Thomas' POV
My brain was still racing trying to process what just happened, I have been so carefree ever since we arrived at this safe haven.
It never even occurred to me that the flare was brought up my anxiety or stress. My body was swallowed with remorse.
Newt was still beside me, my arm wrapped around his torso.
"I'm so sorry Tommy... I couldn't control it... I could've hurt you..."
Newt whispered, breaking the silence.
"No.. Newt... What you said was true, I was hurting you and I wasn't even aware."
I used my thumbs to stroke his arms.
"I'm sorry, for putting you through all that... you shouldn't have to, you... you deserve someone better than me... I'm horrible."
I stuttered, the tears welling around my eyes falling down my face.
"Tommy... Listen to me, you are the most brilliant person I have ever met. You saved me... countless times, you're a brilliant leader, fighter, friend."
Butterflies swarmed my stomach as I felt a sweet sensation trickle through my veins.
"I care about you so much Newt, I just didn't realize soon enough... If only I wasn't so stupid, this wouldn't have happened."
"Well we're here now, it's all that matters."
He smiled at me, the most beautiful sight I could possibly ask for.
I pulled him closer to me and planted a small kiss on his cheeks. Such a simple form of contact, it had such a large effect on me. There really was something special about him.
"Tommy you're driving me crazy"
He moaned quietly.
"Literally."
I chuckled, beside me Newt let out a small laugh. The two of us sitting side by side, smiling ear to ear. This was all I could ever ask for.
