༺CHAPTER SIX༻
_________________________
Ivy -
I slowly walk back to the huts, leaving Gally. Both of us still in shock.
I don't understand where that random fit of rage came from. When I apologised, he could tell that wasn't my usual self. He could tell it scared me as much as it scared him.
I get closer to the huts, when I'm met by Newt. I sigh. "Hey, Newt." I say while taking a seat on a branch next to Chuck, where Zart is planting new crops. Newt walks over to the crops and starts digging up the dirt as well.
"You alright, Ivy? You seem a bit..." he starts. I look at him in confusion. "How do you know my name?" I ask, wondering how he knows, did he remember from before the maze? Gally couldn't have told him already. Did he hear our conversation? He can't have, we were all the way over by the lake.
How did he know?
Then it hit me. I look at Chuck next to me. Sitting as still as a statue with his chubby cheeks turning bright red.
He's not moving an inch, looking straight forward, making sure not to look at me at all.
"Chuck... did you tell everyone?" I ask him, a smirk forming on my face. He lets out of big breath he didn't even know he was holding, and turns to look at me.
"I'm sorry! I can't keep a secret." He says, very apologetic. I laugh. "Apparently not a promise either." I say, referring to last night when I told him to promise that he wouldn't tell anyone my name.
He returns my laugh with a nervous smile.
I look back at newt and Zart. I know I will have to start trying out all the jobs soon, why not start now?
I stand up and grab one of the tools by the branch chuck and I are sitting on.
I walk over to the crops. Newt and Zart pause and look up to start watching me. They watch me put on one of the gloves for the track-hoes—the glove is really big compared to my hands, they obviously weren't meant for girls. I bring the shovel over to where Newt was previously working, and start digging up with him.
"Yeah Ivy!" Zart says, enthusiastic that I actually want to work.
"Hey, Thomas." I hear newt say. I look up to see Thomas taking a seat where I was previously sitting on the branch, next the Chuck.
"Hey guys." He says.
Newt looks around the crops to see if there's anything for Thomas to do, so he can try out this job as well.
His eyes fall on a weaved basket. He walks over, picks it up, and throws it in Thomas's directions. "Go make yourself useful and fetch us some fertiliser in the forest." Newt orders.
Thomas catches the basket, sighs, and picks up a shovel. Walking into the woods, his foot catches on a little bit of vine, and he stumbles over a little bit. It manages to make me giggle.
We watch him walk off into the woods, frustrated at the fact he has to do the dirty work. He barely got to sit down for 5 minutes.
Zart, Newt and I go back to working on planting all the crops.
"It's weird that there was 2 of you in the box." Newt states. I look at him in confusion. "What? Did all of you come up by yourself or something?" I half joke, half question.
"Yeah." He tells me. "Oh."
"Not a single one of us came up with anyone else. Especially not with a girl, if you can't tell." He laughs a little.
