It had been one of those nights again. One of those nights where Theodor woke up sweating and frightened because he had one of his dreams/flashbacks. This time it was the one about his sister, or so he thinks that’s who the girl is and he only says that because sometimes it's like looking into a mirror plus she has identical blue eyes as his. He woke up right when he began to feel and hear the panic in his sister's voice when they dragged her out the room kicking and screaming for him. Theo sat up in his hammock, took a couple of deep breaths and ran his fingers through his sweaty hair making it stick up a little in certain places. He tried being as quiet as he could because it was the middle of the night, maybe 2 or 3 in the morning and he didn't want to be that one annoying guy who woke up half the gladers to use the bathroom or something.
The night was hot and sticky so instead of going for a walk to calm his nerves Theo pulled his shirt over his head and laid back down. He let his eyes travel around the camp a little, what he could see form where he was laying anyway. His eyes focused in and out on a flame that belong to one of the torches that were surrounding the camp. Just watching the flame was enough to calm his nerves enough for him to begin counting the night stars so he could fall asleep again. Just then though there was a loud howl from the maze that made his eyes shoot open. He heard a small whimper from some gladers who obviously weren’t asleep and fearful of the noises and he felt kind of bad but he only looked towards the walls. Stared for a bit while thinking about getting out one day until he felt his eyes slowly shut again and be taken over by sleep.
Footsteps could be heard in the distance and that's what got Theo to finally open his eyes. They were greeted by the warm rays of the morning sun which caused him to squint for a second as his eyes adjusted. He gave them a rub before opening them fully. There was a awful quiet moment that followed the footsteps before they began again and curiously Theo propped himself up onto his elbows just in time to see the back of Lot's and Mia's head. Apparently he had a few others with him and they were heading towards the forest. He watched until the stirring from others waking up or turning over in their hammocks snapped him out of that little moment where you sometimes space out in the morning.
Theo's mind briefly wondered what that was all about before he swung his legs from his hammock and stood up fully, stretching out his limbs. Although the morning was still hot something about the sun on his bare chest made him feel warm and more awake if that made any sense. By the time Theo had did his little morning routine where he woke up, used the bathroom and splashed some water in his face and through his hair Lot was back with the little group he had assembled and others were either awake and about or just waking up. He walked back to his hammock while watching what just happened between Lot and Xavier. What were they arguing about? He wondered as his hand reached down for his canteen and he took a couple of sips from it.
That's when Lot called for all the keepers and this peaked Theodor's curiosity even more. He wanted to go and see what all this commotion was about but when he grabbed his shirt he heard his nickname being called out though there were other greenies besides him so he wasn't so sure until he turned around, shirt in hand. His eyes met a runner by the name of Maeve. Unusual and pretty he thought the name was as he walked up to her with his head and left arm already in the shirt. "Looking for me?" He asked as he slipped the rest of his shirt on and rolled up the already short sleeves until they were a neat fold on each side. Bright blue eyes met brown ones as he opened his mouth again to speak. "Know what's up with Lot and calling all the keepers?"
