Thomas and Newt now live together as citizens. Everything is great until the reaping. Every year there is the zombie games. Each state except Florida will pick two tributes to compete in a game. The winning state will be rewarded. Newt and Thomas picked after they were lied to. Now they must compete in the games against past winners. The game being to eliminate the human, Newt.

Thomas and Newt decide to meet up, with some other friends, and investigate an abandoned building out in the middle of nowhere. The idea was Thomas' but if he'd known what was to come, both good and very, very bad, he may never have asked anyone to go. That would mean all of the close moments the two boys shared, like when they had lent in to kiss, would never have happened. The question was, would it have been worth it to call the whole trip off, when it would prevent Newt and Thomas from falling for each other but also stop the storm from causing so much pain for the boys? Newtmas fluff and angst :) Also, I don't own any of these characters, they belong to James Dashner. Started: 01/09/2018 Sort of finished: 30/01/2019 (I have a part two idea. Comment or message me and I'll write it)
