Forever // newt// the maze runner fanfiction

chapter 4

I sat up gasping. My eyes fluttered open moon light coming through the door. My breaths came in short gasps as I remember my dream. Was it a dream? Or a memory? Had I remembered something? I have to tell newt.

newt.

He was there. He had known me before! I had to find him.

"Hey are you okay?" the familiar British accent came from next to me. he sounded exhausted.

"Why are you in here?" I asked as he straightened and stretched out from his slumped position on the chair beside my bed.

"You were screaming and thrashing around in here, woke the whole glade up. so i asked alby to let me in to help you." he said as he looked down at his feet. wait did.. did he just blush. Why is he blushing?

"What happened what did I say?" I asked oh this can't be good.

"You were kind of calling my name and telling me not to leave what happened?" Oh gosh. i was screaming his name this is embarrassing.

“oh um.. it was… just… I saw um in my dream um and we were kind of with the um creators.” I watched as his face showed all his emotions as if he was looking for one but couldn’t decide.

“Are you sure it was a dream?” he asked looking down at his feet.

"No" I mumbled looking down as well. I know I should explain but I couldn't bring myself to newt was the only one I could trust and now I have to tell him that we were with the creators. Who else is going to trust me?

a sob escapes my mouth. I hadn't even noticed I was crying. But when I touched my cheeks my hand came back soaking.

"Hey, hey don’t cry it’s okay, I’m here Ada." newt climbed on the makeshift bed wrapping me into a hug, just like the dream. I buried my head into his neck loving the way our bodies fit together. i held onto newt like he was the only thing keeping me sane. his t-shirt was soaked with my tears but he didn't seem to care. We stayed there lying on the bed wrapped in each other’s arms my body still shaken from the screaming and the crying.

Newt was sat stroking my hair as his even breathing lulled me to sleep. I was grateful for his body temperature as I noticed how cold the night had become. it was still only early morning so we had a couple more hours till we had to get up. so i let the blanket of sleep wash over me.

"Awww would you look at that. so cute"

"If only we could take a photo"

i knew one of those voices. Chuck. Why can I hear.

My eyes shoot open. Sure enough chuck is stood over the bed with a smug smile plastered on his face.

“Suck she’s awake.” He turns and I see an Asian boy stood behind chuck he must have been the other voice. He stood hands on hips a smirk playing on his lips as he looked down at me.

“Why are you looking at me?” I ask in confusion. Why are they smiling like that?

A moan escapes from next to me. That’s when I realise. Newt is next to me. Shoot they saw us cuddling. Shoot, shoot, shoot.

“Look at them so adorable.”

“Already sleeping together.” Newt wakes up then and groggily looks around he looks at me and smiles and I look at the boys going bright red. Newt turns and looks then.

“What are you shanks doing here?” he asks. Gosh his morning voice. They smile knowingly and just laugh.

“Shut up slint head” newt says angrily.

“We just came to wake sleeping beauty and found prince charming at the same time.” Chuck said giggling.

I was just staring mouth open cheeks getting redder and redder every second.

“Any way get up Alby want another gathering.” The Asian boy says looking at newt. Another gathering? How many do they need?

“Erh what’s this one about?” newt asks looking exhausted.

“I don’t know.” The Asian boy looks fed up and is about to climb out when he turns around “aren’t you going to introduce me to your girlfriend?” he asks newt.

Wait, wait, wait did he just say girlfriend.

“Shut up. Ada this is Minho, Minho Ada” he says then climbs of the bed and walks away.” I’ll see you after the gathering Ada” he says before slipping out with Minho behind him.
