Save Me. - Finding Newt/Newt x reader

Chapter 1

Thomas's POV

I stared across the ocean as I sat beside Minho. We were eating our daily lunch that was prepared for everyone. I thought about Teresa and how much I missed her, and then my mind trailed off to Newt, my best friend. Watching him die will always replay in my mind like a horrific nightmare that could make you scream and cry in your sleep. I thought about the glade, how happy everyone seemed until everything started going wrong; I thought about our journey through the scorch, when we lost Winston; and I thought about the story Vince told us last night, about someone like me who could cure the flare. He said he wasn't sure if the story was true, but there were rumors of a girl who could cure dead cranks... and then my mind went back to my best friend Newt. If only- "Hey shank." Mihno's voice snapped me out of my thoughts. "Yeah what's up?" I mumbled as I shoveled some mashed potatoes into my mouth. "If we could've done anything to save Newt, I would've done it, but there was nothing we could do," he said and put a hand on my shoulder, squeezing it tightly before letting his hand drop back to his lap. "Do you think the story Vince told us is true?" I asked as I continued to stare across the ocean as if something new would come. I heard Mihno take a deep breath then sigh. "I wouldn't bet on it but... I don't know, maybe. Ask Jorge, he'd know better than I would," he responded. So I got up and walked to where Jorge was laying in a hammock and reading a book.

"Jorge, is the story about the girl like me true?" I asked and that sparked his and Brenda's attention quickly. "Oh it's true, Hermano, I've met her myself. Though.. I wouldn't be sure she's still alive," he said. I noticed Brenda now staring at the ground. "Did you know her?" I asked Brenda and she nodded as she looked up at me. "Her name was (y/n), we protected her from WCKD until one day she was just.. gone. No trace of her anywhere, no body, no footprints. She just... vanished," I heard a sigh after that and turned back to Jorge. "Maybe she's out there... or maybe WCKD killed her, but either way, she's not here." He turned back to his book and I stormed off. She has to be alive.

I ranted to Mihno about everything on my mind and told him all that Jorge and Brenda had said. "Well, look," he said while rummaging through the drawers in his hut, "I'm not about to go on a lifelong journey looking for a girl who's probably dead, alright? It's just not gonna happen," he said then pulled out a pair of socks which I assume he was looking for. I stared at the ground in thought. "I'm going for a run, try not to think too much," he said then jogged out. I guess he's right.
