See You Soon~~~~~Newt(The Maze Runner)

Chapter 3

In the end, we decided that Alby, Ted, Minho, and George would go outside of the walls tomorrow, and Gally, Nick, the blond boy, and I would stay and plant the seeds they left us and maybe build a little, just kinda do whatever needs to be done.

No one really knew what to do for the rest of the night. It was too dark to do any more work, so we ate and then we just kinda sat there, all of us lost in our own thoughts. Nick had a piece of paper and a pencil and was drawing or writing something. I have no idea how long we sat there in silence just thinking, everyone in their own little world, but the next time that I looked at my watch it was 7: PM. I was exhausted. I don't even know I fell asleep considering it was so early, but I did. I wasn't even in my sleeping bag. I just lay down and went to sleep.

<><>

When I woke up, the first thing I noticed was that I was warm and comfy; I did not want to get up. I tried to look at my watch but I struggled to get my arm out from under the blanket. Wait. I didn't fall asleep with a blanket; someone must have put it over me. I made a mental note to thank whoever did it later. My watch told me that it was 1:08 AM. I really shouldn't have gone to sleep so early. Movement near me made me lose my train of thought. I looked for what made the noise and made out the shadow of someone sitting up, presumably in deep thought. I sat up and turned towards him. He finally noticed that I was awake and turned toward me.

"It's just so bloody frustrating. Everything about this place, but I just don't understand why I can't remember my bloody name." I figured out that this was the blond boy, and I realized that this was definitely the most I had ever heard the boy speak. His accent was really thick right now, I mean he said the word 'bloody' twice, but I had to agree with what he was saying.

"Yeah, everyone else's name came so easily to them, I don't get why we can't remember. I mean it's my name. I should just know it right?"

"I guess, I just really wish I could remember." We both went quiet for a while. The only sound was an occasional snore coming from one of the guys. on the other side of the group. I couldn't see the boy's face, but I assumed that he was deep in thought. I was too. Suddenly the boy spoke again.

"Why the hell do you think we're here? I mean it doesn't make sense. Why would someone take away our memories and put us in this place? What's the point?"

"I really wish I knew the answer to that. Maybe we're just supposed to make a community or get out of here or I don't know maybe we're supposed to kill each other. I have no fucking idea."

"I just hope it's not that last one" I could hear a hint of a smile as he talked.

We fell into another comfortable silence. I didn't really realize this, but we had scooted closed to each other as we talked. I kept thinking about why we were there. Nothing about this place made sense. I lay back down but didn't fall asleep right away. I kept thinking.

"Goodnight," the blond boy said.

"Night," I replied sleepily. Only a few seconds later I fell into the welcoming arms of sleep.

<> Day 3<> I awoke to the sound of people talking. I didn't sleep well last night. I awoke a few more times to the screeching noise that I had heard the night before. Based on the brightness of the sun and the rumbling noise. The walls were now opening. I opened my eyes to find that I was a few feet away from the blond boy. He was about as awake as I was, his hair sticking in all directions, messy, but not necessarily a bad messy. I forced myself to stop thinking about that and start thinking about the day before us. I looked around and saw everyone awake. Most of us looked extremely tired, but Minho looked more awake than I had ever seen him. I'm 99% sure it was because he knew he got to leave today. I honestly don't understand people like that. Like why do people like to be in potential danger? I'm more than happy to stay where I am, if I know I'm safe.
