Touch Of Memory

Chapter XXXV

Minho was dragging Zart, and Sofia was trying to convince Cam and Rita to leave. They were the only ones left.

'How were you so quick?' I asked.

'We told them that Death Creatures would come in in case they didn't leave. Minho's idea, it was brilliant,' Sofia explained.

'Nice... Newt won't stop puking. I'll go get him buckets and stuff.'

'You two seem...' Sofia said, smirking.

'We don't seem-'

'We are!' Newt exclaimed, cutting me off. Could this get worse? Everyone acted like kids.

Sofia laughed. Newt gave me an awkward bear hug.

'I told you to stay in the bathroom.'

'But you took too long, and I missed you,' he said. If he wasn't drunk, I would find that cute.

'Come on, let's get you some water,' I said, pulling him to the kitchen. 'Can you manage it alone?' I asked Sofia.

'Sure, and Minho will be back soon,' she said.

'Oh, Minho,' I said, smirking.

'Don't be silly-'

'Who's being silly?' Minho asked, opening the door.

Sofia looked like she was about to have a heart attack.

'We'll leave you alone,' I said, grinning.

As soon as we entered the kitchen, Newt kissed me.

'Newt, you've drank-'

'I love you,' he said. I wasn't sure he really meant that, due to his state.

'I love you too.' I knew that he wouldn't remember it, but I felt good saying it. I pecked him on the cheek and fetched him a glass of water.

'Here, you'll feel better.'

'I'm tired,' he said, after drinking it.

'I'll find you a bed.'

'No. You'll find us a bed.'

'Do you really think I want to sleep with you and your puke?'

'Oh shut up, you bloody love me.'

I smiled, grabbed his hand, and led him to my dorm.
