The One - Newt x Reader Book 2

Chapter 3

Newt's P.O.V.

The next morning, Thomas seemed out of it.

He was already going out of his mind trying to find out what was going on with Teresa and Y/n, but today . . . he was even more off the walls and I could tell it was making everyone a bit anxious.

We spent practically the whole day running tests with breaks every now and then for food and stuff. 

When we woke up, we got dressed and went to breakfast. Then we went to the big room with all of the random equipment. They put Minho back on the treadmill, took a few boys to an area covered with tables, and led a couple to another room. I was one of the boys at the tables.

They told me to sit up on one of the tables, so I obediently did so. Then I noticed a guy coming towards me with a big needle. I eyed him as he reached for my arm. I stopped him right before the needle touched my arm. 

"What is that?"

"Vitamins A through Z, minerals, calcium - just stuff your body is lacking because of the maze." 

I looked up at him and back down at my arm as he injected the "vitamins." Tommy came in a few seconds later, followed by a few people in lab coats. His eyes went wide when he walked in. I followed his gaze and saw her.

Teresa.

How had I not noticed her before.

She was behind a half closed curtain, sitting on a table like mine. She was talking to a lady in a coat. She had brown hair with blonde highlights and blue scrubs on under her lab coat. Thomas immediately made a beeline for her. I hopped up and followed. The doctor saw us before we could get there, and shut the curtain. An obvious sign to go away.

Thomas, however, didn't stop.

I caught up to him and grabbed his arm. 

"Tommy. She's fine. They're probably just talking about girl stuff. They obviously want to be left alone." I motioned to the curtain with my hand. He turned and looked at me.

"Newt, aren't you even a little bit curious? She promised to stay with Y/n, right? So why isn't she with her?" 

I shrugged. "I don't know, Tommy."

"And you're not worried? At all?"

"Of course I'm worried! She got shot! But it was only in the bloody shoulder. She probably hasn't even woken up yet, anyways. Teresa is probably just getting a few tests done while she waits for Y/n to wake up."

He nodded a little and sighed.

"You're right."

I nodded. 

"Of course I am."

Hopefully.

Y/n's P.O.V.

   The next morning, I woke up and my room was dark. The door had a small window in it, showing the hallway. Which was also dark. I cautiously sat up in my bed. What time was it? I looked around and found a clock on the wall.
