Khash and Umber's RP Group discussion

Gears ran back inside the Glade. It was a beautiful morning and she had just finished her morning shift in the Maze. Minho ran behind her, along with the newbie, Thomas. Gears nodded to Minho.
"I'm gonna go grab a drink," she called, and went off to the kitchens.
"Mari!" she smiled at her bestie, who was cooking something with a disgusted look on her face.

"What is this crap?" Mari muttered, grossed out. "It's like green mini trees!" She complained to Fry.
Her eyes brightened at Gears. "Hey!"

Gears laughed at her friend's comment, peering into the horrendous dish.
"Yuck," she stuck out her tongue. "Do we really need to eat tha...."
Gears trailed off as she caught sight of a tall boy with sandy hair. His brown eyes were narrowed in the sun as he limped across the field.
Gears felt her cheeks heat, tongue twisted.

I followed Gear's gaze, already knowing, and smirked. Newt. He was pretty cute- but girl code. Plus, I had my eyes on Rhys. I heard fingers snap and Fry was smirking at both of us. "Mari, eyes on the food, don't want it to burn."
"Is it even food?" I complained.

((Wait can I use "I said" too? Or "Gears said"? Or I could put GEARS at the top of each post then say "I Said"??))

(Whatever you want HEH)

-GEARS-
I blushed, quickly tearing my gaze away from Newt and meeting Mari's smirking features.
"What?" I snapped matter-of-factly. "Just- just enjoying the scenery."

(SAME THEN IM USED TO FIRST PERSON)

"The big walls?" I laughed- Mari-. "It's okay, we know, Gears." I turned my attention back to the fake gross food and flipped it, serving all the 'mini trees' onto a big platter. I took out my golden whistle and blew it. I had came with that whistle in the Box, and it was my call for food.

-GEARS-
I rolled my eyes, snatching a plate and holding it out to Mari.
"Give me some mini trees, girl," I said dryly.
After I was dished up, I went to sit by the fire, which was out, because it was morning and still pretty warm out.
I took a bite and nearly spat it out. "Crap," I hissed under my breath."
Suddenly, I felt a hand on my shoulder.
"Mari, what is this stuff--" I started to say, then broke off.
Newt sat down beside me, grinning and bumping my shoulder wit his. "You were saying, love?"
I snapped my mouth shut. "I- I"
I looked frantically at Mari, who was dishing up the other Gladers.
'BESITE!!!' I screamed in my head, 'HELP!'

I was serving the boys when I felt a twinge from the corner of my eyes. An urge to look. I sneaked a glance for a second. Newt wasn't in line for food... and Gears was eating. OH- I thought. I looked over and silently laughed.

-GEARS-
I started to panic. Like, PANIC. Forget facing Grievers, talking to NEWT was terrifying.
"I, uh..." I stammered. "Just, saying h-how good the food is..." And I took a huge bit, nearly choking.
Newt gave me a sly grin, leaning over and licking his thumb, wiping some dirt from my cheek. "Saw you running today," he said.
I swallowed my food. Disgusting.
"Uh... yeah?" I said.
'Mariiiiiiiii..........' I thought.

I handed the food over to Fry. "Serve 'em, please. Nasty hungry boys, I gotta avoid. I joked.
"Sure." He took the plate and started serving the rest of the boys. I wiped my hands on my apron, which was dirty itself, and started to Newt and Gears before I felt a hand on my shoulder. I spun around, immediately whacking the hand away, my eyes narrowing.
"Rhys?"

-GEARS-
I caught sight of Mari standing with Rhys. She looked tough, facing him evenly, but I could tell she was nervous.
I knew Marigold like no one else.
"Gears? Hey," Newt took my chin in his hand, tilting me to face him. Electricity shot through me, and I quickly stood up.
"Sorry, Newt, I... I have to go," I quickly started over to Mari, just in case I had to save my bestie.

"You know not to touch and scare me like that- your nose would've been cut off." I scowled. How could Gears and I be seeing our crushes at the same time...? My mind was going haywire.
"Sorry didn't mean to but- did you add more mini braids to your hair?" Rhys smirked. "Someone you seeing?"
I scowled at him again. "Shut up and no-"

-GEARS-
I sensed trouble. I jumped between Rhys and Mari, pushing Rhys back a few paces.
"Clearly, you don't know what personal space is, Rhys," I said.
His mouth twitched irritably. "Back off, Gears, I was just teasing."
Heat rose in my stomach. My hot temper was always a curse.
"Why're you so grumpy?" he asked.
I growled, clenching my fists.

((uh oh she angy angy girl. PFFT. Also can we pretend Teresa doesn't exist?))

I started to laugh, breaking down till I slumped on my knees, tears pouring down my cheeks. Obviously, it was my time of the month and I seemed high.
"It's okay- Gears." I straightened. "He was just flir- talking ."
Rhys handsome face twisted in amusement as he crossed his lean arms. Stop staring

Umber wrote: "((uh oh she angy angy girl. PFFT. Also can we pretend Teresa doesn't exist?))"

(YES.)

((you da best))

((<333))

I watched Mari break down before straightening herself.
I glowered at Rhys. "Don't be a jerk, and you won't lose a limb, gotcha?"
Rhys pushed me lightly back, to tease, but I was caught off guard, stumbling. I tripped on a rock, about to crash backwards when suddenly strong arms catch me.
I yelp, the smell of grass and ashes all around me.

"Rhys!" I scolded, leaning slightly forward. I knew two things:
1. Gears was fine, she knew how to handle herself.
2. I knew who had caught her and I tried not to laugh.
"Sorry- my bad." Rhys smirked but he was trying to hold in a laugh. "We all know Gears; she's fine." I tried not to agree with him but I did.
"Hey, Newt." I smiled at Gears in his arms. "Why didn't you eat?"

I felt heat spread across my skin. NewtNewtNewt.
I looked at Mari. My throat was dry.
Help, I mouthed.

I held her hand and picked her up, letting her lean on me.
"Shove off, guys, go eat." I rolled my eyes and walked off with Gears. Once we were away, I squealed. "OH. MY. GOD."

I stared at the sky, shaking.
I looked at Mari. "D-did that just happen?"
My waist still burned from where Newt caught me.

"Yes!" I squealed again, giggling. To Rhys, I was ferocious and snappy, and to the rest of the boys, but to Gears, I was girly.
"That happened!" I laughed. "And Rhys approached me at the same time..." I turned to Gears, confusion on my face. "Do you think they know?"

I rolled my eyes. "Boys are too stupid to know."
((IM SORRY THIS IS SO LONG BUT I LOVE IT))

((THE NEXT DAY, IN THE AFTERNOON SO IT'S GETTING DARK))
I trotted down the pathway in the Maze, wrinkling my nose at the stink of decay. Something had been eating at me all day, something about the Maze...
It hadn't been my shift, but I slunk away before anyone noticed or stopped me.
I needed to find something. But what was it?
A sound from far away made me freeze. I swallowed, standing straighter. 'Probably just another Runner,' I thought, trying to reassure myself.
Oh no. Oh crap.
I looked frantically at the sky.
The moon was beginning to show.
Oh. CRAP.
I ran. I ran with all I had and I didn't stop. I kept running. I could hear people calling me, so I followed the voices. I turned a corner and skidded to a stop.
The Doors!
I could see five shapes of people running towards the Wall from inside the Glade. Mari, Minho, Thomas, Rhys, and– I gasped– Newt.
I flung myself frantically at the escape, when all of a sudden something huge slapped me aside. I screamed, slamming into the ground and groaning. Above me, was a Griever.
I let out a strangled cry, whipping out my knife. I slashed the beast across the leg, and it screeched. I got up and ran to the Glade. I heard the others yelling at me to run faster, as the Doors started to close…
The Griever sliced a claw down the back of my leg just before I jumped through the Doors, and they closed.
Newt caught me before I could fall onto the ground, hauling me up in his arms. I trembled, pain consuming me as my leg throbbed and I sank my nails into Newt’s shoulders.
“What…” he breathed, “were you THINKING!?”
I flinched away, but he didn’t let me pull back.
“YOU BLOODY COULD’VE BEEN KILLED, GEARS!” Newt roared, shaking me. I cried out at the fury in his eyes.
“Newt–” Minho gasped.

"Oh my God-" I screamed, lunging forward to Gears with tears running down my cheeks. This was a heavy moment, a moment we all dreaded. All of us, standing here, had seen a griever.
And many of the boys had just seen me cry for the first time. I cried out, holding Gears hand as the Med Jacks carried her away.

((I LOVE IT SMMMM))

Pain engulfed me, and I was barely conscious as I was lowered onto a cot, blood turning the sheets soggy.
The worst pain was in my heart though, seeing Newt so mad.
Tears slipped down my cheeks.
Then my eyes opened and I jerked upright, screaming as the Med Jacks poured a sanitizer onto my leg.
It burned worse than fire, and I writhed, desperately trying to kick at the bottle in a Med Jacks' hand.

((TYYYYY))

I winced at the sight of Gears in misery and I held her hand to my chin, praying for- whatever that could help. "You're okay, Gears, you're okay." I repeated over and over. I couldn't be left with no one. Gears was practically my sister.

((YW AND I WAS THINKING HEHEE IF WE COULD ADD TERESA SO WHEN SHE BETRAYS, THEN WE BOTH LUNGE AT HER AND OUR 'boyfriends' STOP US EHEHEHEH
ALSO I MAY NOT REPLY I GTG SOMEWHERE <3))

((KK ILL DO MINE AND REPLY WHENEVER YOU CAN. OO YES MAYBE WHEN WE GET THERE WE COULD JUST MAKE TERESA APPEAR. So we don't need to put up with her that long lmao))

"NO!" I screamed back, delirious from pain. I lunged for the bottle, but suddenly Newt pushed past Mari and grabbed my shoulders, slamming me against the cot.
"Stay. Down." His voice was a pure growl.
I flinched away, beginning to sob. Why? Why was he so mad? I didn't die. I didn't DIE!
His hands on my shoulders were rough, and I groaned a little, shooting Mari a look of fear.

((KK..."

((YASSS GOOD IDEAAAA))

He's just worried. I mouthed, but even I was shocked. As Gears screamed some more from the pain and the sanitizer, I almost fell limp at the sight of blood. I bumped into someone's hard chest and I nearly tripped over their ankles. I turned around, expecting Minho for that hard chest but I saw Rhys instead. "I'm fine." I muttered, my cheeks pink.
"Stop lying." Rhys wrapped a protective arm around my shoulders and I relaxed slightly.

((YOU'RE BACKKK))

((I MISSED YOUUUUUU))

I froze, gasping and looking past Newt to see Rhys holding Mari at his side. If I wasn't so in pain I would've winked at her and smirked, but now I only felt like screeching.
I wrestled Newt on the cot, trying to slap his hands away, but he held tighter.
"MARI, GET. HIM. AWAY. FROM. ME!!" I screamed at her.

((HEHE YESS))

Immediately, I was confused and so was Newt as his eyes widened. Obviously, I was the only one who would understand, so I coaxed Newt to come back when she was feeling better. He slowly nodded and then left. Rhys watched with green eyes from the corner, silently standing there.
"Are you okay?" I gripped Gear's hand.

My chin trembled. "Why?" I whispered."Whywhywhywhy was I so stupid? I heard something. I felt it. Something out in the Maze."
I started crying. "Newt hates me. He hates me now. Heck, I hate me."

((AHHH I MISSED YOU SMMMMMM. ACTUALLY CAN YOU GIVE ME FIVE MINS TO QUICKLY VACUUM? OR WILL YOU BE GONE BY THEN))

((NOOO GO VACCUUUUMMM DWWW IM HERE))

((WHEW OK BRB REALLY FAST)))

"You're okay.." I said softly. "You're okay." I gripped her hand, unwilling to let go. One of the med Jacks came over and put a hand on my shoulder.
"Gears needs to rest, can you talk to her tomorrow morning?"
I looked back at Gears with a question in my eyes. "Okay."

((BAAAACK EXACTLY FIVE MINS AHAAHA))
