(Alby POV)

We sit there in the quiet first aid hut. Just me and Newt. He's still in the bed,I stand hunched against the wall.

"What do you want Alby?" He asks me.
"You."
"Me?"
"Yes."

As I say this I notice the bandage on his wrist.

"Please Newt..." It isn't long until the tears are pouring down my face "Please stop."
"I can't." I see he's crying too.
"Can you remember your family?"
"Nah,of course not."
"Can you remember loving anyone?"
"No."
"Last night. You told me you loved me."
"I know."
"So what are you telling me that isn't true now?"
"I'll always love you Alby."
"So I want you to know that hurting yourself.. It doesn't just hurt you it hurts everyone around you. Imagine every time you cut,you're cutting me,you're cutting your family,you're cutting Minho,Zart,Clint,Frypan.. Anyone is this shucking place. Would you still do it?"
"Alby,I don't think I can-"

So I lurch towards him against and press my lips against his,getting the same feeling I did before, but this time he stays there. Doesn't pull away. But he still seems un-sure about what to do. He keeps the kiss going,my hands plant on his shoulders,then slide down slowly,not until I feel the bandage on his wrist,I shudder at the thought but keep on with his locked in mine, until we have to pull away for air..

"Do you still love me?" He asks.
"Of course I do. Why wouldn't I?"
"Because it's me."
"That makes it even better."

And with that sentence say we hear the clank of the box...
