Girl In The Glade/ Newt fanfiction (The Maze Runner)

Part 18

Next morning I woke up from Minho's quiet laugh.

"Why are you laughing Minho? What's wrong with you?" I asked him quite confused.

Then I realised that I was laying in one bed together with Newt. I felt myself blushing.

I looked at Newt and saw him looking at me and smiling. Then he turned to Minho.

"Get out of here shuck-face," he said smiling.

"Okay, okay, I'm going," Minho said and turned away.

"Oh, I almost forgot," he suddenly turned back, "Alby was asking for you, Newt. Go and find him after breakfast."

As he was closing the door he turned to us one more time and said. "Ah, guys, you're so cute."

"Minho," I and Newt both yelled at him and Minho left the room still smiling.

Then Newt turned to me.

"Good morning, love," he said and took a strand of hair out of my face.

Love? Did he just call me 'love'? I felt myself blushing.

"Morning," I said, rubbed the sleep out of my eyes and yawned.

Our faces were very close while we were looking at each other and it made me quite uncomfortable so I looked away.

We laid there in silence for a moment.

"Okay," he said while getting up, "I'm going to bring you some breakfast."

He went to the door and smiled at me sweetly before heading out.

As he was out of the room a huge smile spread across my face and I danced a little happy dance while still being in my bed. I just felt so indescribably happy. Newt made me feel so happy.

Then a completely new feeling came to me. I felt the urge to be with Newt all the time every day of my life. He was so nice and overprotective and suddenly I found him even more handsome than before. What's happening?

I needed to talk about this to someone. Two people who I trusted the most in the Glade were Minho and Chuck. I decided that after Minho returns from the Maze, I'll talk with him. I could talk with Chuck too but I think that he may be too young to understand this. Wait... Understand what? Ugh... I'm so confused.

After about 10 minutes, Newt came into the room. I bit my lip to hide the smile that had spread across my face. Why was I even smiling?

"Breakfast is served, princess," he said jokingly and handed me my plate.

"Thank you," I said my voice sounding really shy. What the hell? I really don't understand what's happening with me.

He sat down next to me on the bed and we ate silently. He was looking at me all the time but I pretended not to notice and looked at my food while I ate.

After we had eaten, he took my plate and stood up.

"Okay, Elle, I need to go now but I'll definitely come back as soon as I can," he said and smiled.

"Okay," I said quietly and there was a little flash of sadness in his face before he smiled again and left.

Newt

I woke up earlier than other days. Elle was still sleeping. When she woke up last night screaming I almost lost myself. She looked so frightened and it made me feel bad. I wanted to protect this little cutie form everything but I guess I couldn't. It made me sad.

Now she was curled in a little ball, her warm little body pressing against mine, my hands protectively around her. She was breathing peacefully and there was a smile playing around the corners of her lips. Her hair was quite messy and all over the place but I didn't care. She looked happy and safe and it was all that mattered. I wanted to stay with her like that forever.

But then suddenly Minho came in the room. Bloody hell. I sighed to myself and then showed him a gesture to stay quiet.

I huge grin spread across his face. He looked like a high-school girl who had just found out that her best friend was dating someone. But I and Elle weren't dating. We weren't a couple or something like that but I personally really wished that we could be something more than just friends. If we even were friends. I wasn't sure about that because before Elle had gotten stabbed, at that day, she had told me that we wouldn't ever be anything. And she was being very serious then. I was just so...

"What happened here?" Minho asked snapping me out of my thoughts. There was still a huge grin on his face.

"I was just comforting her after a nightmare," I said calmly.

"Yeah, sure," he said not really believing and laughed silently.

Then I felt Elle shiver and looked at her. Her head snapped up as she looked at Minho.

"Why are you laughing Minho? What's wrong with you?" she asked him looking quite confused.

Her cheeks turned bright pink as she looked at me. I smiled. I hadn't noticed before but she had such a cute little nose.

"Get out of here shuck-face," I said to Minho to make him go away.

Soon after, he left, leaving me and Elle alone.

I looked back at Elle and she looked at me.

"Good morning, love," I said to her and took a loose strand of hair out of her face.

She blushed bright pink again. It was quite cute.

"Morning," she said, rubbed her eyes out of sleep and yawned.

We laid looking at each other. Our faces were very close and it made me want to kiss her but that it was too early for that. It could scare her. I eyed every inch of her face, starting with her absolutely stunning blue eyes and ending with her perfectly shaped pink lips.

She turned away and we lay in silence but it wasn't an awkward silence, it was a pleasing silence.

Soon after, I got hungry and decided to get us some food.

"Okay," I said and stood up," I'm going to bring you some breakfast."

I went out of the room stopping in the doorway to smile at her. As I was closing the door I saw a smile appearing on her face and her hands snapping up in happiness. I smiled.

I quickly made it to the Frypan and took two plates of food. As fast as I could, I returned to Elle.

I went into the room and I saw her biting her lip but it didn't stop her from smiling. How cute is that?!

"Breakfast is served, princess," I joked and handed her the plate.

"Thanks," she said shyly.

We ate silently and I couldn't hold myself from looking at her. Every inch of her seemed so perfect and beautiful. I think I'm in love with her.

When we had eaten I took her plate and stood up.

"Okay, Elle, I need to go now but I'll definitely come back as soon as I can," I said and smiled.

"Okay," she said quietly. Why was she acting like that? Maybe she didn't want me to come back? I quickly shook the thought away and gave her a smile.

Then I left.
