The Author and the Auror

Chapter 5

After a few hours Tina started to become worried, she figured Newt just wanted some personal space after their failed kiss, but hours avoiding her became worrisome and obnoxious. So of course she decided to go down and find him.

"All I Did was drop a book was it really that terrifying?" She mumbled to herself as she descended down the ladder.

Newts little workshop was a little different from when she was last in here. For one thing papers covered in Newts curly handwriting cluttered his desk. His bed looked like it hadn't been slept in, in days. Which was understandable because he's been sleeping with her.

She cringed, that sounded wrong in her head. Queenie would giggle and tease her all day if she had heard it.

Tina relaxed, she wasn't here though so she could think the most inappropriate things and it wouldn't matter. But of course she wouldn't, she was a proper women after all.

She studied a few of the papers, but she felt like she was invading his privacy and decided to leave them alone. She looked up where the picture of Leta lestrange used to hang. But no longer was the beautiful women there.

Instead, it was her.

She didn't remember her picture being taken, especially not at the blind pig either so this one must have been done with magic.

She had to admit she looked really good in this picture for once. "Why does he have it hanging up though?" She asked herself

Almost as if on cue Newt walked into the workshop. He had shed his coat and vest leaving him in his white undershirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows. His suspenders no longer over his shoulders draped down with his pants making him look the most at home and comfortable she had ever seen him.

"Tina, I uh didn't know you were in here." He said his eyes occasionally moving from her to the picture on the wall. He blushed pink.

"I came to check on you, you've been down here for hours. I should have knocked this was inconsiderate of me." She said moving to the ladder.

"No no it's fine you can stay, I didn't realize I had been down here that long."

That was a lie he knew he was down there for awhile, but was too shy to admit so.

"Interesting picture you've got there."

He blushed, "sorry I can take it down if it makes you uncomfortable."

She shook her head, "no I'm flattered."

He smiled a bit, "It's just I missed you a lot and, I've never been lonely before. My creatures have always been able to give me the best company, but after I left New York I found myself extremely lonely and missing you."

She brushed his shaggy hair out of his eyes. "You're courting me remember?"

He looked a little confused, "Well yes why?"

She leaned in a little bit, "Then why haven't you kissed me yet?"

"Because you terrify me Miss Goldstein."

She laughed, I promise I'm not that scary."

"I'll take your word for it." He replied, before leaning down and closing the gap between them.

As their lips pressed together for the first time, Tina felt as if she didn't exist. There is no way on earth someone could feel this amazing.

And all they were doing was kissing.

Well at least at this point it was probably more then just kissing.

Her hands had somehow found their way into tangling his messy waves. And his arms had managed to wrap around her small waist.

When both became in need of air they broke apart.

She slid her hand to clasp together and rest behind his neck.

"Tina your absolutely marvelous." He whispered kissing her forehead.

She smiled shyly, "you flatter me."

"I speak the truth."

"I'm not as great as Queenie though she's lovely and beautiful and charming."

He smiled, "I don't think I would ever be able to court someone like her, I mean Queenie is great, but just... not my type."

"Oh yeah what is your type then?" She asked

"Laid back, hard working, adventurous, you." He said cheekily.

Tina laughed, "You're not as shy as you appear to be."

He blushed and looked down, "Well I just have to become comfortable with someone."

She dropped her hands and laced them with his, "Newt.. we live on opposite sides of the world I don't see how this could possibly work out after Grindelwald is captured."

His smile dropped, "Yes well I was avoiding this conversation..."

"It needs to be talked about."

"I can't bare to be separated like that again from you." He said almost pathetically.

"I have to work Newt, and so do you. And you can't exactly move because of your publisher." She explained. "And I cant move because of work and Queenie."

His eyes looked like they were welling up with tears but he refused to let them fall. "I can't imagine spending my life with anyone else though..."

"Oh please Newt there are plenty of charming adventurous girls in England you could easily find someone to be with you."

"I don't think any of them will arrest me though, or help me save my creatures, or get sent to be executed with me. Or bloody kiss me."

She giggled at the last one, "Tina we are meant to be together I swear it. Please you have to feel the same way." He pleaded.

This time Tina felt her eyes wet with tears. She was shaking a bit too. How could they become so unlucky? She thought. Falling in love with someone thousands of miles away from you.

"I do." She managed to say, "I really do feel the same."

He sighed and hugged her tightly, "I would quit my job in a heart beat." He said

Tina shook her head, "are you crazy? No you can't."

He sighed, and just held her tightly.

"Let's just enjoy our time together find Grindlewald and then we can figure out our love life." She softly suggested.

"Love life?" He asked a little bit of a teasing tone to his voice.

Tina blushed, "Well what do you want me to call it? A like-life?"

He laughed and scooped her up in a bridal position. "No love life is good,"

She smiled, "good I was hoping we wouldn't have to call it a like life."

He shook his head and kissed her softly again, "now that would be impossibly difficult seeing as I can't seem to stop thinking of you."

She blushed, "must be some boring thoughts."

He blushed, "Well...."

She giggled, "You can stop there."

He looked a little relieved and smiled at her. And nothing could seem more perfect then this moment right now.

Bad Newt 😂😂😂😂 oh well he is a human after all. But anyways please enjoy.
