Running the maze everyday was tiring. Actually, it was exhausting. Most days after returning to the glade you wanted nothing more than to collapse in a heap and sleep. But a runner’s job is never done. First, you gotta do your map, then get it signed off by Minho, and lastly, put away your gear, which is hard when all you want is some food and some serious nap time. Then, in the morning, you have to do it all again. You finally began to understand why the runners weren’t that social. They are so shucking tired all the time!
Today was no different. An early morning into the maze trying to find a way out. Minho had trusted you to run your section alone today and after an hour you began to miss his presence. The maze could get so boring and repetitive and soon you found yourself lost.
"Shuck!" You were breathing heavily. "Must have missed a turn back there." Sliding down the nearest wall you pulled out your water bottle. Today is gonna be a long day you thought.
It took you an hour to figure out where you were. By then the day was half over and you decided to head back to the glade. You would arrive before everyone else but you were exhausted and in need of a break.
You ran back into the glade an hour before the doors were due to close. Noticing your arrival, your boyfriend Newt jogged up to you.
"Everything alright, love?" He gathered you into his arms, completely ignoring the fact you were covered in sweat.
"Yeah," you sighed into his shoulder as you hugged him back. "Just tired."
"We can’t have that now. Don’t worry about your map yet, love. Go get yourself cleaned up and meet me in my room in half an hour." He smirked at you before walking off.
You ditched your gear in the map room and headed off for a shower. About half an hour later you walked into Newt’s room in just a towel but almost dropped it in surprise. The room was filled with candles and beautiful smelling flowers. Sitting on the bed was Newt. He beckoned you over to the bed. As you got closer he stood up behind you and wrapped you in his arms. He started trailing kisses down your neck, to your shoulder and back up again. You practically melted in his arms. Sighing with contentment, he led you to the bed.
"Lay down, love. Can’t have you all tired now can we?" His fingers started trailing over the skin on your shoulders and down your back. You obliged him and laid down, facing upwards. "Not quite, love. Roll over will you?" With a confused look you rolled onto your stomach. As soon as you had you felt Newt’s rough hand move over your bare skin and settle on your shoulders. Slowly he began to move his thumbs in little circles, pushing on your sore, tired muscles. You let out a groan of contentment. Newt giggled behind you.
"Now, now, love." You could hear the smirk in his voice. Knowing you were enjoying it, he moved his hands down your back, massaging every muscle. You couldn’t keep the sighs and groans inside. Every time you made a noise you could hear Newt giggle. It was one of your favourite sounds in the whole wide world.
You felt the bed move and then a pressure on your thighs. Newt was straddling you. You felt the blush rise up you cheeks. Newt bent over, while still massaging your back and started kissing your shoulders and neck. Little wisps of kisses trailed from one shoulder to the other and back again. All this was driving you wild. Your stress from the day was melted away with every touch of Newt’s hands and every little kiss.
After what felt like an eternity, Newt finally got off you. You rolled onto your side, your eyes heavily lidded.
"Feeling better now, love?" Newt crawled into the bed next to you.
"Oh much better. Thank you." You placed a hand on Newt’s face and brought it to yours. It was a short but sweet kiss. Wrapping his arms around you, Newt pulled you close. With your head against his chest, listening to his steady heartbeat, you started to drift off. The last thing you heard before sleep took over you was "I love you (y/n)" and you felt a ghosting sensation over your lips.
