The Maze Runner Preferences and Imagines

Newt Christmas Imagine

"Hey there love!" A British boy say. I turn to see Newt jogging towards me. I pull my hair up in a bun and meet him halfway. As he approaches me, he tucks the stray hairs behind my ears, which is awkward. I take a small step back as Newt stands there smiling.

"Sorry." He says lowering his hand.

"Don't worry about it." I say giving him a slight shove. "What's up?"

"Oh, I just wanted to see if you were doing ok?"

"Why wouldn't I be?" I say looking worried. I started to fear the worst as many people do around the glade.

"Oh, you haven't hard?" He pauses before continuing. "Thomas and Gally were thrown into the slammer last night, we are having a gathering tonight and Alby wants you there." He has a look of concern on his face as he rubs his lower lip with his thumb.

"Why would he want me there? What have I got to do with anything?" Apart from the side that Alby never acknowledges me, it's weird that he would want me there. Newt just shrugs and takes off running in the opposite direction. Usually, the gatherings are only for keepers, which I'm not. My thoughts are interrupted by a high pitched voice.

"Hey Shuck Face." I don't even have to look to know who it is.

"Hey Chuck!" I turn to see a chubby, smiling 12 year old boy looking up at me. I return a weak smile and start walking, motioning for him to follow, which he does willingly. There is something very likable about Chuck. "What's up?" I ask as we walk together. He starts huffing and I take it as a cue to slow down.

"Nothing much. You still upset about Christmas?" He asks, hesitating on the Christmas part. Apparently, I'm the only one who has any memory of the holiday. It made me kind of sad to think that they wouldn't celebrate it here.

"No, I was never really upset, but thanks for asking shank!" I say giving him a slight punch in the arm. He lets out a small giggle. Chuck doesn't have many friends around the glade, a lot of people think he's a pain. Which he can be, but I still love him to pieces. 😊 It is a few moments before either of us say anything.

"Glad to hear it." He says to break the silence. "Did you hear about Thomas and Gally?" He says, seeming ready to gossip. I shake my head no and see his eyes light up when he finds he can spread some juicy secrets.

"Well, I guess you're wondering what shucking happened." I nod and stop for a bit, sitting down. I know this is going to take a while. Chuck plops down next to me and starts explaining the whole thing. "Well, it turns out, that Thomas and Gally are both in lov-" Chuck is interrupted by Newt, who sits down on the other side of me.

"Sharing bloody secrets again, are we Chuck?" The smile fades from Chucks face, as one forms on Newt's. This makes me laugh, seeing how quickly Chuck's mood has changed. Both boys look at me in confusion, but it quickly fades.

"So," I start, "what shucking happened?" I ask looking at Chuck, who sticks his tongue out at Newt before continuing.

"Well, Thomas and Gally both wanted-" He is interrupted by Newt again.

"Slim it Chuck!" He turns to me, then back at the boy. "We talked about this!" He says in a low voice, as if I couldn't hear him. Chuck looks down and nods.

"C'mon then!" Newt continues. "We have a gathering to attend!"

Newt grabs my hand pulls me a long, urging me to walk faster. It seems a bit early to start a gathering, but I don't question it. Newt has the biggest smile on his face as he runs.

"Come on Y/N! Hurry up!" I roll my eyes and start jogging a long with him, but get tired quickly. I stop in front of the gathering doors and catch my breath as Newt waits for me.

"So, love," he says in between breaths, "I remember you told me a lot about Christmas.....everything about Christmas really. So...." He opens the doors and I see all of the Gladers standing with huge smiles on their faces.

"MERRY CHRISTMAS!" They all say in unison! A smile creeps on my face as everyone starts talking. They planned a Christmas party for me! There was a tree in the corner and presents everywhere!

"Hey Shank!" Thomas says as he and Gally approach me. Gally has what looks like a Santa hat on, but I could tell he didn't really know how to make one. They pull me in for hug as they walk past me to join the rest of the party.

"Newt, did you do this?" I turn towards him, smiling from ear to ear . He just smiles and looks down. I was speechless. We stand there in silence for a few moments when he digs his hand into his pocket.

"There's one decoration still missing." He says with a sly smile. He pulls his hand put of his pocket and I see a green, leaf thing. Mistletoe! He holds it above our heads and let's out a laugh. Letting out a small giggle, I pull him in for a huge kiss! He drops the mistletoe and wraps his arms around my waist, my arms around his neck. I hear the gladers cheering us on in the back as our lips move in sync. We pull away smiling as he tucks my hair behind my ear. This time I don't pull away. We go in for another kiss and just enjoy the party. Although I can't remember a specific Christmas, I knew that this was the best gift ever!
