Runnin', Workin' and Seriously Fallin' - A Maze Runner Fanfiction

Sixth

Newt PoV:

Ah nawh.

Why did I do that?

Because I wanted to (because I'm a cheeky Newt). And she had to get a decent night sleep. What else could I suggest? Sleep in the bloody slammer?

'Are you sure? You don't mind?' Jesse questions me.

'Of course I don't mind.'

'Where will you sleep?'

'On the floor I guess.'

'You can have the bed?'

'No you can.'

'No you can.'

'No you can.'

'Fine. I will. But you're coming in too.'

You what? I've never shared a bed with anyone before, let alone a girl I met three days ago.

'If you say so. We shall sleep together,' I turn to see Gally walk down the steps.

'Now now Newt, we don't want to rush into things too quickly,' he snarls, laughing to himself. In fact, Jesse's laughing too. My cheeks become red again.

'Slim it, Gally,' I pronounce between gritted teeth.

'We don't want Jessica here putting all her eggs in one basket, Newt.'

'It's Jesse,' I point out.

'Even better,' he winks at her, 'use protection, Jesse.'

Jesse's eyes meet mine when Gally leaves. She shows no sign of discomfort - unlike me - instead she looks confident. She stands up (slightly wobbles as she does) and cups my head in her hands. Her lips gently bump the middle of my forehead.

'Sweetheart,' she whispers, her lips forming a small curve.
