The maze runner: If I live (Newt x reader)

Chapter 9

Y/n

I was pretty upset that I didn't tell Alby that I actually wanted to be a runner but being a gardener seemed like fun especially because it was with Newt. I got up from the bench and walked over to Newt who was talking to Jeff but when he saw me Jeff immediately pulled me by the arm and took me to the clinic with Newt close behind. As soon as we got there he lifted me up onto the bed and went to his draws rummaging about, trying to find something. "Umm, context please. What is happening?" I said confused to Jeff and he responded saying "When Newt brought you back here he pointed out that you had a note stuck onto your wrist. We unfolded it and it said that you have a brother...Gally." He looked at me nervously waiting for my reaction. "Have you told Gally yet?" I asked him and he replied saying "We have told someone to go and get him, so he'll be here soon." "Whaaaaaaat?!?!?!?" I heard a scream go through the glade and Jeff looked at me with worry. "I think he found out," he said grimacing. Just then Gally rushed in, looked at me and ran to give me a hug. "I've always wanted a sister" he said as he started twirling me around in happiness "Wait, so you're not angry?" I asked a bit confused "No, of course not." he said before going over to Jeff and whispering something in his ear, he nodded and went to tell Newt "mhm, yeah, ok" was all I could hear, before all 3 of them ran to me and hoisted me up onto their shoulders.

I started screaming and kicking them, only stopping when I realized I couldn't get out of their grip but when I saw the big lake look up in front of us, I started pushing them off of me even more. I grabbed Newt's head and pushed it upwards to look at me, I looked at him pleadingly and said "Please, Newt, don't throw me in, please." He looked up at me and smirked saying "Sorry y/n, it's tradition" before all three of them threw me into the lake. Once my head came up to the surface again I started shivering with the sudden coldness of the lake. I then noticed that Newt and Gally had also come in and were also shivering slightly and I plunged both their heads into the water. I then realized that that was a mistake as their heads didn't come back up. I was getting worried and was calling their names out when I suddenly felt something tug lightly on both of my legs. I froze immediately while all these ideas of different monsters circled through my head. The thing then pulled my legs again but much stronger this time and my whole body was plunged underwater. I came back up to see both Newt and Gally laughing at me so hard they were nearly crying. "Newt!, Gally!" they said, mockingly imitating what I did earlier. "Shuckheads" I said to them both while pushing both their heads together. They then proceeded to splash me as hard as they could and I did the same "It's not fair, two against one" I said to them. I then got out, splashing then again on my way to the showers.
