"You have to tell him," Teresa begged as we sat in our room in the homestead. Being the only two girls meant we got our own room. We were discussing our crushes- hers being Thomas and mine being Newt."I can't. He won't like me. Everyone here likes you," I said pointing to her. She definitely was the hotter, cuter, smarter, skinnier and prettier one of the two of us. It made sense how the boys flung themselves at her. She complained about it constantly.
"Maybe, but I think he likes you. I mean he acts all nervous around you and stutters. I'm gonna make it my mission to get you two together," she beamed and crossed her arms over her chest in proudness.
"Then I promise to get you and Thomas together," I remarked as her mouth fumbled for words.
"Fine. We'll go right now and talk to them, okay?" I groaned at the thought of her talking to newt but nodded. I mean what the heck, Thomas is one of my best friends.
"Hopefully by the end of tonight, we won't he single. Cross our fingers," she squealed and ran out of the room.
I slowly left and walked towards the fire where the boys were. Newt had wandered off so Teresa went to find him. Let's just hope she doesn't ruin anything for me.
"Hey (Y/N)," Thomas smiled as me while grabbing a jar of Gally's drink with me.
"Hey Tommy," I said taking a sip. "So... you and Teresa." I wiggled my eyebrows and elbowed him lightly.
He just laughed and pushed my arm down. "Calm down (Y/N). Yeah, I like her. Don't tell her!"
"Really? Dude, go ask her out. She likes you too," I said as his cheeks flushed red. He rubbed the back of his neck nervously.
"Okay. I will. Thanks (Y/N)," he pulled me into a hug before wandering off somewhere. I wanted to see if I could find Teresa and tell her about Thomas and ask about what Newt said.
I looked all around the bonfire and decided to go look by the gardens knowing he hides there sometimes at night. I'm not a stalker, I just know when he can't sleep he goes there.
As I come around to them, I hear two people talking before it goes silent. I can't hear who it is so I keep walking. I walk past a wall of vines when my mouth falls open.
Newt and Teresa were busy with their tongues halfway down each other's throats. His hands were on her cheeks and hers were over his. I just sucked in a hot breath before turning around and running towards the deadheads.
"(Y/N)!" I hear Teresa call but I ignore it. I also ignore Thomas and Minho's questions if I'm okay. They happen to look where i was running from to see newt and Teresa leaving the gardens and put the pieces together.
I kept running until I found myself lost in the woods. I pushed my hair back suddenly frightened as to how to get out. I had ran in here before but never this deep or this disheveled.
I found a patch of green in the center of the brown grass and sat down. I curled myself into a ball not bothering to cover up the sobs escaping my mouth. I covered my mouth while biting my lip when I heard crunching of leaves. I couldn't move or breath at the moment and I was fine with it.
Everything in me hurt so much I figured eventually i would pass out from the pain. On cue, my head spun and my eyes became heavy. I laid my arm under my head as I finally fell unconscious.
Teresa's POV
"Newt I happen to know a certain girl having a liking of you," I smirked after finding him in the gardens. (Y/N) told me he once that he likes coming here so this was the first place I looked.
"Oh really," he returned the smirk and stood up. He was now walking towards me with Gally's terrible drink in his hands. The drink was awful and I'm still not sure how anyone here can drink it. "And who might that be?"
"She's a really nice girl. She's liked you ever since she met you and she's really pretty," I smiled as he broke the space between us.
"Well you are very pretty," he said putting his hand on my cheek. My eyes went wide as I went speechless.
"Wait what-"
My voice was cut off by his lips on mine. My eyes went wide in shock but he wouldn't budge. I suddenly fell into the kiss noticing how good of a kisser he was.
I heard a soft gasp behind me and spun around tearing myself from Newt. (Y/N) took off running away from the gardens with a broken face.
"(Y/N)!" I called and ran after her but she was too fast. She was a runner after all.
"What's wrong?" Newt asked at the edge of the gardens. I just watched (Y/N) ran past everyone and into the woods. Oh no. This wasn't supposed to happen.
"Newt I didn't mean me! I meant (Y/N)!" I pushed my hair out of my face and covered my shaking lip. I was crying now. She would never forgive me for this. I know I wouldn't if it was reversed. "God how could you not see it? Every boy here knows she loves you!"
"Teresa I-I'm sorry, I just thought," he stuttered and looked down.
I was sobbing now as he pulled me into his chest. I was a crying mess knowing I just lost my best friend. "She'll never forgive me. She's hates me!"
"I'll make it up to you. To both of you. I'm sorry I kissed you," he said comforting me. "If I knew you meant her I wouldn't have kissed you. I swear. I don't wanna loose my best friend either."
"It doesn't matter. I just lost my best friend," I whispered and pulled myself into a hug. "I have to go and do something." I walked off towards where she ran off to hoping to somehow get her to forgive me.
(Y/N)'s POV
I was woken up a few minutes after passing out in someone's arms. They were carrying me out of the woods bridal style to the homestead. Now I was crying again and tugging on Minho's collar. He carried me into my room and set me in my bed. He took my shoes off for me and put me in the bed.
"No, no, no, Minho. I can't sleep here," I stuttered now shaking from the crying and the cold of the glade air.
"You can sleep with me (Y/N)." He took my hand and walked with me out of the homestead. Teresa was now running towards me with red cheeks. I turned my head away from her and walked in a complete different direction towards the hammocks.
"(Y/N) Wait! Let me explain what happened," she yelled to me but I just tugged on Minho's arm. He took the hint and walked faster with his hand on my hip. He was always like a big brother to me and right now I was extremely grateful.
"(Y/N), please! I need to explain what you saw," she begged standing in front of me.
"How could you? You betrayed me. You can have every boy in this glade but you still chose the one I wanted. Don't talk to me again." I didn't mean for my voice to come out cold but I was wearing my pain like clothes.
"No it's not like that. I was telling him someone like him and he thought I meant me and he just kissed me." I scoffed when Newt ran over.
"I'm not a shucking idiot Teresa. I know the difference from a kiss and sucking each other's faces," I scoffed and walked past her.
