Digging Deeper (Newt x Reader TMR Fanfiction PART 2)

chapter 5

I remember Newt holding me in his arms, thinking I was dying. Kissing my forehead and crying, not wanting me to leave him. Tears start to build in my eyes as I remember Newt begging me to stay with him. I desperately try to wipe them away.

"Y/N?" I heard Xena call out. "What's wrong? Why are you crying?"

"It's nothing," I said, standing up and running out of the room. I don't stop running until I reach the door to my room. I pulled it open and run inside, slamming it behind me. I collapsed on my bed and let the tears fall.

Newt. He thinks I'm dead. He thinks I left him and I'm never coming back. I must find him. I have to let him know I'm alive. I have to see him. My Newt. I heard a small knock on my door and looked up to see Xena slowly opening my door and peeking her head in.

"Y/N," she said softly. "Are you okay?"

I shake my head no and she comes into the room, sitting down on the bed. She pulled me into a hug and I cried in her arms. I told her about the boy with the chocolate brown eyes who stole my heart. I told her about the last time I saw him. I told her how much I miss him. I told her everything that I could remember.

"Oh Y/N!" she pulled me into another hug after I finished. "You'll see him again. I just know it."

"I hope so," I mumbled into her shirt. "That can't be the last thing he sees of me." I wiped my eyes and lifted my head up from her shoulder. "He means everything to me."

"He's got to be with Aris," she said, staring at the floor, lost in thought. "W.I.C.K.E.D. has to have them somewhere else. Planning something..." she trailed off and stood up. "Sorry, I have to go do something. Talk later!" She ran out of the room before I could respond. I sit up and stare at the doorway that she ran out of, confused. I wiped the rest of my tears and crawl under the covers. I instantly fall asleep and dream of the glade once more.

"Promise me something," Newt mumbled in my ear.

"Anything," I said looking up at him. Newt is leaning against a tree in the deadheads. I'm sitting between his legs and laying on his chest, his hands wrapped tightly around my torso.

"If we ever get out of here, and I don't make it for whatever reason-" I don't let him finish his sentence instead, I leaned up and kissed him.

"Don't," I whispered, closing my eyes. "Don't say it. Don't you dare say it." I opened my eyes and met Newt's gaze.

"I have to," he said, holding my hand. "You have to promise me you won't let it affect your life too much. I need you to move on."

"Newt," I began.

"Please, Y/N," he whispered. "Please just promise me."

"Okay, I promise." I said. "But what if I don't make it?"

"I won't let that happen. Ever," he said hugging me close to his chest and kissing my forehead. "You can never leave me like that."

I wake up with tears streaming down my face and my cheeks hot.
