"No (Y/N) wait. I thought she meant she liked me. I didn't want to hurt either of you. It was all my fault," Newt explained but I just tugged Minho harder and put him in front of me.
"I think you two should go. Preferably before I feed you to the shucking grievers," Minho growled at each of them. I buried my face in my hands crying again not bothering to run away anymore. I had no energy.
"Please let us talk, (Y/N)," Newt begged. Why did he care? He was too busy sucking the life out of Teresa to notice me before.
"Go away. She doesn't want to talk to either of you," Minho hissed standing, well my ground.
"(Y/N) Im really sorry. I love you though. So much. I'm so sorry," Teresa cried but i couldn't move my face from my hands let alone feel sorry for her in any way.
I heard their feet leave before Minho wrapped me in his arms. He pushed me lightly to walk in the direction I needed to go. He brought me to his hammock tucked in the center of the boys and laid inside. He pulled me onto his chest and wrapped his arms around me.
By now, some word had spread about a fight between myself, Newt and Teresa which embarrassed me completely. I was gonna be a laughing stock for the next month.
I cried into Minho allowing him to quietly shush me to calm down. It took a couple minutes but I stopped crying and closed my eyes.
"Thanks Minho," i hiccuped from all the crying.
"Of course (Y/N). I have to be your big brother." I cuddled into him and finally let myself fall asleep.
-- next day --
I was woken up for my run today only to be told from the keeper I had the day off.
"No, Min I'm running. I need to get my mind off everything that's happened," I said lacing my sneakers.
"Alright. But I want you running with me and Thomas, okay?" I nodded at his offer and walked with him to the kitchens to grab my food.
I noticed the looks I was getting. Half of them were pity and the other half were judgmental. I was just some fragile girl now who had her heart broken.
I grabbed my food for today and put it inside my runners strap tied around my left thigh. As Minho and I walked towards the open doors, I noticed the two boys at entrance: Newt and Thomas.
"Min," I whispered and he spun around to face me. He cupped my cheeks and pulled my eyes to his.
"It's gonna be okay. You have to face him. He's just sending us off and then it'll be just three of us in the maze, alright?" I nodded in his hands before feeling him peck my forehead. He really was like my older brother, always looking out for me.
As we walked to the entrance, Newt quickly ran up to me. "(Y/N) please can we talk? I need to explain everything. Please, I don't wanna loose you."
"Newt what did I say last night," Minho growled pushing Newt back lightly.
"Minho. Give me a second," I whispered as he took only three steps back from us and to Thomas.
"I didn't know you liked me. I thought she was talking about herself so I thought she wanted to kiss me, so I did. She didn't want to kiss me but I pushed her. (Y/N), you're my best friend and I can't loose you. I know I like you but I don't know if it's more than a friend but I know I don't like Teresa," he ranted but I spent most of the time staring at him instead of listening. I didn't care what he was saying.
"It doesn't matter. None of it," I said emotionless. "She betrayed me. There was no way there wasn't any feeling in that kiss. And you? How can I ever look at you again knowing you know I like you and you don't like me back? Im just an embarrassment and I don't need you. I don't need Teresa. I don't need anyone. I'll do what I told myself to do when I first got here; I'll work my ass off alone before going to sleep alone and then wake up alone and repeat the process. Do whatever the hell you want with each other. I'm done."
"No please don't say that. I pushed myself on Teresa. (Y/N) you're our best friend and we can't lose you. I know I have feelings for you somewhere-"
"Stop. You focus on your work and I'll focus on mine. All that matters is getting out of the maze so I can be as far away from everyone as I can. Goodbye," I said pushing past him. Thomas and Minho looked at me as if to ask if I was okay.
"Let's go." Again, no emotions. I darted into the maze with the boys quick behind me. They caught up and stood on my either side.
"(Y/N)," Thomas whispered but I kept my eyes forward.
"I meant what I said. All that's matters is getting out of here. Not relationships. We have a job to do," I said blankly. Everything in me felt numb. I wasn't myself anymore. I was just a hollow shell of my old self.
"We love you (Y/N). Please just know that," Minho added. I looked at him and gave him a half smile.
"Love you too," I mumbled and focused back on running.
