You were looking at the flowers growing by the little pond in the Deadheads. This is where you went when you needed to escape for a while. Being the only girl is not exactly easy.

A twig snaps in the distance. You look up but see no one there. Out of fear, you jump up with knife in hand. You stand in your fighting stance and look straight in the direction where you heard the noise. Something is emerging out of a bush. A beat of sweat fall and you feel like you can't move.

The figure fully steps out and you are met with bright green eyes, shaggy blond hair, and rags for clothing. A wave of relief washes over you as you realize it's just Newt.

"Sorry to scare you, Love. I was just a bit worried seeing as you left a while ago." Those words alone made your heart flutter. You've always thought of Newt as more than a friend. But you scolded yourself for being foolish to think he could ever love you.

"I w-was just looking at the flowers to-to clear my head," you stuttered. Wow, real smooth Y/N.

"Alright, just be sure not too stay to long. People will think you've been bloody murdered," he says chuckling.

"Actually, I think I'll come with you. I'm feeling a bit hungry anyway."

You and Newt went toward the Homestead to get today's meal from Frypan when you saw the Runners coming back. Ben came first and he was running faster than the other to you. He was all bloody and screamed, "I'M GONNA KILL YOU!"

You braced yourself, covering your face but never felt an impact. You open one eye to see Newt holding Ben up by his neck.

"If you ever bloody touch her again, I'll kill you not the grievers." You've never seen Newt this hostile. You'd be lying if you said it wasn't sexy.

Newt threw him on the ground and Alby lifted his shirt and saw he was stung.

"Take him to the Medicks!" Alby shouted. Thomas and Minho picked up his now unconscious body and took him to Jeff.

"Thanks Newt," you say quietly.

"Hey, if someone messes with my girl, they've got what's coming to them," he replied slightly blushing. 'Oh my god, I made him blush?! How is that even humanely possible?!' you thought.

"Listen, Y/N, I kinda like you. I actually really like you and I have since you came." You were speechless. He's felt this way the whole time!

"I like you too!" You practically shouted. You shrunk down embarrassed. But then you were suddenly squished into a warm embrace.

"Will you be my girlfriend?"

"Yes."
