I'm a hopeless romantic so I write stories about The Maze Runner's Newt or Thomas Brodie Sangster. Most of them are sweet but some are heartbreaking. Thanks for reading and voting! :)

"Congratulations, the doctor said, walking back into the room after getting the results. I thought I would feel something: happy or sad. But I felt nothing. I felt unsure of how to feel. How else do you react when you find out you're 3 weeks pregnant?
Newt and I had tried for a baby for so long that we sort of lost hope along the way. We weren't sure if it was something we were doing wrong, or if we just weren't meant to have kids. Now, I was just... shocked.
The doctor had given me a book to help guide me through the process, and scheduled another time I would come for a check up with her in a few weeks. It wasn't until I saw Brenda and Sonya waiting for me outside that it seemed to hit. Newt and I were gonna have a baby.
"So, how did it go?" Sonya questioned the second I walked up to her. She was the most excited when I told them that I was going to visit the doctor to get the news. She would be over the moon in a second when I tell her.
"I'm gonna have a baby," I squeaked, covering my smile with both my hands. Sonya almost screamed before jumping up and down a few times in excitement. Brenda wasn't like that, but she still hugged and congratulated me.
The girls walked with me down the road to our apartments still gossiping over the two babies coming- Brenda's and mine. Sonya was ranting on and in about how she was going to plan the baby shower, that I didn't agree to yet- while throwing her arms everywhere in front of her
She suddenly stopped and put her hand over my chest to stop me. "What?"
"How are you gonna tell Newt?" She asked in a nervous tone. He would be excited to hear the news so I wasn't nervous about that. I just wanted to tell him in the perfect way.
I smiled widely when the idea came to me. "I have the perfect idea. You two have to help me."
-----
After telling the girls my idea, they ran around the community to get everything together. It didn't require that much, but they still wanted everything to be special. They also told me to keep out of their way, and get Newt to come where they needed him.
"Come on, handsome. This is gonna be fun," I tugged on Newt's arm while he laid collapsed on me, on the couch. He had a long day today and immediately flopped onto the couch- and me- when he got home.
"No," he whined like a little kid. "I want to go to sleep, love. We can see all our friends tomorrow." His eyes were heavily bagged and closed as he sprawled out on top of me with his head in my neck. As much as I loved being like this with Newt, I needed to take him outside.
"No, we're going. We'll just go for a little while and come home. Alright?" I asked before laughing. "Wow, we really do sound like a married couple."
He chuckled against my chest before sitting up. He leaned in and placed a soft, lingering kiss on my lips. He smirked with his eyes half closed, before rising off the couch and pulling me with him.
When we finally made it outside, I brought him to the center of the community where typical gatherings and parties were held. All of our friends and family were already standing around with drinks in their hands. In the center of all that, was the raging fire made of collected wood found in the woods.
"What's all this?" Newt questioned, one of his arms pointing to the fire and the other wrapped around my waist.
"This is our bonfire. Just like in the maze," I answered and stood with him by the fire. The others were covertly watching us, already knowing the surprise Newt was about to find out.
He chuckled. "In the maze this meant a new greenie was coming up in the box. We'll never have to deal with another scared greenie ever again."
"Yes," I drew out the word, "but this still means a new person is coming. Someone very young, very small, very close to us..." I looked up at his confused face with a smile on mine. It warmed my heart to see Newt when he finally realized what I meant.

His eyes darted to mine, water already filling them. He put both hands on my waist and sewed down at my belly.
"Love... you're pregnant?" I nodded. His face lit up with so much energy, and he lifted me off the ground. "You're pregnant! We're gonna be parents. We're gonna have a family!"
Once he set me down, he kissed me hard enough to knock me two steps backwards. The others cheered and clapped while mentioning Thomas and Brenda's baby too.
We partied that night for a while with many people congratulating us or giving us simple advice to follow. My father was the most happy, since he actually shed a few tears after hugging Newt and I. His mother and father were extremely happy too, and hoped somehow the baby would end up with a British accent to match theirs.
We had the whole community helping us through the pregnancy and the delivery. Other parents came and told us their advice and a few kids took on myself and Brenda's jobs when we could barely walk at the end of the pregnancy.
A little under nine months after the I first found out I was pregnant, I gave birth to a small boy. He had the same milk chocolate brown eyes his father had and the same (Y/H/C) hair as me. We couldn't think of a better way to showcase the friends we've lost and loved than to name him after one of the most influential and missed person : Alby.
