Shattered Love | Scorch Trials

Forever

  "Love?"

  "Yes, Newt?"

  I stay wrapped up in his arms, fingers playing with the bottom of his shirt as my head rests on his shoulder. He gently rubs my back, releasing stress.

  "There isn't one thing I care more about in this world than you." He says, pecking the top of my head.

  I smile. "I love you. I mean it. No doubts. I love everything about you." I kiss his shoulder and he giggles, which is absolutely adorable.

  Truth is, that was a pretty big deal, saying that. I am not very good with words, not like Newt. Newt has a way to piece them together so perfectly it makes me feel beyond ecstatic. But I can never offer the same, sadly.

  I think about when I first woke up in the Box. Becoming a Glader, not being able to remember anything. I was so scared, terrified. But everything is so different now. There is so much to be afraid of, but right now, in this moment, I feel safe.

  "Can you believe how much has happened?" He asks, intertwining my fingers with his.

  "Hard to," I respond, bringing his hand up and kissing it. "Most of the time, I just try to forget about it."

  "What about those memories you had? About us? Don't forget those. They were bloody adorable." He laughs.

  I chuckle. "I won't. Those memories will last."

  How lucky am I to have such a wonderful person in my life. Through all the sorrow, all the heartbreak, all the troubles, he has been by my side. He knows me like no one else, he was the first one who ever showed me kindness, he is always the last thought on my mind before I fall asleep. I loved everything about him. I love my eyes only when he stares into them. I love my hands only when he holds them. I love my name only when he says it, and my lips when he touches them. I love my life when he is in it. He brings out the best of me. I can't help but smile every time I look at him. I love when he holds me and when my head rests on his chest, listening to his heartbeat. It gives me a sense of security, like as long as I am with him nothing bad will ever happen to me. I wasn't planning on loving him, but I'm happy I do.

  "I can't wait till these trials are over, and we can live in peace together." He whispers.

  "I'm here with you, and that's all that matters." I tell him.

  "No. You don't understand. Olivia, you deserve so much better than this. You deserve a home where you can come home everyday and I'll greet you with a bear hug. And I can take you out to dinner and we can grow old together. We can have little kids that wear us out at the end of the day. I want all of that with you."

  "Newt-"

  "I want to spend every day with you, Olivia. You're what I want to wake up to each and every morning and go to sleep with every single night. I've never wanted anything so badly."

  I know he's telling the truth, and my heart melts.

  "I want that too." I reply.

  "Then lets do it. Lets be together forever after this, love. I am gonna marry you when this is all over, Olivia. I know its not dramatic and I don't have a ring or anything to make it official, and I know we're both so young but this is already a broken world and I can't wait any longer. Please love, please. Be with me forever."

  I sit up and face him, holding his hands. Tears stream down my face, lips breaking into a cheesy smile.

  "Are you sure?" I ask.

  "I've never been so sure about anything in my entire life."

  I nod my head, cup his face in my hands, gently putting my lips on his.

  I pull away, look into his eyes as a grin forming on his beautiful face. I whisper one word, "Yes."
