Newt and I talked for a bit, then a small boy came in.
"Alby sent me." He said before he could get kicked out. "He wants you to hurry and get to the bonfire. Oh. Hello I'm Chuck the youngest guy in the glade."
"Hi I'm Rosalind." I said smiling. Chuck seemed to be like a nice kid.
"Can I call you Rose?" He asked. "Rosalind, is too shucking long."
"Of course you can." I answered. He smiled.
I turned to Newt and asked.
"What bonfire? Do I have to go?" I asked. Wanting to be by myself.
"Of course you have! You're the guest of honor! C'mon lets go" Newt said.
I stood up and headed out the door. I realized that it was dark now. There was stars all over the sky. It was beautiful. I stared at it in amazement.
"Bloody beautiful isn't it?" Newt asked. I jumped a little as I didn't know he was behind me.
"Uh yeah." I said quietly.
"So Cool!" Yelled Chuck. His brown curls getting in front of his eyes. I smiled at the young boy.
"Let's go." Newt said. I nodded.
Towards the middle of the Glade Alby and the other boys had set up a large pile of planks and sticks that was now burning very bright.
A few of the boys were sitting around talking, some were playing music, and some were crowded around in a tight circle chanting someone's name. Probably fighting or whatever teenage boys do.
I plopped down in front of a log facing the roaring fire. Newt had gone to get something to drink while I stayed behind with Chuck, who wouldn't stop talking, and my thoughts again. What is with all this weird talk about "Shanks" or "Slinthead" or "Greenie". Never heard it beforeā¦
"Hey, Greenie. Wanna see what you're made of?" I was confused.
"What do you mean?" I asked quietly, the circle splitting enough for me to see Gally in the middle of the ring bouncing in his fighting stance.
"The rules are simple, Shank. I try to push you out of the ring and you try and last five seconds." I shook my head nervously, pulling bits if grass out from the ground under me.
"Oh come on, Gally. She's just a girl!"
"Yea. She'd be better off in the kitchen with Frypan!"
Frypan? Anger was flooding through me. They think just because I'm a girl I can't even fend for myself.
"Alright, Gally. You're on." I said. I thought standing up and entering the small circle of people. Everyone started chanting our names as Gally plowed straight for me.
I side stepped a few inches from him, making him stumble onto a few people, but he quickly recovered, turning to me with a look of pure hatred plastered onto his face.
He charged again and I side stepped, but he was ready for it. He grabbed my arm a pinned it behind my back, I had forgotten I had a cut, I felt pain. I steadily pushed me over to the side of the circle.
But right as I was about to cross it, I took my usable hand and grabbed his forearm and flipped him over me and outside the circle.
It was quiet for a moment before loud cheers rocketed through my ears.
I looked over at Gally and saw his angry face. I don't think he's ever lost a fight before. I walked over to him.
"Gally I'm sorry." I said, as I offered him my hand. "I didn't mean to hurt you."
"You didn't hurt me Greenie." He said angrily. "Just stay away from me." He yelled as he stood up, and pushed me bit.
'Why was he being so mean?' I would have fallen, but I was lifted up off of my feet, everyone cheering my name. I looked down and saw an asian boy and another boy carrying me away from the circle and back to my original sitting place, setting me gently back on the ground. Chuck following us.
"That was amazing Greenie. The name's Zart." I shook his hand.
"You should have seen his face it was priceless!" The asian boy with 'perfect hair' said in between giggles. "I'm Minho by the way." I shook his hand.
"That was so cool! Rosie!" Yelled Chuck.
"It's just a silly game." I said looking at the ground. I sat back down and saw Newt walking back over, two drinks in his hands.
"Well," Minho said. "You should be proud. No one's ever beaten Gally in the ring." He winked and walked away with Zart.
"Well I'm leaving too. I'm tired." Said Chuck. "Bye Rosie." He said waving as he left too.
Great now I am alone with Newt!
Newt came over and crouched down next to me handing me a jar of some kind of yellowish brown liquid and sat down. I sipped it and spit it out immediately
"Ugh What is that?" I asked wiping my mouth with my sweater sleeve. He just smirked at me, taking a huge gulp of the strange drink.
"I don't even know. It's Gally's secret recipe." I set my cup down next to me and sighed, fiddling with my fingers.
"Earlier, there was a loud grinding noise. What was that?" I asked shyly. I looked at Newt, who was looking back, I looked down immediatly.
"Well, you know I'm not allowed to answer any questions until the tour tomorrow, right?" He asked. I nodded "That's it you're not going to insist on knowing anything?" He asked.
"No. If you don't want me to know anything until tomorrow then it must be for a reason. Right?" I asked looking down at the ground.
"Right." He answered back.
I sighed. I needed to rest.
"I'm tired. Do I have a place to sleep?" I asked, stretching and getting up. Newt got up, too.
"Well, since you're the only girl, who knows what anyone could do. So Alby said you could have the extra room in the Homestead if you like. It's that building over there, unless you want to sleep with me." I stared at him.
"I'll stay with you." He smirked. "But just because I'm afraid of being alone here. okay?"
"Okay!" He said. Lifting up his hands in defense.
He started heading over towards a building. There were three floors so we walked up the stairs to the second floor, where Newt's room was. The room was very messy and small, but I did not mind. The only problem is that there was only one bed.
Oh great! I was going to have to sleep on the floor.
"Well you get to sleep on the bed. I'll sleep on the floor." He said.
"No. No way. I'll sleep on the floor." I insisted.
"No I'll sleep on the floor. I wouldn't let a girl sleep on the floor." He said. I smiled a bit. He seemed like a nice guy.
"Maybe we can sleep together. I mean you'll sleep on one side and me on the other." I said. quietly.
"Fine with me Greenie." He replied. I nodded.
I flopped onto the slightly uncomfortable bed, trying not to touch Newt.
"Goodnight Greenie." He said.
"Goodnight Newt." I answered back. As I started dozing off immediately, thinking of everything that had happened today.
