(Alex's POV)

That night we decided that we were going to have some sort of celebration in honor to the new Greenie. Taking a sip out of Gally's secret recipe, I caught sight of Thomas who was staring from afar just across the bonfire. He was sitting alone against a log until Newt decided to make him some company.

I looked away and tried to concentrate on the boys that were having fun wrestling inside the sand circle. I saw Gally beat the 'klunk' out of a Glader making me chuckle. As if he was sensing my stares he looked directly at me and smirked. When he finished, he got off from the boy and made his way over to me.

''Give me that'' He said taking the half empty jar from my hands.

''I didn't saw you in all day'' I said, a playful smile on my face and giving him a little nudge with my elbow.

''I missed you too'' he mocked pressing his lips to the jar and taking a sip of my old drink.

You see, Gally, although he could be a jerk sometimes, he was nice to me and I was glad about it. He had a reputation for being an asshole and I'm aware that it's only been only two months but I feel like I know him better than anyone else.

We chat a little bit and then find ourselves talking about nonsense and sitting under a tree that was next to Homestead.

Looking over Newt and the greenie, Gally laughed when he saw him choke on the drink he was given by Newt.

I grabbed a nearby twig and started sharpening one of the ends to make an arrow, with a small knife.

''Guess he doesn't like your secret recipe, Gals'' I teased.

(MEANWHILE)

(3rd POV)

Thomas heard laughing coming from across the bonfire and turned to see Alex laughing hysterically while Gally leaned closer to her whispering something in her ear.

''What's their story?'' Thomas questioned, wanting Newt to elaborate on the relationship between Alex and Gally.

The blonde boy chuckled and turned around too.

''Who? Gally and Alex? Mate, they're just friends. She's like his little sister. They had grown close in the short time she had been in the Glade. Hell, every Glader here will give up anything to protect her and it's only been two months.''

''What group is she in?'' Thomas asked not taking his eyes off the pair.

''She is a med-jack. One of the greatest''

(END OF 3rd POV)

Finally, I stopped laughing and it took me a while to notice that Thomas was looking straight at me, I looked at him but this time he didn't changed his gaze. Gally stopped laughing as well when he noticed I was looking at Thomas. He mockingly asked if he wanted something and I quickly shifted my gaze. He was like this on the first month whenever a bunch of guys wouldn't stop looking at me or started give me wolf whistles. I looked at him from the corner of my eyes, there was an odd glint in his eyes, something I had never seen before.

I know this chapter was really short but I promise that the next one is going to be longer :)
