I'm in love, I think to myself. "Hey Shank get to work", I hear Gally scolds at me, how can I be in love, I don't even think I knowwhat love is. Do I?
"I am", I say and roll my eyes and I get back to work. I don't do anything else for the rest of the day. I finish off the job and go off to lunch; I eat with Chuck, Newt and Jeff. "Hey guys", I say as I approach them
"Hey", they all reply in unison. Jeff gives me a little smirk and I just raise an eyebrow at him, "What?" I mouth, he just shakes his head. I sit down next to Newt, my heart pounding at how close we are, our elbows nudge a few times and he gives me a few of his trademark smirks. "So how was working with Gally today shank?" Newt says finally breaking the silence that has fallen over the table. Newt looks up at me and I look in his eyes and wow.
"Don't want to do it again", I say scoffing and rolling my eyes. I turn away from Newt realising how long we've been staring at each other, wait, were we staring?
"Well all greenie's have to work with him so we all know what he's like", Jeff says. We then continue to eat in silence until Newt finishes first and walks off leaving Chuck, Jeff and I to sit there alone. Chuck then leaves to go do his job which just leaves Jeff and I alone. "What was that smirk before for", I finally say once I see that Chuck was gone
"Guess it", he says, winking
"Did Minho tell you something?" I say; squinting my eyes at him seeing if I could see past his lies
"Maybe, maybe not", he says teasing, just grinning at me
"Just tell me", I say throwing my hands up in exasperation
"Later", he says and strolls off
"I swear to freaking whatever Minho that if you told Jeff, I'm going to kill you", I quietly said to myself as I got up and went back to working with Gally.
The sun was slowly going down and all the Runners came back from the Maze. I searched the Runners for Minho but I couldn't find him. I turned around and searched the Glade and then I saw him coming out of the Map Room. I quickly walked up to him trying not to make it look to obvious that I was that angry at him. "Hey Tris", he just smiled at me, I didn't respond back or even smile back, I took his shirt and started to drag him towards the deadheads, "Tris seriously I thought you loved N-", he started but I cut him off but covering his mouth,
"Shut up", I hushed-yelled at him
"Okay okay", he said putting his hands up in the air
"Did you tell Jeff?" I scolded at him immediately
"Tell Jeff what?" he asked
"Don't play games with me", I warned
"Tell Jeff about your little 'thing'?" he asked. I then nodded,
"No I didn't tell him klunk", he said. I studied his eyes for a bit and realised that he wasn't lying. "Then how the shuck, did he find out", I said to him emphasising 'shuck',
"Wait he knows?" I nodded again. "How?" Gosh Minho with his questions. I then went on to tell him about how at lunch the wink and the little 'I'm not telling' game etc. "What if he was winking about something else", Minho stated at the end, what if he was, never thought of that. "Oh and Tris", Minho asked
"Hm?" I replied
"Can I have my shirt back?" he said, I then realised that I still had his shirt bunched up in my hand, "Oh sorry", I said letting him go and wiping my hands, "I'm going to go ask Jeff", I said and then walked off to find Jeff. I walked pretty quickly but you can't blame me I don't need everyone to know this. "Jeff!" I yelled out when I saw him
"Tris", he said giddily and then smirked at me
"Tell me!" I scolded at him
"Fine", he said not even putting up a fight. We walked off to the Deadheads and we both saw Newt on the way there looking at us and Jeff just smirked and winked but I ignored it even though my heart was flustering, Newt was staring at us, oh lord, us, I think, don't get the wrong idea please don't please newt please, I pleaded in my head.
"Last night I overheard you and Minho talking", he said finally once we were deep enough
"You what? And you stayed at listened?! What the shuck!" I said once again emphasising the shuck. "Yeah sorry", he said scratching the back of his head
"Why were you even awake?" I harshly said to him
"I had something to do", he said then quickly changed the subject, "Let's go dinner", he said and walked off. I hesitantly walked out of the Deadheads behind him. We sat down at the table all of us usually sit at and sitting there already was Newt, Minho, Chuck and Winston. "Hey guys", they all said in unison, "Hey", we replied back
"Tris why are you always in the Deadheads with a new guy?" Chuck said after I've sat down
"Huh?" I replied, when Chuck said that it sounded worse than I thought
"Well I saw you walk into the Deadheads with Minho then with Jeff, you guys aren't doing the little 'activity' are you?" Chuck asked, eyes widening when he said that
"No! What no! Why would yo- why would you, um, think that?" I asked stuttering, I saw Newt was staring at me now, no please don't hate me oh gosh no¸ I thought to myself, don't be such a little wimp gosh, wow myself doesn't like myself that much does it?
"Well it sure does look like it", Chuck said winking at us, I ignored the wink and just laughed, "Defiantly because I would do it with this princess Minho and Jeff the sexy nurse", then everyone laughed
"Princess Minho sounds like a good name for this shank", Newt finally spoke up
"Glad you agree", I said smiling, I looked up at him and saw he was looking at me, his brown eyes just gnawing into mine, burning into my skin, I could stare at them all day honestly, it was so beautiful and warm and, homey? Does that even make sense? Oh well, it's homey. If I even know what home is.
