Minho: A Maze Runner Fanfiction

Chapter 11 is the Tree of Heaven

About a week and a half after the last chapter

You wake up in Minho's arms and almost immediately feel the nausea kick in. You scramble to your feet and run out of the doors to the tent before Minho even has time to ask. You start running towards the bathrooms, but the vomit comes up before you can get there. You don't even bother trying to hold it in and you just let yourself throw up all over in front of you. You look up to see Newt with a disgusted face, his clothes covered in the sandwich you had for dinner last night. "Sorry" you mumble. He laughs light heartedly and jokes around with you saying, "Good morning to you too. Feel free to let anything else you've got in there out"
"Unfortunately, I think that's it." You tease him. "You might wanna go wash that off"
"You know, I think this look suites me." He says, checking himself out.
"Y/n! Are you alright?" You hear Minho shout from behind and see him running up to you and Newt.
"Woooah. I'm impressed. I didn't know you had that in you" he mocks looking at Newt and the mess you made. "Come on, let's get you two cleaned up." He pats you on the back.
"Minho! Come on man, we gotta go!" Thomas yells to Minho as he runs towards the group. "Sorry 'bout your girlfriend, but you can't be late again." Minho turns to you and murmurs "sorry" before he runs off with Thomas.
"I think I might go wash up." Newt gestures towards his damp and quite frankly disgusting clothes.
"Really? I can't imagine why." You tease before he walks off to the bathrooms and you start towards the deadheads. As soon as you get to the deadheads, the nausea kicks in again, despite your empty stomach. You begin to feel cramps in your lower abdomen. You sit leaning against your tree for a bit, moaning because of the pain, until the cramps settle down enough for you to tough it up. You see a freshly cleaned Newt walking towards you, making his way swiftly through the forest despite his limp. He sits down at a tree across from yours and looks you in the eye before asking, "what did you eat?"
"Newt.... I'm not entirely sure that me throwing up was from Frypans food." You say, not really thinking things through before you say them.
"What do you bloody mean by that?" He asks, sounding thoroughly concerned.
"I think... I think I might be pregnant." You tell him, tears forming in your eyes.
"Wait.. What?" Newt says, grabbing your hands. "Did you...." He begins to form a question but immediately trails off.
"Minho's going to be so mad!" You cry out.
"Wait, how do you even know you're pregnant?" Newt asks, clearly sounding astonished.
"Think about it Newt! I missed my period, I'm having cramps, and I'm not sure if you noticed, but I'm having some morning sicknesses! I need a test Newt! There's no other way to know! What am I going to do?! We have to ask the Creators to send me a test! Can we do that? Is that a thing? When will the box come?" You ramble on, not pausing to breath as you speak.
"Relax, y/n. The box comes tomorrow and yes, we can do that. I'll be sure to put in that request so that we can get it for you." He reassures you.
"Oh thank you Newt!" You jump up and engulf Newt in a hug. He hugs you back and his strong arms stop the tears from pouring out of your eyes.
You and Newt walk to the Homestead and find a piece of paper and pen. You write down your wish, and walk back over to the box where Newt throws it in. A few hours after lunch, Minho returns.
"Hey y/n. Feeling any better?" He asks, taking your hand.
"Yeah.. I guess it must have been Frypans food..." You blatantly lie. He can't know yet. Especially if you aren't even pregnant.
He chuckles, "Yeah, Frypans food is less nutritious than a pile of klunk. You up for dinner?"
"Yeah! Let's go." You and Minho walk off to dinner, and you try to act as natural as possible. Newt eyes you suspiciously a few times, particularly when you complain that your stomach still hurts. You try not to go into too much detail, in hopes that Minho doesn't connect the dots before you even have the chance.

The next morning you wake up feeling equally as cruddy as the day before, if not a little worse. You still don't want Minho to get suspicious, so you hold in your barf until he leaves. But right after he walks out of those doors, breakfast comes out.
"Been waiting to do that for awhile" you mumble as you begin to clean up the mess you've made.
"I could tell. I'm not sure that Minho is really catching on though. He hasn't always been the brightest bulb on the tree." says Newt as he kneels down to help you clean up your breakfast.
"When is the box coming today?" You ask, already knowing the answer.
"Soon. Don't worry, you'll know before he gets back." He reassures you.
Thank god. Is what you think, but all you say is "okay."
You both continue to clean up your puke, and as if on queue, the alarm of the box goes off right as you are done mopping up the ground. Of course, it probably is on queue. They are always watching us. They probably knew.
You and Newt walk over to the box where Alby and Gally are standing, awaiting their supplies.
"I take it they don't know?" You whisper into Newts ear.
"Well did you want me to bloody tell them?" He whispers back.
"No.. I just thought it might be weird for me to pick up a pregnancy test with them standing here." You shrug.
"It would probably be worse if I was the one to take it to you." He points out.
"True. Very true." You contemplate before yelling, "HEY CHUCK! COME HERE!" He obeys and runs to where you and Newt stand, awaiting the box's arrival. "Can you do me a favor and distract Alby and Gally for a few seconds? It doesn't need to be long." You whisper in his ear, so not even Newt can hear you. Chuck nods and walks away. Chuck must have a sixth sense for when the box is going to show up, because when it clatters to a stop, Chuck begins the distraction. You and Newt quickly jump into the box in search for the test. You find it first, and make a run for the Homestead bathrooms. "Get everyone out of there!" You instruct Newt, and he runs ahead to make sure no one is in there. Despite what feels like a lot of commotion you are making, it seems that you are invisible to the other Gladers. You continue on to the Homestead and find Newt holding the door open to the bathroom for you. "She's all yours." He proclaims as you walk into the bathroom. "Best of luck!" He shouts as the door closes behind you.
You take the test and of course, it comes out positive. You swear under your breath. This is going to be a long nine months.
