I ran off to my own hut and closed the door behind me. I sat down on my bed, my knees up to my chest and my hands covering my eyes. I could still feel Adam's hands on me and the only thing I could do was cry. I felt horrible, and didn't know what to do. If Adam had the chance, he would do it again, but I wasn't gonna let that happen. I had to tell someone.

After a while my sobs started to get quieter and I took a few deep breaths. When I opened my eyes again I noticed the wrist where Adam held me, it was completely blue.

It took me another few minutes to completely calm down. I breathed in and out, and then got up from my bed. I wiped the tears away from my cheeks and rubbed my eyes. I straightened my green shorts and black top a little. Then I got out of my hut.

I walked over to all the picnic tables and to my surprise I saw Newt and Gally sitting at the same table, talking to each other. I knew that the two boys didn't like each other very much, so why were they talking? They both had a very serious look on their faces and they were really close to each other, it looked like the conversation was private.

I walked over to them and Gally noticed me. He gave Newt a glance and then turned to me again.

I sat down next to Newt and in front of Gally. I was thinking about how I was going to tell them. 'I need to tell you something.' I started.

The two boys looked at me.

'Go on.' Gally said, but he didn't sound impatient.

'I, uhm- I.' I didn't know how to tell them.

'It's alright, take your time.' Newt had noticed my stress.

No one else was around, it was just me, Newt and Gally, what gave me a more comfortable feeling. These two were probably the ones in the whole Glade I liked and trusted the most, plus Minho and the two Med-jacks.

'I don't know- I don't know how to say it.'

'Nora, it's alright. You can talk to us.' Gally saw that I was upset about something.

'He touched me.' I said really quietly as I looked down.

'I'm so sorry, love. But I can't hear you.' Newt said.

Suddenly Gally moved my hand and looked at my wrist. 'What happened?' He asked as he looked at the blue bruise.

'He touched me.' I said a little louder this time.

'Can you tell us what happened?' Newt asked with a soft voice.

'He said he- he said he got a cut. When I wanted to treat it, he moved closer to- to me.' I felt tears form in my eyes. 'And he started touching me.' I said the last few words really quietly.

Tears streamed down my face.

'Who?' Gally asked with an stern voice.

Meanwhile Newt laid his hands on my shaky ones.

'Who did it?' Gally asked again.

Suddenly I saw Adam walking trough the Glade behind Gally. I moved closer to Newt and fear washed over my body.

Gally turned around and looked at Adam. 'Was it him?' He asked in a serious tone.

The only thing I could do was nod. Gally abruptly got up, his eyes full of fire. He ran over to Adam and harshly pushed him onto the ground. Gally jumped on top of him and started punching.

I couldn't do anything else, but cry. Tears streamed down my face.

'It's okay, it's okay.' Newt pulled me into a hug and I cried in his shoulder. Newt gently rubbed my back in order to calm me down.

After a while I let go off Newt when I started hearing screams. Newt gave me a small smile, but I saw the anger in his eyes.

I looked at the place where the screams were coming from. Gally was still on top of Adam, who almost looked lifeless, while Alby and Frypan tried to pull Gally away.

'Gally! Stop!' They yelled. Before Gally could throw out another punch Alby pushed him off Adam.

'Gally! Tell us what happened!' Alby ordered.

'It's not for me to say that.' Gally got up from the ground and walked over to me and Newt again.  Alby and Frypan bend down in front of Adam's face which was covered in blood.

'If he ever does it again I will-.' Gally started.

'He won't do it again.' Newt interrupted him. 'I'll make sure of that. It's not just for me to decide, but if I could I would get him banished.' More anger raised in Newt's eyes.

'Are you okay, love?' Newt asked after a few seconds. I had laid my head down on his shoulder.

'Better than before.' I gave them a weak smile.

Newt's POV

I had just finished dinner when out of no where Gally sat down in front of me.

'Something's off with Nora.' He said sternly.

Somehow we both cared about her really much, even though we met her a few days ago.

'What do you mean?' I asked.

'She didn't appear at dinner yesterday and today at lunch me and Mike had to call her at least three times before she reacted. She was in really deep thoughts.' Gally frowned.

'Why are you telling me this?' I asked. 'Do you like her?'

'Not in that way, Newt.' Gally sighed. 'I don't care if you do, but that's not what this is about right now, okay?'

I nodded. 'What do you think is wrong? She also wasn't at dinner today, or I just didn't see her.'

'I saw her, but you're right. She didn't get any dinner. I only saw her running out of the
med-hut, she looked upset.'

Gally looked at something behind me and gave me a quick glance. Nora sat down next to me. Her eyes were red and puffy, she had cried.

She seemed to hesitate for a moment. 'I need to tell you something.' She started.

I gave Gally a glance before looking at Nora again.

'Go on.' Gally said, but he didn't sound impatient.

'I, uhm- I.' She looked stressed. Her hands were shaky and she was biting her lip. The lip biting thing is something I had noticed about her, she did it whenever she was thinking or upset.

'It's alright, take your time.' I said.

'I don't know- I don't know how to say it.' She started stuttering and tears formed in her eyes.

'Nora, it's alright. You can talk to us.' Gally saw her being upset too.

Nora mumbled something so quiet, that I couldn't hear it. 'I'm so sorry, love. But I can't hear you.'

Suddenly Gally moved Nora's hand and looked at her wrist. 'What happened?' He asked as he looked at it. I saw a blue bruise on her wrist and the only think I could do was sit there in shock.

'He touched me.' She said a little louder this time.

What? Who?!

I wanted to ask so many questions. 'Can you tell us what happened?' I finally said.

'He said he- he said he got a cut. When I wanted to treat it, he moved closer to- to me.' More tears formed in her eyes. 'And he started touching me.' She said the last few words really quietly.

Tears streamed down her face and I felt anger rise up in my chest.

'Who?' Gally asked with a stern voice.

I noticed her hands which were still shaking and I laid mine on top of them, in order to stop the shaking.

'Who did it?' Gally asked again.

Nora looked at someone behind Gally. Fear washed over her face and she got closer to me. It was Adam who she was looking at.

Gally turned around and looked at Adam. 'Was it him?' He asked in a serious tone.

Nora gave him a small nod. Gally abruptly got up, his eyes full of fire. He ran over to Adam and harshly pushed him onto the ground. Gally jumped on top of him and started punching.

I wanted to do the same as Gally. I wanted to attack Adam, but Nora didn't look alright. Tears fell down her cheeks and they didn't stop.

'It's okay, it's okay.' A little hesitated I pulled her into a hug.

After a while her sobs started to turn quieter and her shoulders were less shaky.
