Fearless (1 of 3)

Bonfire

Newt...

I limped towards the Map Room, where Sunny disappeared. Even from afar, I could hear her yelling at Minho and Ben. I wonder what they did this time when she's this angry. Carefully I approached the door and cracked them open to see inside.

There stood Ben covering behind Minho, who was laughing his ass off. Ben looked especially terrified and I know why. In front of them stood Sunny and she was fuming in anger. She was about to jump at them but I caught her around the waist and pulled you closer to me to keep her from attacking the boys.

"Hey, calm down love or I'll have to put you in the Slammer again." I threatened when she tried to wiggle out of my grasp.

"It is them who should be put in the Slammer." Sunny snapped, still fighting against my hold. My, for such a short girl she's got some strength. I was genuinely having a hard time keeping her in place now. I looked up at Minho in question.

"What did you do?"

"Wha...n-nothing." Minho stuttered out nervously whilst still laughing.

"He said we should prank Summer and so we got her lost in the maze and left without her." Ben blurted out the secret they were keeping. Minho gave him an annoyed look and showed him away so he was now in the reach of Summer.

"Are you shanks bloody serious?" I yelled still holding Sunny back. Even though I am thinking about letting her at them. Just to teach them a lesson.

"Oh come on Newt. It was just a joke, I was keeping an eye on her all the...most of the time. The point is, I knew she would make it through the door before they would close." Minho argued, trying to get himself out of the mess. I didn't like him tricking my girlfriend like this. It could have resulted in her getting stuck there for the night. And no one yet survived that. But on the other hand, these two are best friends, they tease and prank each other all the time so I can't just put Minho in the Slammer for continuing with the prank war they have.

But I am sure I need to set some boundaries. I don't fancy getting anyone seriously injured or someone being a Griever supper. I pulled Summer against my chest. Her struggling was slowly calming down. My hand started running through her golden locks that were tangled from the run.

"You guys need to stop with jokes inside the maze. The next one that pranks the other in the maze is getting a night in the pit. Did I make myself clear?" I asked looking at both Minho and Summer. Minho nodded while Summer just frowned and so I squeezed her a bit to get an answer from her.

"Yeah okay, fine." She complied relaxing in my arms. I have a natural gift. At least at calming this gal down.

"Alright now, you two finish what you have and you love, go take a shower to cool yourself down. And the two of you will be at your best behavior tonight at the bonfire. I don't want any more mishaps like the last time." I warned Minho and Summer. Ben is good, he needs no warning. He just shouldn't let himself be pulled into their crazy ideas.

"Pointing out that it wasn't entirely our fault that Graham almost fell in the fire." Summer raised her hand, stating her defense with a cute smile.

"I'd say it was mainly Gally who pushed him there so I think we are proved innocent." Minho grinned and he and Summer high fived. Oh, look who is back to being best pals again. That's sweet. Now they should stop getting on my shucking nerves.

"Wipe those grins off, both Alby and I know exactly who had the main initiative. Just promise not to do anything bad that could cost someone's life this time." I ordered and released Sunny to walk out of the Map Room. Sometimes being second in command is unbelievably hard.
