Encountering the Blades: a Newt Fanfiction

"Like I Care, it's Alby..."

A/N: *I wrote this on my phone so if things are misspelled, I blame my fat fingers*

"Gally,what are you doing over here?"

He answers without looking up at you, currently re-tying your hammock. "Oh, I uh... Saw what happened with Newt earlier, and I uh, thought you could use some help."

You smile, "thanks, Gally, I really appreciate it.. Well um, since you're doing the hammock, I'm going to go get my other clothes and stuff."

You walk over to go and lift the box by yourself, but are sadly disappointed when you realize you won't be able to lift it all the way to your hammock. You sigh on defeat.

I'll just go get Gally...

Someone comes up behind you and puts their hand on your shoulder slightly moving you, and as a reaction, you grab the knife off of your thigh, turn to the side, and quickly place the knife in front of their neck.

"WHAT THE CLUNK Y/N?!"

"Oh my god, Gally I'm so sorry... I just, I'm not sure, reflex I suppose."

Gally finally looks at you and realizes you've changed clothes, but is still awe struck, by the fact that you could have just killed him. "Yeah.... Uh anyway, I just came to move this box.. I figured it would be pretty heavy so um.. here I am" the twitch of a smile appears on his face.

As he's leaving you turn and ask, "Hey Gally, could you um... Not tell anybody what just happened.. I just don't want people to think that.. I'm like a freak or something..."

"Anything Y/N." He continues to carry the box to your hammock, and then walks back to go talk to the builders.

You walk into the homestead to get something to eat from Frypan, and as you walk in, you notice people looking at you, but choose to ignore it.

"Hey Fry! Got anything good cook'n?"

"Sorry y/n, you gotta wait until the runners get their food."

You sigh a little, "Finneee, but I'm waiting nearby, so I get first dibs you hear me?"

He gets in a funny general accent "Ma'am yes ma'am!" This causes you to laugh, for the first time in a long time.

You go and sit down at one of the nearest tables, and start braiding your hair into two dutch braids, so it's out of the way.

"Hey Greenie, you ready for working in the gardens today?" Said the boy I least wanted to see.

"You know Newt, you can call me by my name, everyone else does already."

He scoffs,"yeah well everyone else also wants to get closer to you, and I don't know if you noticed, but that's the last thing I'd wanna do."

"Gee... Thanks, and actually gardening seems boring, all it is is dirt... nothing exciting."

"Whatever," he sits down next to you, "also, I recommend you stop flirting with Gally."

You gasp in shock" first of all, I am NOT flirting with Gally, second it's none of your shuck business."

He rolls his eyes, "like I care, it's Alby, he doesn't want any relations to distract anyone from work"

Whatever...

Minho and Ben walk in, and Minho shouts to the back, "Yo Fry, What're ya  making for us today?"

"Same as always Minho, and I'll be dead before the day you get anything else." Frypan laughs and you snigger.

"Oh hey, Y/n!" Minho offers high-five and you take it.

"Minho!"

Minho gets excited as he yells," MAMA NEWT'S HERE TOO, AWW!"

Newt gets grumpy at the nickname, and continues to think of one for Minho, but fails.

You cut in with a fake pout, "Awww, that's not vewy nice mean-hoe" you say accentuating the space in-between the words.

They both look taken aback, and then Newt bursts our laughing.

"Oh my shuck," he's laughing so hard he starts to tear up," that was the best thing I've ever heard y/n, oh my shuck..."

He said my actual name...

After that, Minho and Ben got their food, and left to run the maze for the day leaving you and Newt in the homestead waiting for food.
