*your pov*
My breath hitched as he lifted the arm wrapped around me to my face, his long fingers tracing my jaw and under my ear into my hair line, cupping my face as we kissed.
     By this point I had closed my eyes and taken in everything that was happening. He was kissing me. I was kissing him, it seemed wrong, but right at the same time.

     I pulled away, breathing just a bit heavier than I was before. I felt my face heat up, and it was like my ears were hotter than the sun itself.  His breath was a bit heavier than before too, his hair still covered his eyes and, from what I could see, his cheeks were tinted pink.

     I scrambled to my feet, and shook a little in my place,
"I- I am SO sorry! I- well, um,"
     I looked at my hands as I tried to find my words, my face, if possible, grew even redder at my attempt to try and explain myself,
     "I shouldn't have done that, I mean, we can't be thinking about that right now we have to focus on-"
Newt had climbed onto his good foot and towered over me now, his arms slightly rested on my upper arms as I rambled, "Hey, calm down Y/n."
I flinched and backed away a little  from the contact, "I can't, Newt, I'm supposed to be top runner, it's my job to map that damned maze, and if my feelings for you get in the way-"
I cut myself off again, realising what I had just said, if he somehow hasn't figured it out by now, he definitely knew I liked him now.
My eyes went wide and my hands flew to my mouth, his eyes held a slight concern but true compassion as they bore right into mine,
"Calm down, Love. It's ok to think that, I feel the same way. You can still map the maze, because you're very smart and very strong, you won't let a wandering thought cloud you're purpose for being out there right?"
His voice was a little stern, and his grip had returned to my arms, but this time it was a little tighter, as of he anticipated my answer.

     Slowly, I looked down at our feet, staring at his wrapped ankle, I had been the reason that happened, and am the reason it's healing properly.

     His fingers squeezed my arms, as a way to grab my attention again, and I looked up, and strait into his eyes,
"Right?" He asked.
I nodded my head in agreement and a slight smile played at my lips,
"Right."
