Newt Imagine

Your POV

Two years and still no closer to getting out of this place. I'm so sick of running everyday and for what? Nothing but exhaustion and sweat drenched clothes.

I mapped my section and hurried to my room. I could care less what these guys think but personally I prefer not to look like a complete slob.

I pulled my hair into a messy bun and wiped the grime off my face. After one last glance at my reflection in knife I ran down the steps two at a time to get to dinner.

I scarfed down my dinner in record time. Hey running all day makes a girl hungry alright. Minho, Chuck, Newt, and Ben all looked at me with a mix of concern and admiration in their eyes.

"Wow y/n," Minho finally said. "That was impressive." I blushed a little bit. I try not eat like a dude in front of everyone but I couldn't help it.

I looked around the room until my eyes met Newts. We held eye contact for a long time before Ben cleared his throat.

"Um..Minho, Chuck, I think we should give them a little bit of space." He smirked and all three walked away to do who knows what.

Newt and I still hadn't broken eye contact.

"Y/n can I ask you something?" He said hesitantly.

"Sure, what's on your mind?"

"I know I shouldn't ask this, but have you found anything out in the maze."

My heart dropped a little bit. I wanted to tell him something positive but it was hopeless. The Runners and I were no closer to finding a way out of here than we were two years ago.

"Nothing today, but I feel like we're getting close," I tried to say with some conviction.

He looked at me with those gorgeous brown eyes. I can't lie to him. He's my best friend.

"Hey don't be so hard on yourself. If anyone can find a way out, its you."

"You really think so?"

"Yeah, you're smart, strong.....ad beautiful," he whispered the last part so quietly I almost didn't hear him. I prayed to God my cheeks weren't as red as I thought they were.

I looked up to see him scratching the back of his neck awkwardly.

"Newt, did you just say you think I'm beautiful?"

"Yeah..." I smiled. I got up from my spot and sat next to him.

I leaned in and grabbed his hand intertwining our fingers. "You're adorable when you get nervous by the way." I said before kissing his cheek.
