𝐑𝐞𝐝𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐲 - Maze Runner, Newt

Chapter thirty-one - Mad

When I woke up Newt was already gone. Quickly I put on green pants and a black top before getting breakfast.

'Thank you, Fry.' I said once Frypan gave me the food.

'Of course.' Frypan smiled.

I walked over to Chuck who was sitting all alone. 'Hey, Chuck.'

'Nor!' Chuck's eyes lit up when he saw me.

'How you doing? How do you like it here?' I asked the kid.

'It's fine.' Chuck replied.

'Glad to hear that.' I smiled and ate my food.

'Again?' I sighed when Logan walked into the med-hut. 'Aren't you supposed to be running?'

'I'm clumsy.' Logan shrugged and sat down on a chair in front of me. He showed me his hand, which had a large cut on it.

'You've gotta be more careful.' I said.

'So I need to follow Nora's orders now?' Logan joked.

'Yes.' I sternly replied, trying not to smile.

'You better be more careful yourself then.' Logan laughed.

'What did I do now?' I mocked jokingly.

'Your wrist is bleeding.' Logan pointed at my sleeve, which had a few red stains on it. My smile immediately disappeared and I moved my wrist out of Logan's sight.

'We've gotta treat that.' Jeff said.

'No!' I quickly said, a little too loudly.

As fast as possible I bandaged Logan's cut with shaking hands. 'Done.' I said.

'Thanks.' Logan didn't get up. 'Let Jeff treat your wrist.' He looked at me.

'It'll be fine.' I replied. I absolutely didn't want them to find out about my cuts too.

'Gosh, you're stubborn.' Logan sighed, but still didn't leave.

'Logan, it's okay. Just go now.' It felt bad to say, but he had to leave.

Before Logan could reply Jeff talked. 'More blood is coming out. Just let me bandage it up.'

'I'll bandage it up myself later.' I answered. 'I don't get why you guys are making such a problem out of this.'

'I don't get why you are making such a problem out of this! Why can't you just roll up your sleeve?' Logan raised his voice a little. Jeff and Clint waited for me to respond.

'I don't want to have a fight with you too, Logan.' I replied.

'Don't make such a deal out of this!' Logan frustratingly ran a hand trough his hair.

'I'm not gonna do it, okay?' I harshly got up from my seat and walked past Logan, who grabbed my wrist. My face was washed over with pain and I clenched my jaw.

'Let go, Logan.' I slowly said trough my teeth.

Logan grip loosened and I pulled away. With tears in my eyes I walked out of the med-hut and ran over to the deadheads.

I didn't get why Logan made such a big deal out of it. Sure, he was worried about the blood, but he didn't just get to force me. Mad I sat down in front of the small lake and buried my head in my hands. Worried about Logan being mad at me I sat there for a while. I bit my lip until I tasted blood. After a while I got up and walked back to the med-hut. Without saying anything and not even looking at Jeff and Clint, I sat down.
