set in the scorch trials movie

you stepped cautiously into the abandoned marketplace. it was dark and musty. all you could hear was the breathing of your fellow ex-gladers.  escaping the maze and the ratman had been such a blur.  marie died along with the other gladers trying to escape, but newt didnt seem all that sad about it.

you stopped avoiding newt. you two grew apart and got over each other. you two would sometimes chat a little, but it would never be anything serious.  you rarely talked. sometimes you questioned whether your feelings for him were still there.

"tom, i have a bad feeling about this." you said under your breath.
"me too. but just one night, then we'll get out of this shuck place." he walked into the darkness.
as you continued to walk you heard minho.
"holy shuck, what is that?" all of a sudden a crank screamed and lunged at minho from the other side of the fence.
"let's get outta here!" you screamed as you all started sprinting to the exit.  you had a knife and gun in hand.  newt's limp made him fall behind, and a crank started gaining behind him.
"newt!" you screamed. you look your gun and shot the crank right in the middle of the head and grabbed newt's hand as you kept running.
"nice shot" he said.
"thanks." you both rushed to exit.
"i'll hold them off!" winston yelled as he shot the cranks.
as you and newt made your way to exit, winston screamed.
"winston!" you yelled, seeing the cranks scratch and and bite him.
"winston, grabbed my hand." newt shouted, holding out his hand.
winston was safe, but the scratch and bites on his body showed that he wouldn't last long.

as you two walked in the desert, winston collapsed.
"winston?" you turned to see him lying on the ground.

"just leave me." he said.
"no winston we can't. i cant do it." you grabbed his hand and cried.
"winston you cant go. not now. not when we escaped from everything. we're going to right arm remember?" you sobbed, and he wiped a tear from your cheek.
"thank you yn, for being the best friend anyone could ever have." he smiled weakly.
"no no no stop talking to me like theyre your last words." you cried.
"they are." he whispered
"please dont leave me." you cried.
"never." he smiled another weak smile.
"you're my hero win. thank you. i'll see you again one day. just you wait." you cried and held his hand to your face.

winston had his last words with all the other gladers and we left without him.

then he talked to newt.
"i want you to listen newt okay?"
newt nodded.
"thank you for being the kindest person i've met. you deserve to be happy. but the only time ive seen you with true happiness was when you were with yn. so please, make amends. you two obviously need each other. i want all my friends to be happy. especially you, you deserve it so much." he smiled.

newt nodded. "i still love her."

winston smiled. "she still loves you too. she told me."

then we heard the piercing gunshot.

"win?" a tear rolled down your cheek.
they all nodded and walked on.

newt hugged you. "it'll be okay. i promise."
you nodded and let out the rest of your tears.
