Maze running (a tmr/ Newt fanfiction

The box

Isabella wakes up with a gasp, in a box like thing, which seems to be an elevator. It is pitch black. She is dizzy. And hungry.

A few minutes later, light starts pouring into the box and she uses her hand to shield her eyes from the lighting change. She looks down. She is wearing a pair of skinny jeans, combat boots and a black tank top.

She Feels something in her boot. She didn't even have to look. It was a knife.

She sees a box about two feet high and immediately climbs out. She pulls out the knife from her boot, being careful not to cut herself in the process.

A boy with dirty blond hair holds out a hand for her to shake. "Damn, he's cute" she thinks. "Hi, I'm Newt." He says in an attractive British accent. I point my knife at him. I notice there is about 50 other boys standing around us. "Who the hell are you? Why am I here? Why can't I remember anything?" Isabella asks. "Shuck, they gave her a knife" says an unknown voice from the crowd. "Take it easy. Like I said, I'm Newt and this is Alby." Says Newt calmly. "We need to talk to you. Explain some things."

After Newt and Alby explain about what the Glade is, the Maze, blah blah blah 😂, Alby walks away leaving the two teens alone. Newt puts a hand on her shoulder, and it falls down to her hand and intertwines their fingers. She shivered blissfully at his touch. It was warm. She gave him a small smile.

Later they were sitting in the grass. "So what's your name, greenie?" He asks. "Isabella" she says clearly. "Well," newt puts a hand out to shake for the second time "nice to meet you, Isabella." He says. She shakes his hand jokingly and giggles. "Nice to meet you too, Newt, but I prefer Bella." She says.

"So, being in that box for a while, do you wanna take a shower?" Newt Asks. "I actually don't know why I remember this, but I prefer showering right before bed." Newt chuckles. "Alright, but you'll need me to guard the door when you do, so none of the guys go in." Bella smiles. "Thanks"

Alby comes up to them and talks to Newt in what he seems to believe is a quiet voice, but Bella can hear every word they say. "Where is she gonna sleep? She can't sleep out here with everyone else, we can't trust those klunkheads around her" Alby says. "Well, there are no vacated rooms in the homestead, so she'll have to stay in someone's room." Newt says. "Well, It seems like you two are pretty close, do you want her in your room?" Alby asks. "Yeah, that's a good plan" says Newt before Ably walks away.

"So I get to sleep in your room?" Bella asks excitedly. "You heard that?" Newt asks. Bella nods. "You little eavesdropper" says Newt before picking Bella up and slinging her over his shoulders fireman style. She giggles. "Newt, put me down!" She yells. He puts her on the ground.

"So the rumours are true, so we have got a girl shank" says an annoying voice from behind her. Newt frowns. It was Gally. "Well, greenie, you better watch your back" he says before shoving me. Hard. I fall into Newt's grasp, and he wraps his arms around her waist. She bites her bottom lip. "Hey lovebirds, get a room" says a sarcastic voice behind Newt. It was a muscular Asian boy. They both pull away, embarrassed. "Minho, Gally pushed her into me, there was nothing going on between us.

"Suuure, whatever" says Minho before turning to Bella. "Minho" he says. "Bella" Bella says in return. "So I've heard" he says. "You're quite sarcastic" "oooh you've finally noticed" Minho says with a grin. "well, don't let me interrupt your love fest" he says chuckling and walking away. They both blush.

**later on**

Bella and Newt walk towards the showers, fingers intertwined. When they finally get in, Bella says "you know, you don't have to, uh, watch the door if you need to do other stuff.
