#tmr newt drabble

[kareofbears]

"You know," Thomas starts, putting the flowers down on the sand as he rolls his sleeves up. "How you yelled at me, back in the Glade, because I wasn't helping out?"

A breeze ruffles his hair, longer than it was a year ago, and the tang of salt doesn't register anymore. "I know, I know. You technically didn't yell. To be fair, I was new, and it's not like I had someone showing me the ropes."

He kneels on the ground, in front of where the tombstone stood. This wasn't the boulder that Vince had set up in the beginning of Safe Haven's existence--this was smaller, flatter, bordering on where the sand meets the dirt. "Now, I feel like all I'm doing with these kids is showing the ropes."

Busying himself with rearranging the flowers, he rubs his thumb on a golden petal idly. "They're doing fine. Between me and the others, things are getting done. Maybe not as efficiently if you were here, but we're trying." He pauses. "I'm trying."

Thomas' voice doesn't shake, not anymore. How can it? It's just him and Newt. His voice never shakes with Newt.

Waves crash somewhere behind him. A bird chirps, its tune lively and bright. The world continues to spin, and it's a long moment before he speaks again.

"I'm throwing myself into work, Newt." His gaze tilts skywards. "I'm working, aren't I? I build homes, I teach, I train the others. There's food, so much of it, enough for years and for anyone who wants to start a family. Last night, I woke up because people were laughing so loud near my bed--laughing. I couldn't even get mad."

Careful not to mess up the floral arrangement, Thomas leans forward slowly until his forehead is pressed right up against the slab, stone cool to the touch. "How busy?" he wonders. "How busy do I need to be until this gets better? How much more do I need to do before it starts to get better? How much more do I need to give?"

When he doesn't get an answer, Thomas lets his eyes slip close. "I'm busy, Newt. I'm busy, and I'm trying, and I'm so fucking sad."

Eventually, Thomas raises his head. He presses his lips to the top of the tombstone, smiling wryly to himself. "At least I can actually reach the top of your head like this, right?"

He gets on his feet, brushing the sand off of his pants, feeling the sun beat relentlessly down on his skin. "Tomorrow, then. Maybe it'll get better tomorrow."

For @ssseashell <3

[arlowthenacho]

*warning for drug use (sleeping pills)*

dreams are hard.

thomas understood that more than most. sleep was just another prison to escape for him--images of his friends corpses coated his subconscious in something sticky and impossible to wash out. no amount of peer-mandated therapy would ever wipe away the faces he saw every time he closed his eyes.

but everyone still seemed to love trying. thomas had gone through every available option to stop his nightmares. white noise, co-sleeping, reading, tea, even avoiding the shucking thing altogether. nothing had worked.

well, nothing but the sedatives.

brenda had found them in a box one of the adults in the haven had packed. the package was a strange mix of letters that thomas couldn't pronounce--diaza-something and valium--but they got the job done. every night before bed, thomas would pop one of each into his mouth and pass out in 5 minutes flat.

his sleep was dreamless, finally a reprieve from the hell his mind loved to make him relive. but unfortunately, all good things must come to an end--that was a lesson thomas always learned the hard way.

as his body got used to the medication, memories slowly started to filter back into his slumber.

it was innocent at first; flashes of lush green grass, the smell of sun-warmed earth, the feel of dirt under his fingernails and on his skin. thomas could practically feel the artificial sun shining on his back, the sweat beading on his brow. it was comforting in a morbid sort of way. he vaguely knew where he was and what had happened there, but he couldn't muster up the energy to care. these dreams were the only ones that didn't feel like purgatory--rather ironic, considering how they came to be there.

then people came into the mix.

a face he couldn't name smiled at him. thomas lifted his hand in a wave before he continued to wander his old home. he made it a few steps towards the east wall before another unknown glader appeared and nodded at thomas. the pattern continued for what seemed like hours until he finally made it to his destination.

the gardens were just like he remembered. they still smelled of damp soil and fresh cut grass, the wind still weaved through the leaves of each plant, the fences still creaked and groaned against the breeze.

thomas took a deep breath in and held it. he would never admit it, but the gardens were the only place he really liked in the glade. it was the only spot that felt like it belonged there.

he took another breath, a lazy grin stretching across the length of his face. god, what a nice break from the world he lived in. no grief or misery, no death or destruction, only the sound of wind whistling through the--

"oi, shuckface! get your butt over here! garden's won't bloody till themselves!"

thomas woke with a scream that could shatter glass.

he felt around the bed, a constant stream of "newt, newt, newt" leaving his lips. he fisted the sheets for another minute before dread settled over him like an icy blanket.

newt died. newt died and it was his fucking fault.

-- -- --

the next night was worse.

thomas had taken 3 pills this time, desperate to return to what he had before. brenda would definitely beat his ass for it if she found out, but thomas could deal with that. all he needed was a good-night's sleep that consisted of nothing but the black behind his eyelids.

of course, nothing ever goes his way.

it started the same as every other. trees and grass and dirt and people. a few offhand waves or nods from unspecified boys as he made his way through the small box of green.

thomas deliberately passes the gardens, not wanting a repeat of last time. instead, he glides to the kitchen and observes the lunchtime rush, lets out a chuckle at the face frypan was making.

he lingers by the tables for a while, watching the residents of the glade talk and eat.

at some point, he senses minho sit next to him. thomas smiles and lets a bit of his weight lean against his friend, who happily returns the gesture. after another moment, minho claps thomas on his shoulder and fully pulls him into his side. they both laugh as thomas lightly shoves him off, the pair just enjoying each other's presence. the moment is soon ruined when a third person joins the table.

its newt.

green veins jutting out of his pale skin, black fluid dripping out of his mouth and onto the wood in front of him. his eyes were pools of black, so dark thomas could see his reflection in them.

his breath caught painfully in his throat when newt began to speak.

"dear thomas," no. no, no, no--"please tommy, please..."

he was reciting his own last words. this couldn't be happening. it felt too real, it all felt too real--thomas couldn't live through this again, he needed out--

"i would follow you anywhere."

thomas woke up a sobbing, screaming, thrashing mess. he had somehow managed to fall of his bed in his sleep, the hardwood of the floor biting into his back. he couldn't find it in himself to care.

the grief in thomas' chest was so powerful it felt like a tangible weight. he could feel it shattering his ribs as he backed himself into a wall and sobbed himself hoarse on the ground.

-- -- --

the third night, thomas gave up on the sedatives.

he figured he would have a nightmare no matter how many pills he swallowed, so he decided to stop fighting and surrender himself to whatever his brain could conjure.

so, when the night reared its ugly head once more, thomas just face-planted into his pillows and willed sleep to take him hostage.

-- -- --

thomas opened his eyes to the sun blinding him through the gap in his window. he groaned and threw a hand over his face, attempting to shoo the light away by willpower alone.

when his efforts proved useless, he gave up and rolled over into what he thought was empty space. it was very much not.

his arm collided into a warm body.

thomas gasped, sat up so fast he nearly have himself whiplash. he heard the person chuckle, something low and gravelly with sleep. had minho snuck into his room again?

"it's just me, love, what's the matter?"

thomas felt like all the air had been punched out of him. newt was in his hut. his newt was in his hut. his newt was in his bed. what the fuck was going on?

"i--what--newt? how are you--what--" the more thomas spoke, the quicker the tears filled his waterline. his voice wobbled and shook, like one wrong move would send him off the edge. newt sat up so quickly the bed rocked.

"tommy? baby, what's wrong, talk to me," newt cupped thomas' cheeks, slowly tilting his face to look at the taller man. thomas sputtered as tears tracked down his face, finally setting the sobs he had bottled up for months free.

"i miss you so much, newt, you don't understand--" newt could barely hear thomas' voice over his bawling.

"oh, baby," newt carded a hand through thomas' hair, softly shushing him and wiping away his never-ending stream of tears. "i'm here now, shhh, im here now, love."

the two stayed like that for a long while. every time thomas would stop crying he would remember who was holding him in his arms and stroking his hair and kissing his forehead and he would start right back up again. newt was patient with him. he tried to comfort thomas the best he could, which eventually proved to be successful when the boy could finally look up at newt without bursting at the seams.

when thomas calmed down, newt guided them both to lay down on the bed. thomas carefully rested his head on newt's chest and let him continue to run his hands through his hair. newt made a pleased sound in the back of his throat and brought his other hand to rub at thomas' back.

after a while, tommy finally allowed all of the tension to drain out of his body. he was a puddle on top of newt, which the man snorted at. the lovers settled into a comfortable silence, which tommy broke with a soft statement.

"i love you, newt. i hope you know that." his whisper was so soft newt almost mistook it for a breath.

"i love you too, tommy. remember that for me, yeah?" newt punctuated his sentence with a lingering kiss on thomas' lips. it was chaste, and over far to quickly for tommy's liking, so once newt pulled away thomas craned his neck up and caught his loves lips with his again.

they stayed like that for what felt like hours, lazily cuddling and kissing on thomas' bed, not worrying about any responsibilities they might have had. at some point his eyes flutter shut, and he falls asleep with comforting hands on his skin.

when thomas wakes up, he feels tingles on his skin and a dent in his sheets.

[zuzufromtheafterlife]

In His Arms

The hammock swayed back and forth, a rocking endorsed by Thomas' leg as it hung over the side, Newt felt himself slowly slipping further.

His eyes were drooping while his head lay tucked into Thomas' chest. The hand running through his hair wasn't helping much either, soothing nails scratching across his scalp. It was as if a spell had been cast over him, urging him to finally close his eyes and fall asleep.

Most nights it would be difficult, the screeching maze too loud, but under Thomas' care and the stars above, he couldn't find it within himself to resist.

his eyes burnt from lack of sleep

THIS SENTENCE I KNEW IT WAS GONNA BE AMAZING WHEN I READ THIS. Its silly but the choice of vocabulary, even though it is sorta simple is so good. Thomas is burning. And througtout tmr fire has always had disaster coming afterwards. After the ending was triggered and the grievers came, after Teresas betrayal, and after Newts death. When theres fire its never good, so the burning, as well as being the best way to describe that he does not care the pain its causing him, he has to keep working is amazing because of fire in the rest of the maze runner.

so calming he doesn't question the source as his eyelids grow heavy.

THE AMOUNT OF TRUST THIS REQUIRES. There's no way after all the shit he's been through, that he doesn't have trust issues. BUT HE DOESN'T EVEN CONSIOUSLY REGISTER ITS NEWT. His brain just trusts him and knows he's safe. Newt rests a hand on the back of Thomas’s neck, his touch soft and gentle, coaxing Thomas’s head to come up.

AGAIN WITH THE TRUST. He's hiding, perhaps from himself, but only Newt would be able to coax him up when he's that exhausted. Thomas can't pull the memory from his brain where Newt would have said that, his chest throbs at the words either way. 

and then i started sobbing. Throbbing with hurt and love. his neck feeling much colder

Cold without Newts touch, Newts his light, his warmth. The only thing that will ever keep him steady. 

He's defieantly not steady any longer then omd Thomas wished to meet him halfway his body seemed to be frozen, he felt frozen.

Without Newt, he's cold, he's frozen. THE PARALYSING FEELING HES EXPERINECING AND THE FACT HES LITERALLY COLD i want your writing injected into my blood. He pulled the pillow closer to his chest

He can't hold Newt anymore, so he holds a pillow. becoming as small as possible as he wept

Newt cant hide him anymore, can't hold him. So he tries to hide himself. his bones chipped deeper and deeper until it felt as if he would never move again

ITS DESTROYING HIM. It's eating away at his bones until he's not able to stand anymore, can't move, can't carry on. any amount of discomfort would be worth it to wake up to the scent of mint and the feeling of Newt’s warm body against him. 

My favourite line throughout the whole story. I think Thomas, at least in this moment would rather still be with WCKED and running from them than be safe here. He feels he doesn't deserve to have comfort anymore. But he also would give anything, to wake up next to Newt again.

I LOVED THIS AND IT WAS BEAUTIFUL AMD SOUL SHATTERING AND BONE CRUMBLING AND BLOOD FREEZING BUT IT WAS THE BEST THING. I love reading your writing, and you are defiantly gonna go far because a drabble should not destroy me as much as this did. Thank you so much for sharing this with me, and the rest of us lucky people 💚

I sleep so I can see you 'cause I hate to wait so long

story summary: Thomas struggles with heart wrenching loneliness. this manifests in this dreams through blonde hair and touches that never happened. (this drabble is inspired by this post!)

TW LIST: depictions of grief. (if you are struggling with grief please reach out.)

genre: canon compliance, hurt/no comfort. (seriously this is just sad sad sad. no happiness here. you have been warned!)

word count: 971

Thomas found himself in the map room as he did on many days, his hand cramping from writing while his eyes burnt from lack of sleep. If his gaze could burn the maps before him, they would have been in an uproar of fire 3 hours ago. The thought of resting his head, just for a moment, even though he knows the outcome, comes to him and he gives into the impulsive urge as he has many times before. Knowing his future self will scold him for the pain in his neck come daylight. 

He doesn't hear the uneven footsteps enter the room, or the presence behind him. A quiet chuckle fills the room that sounds so distant, yet so calming he doesn't question the source as his eyelids grow heavy. Just as his vision grows dark he feels lean hands rest on his shoulders, he mumbles incoherently as familiar fingers find their way into his hair, rubbing and scratching his scalp softly. 

“How many times do I gotta drag you outta this room, hmm tommy?” Newt’s voice is so far away yet so close, as if the sound came from his own brain instead of the boy's pale lips. The brunette merely hums in response, in his dazed state wishing for the fingers to never leave his tangled hair. A warmth washes over his body, a smile playing on his lips comfortably at the blonde's presence. 

As if that single thought brought the action to life, lean fingers slip away from his head, a grumble of annoyance making Thomas’s throat wobble. He distantly listens as Newt presumably grabs a chair, the chair coming to his left, Newt places himself in said chair and must be facing him, because even as Thomas's arms cover his face he can feel a sad gaze on him. A moment passes in complete silence, Thomas’s gut clenches for some odd reason, somehow knows once the silence is lifted.. Something will happen. 

He lifts his head, Newt in his peripheral vision as he faces forward, Newt resting his head on his arms facing thomas. His cheek squished against his forearm. He sees Newt raise his head, now resting his chin against the palm of his hand. Thomas presses his face back in his own arms, his inside of his arms almost shielding him from whatever near future makes him so sick. Newt rests a hand on the back of Thomas’s neck, his touch soft and gentle, coaxing Thomas’s head to come up.

Thomas sits with his shoulders slumped, his eyes on the incoherent writing in front of him. “I told you to take care of yourself.” Newt says almost as kind as his touch, his scolding light. Thomas can't pull the memory from his brain where Newt would have said that, his chest throbs at the words either way. 

Newt’s hand slips away from Thomas’s nape, his neck feeling much colder as the touch ends. Much to Thomas's delight, Newt cups Thomas's cheek and pulls his face to make Thomas face his gaze. “You need to leave me.” Newt’s words sound drowned, as if they were underwater. Thomas opens his mouth to speak, the words he wishes so desperately to say unable to be vocalized. 

im sorry im sorry im sorry im sorry he thought. He doesn't practically know what he's sorry for. 

Newt’s other hand makes its way to the other side of Thomas’s face, the brunette leans into the touch desperately, trying to soak in the feeling. Before he knows it tears spill from his eyes which the blonde wipes away without a second thought, the only thing holding Thomas steady is hands on his face. The only thing that will ever keep him steady. 

Newt came closer, despite the fact how badly Thomas wished to meet him halfway his body seemed to be frozen, he felt frozen. The only thing not impossibly cold being Newt’s hands. Newt brought his lips in between Thomas’s furrowed brows, a shaky sigh escapes Thomas. The kiss is impossibly gentle and lingers for an impossible amount of time, Thomas feels himself slipping from the moment, being pulled away from the oh so lovely feeling of Newt’s hands and lips. 

Newt pulls away, once he does the blonde presses his forehead against Thomas's. “So much guilt, even while you sleep?” 

Thomas opens his eyes and doesn't find blonde hair and freckled skin, he finds darkness and a damp pillow. 

His heart is racing, hammering into his ribs, his breathing no slower. Thomas realizes in his sleep he brought a pillow in between his arms, he stretches his arm out instinctively, reaching out for the warmth of Newt’s body.

…

Oh.

Right. 

It's been almost two weeks since arriving at the safe haven, he almost always wakes up strangling onto something. Whether that be pillows, sheets or his own waist in a quite pathetic manner. He remembers when he used to wake up to a sore back or neck from sleeping in cars and up against walls, even now, in his bed he would give anything to go back because any amount of discomfort would be worth it to wake up to the scent of mint and the feeling of Newt’s warm body against him. 

His chest shakes, his lip wobbles as he tries to fight back a sob. He pulled the pillow closer to his chest and the thought of Newt’s head resting in his lap, smiling up at him with a slightly crooked tooth smile broke the dam. He clenched his eyes shut bringing his legs to his chest, becoming as small as possible as he wept. The forever now carved into his bones chipped deeper and deeper until it felt as if he would never move again, he was forever stuck with stinging eyes and wobbly cries.

Authors Note: yeah i told you this was sad. this was supposed to be a warm up for a night time writing sesh then i got distracted.. ate.. watched youtube.. and suddenly it was 10 o'clock. sorry guys 😭 im sorry i haven't updated any of my wips in weeks.. please take this as a formal apology I'm tryna get back into my writing game :( anyways tell me what you think (if your not sobbing to hard like our boy thomas here. bro cannot catch a break.)

(anyone interested in my compass IT IS NOT ABANDONED. I PROMISE. also expect rage filled Newt next chapter hehehehe)

The night air at the edge of the Last City wasn't like it had been at the Glade, it smelled bad and definitely didn't help with your anxiety. Tomorrow would be the day you'd try to rescue Minho. You ventured to the roof to try and clear your thoughts a little, but you were met with your friend already sitting there.

"Hey," you softly said and sat beside Newt. He glanced at you briefly, clutching his arm and you felt your stomach turn slightly at the thought of your friend's infection. Newt had already come to terms with it, at least he tried to act it out as such. He kept saying that Minho is your top priority and that he doesn't matter. Which made you want to scream that how can he say something like that, the thought of losing him was unbearable.

"Couldn't sleep?" Newt asked, and you shook your head.

"What if it won't work? What if we can't get Minho out?" you mumbled and Newt sighed.

"Thomas knows what he's doing. We have Teresa and she'll get us to Minho."

"What if she has a plan to betray us again?"

Newt didn't say anything to that at first, he knew that Teresa could very well have plans to pull out some surprise stunt.

"Even if she will, we'll have each other. Look at the stars, Y/N," he finally told you, pointing to the sky. "They shine for us, just like back at the Glade. Remember? I taught you some constellations."

You reminisced that time, it felt like it had happened only yesterday but at the same time it felt like it has been centuries when you and Newt just laid on the grass, joking together and looking at the stars. Newt saying that the stars were there to comfort him if he felt sad, and that they shine for them who need encouragement. Somehow, it had helped you a lot when you had come up in the Box.

Newt turned his eyes back to the sky too as you did, being met with a marvelous sight of millions of bright stars. He found himself smiling slightly, even with this ugly world, there was beauty in places where you knew to look for it.

“Last Kiss” TMR Newt x Reader

(A/N: Takes place during The Maze Runner: The Death Cure. Also this is a drabble, so it’s really short.)

Standing just outside of where everyone slept, you waited.

Newt had asked for you to wait for him. He had already figured that after the last meeting, Thomas would soon run off on his own. Newt and Frypan were a step ahead.

“Hey, love,” Newt appeared from around a corner.

“Hey, fluff-hair.”

You both met in an embrace.

“Remember to watch out for the younger ones. They scare just as easily.”

“I will,” you ran your fingers through his hair. “Promise me you won’t do anything stupid.”

“Like following a last second plan from Thomas? I’ll do my best, love.”

His fingers wove between yours.

“Newt.”

“Hmm?”

“If you find a cure…”

“I love you.” His fingers squeezed your own.

You sighed. “I love you too, Newt.”

The kiss that followed was firm, but unhurried. Lips reacting and moving in their own dance.

Your heart yearned for Newt to stay. To be by your side and not face any more dangers. To be absorbed in his aura of love and assurance as he held you.

Taking a fleeting breath, Newt pressed for more. Pulling your bottom lip between his lips with a lightness only he could achieve.

“You’re my paradise,” Newt whispered.

DO YOU TRUST ME? (NEWT X READER DRABBLE)

Request: Newt x reader drabble with prompt “do you trust me?” please??? Your writing literally makes my day whenever I see it on my feed!!! Thank you so much!!!

Newt can’t help but sigh happily at the feeling of Y/N cuddled under his arm, her little fingers trailing back & forth across his stomach - soothing caresses that make his soul feel lighter.

He tightens his grip on her - a gentle squeeze that makes her feel warm & protected, cherished & his.

Y/N tilts her head up, nuzzles the skin of his neck with the tip of her nose. “You’re beautiful.” she tells him - soft declaration through smiling lips.

Newt stills at her words, breath hitching at the back of his throat as his heart skips. A smile - wide & awestruck - lights up his face as he looks down at her & meets her gaze. He swallows, not knowing what to say - his mind too dizzy with love to form coherent thoughts.

Y/N understands, though. She can see it in his eyes, the way he adores her wholeheartedly. She reaches up & cups his cheek, offering him a warm, gentle palm to lean into.

And he does, breathing a blissful sigh at the feeling.

“Don’t be a runner.” he says, turning his face to whisper against her hand. “Stay here, with me, just like this...where I can keep you safe.” He cradles her jaw while she cradles his, every stroke of his thumb a silent plea for her safety. “Let me keep you safe.”

Y/N leans up & pecks his chin, fingers soft against his neck as she murmurs, “I have to do this, Newt. We need more runners if we’re gonna make it out of here.”

“But--”

“Do you trust me?”

“More than anyone.” 

“Then trust that I’ll make it back to you. Trust me when I promise that I’ll never, ever leave you, okay?”

Breath tight in his throat, Newt manages a quiet “Okay” in reply. He forces himself to mirror the hopeful smile on Y/N’s lips, but his fear of losing her doesn’t fade. He knows it never will.

Thanks for reading! Any and all comments/feedback/re-blogs are always much appreciated :)

Can you do a newt au?

Day 11: Character A is pretending to be their friend’s lover for the sake of the friend’s family. Character B is said friend’s sibling.

Pairing: Newt x Reader

A/N: this is going to be a modern college au in which the gladers are the said siblings

❄ ❊ ❄  ❊  ❄  ❊

“No!”

“Come on, Y/N,” Minho pleads with you.

“Absolutely not!”

“Please” he starts to beg, hands clasped together. “It’sonly going to be my family and the Gladers.”

His group of friends from high school call themselves ‘the Gladers’. You’re not sure why— you vaguely recall him telling you about something to do with a school team.

“Wait- is Newt going to be there?”

“Uh…” That response in itself is enough to make you groan in defeat. “You’ll still come though, right?”

“Minho, he hates me!”

“He does not!”

“Yes he does!”

You feel that it’s fair for you to assume that the guy hates you for no reason seeing as you’ve never done anything to him— or at least that you can think of. It’s frustrating because he seems so happy and cool around literally everyone but you. Whenever you’re around, it’s all one-word replies and averted gazes.

“Please, Y/N, he’s my best friend—” You shoot him a glare with daggers in your eyes. “O-Other than you of course- look, you’re both my best friends, and it would be great if you can get along- for me, please- I’ll owe you big time for this!” The way Minho is looking at you, you can make it through one night to help your best friend out. He really needs this.

“All right, whatever, just text me the details.

"Trust me, Y/N, Newt definitely doesn’t hate you.”

“Yeah, yeah,” you dismiss him, not believing that for a second, but he’s never looked so relieved and you’ve always wanted to meet his family— however you had imagined it under different circumstances.

You just hope you won’t regret your decision.

❄ ❄ ❄

By the time you and Minho arrive to his family home, the party is already in full swing. Food is laid out on tables and counters, the smaller kids are running around, the gladers are taking shots with some of Minho’s uncles, and his parents and aunts are quick to grill the two of you with questions.

In fact, they didn’t even let you inside until you kissed him under the mistletoe that hung over the front porch. You simply pecked him on the cheek, like you have many times before.

You love your best friends family, but how are you supposed to proceed after this? What are you supposed to do for the next family event? And what happens when one of you actually starts dating someone and then you’re reintroduced as his best friend? You and him clearly didn’t think that through. As you watch him goofing off with the gladers you decide that it’ll have to be a problem to deal with later on.

“Minho!” His mother calls out from across the room. “You need to move your car!”

“You are definitely not in any condition to be getting behind the wheel,” you state, watching him hiccup with a glass of Gally’s moonshine in his hand. He chuckles in agreement, and almost stumbles in the process of rummaging for his keys.

“Thanks, Y/N, you’re the best girl-friend ever!” He slurs, laughing at his own pun as you head out, not bothering to put on your coat.

Gritting your teeth at the cold leather seat freezing you through your pants, you move his car so that his aunt can leave, waving goodbye to her as she drives by. You’re very temped to stay in Minho’s car, long enough so it can heat up and you can just bathe in that warmth for a bit before returning inside to play the role of his significant other.

But you don’t. You leave the car and try not to slip on ice as you make your way back in, however a tall figure stands in front of the door and doesn’t move out of your way.

Given the sub-zero temperature and how the said tall figure has been going about his usual routine of ignoring you in social interactions but then glaring at you, it’s fair to say that him standing in your way irritates you.

“Hey Newt,” You don’t bother to hide the annoyance in your voice as you try to non-verbally cue him to move out of the way. But he doesn’t. “Okay, what the hell is your problem?!” You aren’t sure what snapped inside you, but you get along so well with the rest of the gladers that it’s just too frustrating that you’re not being treated like the rest of the group. At this point, you just want to get to the bottom of whatever the issue is. “Why do you hate me- what did I ever do to you?!”

“N-Nothing—” He blinks a few times, taken aback by your sudden outburst.

“Oh really?” A small part of you kinda feels bad because he looks like a deer caught in headlights— completely helpless in an adorable way, his big brown eyes hitting you in a soft spot you didn’t know you had— but that’s not the point here. “Then why is it that you can’t even look at me in the eyes- or-or say more than two words to me? What did I do to make you hate me?”

“I don’t hate you,” he says in a voice so small you have to do a double take to make sure you heard right. “I-I’m sorry if I gave you that impression- wow I-I’m so embarrassed- and surprised Minho hasn’t told you.” Your pissed-off expression quickly turns into a puzzled one as you try to decipher what he’s going on about. “I don’t hate you- it-it’s quite the opposite, actually.”

“Newt, what are you saying?”

He doesn’t say anything for a moment, simply giving you a shrug and a sheepish lopsided smile as he nervously scratches the back of his head.

“I suppose I just don’t know how to act around you- I know it sounds like a load of klunk, but—” You don’t wait to hear the last of his sentence before cutting him off by capturing his lips with yours.

You’re not quite sure what came over you— maybe it’s the spirit of Christmas, the mistletoe you had just noticed has been hanging over your heads, or your plummeting body temperature begging you to get warmer, but you’ve managed to take him by surprise yet again tonight— as well as yourself. He doesn’t respond at first, standing frozen and shocked with his eyes wide, and you pull back before he gets a chance to.

You watch him, trying to gauge his reaction as your panted breaths cloud the air in front of you.

“Wh-what was th- why- did you—” he stutters, still completely shocked and frozen.

“Th-the mistletoe—” You gesture upwards to the hanging branch, and his gaze follows.

“Ah, r-right,” He nods nervously, still not knowing how to feel about what just happened.

“D-Did you really mean what you said before- a-about not hating me?”

Seeing that he’s not the only nervous one here, a small smile curves his lips. He slips a hand around the back of your head, his long fingers lacing through your hair, and he leans down to connect his lips to yours once again. His mouth moves slow, but insistently and— holy shit you’d never had imagined that Newt of all people would be the one leaving you breathless under the mistletoe.

He pulls back only a little, his hand still supporting your head and you can still feel his long eyelashes skimming your cheeks. After catching your breath, you allow your eyelids to flutter open and melt into his gaze.

“I’ve sort of been wanting to do that for some time now,” he admits, biting his lip.

“Then why didn’t you tell me sooner!” You slap his arm, and he seems stunned at first, but then a sheepish grin replaces the shocked expression. “You let me think that you hated me for two years when we could have been dating!?”

“I’m sorry, love,” he chuckles as you roll your eyes.

“Well, better late than never I suppose…”

With that, you grab him by the collar and pull him into a bruising kiss before smoothing your skirt and heading back inside.

Entering the party the once again, you and Newt try not to give anything away, and spend the rest of the night stealing glances that would have the rest of the gladers raising their eyebrows if they weren’t too tipsy to notice.

*BONUS ENDING*

Minho stumbles his way to the upstairs bathroom where he assumes no one else will be, and opens the door to reveal your lips attached to Newt’s jaw, and his hands pulling you tight at your waist while you're sat on the counter.

“wHAT THE FUCK GUYS!?”

You and Newt break apart, stumbling and you brush yourselves off— as if that would make this scene any less awkward.

“When I said I wanted my two best friends to get along I didn’t mean like this at my family Christmas party!”

You and Newt share a sheepish glance; he can’t wipe the goofy smile off his face and his hair is sticking up at odd angles, and you don’t even want to know how much of a mess you must be.

Looking back at Minho, you raise your hands, shrugging, “Uh, we can call it even?”
