Breakfast was awkward.

We just sat there and ate, but before I came people were talking. A lot.

is it me? Have I done something wrong?

I must have. Newt was fine with me yesterday or was he just being polite?

Either way, I just finished breakfast and I am about to get up and give frypan my dishes when Newt finally speaks to me.

"You have to go job trialing today" he tells me whilst still looking at his half - eaten plate of food.

"Newt. Look at me right now" I firmly tell him. I have had enough of this.

He looks.

"What the bloody hell have I done? I fell asleep on your arm. I was very tired after a long day and I just fell asleep, okay?" I tell him, I don't ask him.

"I didn't say you done anything and who said there was anything wrong?" he asks 

"Ugh, EVERYONE! If you don't like me -" and I get cut off.

"I LIKE YOU A LOT! THAT'S THE BLOODY REASON!" he shouts.

I blush like an idiot. I didn't expect that, at all.

"Well, I like you too." I mutter

That's me though, straight to the point. I am not waiting for anyone or anything ~ I tell it like it is unless it is'nt, then I use common sense because I don't want to be that one person who always bothers you or doesn't know when to bloody shut up.

And we literally just stand there watching and studying each others appearances.  

He has brown eyes and I have blue. 

I have blonde hair and he has a type of brown.

His hair is messy and mine is straight ~ but hey opposites attract.

I look over at a group of people including Minho who are waiting outside the doors of the maze.

"What are they doing?" I ask.

Newt looks to see what I am looking at

"They're runners" he says, "they run the maze everyday looking for a way out." 

"Must be getting close then" I say

He just shakes his head

"What?" I ask.

"We've been trying for 3 years and had no luck." he sighs

"Thats not fair. I want to try" I tell him. "I want to be a runner."
