Newt woke with a start as he looked around. 'Why am I in a bloody hospital? Wait Theseus? Why is Theseus next to me? I thought I was with Tina in New York. Wait that man, Grindelwald's follower. Where is he? Oh, Merlin, we are in danger.' Newt thought with panic forming inside. Newt looked over to his sleeping brother. It made him laugh because Theseus was reading, and the book is on his face while he slept. What warmed Newt's heart however was the book that Theseus was reading. It was his book: Fantastic Beasts and where to find them. Newt smiled and tried to sit up but winced in pain as he does so. Newt let out a cry that woke Theseus. Theseus's eyes snapped open when he heard his little brother's cry.
"Newton are you ok?" Theseus asked taking the book off his eyes making Newt laugh a little, but he winced again. "Newt stay down. Your ribs are broken,"
'Right that idiot kicked me.' Newt thought looking at his brother. Then the thought of Grindelwald's follower out running around trying to wipe everyone's memories. "Theseus that man did you get him?" Newt asked making Theseus raise an eyebrow.
"What do you mean the man Newt?" Theseus asked putting the book on the table by Newt's bed. Newt looked at him like he was crazy.
"That man. The one who did this, the one who kidnapped me and wiped my memory. How can you forget him, big brother?" Newt was confused why his brother did not know what he was talking about. Then it clicked into Theseus's mind.
"Right, don't worry about him little brother, we got him," Newt smiled at his brother and met his eyes.
"Theseus, I remember everything," Newt said while he was still meeting his brother's eyes. Theseus looked at him with tears in his eyes.
"You do?" Theseus choked out voice filled with tears and happiness. Newt gave him a smile and nodded however he did not say anything. Theseus understood his silence so he stayed quiet. When neither brother spoke both brothers fell quiet.
Newt was reading the newspaper when Theseus tapped him on the shoulder. Newt looked up from the paper to look to his brother but he did not meet his eyes. "Yes, Theseus?" Newt said looking to the wall now.
"The healers say you can go home later today, but they said that I have to look after you," Newt sighed and then nodded.
"Ok, Thees. I understand. That man you did not kill him did you?" Newt asked voice shakey. Theseus looked at him with a sigh and shook his head.
"No, little brother I did not, I wanted to though,"
"Theseus, I understand. Why do you all ways want to kill people that did you wrong?" This was a heavy question for Theseus. He can't believe that Newt asked this. Theseus did not answer however all he did was shake his head and looked to the door. Newt sighed and again nodded. "What time am I getting out of this bloody place?" Newt asked after a pause. Theseus laughed at his brother's wording.
"They said later little brother," Theseus said looking at his brother with a smile. Newt sighed again and closed his eyes. Theseus watched as he fell asleep.
Newt woke to his brother shaking him awake. "Wake up little brother. You're getting out of this hellhole," Newt laughed but then winced in pain. Theseus sighed and helped Newt to his feet. Then Theseus walked Newt out the door. Newt was slightly annoyed at his brother when he fussed over him when they got back to Theseus's house, or the Scamander manor.
"Theseus, I'm fine really," Newt said annoyed. However, Theseus was in big brother mode and all he did was huff.
"No your not Newton. Let me take care of you," Theseus protested as he fussed over his baby brother. Newt sighed and allowed his brother to make him comfortable. "Now rest Newton. You need it," Newt sighed and closed his eyes. Theseus smiled and left the room. However when Theseus was gone Newt's eyes opened. Newt then carefully got out of bed and went to his case that was by his bed. Newt then opened the lid and went inside.
Theseus sighed as he sat down in his living room in his favorite reading chair by the fireplace. Theseus closed his eyes in his own tiredness. He did not realize how tired he was. Theseus was asleep in two minutes. Theseus, however, woke when he realized that he left Newt's case in his room right by the bed. Knowing Newt he would be inside with his beasts. Theseus slapped himself in the face and walked over to his little brother's room. Theseus sighed to calm himself and then knocked on the door. He then knowing Newt, he will not answer. Theseus sighed again and opened the door. Theseus sighed to himself again when he saw the case on the floor. The war hero then knocked on the case and then sat on the bed and waited.
Newt was inside his shed looking at his picture of Leta with tears in his eyes when he heard the knock on the case's lid. "Theseus," he said as he tried to wipe the tears from his eyes, but he did not get out of the case. For he did not want to. "Merlin, Leta can you believe him. He wouldn't stop. He's just too much sometimes," Newt said to the picture. Little did he know Theseus was standing behind him also with tears in his eyes.
"I miss her too little brother," Newt turned around fast to see his older brother standing behind him. Newt wiped the tears from his eyes. Newt, however, did not say anything as he let out a shaky sigh. Theseus watched as Newt tried to wipe the tears in his eyes. "It's ok Newt, I know how you feel don't worry we can get through this and bring that bastard down for what he did," Newt smiled and met his eyes. "Can, can I, I hug you, little brother. I know you don't like them but," Newt slowly nodded. Theseus smiled a little and pulled his brother in for a hug. "let's get out of here. I'm hungry. Come on let's go out to eat. I'll buy," Newt smiled as Theseus pulled him out of his arms. For the first time ever Newt did not want to let go of his brother: he just wanted to stay in his arms forever.
"I will try not to draw attention. As you know older brother: I'm famous," Theseus laughed and rolled his eyes.
"Yeah ok, little brother," Theseus laughed. "I love you book by the way," Newt smiled as they walked out of Newt's case. "Newt," Newt looked at Theseus but not in his eyes.
"Yes," Newt said as he put out his coat and put his wand inside.
"When we get back, you are going right back to bed," Newt nodded and walked to the door with Theseus behind him.
