just the two of us (newt x reader)

newt

i woke. my nap wasn't long enough despite it being longer than i had wished but the excitement of everything that had happened in the past 24 hours was too much to be able to sleep.
newt. shit! i was meant to meet him probably 40 minutes ago. i was up and sprinted towards the bridge in the woods and to my surprise, newt was still stood there waiting. i couldn't help but laugh at him. i'd left him waiting yet he was still persistent.
"sorry, overslept"
"don't worry love, i thought as much, i only got here 20 minutes ago, figured you'd be late anyways"
"wow, how valiant of you to wait that long" i couldn't help but chuckle at the situation
"so what is it you wanted to talk about y/n, if it's about being a runner, me and alby decided that..."
"i love you" i couldn't help but blurt it out and interrupt his trail of thoughts but then, wait, him and alby decided what...
"wait what was that about me being a runner"
"sorry, what did you just say" his face wore an expression of utter confusion due to the three words that just slipped my mouth
both of us were as confused as ever
"i said i love you, but what did you and alby decide"
"yes, you can be a runner, but you what"
"I CAN BE A RUNNER" but heart exploded and my mind blanked at the fact i just told newt i loved him TWICE
"you love me?"
shit
"i mean i've said it twice now, want me to say it again?" i tried to sound as calm as possibly and like i hadn't just blurted out the three most special words to a person
"y/n"
"newt"
"i-
"well, stop the awkwardness either tell me you don't love me or come over here and show me that you do"

with that newt was on his feet, no longer leaning against the small bridge that merely held us above the water below, only about foot deep, but still, it was the thought that counts.

now face to face i could feel his warm breath against my neck, i was frozen.
i couldn't take it anymore
then i felt his cold finger graze up side, causing me to jutter and laugh at myself. his hands reached my hips and he rested them against my curves. slowly leaving toward me, our lips collided.

it felt... strange. not in a bad way, but more meaningful than the first time we kissed, like between was no longer a dare but love.
