I own none of the characters except Alex, the rest belong to James Dashner. Also the Percy Jackson references who belong to Rick Riodan.

Newt and I walk to the kitchen in a peaceful silence. All of the other gladers are already in the dining room or are outside. When we walk past, only about two or three aren't looking at me while the rest twenty or so have drool dripping down their mouths onto the table. Disgusting!
"Can you guys not drool onto the table? People have to eat there!" I shout
"Absolutely! Pass the napkins!
"I would do anything for a pretty lady like you"
"There's plenty of space next to me"
"If any of you shanks touch her, I will personally throw you off the Cliff without hesitation." He said with anger in his voice. I would never of thought that Newt, who was the calmest, would say something like that never. We walk through the kitchen doors and I join the line to get food with Newt right behind me. An Asian boy walks up to me, he has spiky jet black hair and a sarcastic look to his face.
"Names Minho, greenie what's yours?"
"Alex"
"What a cute name for a cute g-"
"Minho! Go get your dinner your probably half scaring the bloody greenie" Newt snapped
"Geez, calm down! I was only mucking about. AWWWW does wittle Newt have a wittle crushie-wushie?!" Minho practically shouted across the hall. All the gladers turn around and look directly at me and Newt. I hide behind Newt to cover my blush and Newt glares at Minho while also blushing. Minho just laughs and walks away, leaving me and Newt with a broken ego. Great just what I needed. I walked up to the front of the queue and met someone called Frypan.
"Alex, this is Frypan, Frypan Alex. Our new greenie." Newt introduced me.
"Nice to meet ya greenie, see y've already met Minho." Frypan starts chuckling
"Yeah, I have, is he always like this or is it just when a new 'greenie' comes?" Newt and Frypan start laughing. I don't get it? All I said was 'greenie.'
"Don't start talking like a glader just yet, you sound ridiculous. Also no, Minho is like this all the time. He's just worst with the greenies as they're new and scared." Newt explains to me while still laughing.
"Okay, can I get my dinner now I'm starving."
"Here ya go." Frypan hands me a heaping amount of food. Mashed tatties with stew smothered in gravy. My stomach makes a really loud noise as soon as I smell it.
"Thanks." I say
"See ya later greenie." Frypan says as I'm waking away. Me and Newt find a table and sit down. I start shovelling the food down, trying to remember to swallow.
"Remember to chew, you see." He starts showing me how to chow.
"Oh shut up." Was all I could say before I started eating again.
