Alternative book to Scorch Trials - Newt x reader

Chapter 2: Help

A few months had past. Everything was the same as always, Teresa and I recently became doctors and moved to the 'Last City' with Dr. Paige and Dad.

We just recently heard that the Right Arm took some immunes from the train that was taking them here. I knew what that meant, their trying to get Minho. I was actually kind of happy. If they came here, I could go back with them. Be gone from this horrible place.

"Dr. Y/N, your presence is needed in the meeting room," my assistant, Ashlynn, told me.

"Thank you for the information, Ashlynn, may you come with me there?" I hate talking so formal, but Dad made me do so.

"Of course, Dr. Y/N," I also hate people talking formal to me.

In the meeting, I stayed quiet as usual. Teresa gave a speech, arguing with the other important doctors. After the meeting, Dr. Paige, Teresa, and I stayed in the room.

"That was a good speech, Teresa," Dr. Paige complimented her. "Y'know, Y/N, you could learn a lot from your sister here."

"I know, but I just like to be quiet."

We were called to one of the patient's room. Teresa's patient had become a crank, she was upset because the two had built a bond.

Dr. Ava came," It's ok Teresa, you can't save everyone." She turned her head to me, "Harper, tomorrow I will need to talk to you." I nodded my head, indicating I understood.

"Ok, girls, you two are dismissed for the rest of the day."

Teresa and I left the building to go to our shared apartment. We were waiting to cross the road, when we saw Thomas. We looked at each other and crossed the road. We looked for him, finally catching up to him.

"Thomas! Stop!" Teresa yelled.

He turned around. "Yes Teresa?"

"What are you doing here? It's dangerous for you to be here!" I shot back.

"Do you ever regret what you guys did?" he glared at the both of us.

I did, but Teresa would be upset if I said I did, so I stayed quiet. "We did what we thought was right, Thomas."

Suddenly I was knocked out, Teresa probably didn't notice because I was a few feet behind her.

I finally woke up," What? Why am I here?!" I was tied up to a chair, Teresa was next to me and also tied up. I noticed everyone glaring at me.

"You are going to be helping us," a new guy said. "Who's he, and what does he mean by helping you guys?" I asked, clueless to what was going on.

"You're helping us get in the building and save Minho." a familiar voice spoke. I looked at him, Newt. I missed him so much, he probably didn't feel the same way. They told us what I had to do.

"Ok," I agreed to their terms.

"Fine, if Y/N's doing it, so am I." Teresa reluctantly agreed.

We both took scalpels and took off the trackers from their necks.

I was taking Newt's tracker off while we talked.

"Newt, I'm sorry."

"Did you ever regret it?"

"I did, as soon as I stepped foot on the berg, I regretted it."

"Why'd you do it then?"

"I-I.. I honestly don't know."

After I took off the tracker, we looked into each others eyes. I was lost in his deep, brown eyes. I realized I was drooling over him."GAH!" I yelled as I fell off my chair. He helped me up," You ok, Y/N?"  I stared at him again, man did I want to kiss those beautiful lips of him. He probably noticed how I was watching him because he looked at me confused, "Uh..Y/N. I'm just going over there."

Brenda walked over to me," Dang, you've got it bad for Newt. Anyways, I came here because I forgive you."

"R-really?" I pulled her into a hug.

"Yeah I forgive you."

Newt's POV

I walked over to Frypan and Gally. They were putting a napkin on the back of their necks, to lessen the bleeding.

"So, what's your history with that girl, Y/N?" Gally asked, pointing to her. She was talking with Brenda, smiling and laughing.

"They apparently used to date, before the maze. She found out when Teresa got her memories back and told her." Frypan interrupted me.

"Why'd she go back with WICKED then?"

"I dunno, maybe it's because Teresa's her sister or Janson's her dad. Y/N didn't tell me while we were talking."

"You guys would look cute together." Gally chuckled. Frypan joined him. I ignored them and walked to Thomas.
