The Glade 6
Gemma ended up getting her own room, the room was a floor above her old room. Alby said that Minho agreed to help her become a runner but Minho said that I had to listen to him when were in the Maze. Gemma agreed because she wanted to get away from Newt and if going to the Maze meant getting away from Newt then she had to do it.
Newt's point of view
Why was he so stupid? Newt kept thinking thoughts like these in his head until he went to sleep. When he woke up and found out that Gemma asked to be a runner. Newt tried to look for Gemma during breakfast but Alby said that she went to go eat in her room.
"Did you two get in a fight?" asked Minho.
"You could say that," said Newt while he ate some of Frypans bacon.
"Explain it to us," said Minho spitting out bits of bacon.
"Well, she was annoying me about wanting a break and I said fine and walked off to the woods and she followed me and I said somethings and she got mad and said somethings and she walked away and stopped talking to me, and I don't know what I did wrong." Said Newt.
"See Newt the problem is that you don't know how to talk to girls," said Minho like he knew what he was talking about. Alby came and sat by them and asked if they were going to help him throw one of the Gladers that broke the rules into the Maze.
"I guess I can help you," said Newt.
"Can't, I said I would help Gemma get ready for tomorrow," said Minho acting like it was nothing.
"Can I help you out with Gemma?" asked Newt.
"I'll ask her if she wants you near her but if she says no, then I'm sorry," said Minho walking off to go get Gemma.
Minho found Gemma in her room and walked in on her crying, he didn't mean to walk in on purpose but he should have thought about it. When Minho walked in Gemma quickly got out and wiped her face while Minho just stood there not knowing what to do so he said he was sorry.
"It's okay, I didn't expect you to come here so fast," said Gemma putting on her shoes.
"Is this about Newt?" asked Minho.
"Maybe," said Gemma whipping her face.
"He asked if he could come with us to the Maze tomorrow, what should I tell him?" asked Minho.
"Tell him," started Gemma, "tell him that he annoys me" said Gemma coldly.
"Isn't that a little harsh?" asked Minho.
"No, that's what he told me, so I'm returning his words back," said Gemma getting up to go out.
They both went outside and saw that they were throwing the boy who tried to drown another Glader in the pound, into the Maze.
"Has anyone ever made it alive?" asked Gemma.
"No, the Grievers usually get them and the next day we find their clothes somewhere in the Maze," said Minho.
"When do the Grievers come out?" asked Gemma getting worried.
"Don't worry Shank, they come out at night," said Minho. Then at that moment when Gemma was looking at the Keepers throw out the boy, her eyes met with Newt's and he looked like he saw a ghost. For a second Gemma thought she should go over there to talk to him, but then she remembered what he did to her. Did he not like her? She liked him a lot. Gemma just shrugged it off and continued to walk forward with Minho. They got to the map room and Minho showed Gemma everything in the map room and made her memorize all the changes in the Maze. They got done around dinner time and they started to walk out and stopped when Newt showed up. Newt was trying to talk to Gemma but Gemma said she had to go take a shower. Gemma walked away while Newt and Minho stayed back.
"Why won't she talk to me?" asked Newt.
"Don't know man, but when I can into her room she was crying and I asked why she was crying and she said you," said Minho.
"Really?" asked Newt.
"Yeah and then I told her that you asked to come to the Maze tomorrow and she said that 'no, he annoys me' and I said that that wasn't a little harsh and she said 'no, I'm just returning hos words'," said Minho as they walked back to the Glade.
Newt didn't eat his food that night, when they asked him what was wrong he would say "I missed up" was all he said. After dinner Newt went to go take a shower and saw Gemma come out of the girl's bathroom and she saw him but she walked away to the Homestead. Newt didn't want to make her madder so he just went in and took his shower and went to bed in his room.
Later in the night Newt heard a knock on his door and went to open it but forgot he was only wearing his boxers. He opened the door and saw the least expecting person in his doorway.
