The Glader: Newt x OC

My Name Is Thomas:

"Save it for the hut!" One boy yelled.

"OKAY OKAY OKAY! THAT'S ENOUGH. SOMEONE PLEASE WASH OUT MY EYES!" Winston screamed.

Molly smacked him on the arm and went, "Aw."

Daniel laughed.

I put Zoe back on her feet and led her back to the table.

"Gosh, I should leave you with these shanks more often," She teased and fed me a piece of pancake with her fork.

"I swear if you two don't get off each other I am going to get sick," Winston teased.

"Oh Winston. I'll find you a wife one day," Zoe replied.

"Yeah well, I hope she's nice like you," My friend replied.

I put my arm around the girl beside me, "Find your own! This one is mine."

Clint, jeff, and Zoe opened up the med-hut for the day so I headed to the gardens for a while. Just before lunch time the alarms rang loud and clear throughout the glade. We all sprinted to the box. The two, solid, metal doors on top slid open. Gally pulled open the grated top and jumped in.

A dark-haired, tall, muscular boy sat on the floor of the box. His gray shirt was edged with sweat. He held his arm up to block the sunlight.

"Day one greenie. Rise and shine!" Gally said and tossed the boy out of the box. Why he chose to give every newbie a traumatic entry to our glade I could not figure out. The greenie rolled over on his back with brown eyes looking around frantically. I stared down at the new boy. He couldn't be much older than me.

"I could some help in the kitchen," Frypan said. All the boys voices announced ideas of where he would be most useful.  The greenie scrambled to his feet, burst through the gap between two gladers, and took off running across the glade.

"Hey, Looks like we got a runner!" Zart yelled. The greenie face planted into the grass.

"Oof," Zoe and Molly said in unison. 

The rest of the gladers laughed. I felt slightly bad for the guy. Minho laughed beside me. Newbie pulled himself up and looked around at the walls. Everyone started applauding. Two of the gladers approached our newest member. He was a little nervous at first. The boys grabbed his arms and dragged him off to the pits.

"He just needs to blow off some steam," Alby said. "Then we can break him in."

                 About an hour later I noticed Alby walking by with the greenie. I walked over to them.

"Hey Alby?" I asked.

"Greenbean," Alby turned to face me. "Meet newt. When I'm not around he's in charge."

I shook the greenies hand, "Well it's a good thing you're always around then." My gaze shifted to our newbie, "Listen that was some dash you made earlier. Almost thought you had the chops to be a runner. 'Till you faceplanted."

Alby chuckled.

"That's great."

The greenie cocked an eyebrow, "Wait. Runner?"

"Newt do me a favor?" Alby asked. I nodded.

"Go find chuck? Think I saw him trailing after Zoe."

I walked off to find our last greenie.

Sure enough. I found Chuck sitting on a crate asking Zoe what she was doing as she mixed up more toothscrub.

"Hi Newt," He smiled when I walked in.

"Hey pal," I rubbed his head.

"Ah there's my favorite glader," Zoe kissed me. "How's newbie?"

"Good. I came to find Chuck actually. He's been promoted."
