Wonderwall (The Maze Runner, Newt)

12

The sunlight would have woken Bree in the morning, but sadly, that wasn't the case.

"You two shanks are adorable. Now get up it's time to go!" Minho yelled loudly.

Bree sprang up from her comfortable spot on the ground and looked over to see Newt had gotten up too.

"I wish I had my camera so I could've captured that moment forever and shown the entire glade!" Minho yelled.

"Oh, be quiet, shuck face. It's not like I haven't found you and Thomas cuddling on the ground." Newt told him sarcastically.

Aw, he said cuddling.

Minho went bright red. "It was cold that night."

Bree laughed. "Sure it was."

"It was! We're just Bestfriends. Don't best friends do things like that?" He asked desperately.

Bree kept laughing. "Maybe girl best friends do!"

"Then I guess it's okay then!" Newt said laughing.

Bree noticed how cute Newt's laugh was.

How he scrunched his nose up and his eyes shown brightly with delight.

His mouth curved delicately into a large grin, showing all of his teeth.

She liked this side of Newt, of her friends.

Bree hated the part of the glade where everyone was depressed and had no hope. Where there was no smiling or laughing whatsoever.

But here, right now, she loved how Newt could laugh so freely, as if it was an ordinary thing-which it used and should be. And how Minho was bright red with embarrassment, even though he and Thomas weren't a thing, it was still cute.

Bree like it. This was happiness. Joy.

It didn't last long.

Soon enough, everyone was serious again, all the joy had faded from Newt's eyes and the little embarrassment Minho had was long gone.

"Gotta go pack your lunch, greenie. After breakfast, it's runnin' time." Minho said to her.

Bree nodded and walked over to the kitchen with Newt and Minho.

They all got a big plate of scrambled eggs from Frypan for breakfast.

There wasn't really a main topic they talked about that morning, just whatever came up.

Bree ate her eggs slowly, cherishing them.

It never really occurred to her that she liked eggs so much.

Maybe because she hadn't had them in a long time.

She couldn't tell. Maybe she had them two weeks ago? She would never know.

That was a kind of depressing thought.

She couldn't remember what she had eaten or what she did before she came here.

"Let's go, shank. Long day ahead." Minho got up, as did the others.

She got up and packed her lunch with Minho and Thomas.

A few minutes later, the group was waiting by the door.

"Be safe?" Newt asked her.

Bree smiled. "Always."

Minho made her take notes all day.

Even if nothing changed, he just made her write down random things just so she could get the hang of it.

Bree hoped Alby didn't check over the notes they took. That would be embarrassing.

Her 'notes' basically said things like- Minho likes pie, and It's hot today.

It was hard, but she was getting the hang of it.

You had to write the notes while running but he let her slow down since she hadn't done it before.

Finally, they took a break for lunch.

Bree sat on the ground and pulled a sandwich out of her bag.

After a few minutes of silence, Minho spoke up. "So, you and Newt eh?" He asked with a smirk on his face.

Bree blushed slightly but tried to cover it up with an eye roll.

"We're just friends." She told him.

"Do friends sleep half on top of each other?" He asked.

"Apparently. You and Thomas do." She replied with a smirk.

Minho groaned. "It was one time! We're just friends, Bree!"

Bree laughed. "Okay."

Minho rolled his eyes. "I mean it."

Bree nodded. "And I mean it when I say we're just friends. I doubt Newt would even like me that way anyway." She said quietly.

Minho looked at her quickly.

"Really?" He asked. "Can you be that blind?"

Bree scrunched her eye brows together.

"I'm confused.."

Minho sighed. "It's obvious he like you. You just don't see it."

Bree shrugged. "You're right, I don't see it."

"Okay, then watch him closely when we get back. Then, you'll be able to tell." Minho said as he got up.

Bree put on her bag and got up.

"For now, let's just stick to running." He said as he took off back to the glade with Bree following closely behind.
