I wake up to a slightly uneasy feeling in my stomach. I groan and sit up. I sit on Newts bed, his sheets all messed up. I run my hands through my hair and look to my side. A sleeping Newt lays there, no shirt on, sheets crumpled at his waist. I gulp. Why am I in here? I slowly get out of bed. My stomach shifts. Ugh. I shake Newt.

"What the shuck happened?" He opens his eyes and smiles groggily at me. "Don't you remember?" I gulp, the uneasy feeling growing. "No." He smiles and gets up. Thank God he has pants on. He pulls me into a hug, hands running through my hair. My stomach turns to butterflies and I start to hum. Oh please, don't let me puke on Newt, anyone but Newt.

"Well, last night, I did this." He nose brushes the top of my head. "Then I didn't this." He lips slowly kiss my neck. I shiver in delight. "Then I did this." He picks me up so I'm eye level with him and our noses touch. "Guess what happens next." I smile and giggle.

I think it would be really funny if I now screamed PLOT TWIST and we randomly started doing the Irish jig but I didn't want to ruin the moment.

His lips are millimeters from mine, just a couple more seconds and we we'll be kissing-

Then suddenly I am being shaken violently.

"Elizabeth, wake up! And stop doing that big goofy smile in your sleep, it's kind of scaring me!"

"And then she wakes up and slaps me in the face!" Minho finishes his story with a grand slapping face gesture. Everybody at our picnic table laughs and my face flushes bright red. Just to have something to do I take the ponytail off of my wrist and tie my hair up. My arm brushes Newt's elbow and I am reminded of my dream. I was so embarrassed when I woke to find I was dreaming of having romantic moments with Newt! Ugh. Idiot idiot idiot.

"Hey, Elizabeth? Why are you sitting there looking like you just bloody swallowed something sour?" The butterflies worsen in my stomach and I turn to smile at Newt. "I was shaming myself." He laughs, but suddenly stops when he sees my face. "Wait, you weren't being bloody serious, were you?!" I sigh and go back to eating my food. "Oh Newt." Suddenly Minho's there pulling Newt away. "Time to run shank."

I am waiting by the couple boys by the box. Now, before you start to assume things this is not a drill, there is a new Greenie coming.

I'm totally joking chill.

We are getting our weekly supplies and I could barely stand still. It was like Christmas morning. My whole mind was screaming GIRL CLOTHES PLZ THIS GIRL NEEDS SOME OF THEM HOT NEW TRENDS!

I'm weird, just except it.

The boys pull open the doors, and two I them hop down and start to hand up some boxes to the two boys up here. I scream slightly as a box suddenly gets thrown at me. I gracefully catch it with my face. "Ow!" I mumble, rubbing my nose. Luckily the box was a kind of meshy type thing.

I eagerly bring it up to Minho's and my room and open it. I smile delightedly. "Yay!"

~

I finish hanging the last shirt when a flustered Clint bursts into the room. "Elizabeth, um, sorry to ruin your clothes moment, but your job started, um, let me think, AN HOUR AGO."

"Oh."

"Yeah, oh."

I smile sheepishly. "Let's go then?" He huffs and runs his hands through his hair. "Pleeeaaassee start to take this seriously." I sigh. "I am." He turns and starts to walk out, calling over his shoulder. "We are going to have to go out to the builders site, apparently this brick fell on this guy or something." I roll my eyes. Yeah, a brick just fell on some guy, casually slip that into the conversation.
