life in the Glade was sweet. There were 41 boys and 2 girls. Teresa was dating Thomas, and you were dating Newt. You had been living here for as long as you can remember, being sent around six years old. You and Newt had started dating at 12 years old. You're now 17, and he's 18. You were surrounded by people you loved. Nobody had family, but you loved all your friends. Thomas, Teresa, Newt, Minho, Gally, Alby, Frypan, and Chuck were the big friend group.

everyone was huddled around the fire. It was late at night, Teresa holding Thomas's hand. You leaning on Newt. Chuck was asleep since he was only 12. Alby, Minho, Gally and Frypan sat around the warm fire too.
