enemies to lovers (y/n and newt) book one.

chapter twenty: explanations

"Excuse me?" Gally said, standing in the doorway along with Alby, "Did you just say you worked for wckd? The shanks that put us here?" Y/n gasped when she heard him, they hadn't been very loud coming in, "No, I said I think I did. When I was passed out, I-" she contemplated whether or not to tell them, "I- saw things. Before you bloody interupt me Gally, let me explain." "No. No, she's going in the pit." Newt stood up and stomped over to Gally, "No Gally! She's not, if you even take a bloody step towards her I swear to god I'll repeat exactly the same thing I did to you last time." Newt said very angrily. Y/n could see his nose was out of place, almost as if had been broken. She presumed Newt had something to do with that which made her laugh slightly. "Something funny little miss traitor?" Gally spat as Newt shoved him back, "Shut up, you stupid shank!" he hollered into his face as Alby pulled Gally away.

Alby then said, "Newt, bring her to the Council Hall, it's obvious we have alot to discuss." Newt gave Gally one last angry glare and walked over to Y/n. Alby left and Y/n said, "How long was I out? And who the hell is Zart?" Newt had a sorrow look on his face, "Y/n, you've been out a month. Zart is the new Greenie, he came up a few days ago." Y/n was shocked, it barely felt like a day she was out for, nevermind a month! "A-a month?" she said quietly, still is shock. "Yeah, but it's fine. Okay Love? You're safe now. But c'mon, since we're Second in Command we have a meeting to attend to." he said with a smirk. She stood up, and was still not functioning fully so her legs weren't strong enough to hold her up, "Woah- steady there." Newt said with a laugh, "Do you need me to carry you?" Y/n looked up to Newt and said with a laugh," I can do i-" when suddenly Newt pulled her off the bed and carried her bridal style out of the Med-Hut, "Newt I said I was fine." she said rolling her eyes, "Well you obviously weren't Love. I don't blame you, you've been unconscious for a damn month, I expect nothing less from you." he laughed.

They eventually reached the Council Hall, Gally, Minho, Ben, Alby, Clint and Zart were already there. Newt set her down and helped her walk to her seat beside Newts' up at the front, "So, Y/n I'm glad you're back. But you know what we have to talk about. Tell us everything you saw and heard." She looked at the several pairs of beady eyes staring at her and she started to get nervous and didn't know what to say. Newt could tell and set his hand on hers, this calmed her down slightly. "Well, most of the time it was like I was staring into this black void, I couldn't see anything or hear anything, at all. Then this image appeared, it was me sitting at a desk, watching the Glade. On cameras or something, I don't know exactly what it was, then this woman came over and talked to me for a little while. There was also a man, he looked horrible. He was just looking me up and down as I left the room. Then everything went dark as I left the room and over and over again I heard the same words 'Wicked is good' for what felt like hours." Gally glared at her and said, "Well? Is that all?" She sighed and said, "No."

"I was back in that dark void once again, hearing nothing, seeing nothing. Until more images just popped up, it was like I was there, but I wasn't. I couldn't control what I did. I was sitting, cuffed to a table with another boy. Then two men grabbed me and dragged me down the corridor, the person I was in struggled and tried to get out but it was no use against those guards." Newt looked at her with a sorry expression, he knew these must be memories and felt very bad for the poor girl. She continued, "All I could hear was screaming, coming from my own mouth and the boys'. He was trying to tell them not to do it, they called it The Swipe. I still have no idea what it means, but I was brought into this white room, and strapped to this weird table. There was no point in even trying to get out, there was nothing I could do. There was a tray beside me with a green syringe, a Dr walked up to me and said one thing, 'Wicked is good' and then everything went black, and here I am."

Everyone was speechless, unsure of what to say. "I'm sorry Love," Newt said, "You shouldn't have had to go through that." "I think, they were memories. I remember them so vividly now. I just have no idea what the syringe was or what the bloody 'Swipe' is." Gally then spoke up, "So you worked for 'em didn't you? Tell the truth. I know you know." "Gally, I don't know honestly!" Gally wailed, "God! She's obviously a shucking traitor! She knows exactly who she is and I can tell she's lying through her teeth!" Alby stood up and said, "Right Gally, I've had enough of your god damn klunk. The pit for three days, with no company." Alby grabbed Gally's arm and pulled him out of the Council Hall, he didn't fight back. He simply followed him but glared at Y/n as he left. She had tears in her eyes, the shouting and the questions were all too much for her. "Love, you're okay. C'mon let's go and get some air okay?" Newt said softly, she nodded and he helped her stand up and they slowly walked outside.
