My Glue (A Newt Fanfic)

Wake Up call

I woke up in Newt's arms exactly how we fell asleep. His hair was ruffled and sticking up in places.

"Good morning Newt." I said softly not wanting to startle him.

"Good morning Miranda. How did you sleep?"

"Better with you here." I smirked knowing that it would bring a smile to his face. He smiled and looked into my eyes.

Next thing I know Minho comes bursting through the door, he must have a key, and has a giant smirk across his face. I jump out of the bed starting to explain but then realize I'm in Newt's shirt and he is shirtless. I feel my face go red and immediately stop talking.

"Well, well, well. Looks like you two had some fun last night." Minho's smile gets even bigger and Newt can be seen getting embarrassed.

"Minho no. I swear if you say anything to anyone I will hurt your shuck face." Newt looks almost scared that Minho will tell the whole Glade.

"Okay, okay. I won't. Your dirty secret is safe with me. But Alby wants to start her tour and wants you to organize the party tonight for our Greenie." Minho wasn't smiling but he still sounded like a smart ass.

I walked to where I put my clothes last night and changed. Giving Newt his shirt back made me smile that I even wore it. I admired his body again before he put his shirt back on. We were both already so Newt walked with me to go see Alby.

"Hey guys. Heard from Minho that you two had an eventful night?" Alby raised his eyebrows in question. I shook my head no and he seemed to understand.

"Well Newt you better go get started with your planning. Come on Miranda we'll start your tour with some introductions and our rules." Alby ushered me to start walking towards the box.

"So you pretty much have heard most of everything from Newt but I'm gonna tell you again. Do your part, never hurt another glader, and never leave those doors and into the maze unless you are a Runner. We have the deadheads, homestead, gardens, and a bunch of other stuff. The jobs are stuff like gardeners, slicers, builders, cooks, med-jacks, baggers, Runners, and a few others. You will try out for them and then the keepers will decide which you are best at and then that will be your job from then on. Get everything?" Alby looked at me. I shook my head yes and we started walking around.

"So Runners can go out? Why? And what's out there?" I asked. I really wanted to know why I had to be stuck here.

"Because they are the best of the best. Out there is the Maze and they have to survive through the day and map the whole thing. There are different sections. They look for a way out. I think this wraps up you tour so you can go do whatever you want." Alby said as he patted my back and walked away clearly done with the subject.

I looked around trying to find Newt but he was nowhere in sight. So I walked to the forest and wandered around there for a while. It was so peaceful. I liked the lack of noise except for a few bugs. I climbed a tree and sat at the base of a branch against the trunk. I dozed off for a bit but woke up to a strange thought.

I want to be a Runner.
