Newt in a Relationship:
When you first met Newt, it was easy to tell that he was someone who carried a lot of weight on his shoulders. As the second-in-command in the Glade, he had to manage so much responsibility, always thinking about the safety of the others and keeping things under control. But what you quickly learned about him was that despite his leadership role, Newt was also someone who deeply valued connection—especially when it came to someone he trusted.
In a relationship, Newt was all about balance. He didn’t rush into things, but when he did, he dove in completely, not with the overbearing intensity some might expect from someone in his position, but with a steady, unwavering presence. He had a calmness about him that made everything feel right, even in the midst of the chaos that surrounded them in the Glade.
At first, Newt was careful. He didn't want to burden you with his responsibilities or the dark side of his past. He knew that leading in the Glade wasn’t easy, and it often put him in difficult positions—he was the one making the hard decisions, keeping people safe but also having to enforce rules that no one liked. But with you, he was different. He opened up in small ways—talking about the peaceful days before the Maze, sharing a laugh about something funny in the Glade, or confiding in you about his struggles. He never pushed you into anything more than you were ready for.
You could see it in the way his eyes softened when he looked at you, the way his hand would graze yours whenever you were close. Even in the toughest moments, you could tell that having you by his side made things easier for him. Slowly but surely, you started to feel the tension in his shoulders relax when he was around you, his smile growing more genuine, his laughs more frequent. You made him feel like there was something worth fighting for—something more than just survival.
In a relationship, Newt was incredibly supportive, always making sure you felt heard and cared for. If you were having a bad day, he would notice immediately. Even in the busiest moments, when he had a dozen other things on his mind, he would always take the time to check on you.
"Hey, love, you okay?" he’d ask quietly, his hand gently brushing your hair back or his thumb lightly running over your knuckles. It was small gestures like these that made you feel completely safe in his care.
If you ever needed to vent or needed help with something, he was the first one to listen. Newt wasn’t the type to interrupt or offer unsolicited advice. He was patient, letting you talk things through until you found your own answers. But he also offered gentle guidance when needed, sharing his thoughts in a way that felt like he wasn’t just telling you what to do but helping you figure it out for yourself.
Being protective came naturally to Newt, but he always made sure to do it in a way that made you feel cared for—not controlled. He wasn’t the type to hover, but he was always alert, keeping an eye on things in case you needed him. If there was ever a situation where you were in danger, Newt would be the first one there, ready to fight for you and keep you safe, no questions asked.
At the same time, he trusted you. He trusted you to make decisions for yourself and believed in your ability to handle whatever came your way. If anything, his protectiveness was more about reassurance than control. He knew you were strong, but he wanted to make sure you knew he had your back when you needed him.
He would always reassure you when you were worried about things. "Don’t stress, love. I’m right here with you," he’d say, pulling you close to him, offering a sense of comfort and safety. His arms around you felt like a shield, protecting you from anything the world could throw your way.
Newt wasn’t one to throw around grand, over-the-top gestures, but when it came to affection, he showed you how much he cared in subtle but meaningful ways. He would often surprise you with small touches—his hand brushing yours as he walked past, a gentle kiss on your forehead before you went to bed, or his arm around you as you sat together watching the stars. It was never forced or awkward; it just felt natural with him.
He loved holding you, whether it was in a quiet moment where you could both relax and enjoy each other’s company, or when you were both trying to get some sleep in the cramped hammock. Even in a small space, Newt always made sure you felt comfortable, adjusting the hammock or holding you tightly so you wouldn’t feel like you were falling.
When you were upset, Newt would hold you close, offering comforting words, but sometimes he didn’t need to say anything at all. His presence alone was enough to make you feel like everything would be okay. He was a man of few words, but when he did speak, it was always meaningful
One of the most beautiful things about Newt in a relationship was how he always looked to grow and improve together. He wasn’t perfect, and he knew it, but he was always willing to listen and change for the better. He didn’t shy away from mistakes but owned up to them, especially if they had anything to do with how he treated you.
"Sorry if I’ve been distant lately," he’d say, his eyes full of sincerity. "I just... I don’t want to put anything on you. But I want to do better. For you." And you could tell he meant it. Every time he said something like that, he would make an effort to show you with actions, not just words. Newt didn’t take you for granted—he constantly tried to improve himself, not just as a leader, but as a partner.
You two would spend time together in the Glade, talking about what the future might look like beyond the Maze, about your hopes and dreams. And Newt’s face would soften when you spoke, his eyes full of admiration and love. "I never thought I’d get to share this with anyone," he’d say, and you’d know exactly what he meant—this life, this struggle, and somehow, the hope for something more, something outside of the Glade.
Ultimately, Newt’s love for you was grounded in respect, patience, and quiet devotion. He wasn’t flashy or grandiose about his feelings, but when it came to showing you how much you meant to him, he did it every day in his own way. You were his safe place, and he was yours. No matter the chaos around you, no matter the dangers of the Maze or the challenges ahead, Newt would always be there.
In the end, Newt proved that love wasn’t just about big declarations or heroic acts—it was about the little things, the quiet moments, the shared glances, and the commitment to always be there for each other, no matter what the world threw at you. And with Newt, you knew that, no matter how hard things got, you’d always have someone who would stand by you, hand in hand, through it all.
