!!DISCONTINUED!! Into The Maze - The First Girl - Newt x Reader x Minho

Chapter 5

The next morning I wake up to sunlight shining into my eyes. Blearily I sit up and look around, Where am I?

I push the covers off and swing my legs out of the bed. Standing up, I pull the covers straight and step over to the window so I can look outside.

From the window, I can see The Glade and the now small pile of burnt wood from the bonfire last night.

I smile; it had been an amazing night. I look around to find my radio, and see it resting on the windowsill. My smile stretches wider and I give my radio a pat as if it was my pet. "I'm so glad you came up with me, I must have really loved music for the Creators to do that for me."

I hear a knock at the door, and I step away from the window to see who it is. I glance down to check what I'm wearing ,and see that its the same stuff I was wearing yesterday, minus my sneakers and jacket.

I can see now that my T-Shirt is dark green, and my jacket -which I notice is draped over the end of the bed- a dusty brown.

The knock sounds again, and I hurriedly open the door. Alby is standing outside, "Hey, Y/N."

"Hi." I look at him curiously, "Am I trying jobs today?"

He nods, "Has Minho already told you?"

"Yeah, he told me yesterday when he was showing me around." I quickly duck back into the room and grab my sneakers, not bothering with my jacket, and pull them on as I rejoin him in the hall.

"Is that your room?" I ask guiltily, and he nods, smiling at me. "Don't feel bad about taking it, I wasn't going to make you sleep outside with all the other shanks. And besides, it's good for me to sleep outside every once in a while."

He turns away, "You can keep using it until we get you your own room built."

I nod, his last sentence sparking another question. "Who brought me up here?" I ask as we head down the stairs.

I can't remember going back to the Homestead, the last thing I can remember is falling asleep next to the fire.

He looks at me. "Who do you think?" he asks, and I blush slightly, hoping Alby doesn't notice. Thankfully he doesn't, or if he does, he doesn't comment.

"I'm guessing it was Minho?"

"Got it in one," he says over his shoulder as he leads me outside.

"What am I doing today?" I ask, secretly hoping for Track-hoe.

"You'll be trying for Slicer." Alby stops and turns to look back at me. "I make sure every new Greenie tries for Slicer first, so if they get scared out of their wits they can put it behind them and forget about it."

I swallow and nod. "Sure. I guess that makes sense."

Alby leads me over to the Bloodhouse and yells for Winston.

"Oi, Winston! I've got the Greenie here for you!"

I look at him. "I thought we established last night that my name is Y/N."

"Yeah, but you'll probably still get called Greenie until the next one comes up."

I sigh. "Of course."

I look up as Winston walks over to us, a bloodstained apron covering most of his clothes.

"Sup, Greenie," he says and nods to Alby who turns to me. "Someone will come and get you a bit before midday, so you'll have time to clean up and have lunch before your next job."

My stomach growls at the mention of lunch, and I realise I haven't eaten anything since I had the handful of cherries yesterday.

"Speaking of lunch, did I miss breakfast?" I ask hopefully, although I have a good idea of the answer already.
