The Heat// The Scorch Trials//Newt//Book 2

Part 6

*MERRY CHRISTMAS ALSO!*

Coras POV.

we'd been walking for hours by now towards the city, most of the time me and Frypan were silent except when we swapped roles, sometimes i carried the water and food, other times Frypan did. when we swapped we'd start talking, well it was mostly like complaining. i saw people running up ahead of us, so did Minho as he all gathered us into a circle. this brought back memories...

Minho proceeded to talk to the people who came from the city, they were burnt where ever they weren't covered and it looked like it hurt like a griever. but they were mostly covered by random clothes. they were sizing up the group looking us up and down as they circled us before they spoke to us.

they said they were cranks, but what Newt told me about the cranks he saw back at the place these guys seemed Normal as hell. they're speech was a little off but its not like you'd actually care about  how well you can pronounce words its more of trying to survive every day of this oven of a place.

soon after they ran back towards the city we all just kind of stood there in shock before Minho herded us off again.

"Fry this place is so weird" i mumbled to him as i held the sheet over us, i kept getting glances from Newt, is he jealous that me and Frypan get to share a sheet. ha loser, he picked Minho so its his fault, plus id probably murder him by now cause he probably wouldnt let me do anything.

"Yeah i know, i mean this place cant even be on earth can it? i mean compared to the Glade...this place is Hell" i laughed at him before i covered my mouth to try slow my laughs, the sun was setting now and we could remove our sheets in a hour.

Me and Frypan joked and complained some more making each other laugh when we both wanted to complain about the same thing. it was my turn to wear the Food backpack we made and the water, so when we swapped we didnt Need the sheet anymore.

"All right lets rest while we can!" Minho called out and we all just sat down on the spot, some walked a far bit away to go to the bathroom. i sat there holding the water in my crossed legs as i moved the food too sit in front of me too, i chucked a apple to each of the boys.

"Hey Cora" Newt spoke leaning down and kissing me before glaring at Frypan, i almost burst into laughter but i pulled my lips into a fine line trying to stop myself from laughing. i winked at Frypan and he just Nodded understanding.

"Newtie...i want you" i whispered seductivly to him, i grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled him down closer to me as i kissed his Neck and below his bruised jaw before i mumbled something into his ear.

"Newt, me and Frypan were just telling jokes and complaining, dont go acting like a Crank on us now" i mumbled before i pulled back laughing, He pulled away anger obvious in his eyes, He raised his hand to hit me but Minho grabbed it before looking at him.

i just sat there looking at him with Hurt eyes, i know that we all caught the flare and that we'd all turn into a crank any way, i guess Newt didnt want me to think of him that way. He softened before turning around and walking away. 

yeah Me and Newt love each other but the perfect relationships do have cracks, we can fix them together bond over it. i stood up and handed the water to Winston to hold for me and the food to Fry.

"Newt? i whispered as i walked across the group, they were all settling to sleep so i didnt want to yell it out, i mean i doubt he'd respond any way. i crouched Next to Newt and played with his hair, he turned over to me with Tears in his eyes, he sat up and hugged me crying into my top.

"Whats wrong Newt?" i stroked his hair as he cried into my chest.

"Its just, you seem to be so friendly with every single boy but me...i get jealous and then...then i tried to hurt you, i shouldnt have tried" he sobbed out,  i just smiled and pulled his face up to face me, i leaned down and kissed his before kissing his bruised jaw.

"Newt your my best friend, boyfriend and my everything, turning all of those into a way to act of course wont be like how i treat the other boys because your special to me...but i can started punching you in the balls when you sass me...i mean i do with others" i laughed out at the end and he pulled back from my grip before pulling me down to lay with him.

"Im sorry i just a slint head at times" he mumbled i nodded before he punched me in the shoulder, i punched him in the stomach before Newt turned over to spoon with me, it was hot but i strangely didnt want Newt to move from my side.

---

after 3-4 hours of sleeping Minho got us all up and moving since we could cover more ground while the sun wasnt out, so he had us jogging for a bit i was still tired so i was joggin at the back of the group with Newt since he said his ankle hurt.

i always kind of did wonder how he could do that in the maze? when i went in there it was all pretty smooth flooring. but i just concentrated on jogging, keeping up with the boys and making sure none of the food fell out of my food backpack.

Fry was carrying the water for me since it was pretty heavy so i carried the sheet as well. i looked at newt through the corner of my eye and reached my hand out to grab his, when i touched it he looked at me before grabbing my hand squeezing it.

the sun was starting to rise again after a couple of hours of jogging, so we decided we'd sleep during the day. Frypan said he'd share with Winston so me and Newt huddled under the sheet to sleep and be protected by the sun.

i laid there starring at newt as i felt the sun rise up and start beating down on the sheets, Newt stared back at me. i reached over and touched the bruise Minho gave him, He winced a bit before i moved my hand away.
