Love Is Like a Maze (The Maze Runner: Newt)

Chapter five: Nightmares Or Visions

The two boys went outside to talk, while I was laying on the bed. I pulled my book out of my bag, and opened it to the first page. What could 'Don't Forget Me' mean? I closed the book, and put it on the small table. I put my head on the pillow, and closed my eyes. I drifted off to sleep, but then a vision showed up in my head. I saw people standing around me. A boy one year older than me holding my hand, saying something. He had dark black hair, and dark brown eyes. I couldn't understand what he was saying, until his voice became clear.

"Is she gonna be okay?" He asked.

"She'll be fine. Do worry about her." A blonde woman said. I looked to my right, and saw a woman with pale skin, brown hair, and blue eyes. She kissed my forehead, and said something I couldn't hear before leaving. I saw my vision become black. I felt something holding my hand. I slowly opened my eyes, and saw Newt holding my hand.

"What happened?" I asked.

"You fell asleep." He answered.

"What time is it?" I asked.

"12:00 at night." He answered.

"Where's Minho?" I asked.

"He's outside." He said.

"Did they find Greg?" I asked.

"They found him, right as soon as you fell asleep. He's in the pit." He said.

"Did they decide his punishment?" I asked.

"They said they'll wait until tomorrow, because Alby thought you would want to be there when they decide." He said. "Is that okay?" He asked.

"I don't think I can face him yet." I said as I sat up.

"It's fine. You don't have to yet." He said. "You know what tomorrow is?" He changed the subject.

"No. Am I supposed to?" I asked.

"You should. It's greenie day tomorrow." He said.

"Really?" I asked.

"Yeah." He said.

"Oh, well. Do you know if the new greenie is a boy or girl?" I asked.

"Not really. We never know, we always thought it would be another boy. But when you showed up, we don't really have a clue anymore." He explained.

"Hmm." I hummed in response.

"You should go back to sleep." He told me. He got up and was about to leave, but I grabbed his hand. To be honest, I was still scared and jumpy. I didn't really want to be alone.

"Newt....will you stay with me?" I asked. He faced me. He was quiet before answering.

"Sure." He answered. I laid down on the bed, and he laid down next to me. I slowly closed my eyes, and drifted off to sleep.....

Newt's P.O.V.

I saw Amy's eyes close, and she was asleep. I wondered about why Greg would hurt such a sweet and kind person. I stroked her cheek with my hand, and she stirred, but didn't awake. Then, she snuggled into my side. I put my left arm around her, and couldn't help but smile. Then, I realized something. I have feelings for Amy. I felt my eyes closing, and I slowly drifted off to sleep......
