"Where were you?" you ask Newt as he sits down at the table several minutes late to dinner.
"Ben's still terrible, but I think he might finally be starting to come out of it. You'll know what I mean when you've helped with enough of them. But Tommy here"-- he points his fork in Thomas's direction-- "took some initiative and decided he wanted to see him."
"I didn't know I wasn't allowed to!" Thomas protests, throwing up his hands. "I just wanted to get some answers. Like what happened to him?"
"You'll find out during the Tour tomorrow," you answer.
"But why do I have to wait until tomorrow? And--- wait? Are you the only girl here?" He starts to look around the Glade, searching for another.
You laugh. "Yeah, I'm the only girl. And my name's y/n."
"And the reason you have to wait is because it's better if you get all the answers at once," Newt says, answering his first question. "It's also one of Alby's rules."
"But--" Thomas starts.
"I had to wait, too," you say. "It'll feel like forever until it arrives, but you'll survive."
Minho grins. "When she was a Greenie, she wouldn't shut up about the Tour, the walls, the trees, the grass..."
You kick him under the table. "If I remember correctly, you asked me if I was a girl when you first saw me, so you don't have a lot to brag about."
"B-- but..." Minho stutters as the other laugh.
You smile. Dinner couldn't have gone much better.
