~Minho~ Into The Maze

~Minho X Female Reader~

               It's been a year since I was trapped in this maze and I am still the only girl here. The worst part there is still no way out. I haven't been in the maze for two weeks because Minho hadn't let me all because I almost missed the deadline to the walls closing. I know I could have been trapped in the Maze to die a horrid death, but the fact is I made it back before the walls closed. He had considered not allowing me to be a runner anymore, for my so-called 'safety'. Luckily the thought died quickly and ever since I've been out of the maze I've been stir crazy. I stay in the woods most of the time since then taking out my frustration on the makeshift punching bag I had. I try not to be mad at Minho because I could have been thrown in the pit, but I hated standing around feeling useless. The maze was our only way out and I wanted to help yet I'm here. Since the two weeks that I've been out of the maze, I've been helping Newt with gardening which is a complete waste of my skills. "(Y/n)!" I hear Minho yell for me I ignore him and continue punching the punching bag "(Y/n) why didn't you answer me!" Minho asked while approaching me seeming angry "I'm busy if you hadn't noticed," I told him still concentrating on the punching bag "(Y/n) do you want a night in the pit?" He asked, "for what?" I asked him angry turning to face an angry Minho. He started walking towards me in fast strides I unconsciously walked backward. I hit the wall slightly and straighten myself up trying to seem confident and unafraid. I glare up at Minho he puts his hands on the wall behind my head boxing me in so I'm trapped in front of him. He leans down to my ear "for being a sassy brat to your keeper," I scoff while holding back a blush from his close proximity "I can say whatever I want to you slinthead," he looks in my eyes as I glare at him "why are you so damn infuriating?" He asked me searching my eyes for something. I look at him with a puzzled look "I don't know why you're even here unless its to tell me I can go in the maze tomorrow morning," I told him averting my eyes from his. He didn't say anything for a while leaving me to notice how close we really were and there was nowhere I could escape to. "(Y/n)" Minho said gently I look back up at him "you can only run in the maze with me I'll make sure you don't get left to the grievers," he told me with a smile I got extremely happy at the news I'd be back in the maze tomorrow. I hugged Minho "Thank you Minho!" I said he soon hugged back and I ran to tell Newt I wouldn't be in the gardens tomorrow
~in the maze~
I woke up early ready to go back to find our way out. I got dressed and we head into the mess hall to get breakfast before heading into the maze. I enter the mess and Ben greets me first with a big hug "(Y/n) I see Minho finally let you back in, it's good to have you back,"  he told me with a smile "thanks ben it's good to be back!" I told him as he sets me back on the ground "you wanna run with me today?" he asked wiggling his eyebrows I laughed "I can't I'm only allowed to run with Minho now keepers orders," Ben looked over at Minho and rubbed the back of his neck "what a shame, maybe we can hang out after," he suggested making me smile I wasn't interested in Ben but he's a lot of fun to be around "maybe," I tell him and go get my breakfast. The entire time while eating breakfast and talking to the other runners Minho was quiet. I could tell he was thinking about something, but I couldn't tell you what it was. When we finish eating Minho told each pair of two where they'd be running and two by two we all set off into the maze Minho and I being the last two. Once we entered I felt at home which was a little odd to most gladers since I was in the most dangerous place in our world. Minho was even less talkative than usual. I had ran with Minho before and he is usually a little quiet but not like this. When we stopped for lunch I decided to ask if everything was okay "Minho, what's eating you?" "what do you mean shank?" he asked defensively I was shocked he wasn't calling me shank in a joking way but in an insulting way " Minho don't lie to me we've known each since I got to the maze in the beginning what's eating you?" he gave me a slight glare "you wanna know what's eating me you're what's eating me, you're, you're just so infuriating!" he shouted in my face. Now I was mad I was just being a concerned friend but now I'm wishing I had let him wallow in his little pity party. "Me? What have I done to you Minho?" I ask anger seeping through every word and as I say it I take strides to get in his face. "(Y/n) all you do is put yourself in danger and you flirt with Ben right-" he started ranting then I interrupt him "Wait, wait, wait why does it matter to you who I flirt with!" I yell at him even angrier than I was before. I look at him with a glare and I notice a blush painting his cheeks he sighs running a hand through his hair "(Y/n) the truth is I like you! I've liked you for as long as I could remember, but when you almost got lost in the maze I was so mad at myself I just I don't know," he said I had never seen Minho like this he was never the type to be emotional. I never admitted it to anyone but I liked Minho I just never thought he'd be interested. "Minho I like you too," I said he turned around shocked and immediatly kissed me. I knew this was the start of something beautiful.
