Hiii i really love your fics and I would like to ask if you haven't already done it where newt and reader get into an argument about her being a runner because you scared that she'll get hurt or even worse die but it ends all with fluff and there was also wondering if you could make it to where he normally calls her love but whenever he gets really mad he calls her by her name Thanks xxx

"I don't think this is a good idea love," Newt says leaning on the wood inside the meeting hall his hoodie around his waist and his arms across his chest

"You say that about everything I do"

"...I mean you do have a track record of bad ideas"

"What no I don't!"

"What about that time you tried to build bunk beds as a hammock alternative and ended up breaking Ben and Zart's legs?"

"One time. Maybe if Zart went on top as I told him to It wouldn't have collapsed. I told Ben he was too heavy for the top bunk"

"No, you used a total of four screws on the whole thing"

"Fine one time. Not like I make a lot of bad ideas?"

"What about that time you set fire to a tree because you thought it would clear all the green foliage and smaller beaches leaving only the main tree to cut down but it got way out of control and you burnt down half the deadheads?"

"I admit the dryness of the wood was an unforeseen circumstance, and the trees being too close together"

"What about that time you got the smart idea to cook a bunch of mushrooms you found behind the showers and gave the whole glade food poisoning"

"I was fine"

"What about that time you tried to build a 'outdoor bath'"

"That would have worked if you hadn't stopped me"

"Now we just have a huge damp hole"

"Not all my ideas are bad"

"This one is"

"Why?"

"Love your not cut out to run in the maze every day"

"Yes I am"

"No you're not, it's a lot of running, a lot of work, a lot of memorising" he explained

"You can do it why can't I?"

"Because love it's a tough job"

"It's because I'm a girl isn't it"

"It's not because you're a girl."

"Then why can't I be a runner"

"Look love the maze is big and harsh and dangerous for a girl like you"

"So it is because I'm a girl!"

"It's not because you're a girl!"

"Then why!"

"Love the maze is dangerous, it changes every day, it's hard to navigate, you could get lost, you could trip on a vine and twist your ankle, hell there's cracks and blocks you could break your leg on. And we don't have time for someone to go out and find you if something bad happened..."

"I'd have a running partner"

"That's not the point you could get really badly hurt in the maze"

"So could you"

He sighed "love... I can't in good conscience send you out into the maze. I just can't. You could get hurt, badly hurt. If you got lost or something bad happened, what if you got locked out after the doors shut one day? We'd never see you again. Something could happen so easily in there it's just not safe"

"But I want to help, I feel like klunk stuck in the glade doing laundry and cleaning I feel useless newt I want to help you guys another pair of feet out there can't be a bad thing"

"It's just too dangerous, love. You could die."

"So could you"

For a moment there was silence

"It's not your decision anyway"

"I may not be the keeper of the runners but I'm second on command and I'm telling you no."

"But I wanna be a runner!"

"And in telling you no! It's too dangerous it's not happening!"

"You can't stop me! I'll just go on my own"

"You are not going out on your own"

"I am"

"Like bloody hell you are!"

"You can't stop me!"

"Y/n enough!"

I froze up the moment he said that

"Y/n enough, I'm second in command your not being a runner and you're not to go in the maze that's final"

"You... you've never called me that before"

"...well... you've never made me that mad before," he says shuffling his feet

"Do you really think it's too dangerous?"

"For you. Yeah. I've lost a lot of friends to this place ... I can't lose you too"

"Well then how do you think I feel? Watching you run off in there every day. If you don't think it's safe for me how do you think that makes me feel watching you run off in there knowing you...might not come back"

"You don't have to worry about me love. I can take care of myself"

"Then don't you trust that I can take care of myself?"

He sighed "Okay... I'll have a word with Minho about it I can't promise anything, But you're going through training at least a month before you even step foot through those doors you hear me"

"Thank you newt!" I smiled hugging him tightly

"I'm not making any promises. And I'll be the one training you so don't expect me to be nice"

"I won't" I smiled squeezing his skinny body

"Just...be careful y/n, okay?" He says petting my hair

"I will, don't you trust me?"

"I do I just... I worry about you"

"Well, I'm sure my running partner will keep me nice and safe" I smiled rubbing my nose on his

"Now that is a bad idea"

"Why? The best person to make sure I'm being kept safe is you, and you'll be doing my training anyway so best to keep us in a rhythm and you can just be my running partner"

"That is a very bad idea"

"Why?"

"Well, once we leave we're in the maze officially out of alby's glade rules, all alone in the maze together," he suggested stroking the small of my back

"I'm not seeing the bad yet?"

"Well, I'm hardly going to want to focus on memorising maze patterns am I? I think I'd be far interested in a different type of exploring" he smirked

"I'm still not seeing what's bad about that?"

"You wouldn't" he smirked tugging me into a kiss which I smiled and happily kissed back it immediately turning into a rather slow but sloppy make-out till he pulled back "Come on love, how about we go do a little endurance training?"

"Ohh will my legs get tired?"

"Most definitely" he smirked "but if you push through it you'll get a very special reward" he smiled kissing my head before we headed out towards my little privet hut in the deadheads.
