The next day you set off. Clint was silent, probably thinking of the journey ahead. What if you couldn't find him? You would, you knew you would.
You found yourself helping the runners with their mapping. The room they built was a mess, and it was your job to fix it. A runner came in, panting. Newt. "Hey Y/N, I have huge news, give me some paper." You handed him a sheet. He drew out his whole section.
It seemed as though all the pieces to a puzzle came together. With that, he left. "Newt! Wait!" He looked surprised that you would call him. It's not like you guys didn't talk, but he was always with Alby, and you with Minho. "How'd you do that?" You asked.
"I just remember every route, and I had to put it all together."
"Then why are you in such a hurry?"
"No reason...I just had...um...I don't really know, actually. It just seemed fit, to leave you to your job."
"You know I finished an hour ago right? I was waiting for you to finish writing so I could close up."
"Oh, then would you like to grab a bite?"
That's when you guys started talking more. You'd just see each other, talk a bit, and go on your way. Soon enough, the conversations became deeper and you both were amazing friends. The closer you got, the more you realized how much you liked him.
He used to come up behind you, and rap his strong arms around you waist. You'd turn around, and he'd let go. One day, you turned straight into his lips. He kissed you, until it felt like you would collapse. Your bodies were pressed against each other. That's when you officially started dating.
You were awakened by Clint pulling you along. He was telling you something, but your vision was blurry and your head hurt. He sat you under a tree, and everything came to you. You both were walking, when a bullet hit your side.
You hadn't believed that the cranks were still so violent. Most, were hidden, dead, but never smart enough to hit someone. "Clint, what just happened?"
"Well, I was just telling you about the last few smart cranks, and how they lived in this area at this time. I heard noise, tried to make you hurry, but you were so caught up in a daze, you got shot. Now, we're hiding so they don't come and eat us. "
"Sorry," he just helped you wrap your wound. "It only grazed me, so I'm good, we can—"
"—shh." You heard voices nearby.
"We got one. Think it's dead? It better not be, 'cause he'll be mad if the girl is. "
He?
You guys were really close to the area he would be in, could the he be him? You guys didn't want to stay and find out.
Then you heard a voice, "you shanks don't have a clue, you already that far gone?" It was a British voice, but still had that crazy tone. "Those slinttheads are just waiting for us to leave. We won't though, so just come out Y/N, Clint."
Newt. Why did he have to be with these cranks.
Tears formed in your eyes. All the memories resurfaced. Everything you'd been through. You'd known him before the maze, and again in the maze you came together again.
Newt brought you to the edge of the glade, and as you rounded to corner, he brought his lips to yours. When he pulled away, you were out of breath, "I'm sorry, but I really like you, and you make me feel like there is hope." He looked into your eyes, and so much sadness washed upon you. He had been trapped here before you had, and you know how sad he probably felt. You were the same way. "We'll get out of here...together," and you said something you probably shouldn't have, but it made him look so much happier. "I will get you home, I promise."
The sad thing, was Thomas said the same thing to chuck, and when you heard him say it, you knew he would be the real hero.
