NEWT POV: 

I snuck in threw the window at night. I saw Thomas laying there on the hospital bed. I stung him. Thomas had a stuffed pig that he was sleeping with. I silently walked up to him. "I'm sorry Tommy" I whispered. Thomas opened his eyes. "Newt, what are you doing here" he asked. "I wanted to apologize. I didn't mean to sting you" I said sadly. I expected Thomas to shout and scream at me. "It's okay, I would of ended up in the hospital anyway" said Thomas. "What" I asked surprised. Thomas looked at me annoyed. "I fell off the top of  a tree Newt. If you didn't catch me I would of broke something" said Thomas. "Ya but still. Aren't you mad I stung you" I asked. Thomas shook his head. "I know you didn't mean it Newt. It was a accident. Besides, I never told anyone before and I don't know if it's possible but one day I want to become half griever" said Thomas nervously. "Why, we have a terrible life" I said. "I can learn to live with those uniforms you have to wear" said Thomas. 

"It's more than the uniforms Tommy" I whined. "I don't care" said Thomas. "You can't just expect to become one and live the perfect life" I said crossing my arms. "I DON'T NEED THE PERFECT LIFE. I JUST WANT TO BECO" Thomas froze. "Never mind. I don't want to talk about it" said Thomas sadly. I signed. "Look Tommy I'm sorry. I'm not use to anyone wanting to be a halfing. If you still want I can turn you when you are older" I said. Thomas smiled at me. "I'd like that Newt" said Thomas. I hugged him goodbye and left threw the window. 

THOMAS POV: 

I was stiff and alone. I opened my eyes. "Glad you are alive shuck face" said Minho. He isn't half griever. I can feel it. "What happened" I asked weakly. "You were bit by a griever and I carried your shank butt here" said Minho. No, I was stung. I know Minho was there. I was in too much pain to argue. "I want Newt" I said weakly. Minho seemed like he was studying me. "The doors will open soon Thomas" said Minho. I moved my head and winced in pain. My body was stiff and hurt to move. 

I cried as I waited for the doors to open. I'm scared, stiff, in pain, and I want Newt here with me. I trust him. I feel different down their. It feels like I am wearing a packer but I can feel it. The maze sounded and the doors started opening. "COME ON GUYS GET UP" Chuck yelled. The boys stood up and everyone cheered when they saw us. Newt smiled and ran up to me. "Tommy are you okay" asked Newt. "I'm stiff" I said weakly. "It might be from being bit by a griever" said Minho with his hands on his hips. "Was he stung" asked Newt. "No, just bit" said Minho. I was confused. "Good, I was worried for a minute" said Newt. Newt picked me up and I winced in pain from the stiffness. "I'm sorry Tommy, the stiffness should wear off by lunch" Newt whispered. He kissed my forehead and carried me into the glade with Minho behind him. Minho answered the questions and Newt carried me to Clint and Jeff. "The shuck happened to him" asked Jeff. "He was bit by a bloody griever" said Newt angrily. "We might have to amputate it" said Clint. I was a little nervous. "Relax Tommy, he always wants to amputate" said Newt.
