Just Give Me a Reason

Thanks for the idea heythereimsamsam

Newt's POV

"Newt? What's wrong, baby?"

I looked up at my brown eyed boyfriend, tears cascading down my face. I held out my arms for an loving embrace. Thomas and I hugged for a while before we sat down on our couch and held each other.

"Tommy," I asked softly. "Do you really think this relationship is good enough?"

Thomas looked at me with confusion, he brushed a stray piece of blonde hair behind my ear and tilted my head up so I was looking at his face.

"Of course. You know I love you more than anything. I don't understand where all of this is coming from."

"I-I..." I trailed off, not able to come up with an answer.

"Don't let your mind tell you anything else, baby. We still have everything together." Thomas smiled, kissing me softly.

I broke the kiss. "But sometimes we get in fights, or I mess up on something and-"

Thomas placed a finger over my lips, silencing me. "Is this because of those dreams you've been having?"

My eyes widened and I started to tear up again. I nodded and pulled Thomas into a hug.
The dreams have been awful. They're of Thomas telling me he doesn't love me or need me anymore. Then he leaves me forever, finding someone new and moving on in his life while I stay right where I was, waiting for him to come back for me when I know he won't.

"You know I would never leave you, Newt. Give me one reason why I would leave you. You're perfect to me and that's all that matters."

"But, what about my limp? I'm not even close to perfection. I'm not good enough." I say, my lip quivering.

Thomas takes my left hand and holds it up. He points at a shiny piece of fitted metal wrapped around my finger.

"See this, Newt? Remember when I gave you this promise ring? I said that one day I would marry you, no matter of your flaws. You're perfect. I intend to keep that promise."

Thomas kisses my hand and sets it on his leg. I gaze at the ring on his finger, identical to mine. We sat in silence before Thomas spoke up.

"I always thought you would be the one to leave me."

"What?" I said in confusion. "I would never leave you."

"How do you know? You may find someone else one day that's better than I am. Someone who can protect you and love you like I never could."

I scooted closer to Thomas, our arms touching. I kissed his temple and hugged him.

"No one is better than you are, Tommy."

He turns his head and connects our lips passionately. We kiss for what seems like forever before we brake away for air.

"Perhaps were both just as broken as each other." I said, snuggling into his side.

Thomas wraps his arm around my shoulders and presses his lips on the top of my head. "We're not broken, Newt. Only bent."

Sorry, it was really short I'll most likely make a part two to equal the shortness. As you can see it was based on Pink's song Just Give Me a Reason. I hope you liked it!
