Newt's pov

We lay there, all our energy spent, heavy breaths filling the air. We catch our breath, then turn to kiss each other. Mid kiss, I remember where we are and what was happening before all this. I pull away and look at her. For a fleeting second I see her in a coma still, not waking up. My eyes must show what I just saw, because she gives me a weird look and says "What? What's wrong" I shake my head "Nothing." But then I get up, trying to find my clothes, and hers. I find mine and put them on. When I turn around she's sitting in the bed, holding the blanket up to cover herself. She gives me a quizzical look and I know I have to explain. "You just woke up from a coma" I say. "Clint and Jeff - the Med jacks - need to check up on you." She pouts at me and I know exactly how she feels. "I know, I know" I sigh. I find her clothes right next to the bed and lightly toss them at her, making her squeal slightly and drop the blankets. She scrambles to lift them back up, even though there's no one else in the room. "Put them on and I'll get them when you're done." She starts getting dressed when I stop her, giving her a kiss. Then I let her keep going. She gives me a thumbs up when she's done so I shout for the med jacks - who happen to be very close - and they come running towards me. "She's up" I say, elation in my voice and warmth seeping through me as I remember when she woke up. My joy, disbelief and most of all relief. I lead them inside and Y/n is sitting on the edge of the bed she was in when she was asleep. They walk over to her and start to examine her. "Are you sure she just woke up?" Clint asks "Yeah" Is my only response.

Jeff's pov

When we walk into the med hut, and Y/n is sitting on the bed. Her body screams exhaustion, but her eyes look awake and alert. I may not be a certified doctor, but I know her eyes are too alert to have just woken up. Clint asks the question that I'm thinking; "Are you sure she just woke up?" Newt seems to panic for a fraction of a second, but gathers himself quickly. "Yeah" he says. Doubtful is all I think. Clint starts changing the bandage on her head and I go over to her to start examining her to evaluate her state, when I notice the sheets of another bed are rumpled and out of place. Not by much, but being a med jack - and the one who makes the beds - I notice it. I connect the dots and smile to myself. You guys didn't I think. Then I realise Of course they would and I laugh slightly. Clint gives me a questioning look and I just shake my head. I finish examining Y/n and tell them the conclusion I have come to; "She's looking ok, but she needs to stay a few days until we're sure that her head won't start bleeding again and nothing happens" They both sigh and I shrug "Gotta be done" I say. "Ok, thanks guys" Newt says, an obvious dismissal. I look at each of them in turn and nod. Clint grabs his bag and walks out, and I follow close behind.

Y/n's pov

Once they leave I let out a breath I hadn't realised I'd been holding. Newt exhales audibly and shakes his head. I know what he's thinking, I'm thinking the same. He knows, Jeff knows I shake my head and look at Newt. He looks back and comes to sit next to me. He grabs my hand and kisses it. "He knows" I whisper. "Yeah" He sighs "And.....?" I ask "And.......there's not much we can do about it" He replies "I'm tired of worrying about everyone else. Let's just be together and not care what they think" I nod along with his words. I turn and kiss him, straight on the lips, accepting his words completely. Minho walks in and doesn't say anything. I think he's gotten used to seeing us together. "When you guys are finished" He starts, but I hardly hear him "I need Newt over in the Map room. I think we might've found something" Then he walks out and is gone. But our kiss stopped the second he said they might've found something. We stare at each other, frozen in shock. Newt reacts first, standing up. "Can I come too?" I ask. He contemplates for a second, then nods "Why not? If they've got a problem then they can take it up with me" He says. And so, completely ignoring what Jeff just said, we walk hand in hand to the map room and Newt knocks on the door.

Newt's pov

Minho opens the door and stares at Y/n. "Newt, she can't co-" I cut him off "No, she's coming in." He rolls his eyes and just steps inside. We walk in and I can see Y/n remembering her first time in here; right before she went into the maze, right before the accident. She shudders lightly. I look around and see Minho and some of the other runners - Jorge, Ben, Adam and Rob - along with 5 maps, one from each of their sections, laid out on the table in the middle of the room. "Ok so, what have you found?" I ask, getting impatient with all the waiting. Minho glances at Y/n, then at me, as if asking if he can talk about it with her around. "Just talk" I say. He sighs and looks at the other runners before starting. "Ok so, we think we've found a pattern" He says. One of the other runners - Adam - continues "But we don't know what it means or if it'll help at all" I stand there processing what I just heard whenY/n speaks up. "Show us" She says. The runners look at Minho for confirmation and when he nods they turn the papers to us. At first I don't see anything, but then I notice that some of the lines - that represent walls - are repeated and look like they're trying to show something. But the longer I look at it, the less it makes sense. I shake my head slightly and Minho sees it. "Yeah, exactly. It makes no sense" I look at Y/n and she looks so concentrated on the lines; she's biting her lip slightly and her eyebrows are drawn. I can't help but think how beautiful she looks. I'm so cheesy I think. "But, the first few lines...... oh ok....." She says, her voice drifting off every now and then. We all look at her in shock. "What?" She asks "How does this make sense to you?" Ben replies. "It doesn't, but you just have to look and concentrate and you'll see what it's trying to tell you" She says. The shock on our faces must be really obvious because she looks up at us all and laughs. "OK, calm down. I didn't decipher it, I just think it'll make more sense if we have more to compare '' Minho pulls me to the side as Y/n looks back at the maps and points to little details that none of us saw. "Dude" He says "She might actually figure it out!" He looks excited and hopeful. I nod and add "She just needs time" He looks at me as if I just solved everything "Exactly!" he exclaims "She just needs more time!" I look at him, feeling very confused, but he just keeps talking "This should be her job! Just assign her to the runners and she can do this! And she doesn't even have to go in the maze! Just analyze our maps!" He says all of this with a glint in his eye, saying he's very proud of his solution. I think about it for a minute. "We'll have to talk to Alby first" He nods "But if he says yes, then sure, but only if she's alright with it" I say giving him a stern look at the last part. "I won't make her do anything she doesn't want to" I say. Minho just rolls his eyes, apparently back to his usual self. "C'mon, let's go talk to Alby" He says, slapping me on the back as he walks past "Now!?" I ask. "Yeah, let's go" Now it's my turn to roll my eyes. "Ok, fine, let's go" But before I can walk out Y/n grabs my arm. "Where are you guys going? What are you up to now?" She asks, her eyes narrowing slightly. Suspicious. "Come on, we'll explain on the way to Alby" Minho yells. She has to think for a second, before letting me go and walking out the door "Why are we going to Alby?" She asks when we catch up to Minho. "We're going to ask him about a job for you" Her eyes almost pop out of their sockets when she hears this "WHAT!?!" This makes Minho stop. He looks surprised at her reaction. "We're going to ask him if you can be assigned to us" Is all he says. "No. No. Absolutely not" she says. "Don't worry love, you won't have to go into the maze. You can just stay in the map room and analyse the maps. I won't put you in danger, ok? I promise" I say. This seems to calm her down. "But what if I don't want to spend all day cooped up in there?" She asks quietly. Minho just shrugs. "We can work it out" She sighs. "Fine, let's go" she says.
