T. B. Sangster Imagines [REQUESTS CLOSED]

Newt (AU)- I wish I was her... pt. 2

It was lunchtime, and the Gladers shared the table right beside the wall.

Y/N sat by the very wall, highlighting the lines of her textbook that she found very important for studying for Mr. Janson's test on Social Studies on Monday. Until she realized she basically just coloured in that one whole page she was stuck in, compared to the other pages she highlighted. 

She sighed and closed the book to continue consuming her lunch as she continued binging the show she was watching this morning. She chuckled as the characters practiced dancing for the country fair.

She was in her own little world again.

"Isn't your phone low battery yet from watching that show?" Until Newt, who was beside her, snapped her out of it. She held up her power bank to him without taking her eyes off of her screen, "Nope." She replied as she folded her arms on the table.

Newt rolled his eyes at her. He was getting worried for the girl. She hasn't been talking much to him as much as she used to for a month (the same day him and Heather started dating). Back then, she would even come to him to just talk until there were no words left to say.

Eventually he shrugged it off when Heather arrived with her lunch. She sat across from Newt, "Hey, guys!" She greeted.

Y/N glanced up for a millisecond to give her a tight-lipped smile as if she was saying hello and went back to watching as she takes a bite of her kiwi fruit (or any kind of fruit you like, I just had a sudden craving for kiwi😂).

She thought she was getting away that easily. But Heather called her, "Y/N?"

She hummed kindly in response.

"I was wondering if we could meet them in the cinema together with Brenda and Teresa later? You know, get ready and whatnot." Heather asked, "Like we used to do?" She added.

Y/N blinked and looked at her blankly. Of course she couldn't say no. Even if she wanted to. "Y-Yeah, sure. Your house at 4:00?" Heather nodded.

As if on cue, the bell rang. Telling them that it was time to go back in class. With that, Y/N gathered all her things and stood up, "I'll see you later." She chuckled at Heather as she waved at her nicely before leaving.

****

After hours of spending their time on their classes, they headed home.

Newt, Brenda, and Y/N walked together since the three of them live in the same neighborhood. Y/N and Brenda lived in a duplex house and Newt lived right across from them.

Y/N had her eyes roaming around the bald trees. The wind gushed as they walked silently. She noticed Newt was cold. So she took off the sweater he lend to her and handed it to him, "Here."

He looked at her in refusal, "No, no, you need it more than I do." He insisted as they kept walking.

"Trust me, I'm not cold anymore. Now wear it before you catch your death. It's your sweater after all." Y/N urged only to have him look at her and not take it.

As much as she wanted to look back at him, it made the the girl frown. So she got on her toes and put the sweater on him herself without bothering to slip his arms on his sleeve and continued walking.

Newt slipped on his arms through the sleeves as he followed, wanting to engage a conversation with her. However, he didn't have a single idea of what to talk about. He was hoping she would ask something like how she used to. But one thing he had learned about her since she became distant to him, she rarely starts the conversation anymore.

He was beginning to question himself, Am I still in love with her?

Before anything else, he snapped himself out of the question. He's with Heather for goodness sake. Those feelings were left from the past.
