Newt's Pov
Where was Ella? She and Minho should have been back hours ago. The doors would be closing soon and I was getting extremely worried. Minho promised he'd take care of my girlfriend. I heard screaming coming from the Maze entrance. I darted over there, with all kinds of horrible thoughts running through my head. What happened? Did she stung? I gulped as the worst thought entered my mind. Please tell me she wasn't dead. I don't know what I'd do with myself if she was gone. C'mon Newt. Don't think like that. She's okay. I tried to calm myself down. I made my way through the crowd of Gladers to see Minho crouching on the ground.
"I'm so sorry, Newt. I couldn't stop the Griever. I tried my hardest," Minho emphatically tried to comfort me.
He was crouching in front of Ella's still and bloody body. My heart nearly stopped and I couldn't breathe.
" W-what happened? " I asked terrified of his answer.
" She got stung. She isn't dead, do calm down a little, " He replied.
" Calm down? You want me to calm down? My bloody girlfriend got stung and there's a good possibility that she'll die! Don't tell me to calm down!" I screamed. I was already loosing it. During all of my screaming , I didn't realize they had taken her to the Med Jacks hut. I gave Minho a death glare and ran in suit of Clint and Jeff. I walked in and my heart shattered even more. Ella looked so pale, almost if she's dead. I pulled up a chair next to her side and placed her hand in mine.
" I love you Ella," I said quietly as I choked on my tears.
I've been in this room for two weeks. Nothing had changed with Ella and Clint said the he didn't think she would ever wake up. I didn't want to believe him. I couldn't. She promised she would always come back to me. I felt a hand on my shoulder breaking me out of my thoughts. It was Minho.
"Hey," He began.
" I trusted you," I said, my voice void of any emotions. My happiness left when Ella got stung.
"I know. I'm sorry. There wasn't anything that I could have shucking done."
" You promised me you'd keep her safe. That you would let nothing happen to her."
I was blaming everything on him. I wanted him to feel bad. I wanted him to feel like I was feeling right now. Numb.
" And you broke it," I said.
" Yeah, but I didn't break mine," Ella's voice startled me. In an instant she was in my arms. I held her as if she'd leave me forever.
"Newt, I saw us before the Maze," she smiled.
I nodded for her to continue not trusting my voice.
" We were together before like I knew. I remember our first date. You were so nervous but I loved you for it anyway. You took me ice skating. You had no idea how to but you took me knowing that I loved it. We skated the whole night despite how many times I had to help you up. It was perfect. And after that you walked me up to my door. I was about to walk inside when you pulled me back and crashed your lips onto mine. It was our first kiss," she said.
I loved her so much. I just wish I could remember us before the Maze. I placed my lips onto her's and kissed her with as much passion as possible.
"I love you," I mumbled against her lips.
" I love you too," she relpied.
