{9} Glade Gift: part one

Y/N's POV
The  sun's  blistering  heat  pounded  against  Y/N's back as she worked hunched over in the Gardens. She enjoyed work as a Track Hoe; she found the manual labour rewarding, enjoyed being around nature and most of all- she got to spend all day every day with her 'someone'...

Newt: the Second In Command and more importantly to Y/N, her boyfriend. Newt was the first person who greeted Y/N when she came out of the Box exactly one month after him, and they'd been the closest friends since. Two years on and they were each others home, their rock and their person.

As she straightened up to wipe the sweat off her forehead, (sparing a quick smile to Newt as she did so), Y/N caught sight of something rather unusual: Minho was back early.
And he wasn't alone.

As she shouted to Newt to come with her and began running over to the struggling Minho,  Y/N got a better image of who he was carrying.

A small girl, no older than 7, was clutched in Minho's arms. Her dirty blonde hair was braided back, and the clothes she wore were unusually clean for somewhere as filthy as the Maze. The girl looked mostly unharmed other than a few cuts and bruises, yet she was deeply asleep.

"Minho...what? How...?" Newt struggled for words before recollecting his thoughts and shakily presuming role as Second In Command, "Come on. We'll get you both to the Medjack Hut, then you can explain all this from the start."

The surrounding group of boys who had gathered at the spectacle slowly began to disperse, whilst an exhausted Minho and confused Newt took the mystery girl to the Medjacks.
As they did so, Y/N was finding Alby to inform him of the situation, per Newt's request.

~time skip~

"Hi bunny, my name is Y/N; can you tell me yours?"

A pair of youthful brown orbs gazed up at Y/N in fear, eyes watering from the overwhelming confusion.
"N-no...no" she shakily said, shaking her head from side to side.

"That's okay sweetie, we all took a while to remember ours. Have the big tall boys been scaring you?" Y/N asked, trying to symbolise a friendly figure to her. She knew that the poor kid must have been terrified.
After all, until Y/N's arrival after patching Minho up, the poor girl had been all alone after waking up amongst a crowd of towering boys.
Minho had found her unconscious in the middle of the Maze and had carried her all the way back.

Cautiously nodding her head in response, the little girl shuffled closer to Y/N. Slipping her arms around Y/N's waist in a hug, the little girl was slowly melting Y/N's heart.
Lifting her up through the air and protectively into her arms, Y/N spoke to her.
"That's okay, Bunny. You have nothing to worry about; those boys are just silly idiots. You stick with me and I'll keep you safe, okay?"

Gladly smiling in acceptance, the shy girl let Y/N take her out of the Medjack Hut and into the Glade.
Before she left with her, Y/N sweetly smiled to Newt in goodbye.

Newt's POV
Newt found it to be the cutest thing her had ever seen. When Y/N started whispering comfortingly to the little girl, Newt felt his heart flutter as a small smile grew on his face. The sight of his girlfriend holding the little girl in her arms almost overloaded his heart with cuteness.

"Newt?" Minho called out, breaking him from his daze, "Hey buddy, you with us?"

"Yeah... yeah. What is it?"

"Good that, thought we'd lost you there. Come on, we gotta start building a bonfire. The girl may not have come out of the Box, but she's still our new Greenie... just a lot younger I guess."

Nodding his head, Newt replied, "Yeah, yeah. Not like the poor thing remembers anything. Let's go."

Y/N's POV
Once Bunny had gotten comfortable with Y/N, she had been running circles around the teen all day. Even hours later, in the warm glow of the bonfire, Y/N was sitting exhausted as her little Bunny whizzed around her.
After Y/N had got the little girl cleaned up and braided her hair again, the boys became the loving brotherly figures that Y/N suspected they'd become.
They showered her with compliments about her hair, offered dozens of piggy backs and smuggled food, until she became comfortable with them, so now they were sitting just as exhausted as Y/N. Except for one:
Newt.

That boy was still somehow awake, with Bunny babbling away to him and him nodding along to the nonsense with a smile.
An almost deliriously tired Y/N's soul was full of love and happiness; for the first time in 2 years, she was content.

As the young couple made eye contact through the fiery haze, small smiles of love passed between them.
This little girl had made their bond even stronger.
She was their Glade Gift.
Their little Bunny.

Updated A/N
So I've discovered that an account on Wattpad has stolen this Imagine and the part two for it, and has posted it as their own, even having the audacity to vote for some of my Imagines before stealing them.
I will NOT tolerate people stealing my works; I put all my effort into writing these to the best of my abilities, and to see people so selfishly and heartlessly claim it as their own is downright infuriating.
I have messaged this person and am already taking action, however if anyone who reads this finds other repostings of my work, PLEASE let me know.
I do not take this lightly, as no one should.
If the person who stole it sees this, I sincerely hope you never, ever do this to anyone else again, and think about the consequences of your actions.
