The girl from the scorch

Newt's POV

"Shuck"

Just like that, Y/n passes out. I quickly catch her before her head could hit the floor and gently lay her down next to me. How could I be this stupid, how did I not notice the blood on the scarf quicker, maybe I could have done something.

"What's wrong with her?" I hear a small voice next to me say. Its only now that I remember I was walking with Mollie by my side. Looking at her face I can see that she is obviously afraid, honestly I don't blame her, so am I.

"She's okay. She's gonna be just fine. She's just a bit tired but she will be all better soon." I tell Mollie, trying to sound as convincing as possible. Y/n's lost a lot of blood and if she keeps loosing it as fast as she is now, she wont make it.

Just like that, everyone is soon gathered round me as I slowly unwrap the bandage from Y/n's arm, coating my hands in blood as I go. The second it is off I quickly apply pressure to her arm and look for something to bandage it up with again.

"Here use this." I hear as Frypan hands me a slightly dirty cloth from his backpack. I quickly note that Minho has taken Mollie slightly away from all the commotion to distract her from the blood and possibility of something going horribly wrong, which I'm just hoping doesn't happen. Without a second thought I start wrapping Y/n arm as tightly as I can to prevent the bleeding from getting worse, and tie it off when I'm done.

"What do we do now?" Minho asks, as Mollie runs back up to Y/n, shaking her arm in a desperate attempt to wake her up.

"We need to go. At least away from WICKED" Jorge says, "someone's gonna have to carry her till she wakes up"

"I'll do it" I say, possibly too fast to be normal

"No Newt, your leg, just let me carry her and you take care of the kid" Minho says. Right, my leg. Bloody things always causing issues, but I know he's right.

With that, Minho picks up Y/n and I grab Mollie's hand as we follow after Jorge. He leads us to an old, rusted door, which he forces open and rushes us inside, desperate to escape our followers.

"Quickly, if we can make it down a few roads, we can go to one of the storage houses and stock up on food, just don't be seen" and with that Jorge starts to take off down the road, shortly followed by everyone else.

I look down at Mollie to see her staring up at me, looking like she is about to cry. I take this as a sign and pick her up, carrying her on my hip, and follow behind everyone else at a slight jog.

As we approach the building, we are all then ushered inside by Jorge, again, as he tells us where to find torches and food. I make my way over to Minho who is setting Y/n on the floor, leaned up against some crates.

"How's she doing?"

"She seems fine still, just needs to wake up" Minho tells me. I sigh in relief and put Mollie down who instantly runs up to Y/n and sits next to her.

"You really seem to like her, don't you?" Minho suddenly asks.

"What! No. I don't even know her.... we just met" I quickly retaliate

"Ok ok geeze... just stay here and watch her I'll pack you a bag"

"Are you sur-" I didn't even Finnish my sentence before her interrupts me.

"Yes now just watch her. Jorge doesn't seem to care" he jokes, taking a look over to Jorge who appears to be looking through boxes of cans.

"Is she okay hermano?" He suddenly yells over, almost as if he heard us talking.

"Yeah she's fine. I'll stay with her" I yell back.

"Ok hermano, if anything happens to her I'll kill you first" he laughs, although I'm pretty sure he is dead serious. I laugh back and sit down next to Y/n as I wait for something to happen. Mollie eventually finds her way onto my lap which I don't mind and falls asleep pretty quickly whilst I'm left to my own thoughts.

Not long later, I hear a groan next to me and Y/n's eyes start to flutter open as she regains consciousness.

"Well hey there shank"

I'm so sorry I haven't written in to long. I had so much school work and tests to revise for and I have even more when I come back but hopefully I will be posting more parts soon.
I've also started a new story based in the glade as I have also wanted to write one in the maze too so please go read that. I'll hopefully be updating both stories regularly but if I don't I apologise in advance I'll probably be doing schoolwork.
