Thomas and I are best friends. As the only girl in the Glade, Thomas is like an older brother to you, protecting you from all the boys that want to "get in your pants" according to Thomas.

One day, you and Thomas were exploring the woods and you came across a river. Now it is your secret hideaway together.

Today was a hot day of running through the maze. When you make it through the doors, instead of going to the map room like your suppose to, you and Thomas run into the woods for the river.

As you run, you pull off your shirt and take of your shorts.

Once you get to the river, you jump in with a splash and get Thomas all wet.

"Are you kidding me?! You couldn't have waited 'till I got my clothes off?!" He asks agitatedly.

You just laugh when he pulls off his shirt and jumps into the chill water.

We splash each other and sigh in relief when we cool down from the hot day.

Thomas is your running partner and he always pushes you out of your limit.

"Look," you say pointing to the grey towels hung on a tree, "our towels are still there from last time,"

You both laugh and play in the water.

"So, everyone treating you well?" Thomas asks concerned.

"Yes, is it that hard to believe, everyone is actually pretty nice."

"Good," Thomas says.

"Actually, Thomas..." you start but he interupts.

"What??? Is someone harming you? I'll kill..." Thomas shouts.

"Thomas! Jesus! Don't jump to conclusions! I was just going to ask you to lay it off a little," You point out.

"Oh, sorry," he apologizes.

Thomas takes a breath to say something but then we hear a twig snapping.

"Who's there?!" I shout.

Then Thomas puts his hand over my mouth. I don't struggle.

Soon after, a tall figure appears between the trees and walks towards us.

The figure is alone and sways side to side when he walks.

"Minho?" Thomas asks.

I knew it wasn't Minho. Minho has more puffy hair.

When the light adjusts the figure is distinguishable as Newt. He looks down at us with a suspicious expression.

"What are you two bloody doing?" Newt asks.

"Uh...we were just..." You start to explain but Thomas interrupts.

"How did you find us? Did Minho tell you? Did Chuck tell you?" Thomas asks.

Before Newt can answer I jump in, "Wait?! Minho and Chuck knew about us! Thomas, why did you tell them about this?" I ask angry because both Thomas and I agreed to keep it a secret.

"Well Minho needed to know where his runners were running off to. And Chuck..." Thomas answers.

"I don't want to hear your bloody love arguments! You guys are suppose to be in the buggin map room!" Newt says.

"I don't want to hear your bloody love arguments! You guys are suppose to be in the buggin map room!" Newt says

"Love arguments?" You and Thomas say in unison.

Newt raises his eyebrows, "You really think i'm going to believe your excuses after I'm looking at you right now?"

"Hell no, Newt! Thomas is like a brother to me," you protest, "But seriously Thomas? Why the hell did you tell two people?"

"Is not like it was meant to be a huge secret?!" Thomas says.

"But I still don't want every shucking Glader to...." you are cut off by a splash.

"Newt?" You ask.

His head surfaces from the water and he moves his blonde hair out of his face as he grins.

"Yeah!" Thomas says as he high fives Newt.

"Ugh, you guys are so..." you are cut off when Thomas splashes you.

"Damn it Thomas!" and you splash Newt, meaning to splash Thomas.

This turns into a splash war filled with laughter.

But it only lasts for a short time when you get out of the water and walk over to the towels.

You can feel Newt and Thomas's eyes on you.

You can imagine his jaw dropped at the sight of you. You quickly grab a towel and wrap it around your body.

You turn to see Newt and Thomas staring as predicted. But Newt has a red face, he scratching the back of his neck nervously.

"Okay, i'm going back to the Glade," you inform, "See ya later Thomas," you say as you grab your clothes.

"Bye Newt," you mutter and exit through the forest.

Thomas's P.o.v

"Damn," Newt mutters.

"You like her. Don't you, Newt," I say more of a statement than a question.

Newt looks flustered, "W-what!? I...uh..."

"Dude, it's fine. I'm not gonna kill you like I would anyone else?" I say.

"What? Why?"

"Because, Newt, you are different than the other Gladers who just want to get in her pants," Thomas says.

"W-what? I-I don't want to get in her pants!" Newt says.

"Exactly. Now let me give you some advice," I say.

"Really?" Newt asks me. We are still swimming in the river.

"Of course, your my friend. Plus i'm the one to ask. I mean... I do see her in her bra and underwear every day," I chuckle.

"Alright, tell me everything I need to know," Newt says.
