"Come on love. The bonfire is about to start". Newt said who was holding my hand.

"I prefer to come when the fire is already on and all you don't pay attention to it". I said smiling.

"No, today you will light the fire with me and the others". He said turning his head to face me.

"Do you want me to change my mind and light you instead of the fire?" I said teasingly.

"Okay that's offensive". He said laughing.

"No. I can actually do it. My intentions are not that bad". I said pulling a serious face. His smile dropped. Ii might have sounded like a threat. "I'm joking". I said chuckling. "Or maybe not". I added.

"Okay let's go". With a smile on his face he dragged me to the bonfire.

We were ready to lit up the fire.

Well I don't know if I could. Newt wanted me to so I can have a greater time. He found the excuse that if it was my idea to have a bonfire I should have my best time in it.

To be honest, I would like another peaceful night. Chuck wanted to do something interesting. At least he would attend this time.

"Come on love. Let's get the torches". He said grabbing a torch handing it to me.

"Ha! No way".

"Why do you refuse? This is a nice way to have fun".

I looked at him in the eyes. With everything happening to me I don't know if I had the courage to do something fun.

"Okay". I said sighing. "I'll do it". A smile formed in my face when I saw his eyes lit up.

"Great! That's amazing! Come on let's go". He said pulling me up from where I was sitting.

He handed me a torch and there were more boys surrounding around the fire.

"Okay in the count of three". A random boy said. "1...2...3!" He said and all of us threw the torches on the woods which was supposed to be the bonfire.

The fire lit up and it was beautiful. Everyone started cheering up and clapping. I did too. I wanted to forget about what has been happening to me and this was my chance to leave it all behind. For a moment.

Newt pulled me away from the crowd. He led us on that log where he sat the last two times. We sat down and our backs were facing the fire.

I noticed a jar with Gally's drink. I reached out to get it but someone pulled me back.

"Ha! Don't even think about it love". He said pulling me closer to him by my waist.

"I don't get why. What happened the last time I can't remember". I actually wondered. I had no memory from the last bonfire. The only thing I know is that I was drunk. At least I was told so.

His face got a little red but soon recovered. "Nothing love. You did nothing". He said clearing his throat.

"Wait". I said turning my whole body facing him. "Something happened that you are not telling me".

"Love I can assure you nothing else happened that we haven't told you". He said taking a sip of his drink.

"What happened after then?" I said and he paused.

"Well, you got tired, wanted to do things with me and called me a..lizard". He said and all I could do was laugh.

"Lizard?"
