Thomas

"COME ON THOMAS!"
What if I let the cranks get me? What if I just stopped running? But I can't, that's not what newt would have wanted.
As we get back to the berg, I feel like I'm being watched. I spin around looking for the source of this feeling.
"Thomas, what are you doing?" Brenda asks, confused.
"I- never mind." I turn back to Brenda, who signals that I should follow her. As we round the corner I can see the berg waiting for us. The doors open revealing the rest of the gladers along with Jorge and Vince.
"Thomas. Where's Newt?" Minho asks, but I can't bring myself to tell him. So I just sit down in silence putting my head in my hands. Teresa comes and sits next to me, but I choose not to acknowledge her presence.
"Thomas. Where's Newt?" he repeats.
"Thomas."
"THOMAS!"
I can't handle this anymore, I have to tell him now or else Brenda will.
"HE'S GONE MINHO. HE'S GONE."I shout. He stares at me in disbelief.
"What do you mean, he's gone?"
"Minho, I-"
"Thomas. What did you do?"
"I KILLED HIM, OK. I KILLED HIM." I shoot my head up to look at Minho, he stares back at me. He opens his mouth as if to say something but no words form.
"Minho, he wanted me to. He didn't want to hurt me. He didn't want to hurt us. He did it for us." Tears fall down my face as I remember the sound of the bullet exiting the barrel of the gun, and going straight into Newt's chest. Minho stares back at me with so much hurt in his eyes. We only break eye contact when the berg lands, back at the safe haven. The door creaks open, causing sand to spin around us.
Brenda gets off first, disappearing into the cloud of sand. Jorge gets off followed by Vince. Until only Teresa and I remain.
"I'm sorry Thomas, I really am." she means it, I can tell. Yet, something feels off. She steps off the berg, following the others. Being engulfed into the darkness.
