Newt woke up to the sound of someone knocking on the door. Not wanting to wake Ariadne, he slowly and carefully climbed out of bed and answered it.
"Tommy, you'll bloody wake her up! Slim it, shank. Now, what do you want?" Newt whispered.
He had come here to check up on his sister and perhaps have some sibling bonding time, but now that he had Newt alone it was the perfect opportunity to question him. "Do you have feelings for my sister, Newt?" He demanded.
Newt panicked, why did Thomas want to know? Should he tell the truth? What if it would ruin the close brotherly bond between him and Thomas? Newt knew that he wanted to be much more than Ariadne's friend, but what if she didn't feel the same? Would Thomas tell her? Would it ruin their friendship?
"Look, Tommy, I don't know what the shuck you're talking about." Newt decided to lie and tried to shut the door.
"Newt, I know you well enough to tell when you're covering something up. You can tell me the truth. I've seen the way you look at her." Thomas stuck his foot in the gap, preventing him from doing so.
"I don't know what to tell you, Tommy." Newt sighed with irritation at his persistent friend but opened the door. "I know she's your sister and this must be weird for you but...she means the world to me. We were best friends for years before the maze but along the way I...I fell for her. Even when I didn't remember anything about her, those feelings were there. Bloody hell, Tommy, I don't know what to do. I don't want to ruin things by making a move if she doesn't feel the same."
"Newt, I think everyone can see that you both feel the same about each other. I'll admit it's a bit weird, seeing you two together, but it's good to see you both happy. I'd never want to jeopardise that." The brunette boy admitted.
"Thanks, Tommy. It means a lot to me." Newt clapped his friend on the back.
"You should tell her how you feel." Thomas advised and Newt nodded. "And Newt, I'm glad I missed that shot and I'm sorry for-"
"Tommy, you have no reason to apologise. You did what I needed you to do. Did a pretty klunk job of it, but that was for the best too." Newt cut off his friend. "It's water under the bridge, mate."
Thomas nodded, "Oh, and it goes without saying that if you hurt my sister or try anything on her, I'll make sure I don't miss the next time I shoot you."
"Wouldn't dream of it, Tommy." Newt grinned fondly.
