It started the same way it always did. The maze. The walls. No glade. No safe space. No one with me. 128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeCQEL6EPL
The walls were taller than they should’ve been, stretching endlessly into the dark sky. I was running, lungs burning, feet pounding against stone but something was wrong. The paths kept shifting, closing behind me faster than I could turn around.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtfL7hRKta
I called out.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreoL2mt5x4
No one answered. I was scared. very.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31GXqAbuae
Then I heard it. The mechanical scratching of the grievers. 128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErOPxvpGlO
I called out to minho, to newt, but no answer.
I tried to move. My legs wouldn’t listen. I was frozen. Completely. 128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXYIRy6RSz
Suddenly, Newt's voice echoed through the maze.
“ADA HELP"
I whipped around. He was there—small, scared, standing too close to the walls. “Newt!” I shouted, reaching for him. But the ground started shaking, started pulling apart. Grievers coming every which way. 128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoY9Sf3x6Le
Then the doors began to move in crushing slowly. It wouldn't let me move.
And then—
I woke up gasping.
My body jolted upright, breath coming in sharp, uneven pulls. My shirt was damp with sweat, my hands shaking. The fire nearby had burned low, embers glowing faintly in the dark. I must have fallen asleep there. I don't really remember it.
“Hey hey, you’re okay.”
Newt. He was there. He always is. He was already kneeling beside my gripping my arm.
“You were dreaming,” he said softly. “You’re safe. You’re in the Glade.”128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINKF66TZLS
He then pulled me into his chest and hugged me very tightly. Whispering nothings in my ear.
"It's alright love" Newt says kissing the top of my head.
Newt stayed close, not crowding me, just there. “Nightmares happen,” he said gently. “Doesn’t make you weak.”128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDUjsvYZdy
“I know,” I said. “I just hate that I can’t protect everyone. Even in my head.”128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtj486phlZ
“Try to rest,” Newt murmured. “I’ll stay up.”
“So will I,” Minho added immediately.
I looked at both of them, heart heavy but full. “You don’t have to.”128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6HcWqU1fn
“We want to,” Newt said.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALfkH4oKGq
The maze was still there.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2TkjPEFZI
The fear didn’t disappear.
But this time, when I closed my eyes, I wasn’t alone.
And the nightmare didn’t come back.
I cling back to newt. He keep steady holding me even tighter.
