Untitled Part 4

(Real quick, you've been in the Glade and you know the place like the back of your hand)

Your POV (Part 4)

"I don't see why I just become a runner! I'm perfectly capable!" I rambled. "Knife." Newt handed me a short black throwing knife.

"Darling, you just got hear and I won't let you get into danger." Newt said.

"Whatever. I think all you boys are to protective." Someone laughed behind me. I turned, it was that jerk Gally. "What do you want Gally?"

"I want to see if I can beat you." He answered.

"At what?" I asked.

"Knife throwing." I laughed. I could beat anyone at knife throwing.

"I don't think that is the best idea." I looked to Newt.

"Come one, Newt." I looked at him with wide eyes.

"Fine." He gave in. I smiled.

"Gentlemen first?" I tossed Gally the knife. Grabbing the hilt he started to walked to the target I had set up. He tossed the knife and I hit slightly of center.

"Shuck!" He yelled.

"Mmmmhhhhh." He walked over and pulled out the knife and handed it to me. I throw it and it landed in the exact middle. Gally stomped away.

"Y/N?" I looked at Newt.

"Yup?"

"I was wondering if...if maybe, you know." He looked at me.

"No not really."

"Would you like to take a walk with me after dinner?" He was rubbing the back of his neck.

"Sure."

"Really?"

"Yeah." He smiled. A sweet, relaxed smile.

Dinner was good we had burgers and fries. I sat down between Thomas and Newt. "Y/N, can I talk to you?" Thomas looked worried when he said this.

"Yeah, sure." I responded. We walked just out of earshot of the others. "What's up?"

"So I've seen you and Newt are getting really close." Great over protective brother mode.

"Yeah. Why is that a problem?"

"Well, just be careful. Don't do anything you're going to regret."

"Like what. You know me, I won't do anything I'll regret."

"You promise?" He was being to uptight.

"Yes, yes, yes, I promise. But I'll have you know I'm going on a walk with Newt tonight." He looked at me with a strange look.

"Y/N!"

"You can't stop me. I'm 17. I can take care of myself." I saw his face relax a little.

"Fine. But remember your promise!"

"I will!" Turned and walked back to the tables.

"You okay, love?" Newt said when I sat down.

"I'm fine. Ready?" He looked at me with narrow eyes.

"Yeah." We both stood and started walking towards the Deadheads. "Y/N?"

"Yes, Newt?" He put his arm around my shoulders. Which shocked me a little but I quickly got used to it.

"I think I... I think I'm in love with you." I looked at him.

"I think I'm in love also... With you." All in one motion I turned and kissed him. A kiss of love and passion. I put my arms around his neck while he put his around my waist. We parted for breath. "I know I'm in love." We laughed. I grabbed his hand and pulled him more into the woods. We stopped and sat down in front of a tree. His arm was around my shoulders. I adjusted myself just a little so if he kissed me it wouldn't be awkward. "What time is it?" I was dark and I knew we couldn't stay out here the whole night people would start to wonder.

"10:28"

"Okay." He leaned down and kissed me a short loving kiss.

"We should go." He said.

"Yeah, we should." We both sat up. And started to walk back to the Homestead, holding hands. I let go of his hand when Thomas walked up to us. He looked surprised but soon recovered.

"So did you two have fun?" Thomas asked.

"No not really. I mean we did absolutely nothing." Newt said sarcastically.

"Yeah. It was really boring." I agreed.

"Fine be that way." Thomas said.
