squeal as the icy cold water of the shower hit her.

"You okay in there?"Newt asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine. It's just cold."

Clara closed her eyes, trying to adjust to the water.

Oh, well. It was better than nothing.

"Teresa?" She heard the word echo through the back of her head. It was said by a male. The voice somehow seemed familiar to her.

Clara opened her eyes in shock.

She wanted to ask who had said that, but instead remained quiet, and looked around sususpiciously.

"Tom? What's wrong"? This time it was a female's voice.

"I'm worried about her." It was the boy again.

"She'll be fine, Tom. You know that."

"Yeah, but-"

"You know that Clara can take care of herself, don't you, Tom?"

Who was that? How had she heard that? Was she really going insane?

She wanted to scream in frustration. Maybe she actually was crazy.

Clara turned the cold water pouring down on her off.

She wrapped the pale-purple coloured towel tightly around her body. She made sure that she was covered by the towel, then walked out of the shower.

She didn't say anything to Newt. She just took her clothes from him and went to the changing room.

She put on the clothes : a grey shoe-string strapped shirt, dark jeans, knee-high lace-up combat boots, a breezy dark blue jacket that fell just below her hips.

So this is my life now, here in the Glade, she thought to herself.

There were so many questions she had, but the one she most badly wanted the answer to was who were those people she had heard while she was in the shower.

She sighed, knowing that that was one of the questions she couldn't ask - nobody would know the answer anyway.

She wanted answers, and the only way she would get them was by figuring them out.

AUTHOR'S NOTE

Hey guys! How are my fellow Gladers doing?

P.S. I don't know if you guys know but Clara got all the stuff for her shower from the Box. It was in there when it came up :)

What did you guys think of this chapter? What do you think is going on with Clara?

I am really sorry that these first few chapters aren't that interesting, but I promise that the chapters will get better later into the story 😊

So, that's all for now 😄 Stay classy, sassy, and a bit bad-assy :)
