Remember Me?

Chapter 6: "I'm Not Losing You."

Hannah's POV.

I was walking around the Maze for hours on end. I'd completely lost my way and it was getting dark. I felt a gritty wind fly past me. This was no normal wind.

"HEY!" I heard a voice. "HANNAH!" And it was looking for me. The voice was British and I recognised it immediately.

"NEWT?!" I screamed back. "WHERE ARE YOU!" I started running again. I heard him shouting and his voice getting louder and quieter constantly. I came to a four way crossing and saw how dark it was. There were some ivy vines growing up one of the walls. I stood near them and Newt ran right past me. I snatched his arm back and he hit me over the head with a pole he was carrying.

"Shit! Hannah! I'm so sorry! I thought you were..." He was cut off by a loud screech.

"What was that..."

Newt's eyes were more panicked than I'd ever seen before. "We have to go, NOW! Quick up them vines!" He gave me a boost up and pushed my bum to make me go faster.

"Newt!" I groaned.

"Now's not the time to be cute Hannah!" He yelled back seriously. I knew he was kind of joking though. His hand was still on my bum, I swatted it away and he giggled. Another loud screech bellowed through the Maze.

"What was that?" I ask whilst climbing a bit faster.

"You don't want to know. Just climb." We'd gotten about halfway up the wall and came to a small cave dug out of the wall. The vines grew over it so when we found it I kind of fell in. "Good idea! Hide and keep quiet." We huddled into the back of the hole we had to lie on our bellies to fit. It was so uncomfortable, but I was with Newt, so I kind of didn't care.

I whispered, "What are we hiding from?"

"Greivers." He said. He crawled closer to the edge and peeked out. He quickly crawled back and held one hand over my mouth and the other over his. "Shit..." Something crawled right up in front of us, so fast I couldn't tell what it was, but I could have a pretty good guess.

"Was... That..." He looked at me with wide eyes.

"Yep." I shuddered.

"I'm scared Newt, what if we don't make it..." He cut me off.

"Don't say that, okay? I'm not losing you!" He quickly pulled me in for a kiss. It was short, but reassuring. I felt safe again. "See if you can, try have a sleep." I nodded and cuddled into him. His arm was over my back and before I drifted off I heard Newt whisper to himself, "Maybe we'll be the first to survive..." He shut his eyes and dug back into the hole as far as he could with me beside him. All throughout the night there were greivers crawling around us. But luckily, none of them saw us. I was woken by Newt quite early. "Hey princess." His smile was the most gorgeous thing I'd ever seen. "Guess what?" I cocked my head at him. "We made it." He simply said.

Thomas' POV.

I hoped Newt and Hannah were okay. I was going to run in after him but I could already feel the wind coming. And I knew that neither of us would've made it back. Newt doesn't seem it, but he's a lot stronger than he comes across. I was really worried about Hannah too. She was the greenie and she wouldn't have been able to make it in there on her own. I mean, sure she's a girl and not most of us here know what girls are capable of but... I think I care about her in more than just, a 'friend' way... That kiss the other night. I felt something between us. I wonder if she felt the same way?

Me and the rest of the lads were asleep on the grass near the gate, waiting for them to get back. If they were going to make it. Gally woke us all up, but the gates had already opened. It seemed that we'd missed them opening. If they were coming back, they should've been here by now. But they weren't. Sean came over and started walking back with me.

"I recon they're okay. Just lost." He said. "What's it like in there?"

"Big." Was all I said.

"Oh... Good luck to them then." He chuckled and started walking faster than me. I wanted to hit him. He was talking crap about one of my good friends and a person who I didn't know what to think of as...

Newt's POV.

We did it. Me and Hannah survived a night. I know Thomas, Alby and Minho did, but neither of us got stung.

"Can we go now?" She asked me. Her eyes tired from all the running last night.

"We can try, the Maze has probably changed though. Couldn't you hear it last night?" She glared at me.

"Look at my eyes Newt!" She shouted. I think I agitated her... Whoops.

"Sorry! Sorry! Your tired, I know. I shouldn't have said that..." She started to crawl out and turned to face me then she grabbed the vines.

"You should be." She pulled herself out of the hole and took a few steps down the ivy. Her head popped back up. "Oh, and I'm NOT tired." She went down. Were all girls like this? It took us ages to get back to The Glade, but eventually we found the doors. We ran out of the Maze hand in hand. Chuck was walking away from the doors. He was alone.

"So where's our welcoming party then?!" I yelled in the sassiest way possible. Hannah seemed to like it as she laughed along. Chuck turned round and literally jumped all over the place.

"I knew you were going to make it!" He shouted. Other gladers began to notice our arrival and made their ways over. Thomas was one of the first to come. I saw him looking at mine and Hannah's hands. Our fingers were still intwined. He looked away and didn't make eye contact with me. I found that kind of strange.

"Hey, Thomas!" I waved and he returned it with a faint smile. Hannah had let go by now. She was talking to Gally and Winston about what happened. Thomas started to walk away. "Well that was weird?" I said.

"Ooh, someone's jealous!" Clint said. I looked at him strangely. "You know what I mean." He walked over to Jeff and they left. I let myself process what he was talking about...

No...
