Faith
I woke up the next morning still in Newts arms as he remained fast asleep. I smiled knowing we had kissed last night. But it brought a worry deep down within me. I know I love him. Now if anything happens to him I'll not only loose a friend, but so much more. I'll lose my hope, happiness and I'd loose myself.
But I went to thinking about the future. What would happen if we did make it out of here alive? Would me and Newt have a future? I thought about the outside world and what sort of life we'd all have. I wouldn't want to leave anyone. I'm sure we'd all live close together. Maybe Newt and I would even live together. I daydreamed about a happy future and the long lives we'd live.
But my thoughts were cut short by a loud voice ordering people around. That was my job. I shook Newt awake and sat up alert at the sound of a door being slammed.
I stood up and quickly walked to the door. A hand grabbed mine and I looked up to see Newts worried face. I shrugged before pushing open the door and running out to the glade where I saw the gladers gathered around Gally.
"What the hell is going on?!" I yelled at them all causing Gally to turn quickly.
"Sorry Faith. But I think it's time for a leadership change. We all agree that Thomas and the girl have made this glade hell. And they should be punished"
"No! How dare you" I spat at him and looked towards the pit where Thomas and Teresa were being kept.
"We all think it!" He yelled as I walked over to the pits, joined by Minho,Chuck and Newt.

"Maybe he's right. I saw it. We did this to them Teresa we helped do this" Thomas said looking at the dirt.
"None of that matters now." I said shaking my head.
"She's right. You've been put in here just like the rest of us." Newt said.
"And now you could be getting us out" Chuck bubbles and I smiled.
"Exactly. But you've started this, we might as well end it, pick our asses up and get out of here" Newt spoke semi inspirationally. 
"Ok I have a plan" Thomas said and  we all listened to him as he explained the plan.

"Gally don't do this" I said as we all stood in a group watching Thomas and Teresa be tied to giant poles.
"I have to. Once the grievers get them all the destruction will be over"
"You're offering them to the grievers..." I said and he nodded. Everything was silent and I looked to Minho. He gave me a slight nod and I elbowed one of the boys in the back making him drop the ropes on Teresa. I helped her up and pulled her into our tight group. We were leaving.
"You don't have to follow him. I know your scared. I'm scared too but I'm willing to die out there trying to escape rather than cower away in here." Thomas spoke and I stood up straight feeling Newts hand brush against mine.
I looked between the boys and stepped forward. "You all used to trust me. And I think most of you still do. So you have to trust me when I say we're breaking out of here. I know it's scary because this is all we've known. But this isn't it. There's something more. Just trust me" I said and a few boys went from Gally's side to mine. "Gally come with us. Please" I said but he shook his head.
"Maybe I'll see you again one day. Good luck" I nodded and looked to Thomas. He nodded back and we all started running.

We ran for what felt like forever,but I stayed by Thomas' side the whole time, trying to not think about what could be waiting.
As we came to a corner I signalled for everyone to stop as Thomas poked his head round the corner.
"Is there a griever?" Chuck asked and Thomas nodded holding a spear in hand.
"Chuck stay with Teresa and hold onto this." Thomas said handing Chuck the little metal contraption that was supposedly getting us out.
"We're getting out of here. And we're getting out now. Or we die trying to get out." Thomas said and looked to me. "Anything else?"
"Er" What could I say? "Don't die?" I said more like a question and Minho started to laugh quietly.
"Bloody inspirational" Newt scoffed and it caused a laugh throughout the group. With our hope raised along with our weapons the group ran round the corner.  I pulled Newt back as he was just about to run.
His body crashed back into mine and I held his face, pressing my lips against his. I held him close trying to make the kiss last as long as I could.
"Stay close" he whispered as I pulled back and I nodded. "Hey, if anything happens"
"I love you" I finished for him and he nodded.
