THE ERROR (Newt Fanfiction)

Kk: Chapter 10

UUUGHHHHH This is frustrating. IDK y.... 

Arguments and laughter burst out among the Keepers, some standing up, though Newt keeping his position. Kayla sits there, listening to them treat her this way.

"Whoa, whoa, British boy, a girl as a runner?"

"PPfhh, I'd like to see her even run a mile."

"Aww, Newties got a cruuushh."

"Shut it, slinthead!"

"Her ankles broken."

"Yeah, what about her ankle."

"It's gonna leave a limp or something I swear."

"The shuck-face is STILL A GIRL, you shanks!"

"Give her to the med-jacs or like Frypan or something... that's what girls do.. right?"

"ENOUGH!" Alby's voice rings above the others and everyone quites down immediately. 

"Newt, listen, she does have that ankle and she-"

"I think she can do it! If it doesn't hurt her bad enough, let her bloody do it!" His face is in his hands, fingers running through his blonde hair as he shouts. He's seated differently now, leaning forward, elbows on his thighs. 

Alby looks to Minho. "You think she can?"

"I don't know, man. Her ankle looks pretty messed up."

"We'll give her to you tomorrow and see what she can do." Alby sighs and turns to Kayla.

"Anything you want to say?"

Kayla clears her throat and calmly gets up. She slowly brushes off her pants and turns to look at all of the now standing boys, all except Newt. "Yes, surprisingly, I do."

Kayla smiles and then it fades quickly. 

"First of all, GALLY, just because I'm a shuckin' girl doesn't mean I can't do all the things you guys can do! Also, do I get ANY say in this??? Yeah, I wanna be a runner! Yeah, my ankle is messed up! Will it leave a limp? I don't know!!! But all the same, if I want to do something, I can do it! I'm not letting this stupid injury hold me back from an amazing opportunity! What I'm trying to say is, stop being so stuck-up, let me do what I want, AND SHUT YOUR SHUCKIN' MOUTHS!"

She shouts the last part and stomps her good foot, causing all of the boys to stare. Newt is grinning widely and Gally has a glare as angry as a wolf in his eyes. Alby just stares, his facial expression mixed with anger, shock, and annoyance. 

"Meeting's over." Alby avoids Kayla's gaze and walks out, everyone following.

The only Glader left is Newt, who is still smiling and standing up slowly. He walks over to her and lightly shoves her in the shoulder.

"Bloody hell, Kayla. No one's ever talked to those shanks like that."

Kayla smiles, brushing the hair out of her face. "Obviously someone should."

Newt laughs and walks outside, Kayla follows. "Hey, wanna get some dinner?"

Kayla nods. "Kk."

Newt turns around and looks at her. "Kk? That's new."

She smirks. "I don't even know I just thought of that."

"Well, congratulations, that's your new name in my brain."

Kayla laughs, limping up to walk side by side with Newt and he slows down to match her pace. 

She gets many looks from the Gladers as they get up to the kitchen, some sending wolf whistles, others glaring at her, most just shocked. 

Newt grabs two plates of some kind of spaghetti and they sit down at a table alone. Kayla sets herself down next to him, and the two eat in silence.

It's not awkward, not embarrassing... but comfortable. For the first time since arriving to the Glade, Kayla felt happy. 

Hope you liked the ending!!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 love you all!!!!
