Just friends?

Chapter 9

Newt called out again that night and you shook him awake again. He told you that it was the same as last night and you asked if he wanted you to stay with him again. He nodded and you slipped into his hammock and you both fell asleep.

The next morning after breakfast you saw Teresa saying goodbye to Thomas as he went out into the maze. She worked with you and Newt in the fields and you all shared a few jokes and had a good time. By the end of the day you'd be confident in saying you had two great friends who you could trust. That afternoon thomas ran into the glade early. He spotted you and gave you a strange look. Then he approached Newt and asked if he could talk to him alone. Newt nodded and they walked away. You watched them for awhile until Teresa asked you a question that made you blush. "You really like him don't you?" She asked. You turned to look at her and she was giggling at you. "You guys would be the perfect couple." You blush again and thought about what she'd just said. "Yeah, I like him I guess." You said shyly.
"You guess. You like him and he likes you."
"You think he likes me?" You asked
"Of course he does silly, he couldn't keep his eyes off you all day." You smiled, you had noticed that whenever you looked up at him he was already looking at you. When you looked up again Newt and Thomas were walking over. Newt looked a little bit scared and you wondered what they'd been talking about. "Hey y/n" he said. "We have to talk."
You followed him to the deadheads. He held your hand and squeezed it. "Thomas found something out there today." Newt said, he still looked worried. "What did he find? Why do you look so worried?" You asked worrying a little yourself. "Not very far into the maze he said he found a plaque with camera in it, he said it had your name on it." You took a step back. "My name? Why would it say my name?" You were shocked. "I don't know but he said you should go out there and have a look. He's going to ask Alby if you can go with him tomorrow."
"He wants me to go out into The Maze with him tomorrow, to look at a plaque that says MY name? How's that going to help us?" You didn't want to go out there and you could tell that Newt didn't want you to either. "He thinks it's a clue and he thinks you might understand it or something" you shivered, everything about the maze scared you.
