Newt's POV

Today was the day a new greenie came up from the box. He'd probably be bloody scared and shocked like Tommy was. I would love to see him face plant the ground like Tommy did. That would be hilarious.

"You showing the new Greenie around today Newt?" Chuck asked me. There was already a crowd gathered around the box. "Yup, Alby put me on it." I explain. Chuck nods.
"I have a weird feeling" he confessed.
"About what?" I questioned.
"I don't know. The new greenie I suppose. Feel like somethings going to be different" he shrugged and went off to Minho.

I pondered his thoughts for a moment. Could something be different? I don't think so but now that Chuck mentioned it, I can't seem to get it out of my head. Suddenly the alarm from the box screeched, grabbing everyone's attention.

A few minutes later and the box finally arrives at the top. The doors slowly opened. Everyone gasped as they saw the greenie laying there, unconscious. It was a shucking girl. A beautiful one at that. Endless sexual comments and wolf whistles rang through the crowd of horny guys.

As the girl started to wake, I backed the crowd up so that she wouldn't freak out. She rubbed her gorgeous eyes and adjusted to the light. I jumped down into the box and bent down next to her. She flinched and back into the box's corner, knees to her chest, shaking.

"Hey love, it's alright. We're not going to hurt you, promise." I soothed her anxiety. She relaxed a little but still on edge. "My names Newt. I'm going to show you around this place ok?" I smiled, hoping to calm her. She just nodded slightly.

My hand stretched out to her. She hesitated for a moment but looked into my eyes. I nodded reassuringly and she gave a somewhat trusting look. She placed her soft hand onto mine. "See I don't bite" I joked. She smiled slightly. "Bloody hell that's a gorgeous smile" I breathe, not meaning to say it out loud. I blush as I realised I did. Greenie quietly giggled.

I helped her out the box, hand still in mine. As soon as she got a clear view of the glade and the rest of the guys, she flinched again. I could tell she was a shy person, quite adorable. Every pair of eyes were in her, making her feel uncomfortable. She then proceeded to hide behind me, clinging to my shirt.

I chuckled at her cuteness. "Nobody's going to hurt you love. I give you my word" I promised her. She nodded but still didn't appear from behind me. Thomas and Chuck approached us.
"Hey Newt, where's the greenie?" Tommy asked. I motioned that she was behind me. Chuck chuckled.

He peeked around me. Greenie cowered a little, tightening her grasp on my shirt. "Hi I'm Chuck" he introduced softy. Greenie looked at Chuck for a moment before slightly coming around, but still behind me. "Trust me green bean, everyone here's rather nice, apart from Gally but don't worry about him, he's a slinthead." Chuck explained.

Greenie smiled lightly. Chuck grinned at how he made her smile. "She seems to like you Newt" Thomas chuckled. I smirked, holding her hand. "Does she have a name?" Chuck asked. I turned to Greenie for an answer. She thought about it for a moment but shrugged sadly.

"It's alright love. You'll remember soon enough" I told her. She nodded understandly.
"Not much of a talker are ya?" Tommy smiled.
She hid behind me fully again, clearly embarrassed. "She's just shy Tommy. I don't blame her" I said, giving her small hand a squeeze. She squeeze back, which surprised me.

"Anyway, Imma take her for the tour" I informed the guys. They nodded and left. "Bye Greenie" Chuck smiled. Greenie have a shy wave. I chuckled and led her to the gardens were I would start the tour.

She relaxed a bit when the crowd dispersed. Once the tour was done, I took her up to the watch tower, where we talked, well it was just me, and stargazed until it was dinner time. "You coming to dinner?" I asked. She shook her head. "I understand, the first day can be quite overwhelming. I'll be back soon then" I grinned and she nodded with a smile.

I arrived at dinner and sat with Tommy and Chuck. "So the new girl huh?" Tommy smirked at me. "Yeah what about her?" I asked defensively. "Nothing, you just seem to like her...a lot" he trailed off innocently. I blushed slightly. "Can we not talk about this" I huff, on the brink of laughing.

"She seems nice though" Chuck pointed out.
"Yeah she is" I smiled as I thought of her.
"She talked to you?" Chuck asked gobsmacked.
"Nah, but I don't mind." I explained
"You're lucky y'know" he chuckled.
"Why?" I replied curiously.
"Well you're the only one she truly seems to trust. You have a special connection with her that no one else has." He explained.
"It's called love Chuck" Tommy laughed.
"Shut up Tommy" I shot back, but there was truth in what both of them said.

Me and Greenie did have a special connection. I did kinda like her. She was beautiful, adorably shy and lovely. The list was endless really. Even though I hadn't heard her voice, I could imagine that it was just as gorgeous as her. I finished my food and headed back to Greenie just like I said.

I climbed up the ladder and found Greenie lent on the rail and looking around the glade. The moonlight reflected on her face in a way that made her look like an angel. "Hey love" I spoke softly. She turned and smiled. I sat down and she joined me. "Brought you something" I grinned, giving her a cookie that I sneaked out behind Frypan. She smiled even more.

"Thank you" she finally spoke. Bloody hell she spoke. Her voice was even more incredible than I could've imagined. It was like honey. I stared wide eyed at her. "For what the cookie?" I joked. She giggled and I swear to high heaven, it was the best thing I had ever heard.

She shook her head. "For being my friend. You helped me through all this and I really appreciate it Newt. Plus you got me a cookie which was sweet" she smiled. My heart was going to burst out of my chest. "Well I'm just glad you trusted me." I said to her. She nodded, breaking the cookie in half. She held one half out to me, I chuckled and accepted it.

When our cookies were gone, she cuddled into my side. I tensed at first but soon relaxed, wrapping my arms around her. "I don't want to freak you out love but bloody hell you're beautiful" I sigh dreamily. She giggled.

"You're quite handsome too Newt" she smiled. We stayed like this for a while, just talking and enjoying each other's company. "Hey Newt" she said. "Yeah what's up love?" I asked.
"Y/N. That my name" she giggled.
"Beautiful name for a beautiful girl" I smirk.
Y/N blushed and cuddled into me more. She yawned and closed her eyes. I laid her down so that her head was in my lap. I stroked her hair until she fell asleep. "Goodnight Y/N." I whisper kissing her hand.
