The Maze Runner Imagines *requests open*

Newt [21] {REQUEST}

Requested by Ellalouise1097 : it's set in the scorch trials, where I'm part of another maze, when all the other boys walking in [newt, thomas etc] I liked newt and was checking him out, one of my friends noticed and kept teasing me, newt felt the exact same and Minho was teasing him. Something bad happens like they take me away just as me and newt get close.

Don't forget me (unedited)
Ella's POV

We had been in the facility for just over a day. Those weird people had rescued us from the Maze and brought us here, but we still knew almost nothing about what was going on. 

The past few days had been a blur. It went from discovering a way out of the Maze to actually trying to escape to flying in a helicopter to this place to being treated like actual human beings for the first time in our lives. The only detail I truly remember was that Ava woman shooting herself in the head. Though, it wasn't a very prominent thing in my mind.

We were brought to the cafeteria-like room to have another meal and hopefully have out names called by Janson. 

"It looks like they have more kids coming in today."

"Ooh, they're hot."

"Yeah, but what if they're total assholes?"

"True, true."

Normally, I would join in on Callie and Kyla's eccentric conversations, but one of the boys from the new group is really, really hot. 

"Dude, why are you staring at the tall one with the blonde hair?"

I almost don't hear Kyla talking to me.

"What was that?"

Callie has trouble controlling her laughter and Kyla rolls her eyes at me.

"Oh, nothing. Just asking you why you're staring at that guy so much."

I quickly look at one of the other tables, but my eyes wander back to the boy who came in with those other boys.

"Pfft, who said I was staring at him?" I'm obviously not convincing them.

"Yeah, sure. You're totally not staring at him right at this moment in time."

"Nope, definitely not."

I can tell Kyla is rolling her eyes at me again and Callie just bursts out laughing like a hyena on fire.

Callie's loud, boisterous laugh draws a lot of attention to our table, and the group of boys who entered a few minutes ago now looks at us confusedly from their table. 

The hot blonde boy catches my stare and I immediately look away, but glance at him every few seconds. Every time I look up, I find that he's still looking at me. I smile at him shyly and the corners of his lips move up just slightly. 

"Did he just smile at you?! He totally just smiled at you!"

"Shut up, Kyla!" 

"Why are you still staring at him? This is actually getting kind of creepy."

I turn my entire body in her direction with a bright red blush on my cheeks.

"It is not creepy."

"Yes, it is."

"No, it's not."

"Yes, it totally is."

"No, it's not. Now leave me alone, I want to continue staring at this boy who has graced my eyes with his handsomeness."

Callie's laughter had finally died down, but it came back just as loud and obnoxious after my comment on this boy's handsomeness. 

I turn my gaze back toward the boy and see that he has a bright red blush on his cheeks and it seems as though he's being harassed by the raven-haired boy sitting next to him. 

"Settle down, settle down. We will now be calling names so listen carefully."

"Adam, Sierra, Leo, Ryan, Megan, Claire, Andy, Evan, and Callie."

Callie quickly stands up and Kyla and I wish her good luck.

I look back to where the blonde boy had been sitting, but see that he's no longer there.

A skinny figure appears in my line of sight and I look up to see that it's the blonde-haired boy.

He sits down and says, "Hi, I'm Newt. What's your name?"

**~*~*~*~*~**

Three days after Newt first introduced himself, two days after I realized that I loved him, and one day after Kyla's name was called, Newt finds me in the cafeteria and asks me to sit with him and the rest of his friends. I say yes, and he takes my hand and leads me to the table he first sat at when he arrived.

He introduces everyone and has me sit next to him with Thomas and Minho across from us and a few other boys next to Thomas and Minho. 

"I wonder what happens when they call your name."

Minho doesn't hesitate to respond to what I say.

"Well, obviously you go stand by that door over there."

"Minho! Don't be so rude to her!"

I giggle under my breath. It's cute seeing him stand up for me.

"You're just like my friend Kyla."

"Isn't she that girl who got called up yesterday?"

"Yeah, she is."

I move slightly closer to Newt, taking comfort in being close to him. I really miss Kyla and Callie. They've been with me from the very beginning and now I can't help but feel as though something isn't right here and that I need to save them.

"You okay?"

Newt's voice is quiet so the others can't hear him.

"Yeah, I just have a bad feeling about this place."

He nods slightly and pulls me closer to him so that there's no space between us on the hard bench.

There a few snickers from the other side of the table, but I ignore them and focus on Newt's hand in mine. At least for right now, I'll be okay as long as Newt's here with me.

"Settle down, now. Listen carefully for your names."

"John, Austin, Sabrina, Jay, Hannah, Ella, Ky..."

I don't hear the rest of the names he says, it's like there are ear plugs in my ears, muffling the sound around me. 

I slowly stand up, feeling shocked. Newt stares up at me, obviously not happy about this. His hand slips away from mine and I brush my arm against his shoulder.

Just before I walk away, I lean down and whisper in his ear.

"Don't forget me."
