For the whole night. The girl chats with Thomas and Teresa about random things and things about the Glade. They keep on blabbing the Gladers names and the girl Greenbean memorizing each one.
"So the two Med-Jacks..." She points at the two at the other side near the camp fire. She points at the guy with brown locks.
"He's Clint" she points at the guy beside him with the sleeveless shirt. "He's Jeff"
Both Thomas and Teresa nods and she continues.
She points at the Keep of the Builders:
The blonde haired boy with tall and buffy figure.
"Gally?"
"The keeper of the Builders, intimidating and tough?"
More like questioning instead of stating. Thomas nods and points the guys besides the Keepers, The Runners: she finds a specific guy. The Keeper.
"And he is... Mi..." She trails off, Teresa continues for her.
"Minho, the Diva Of Sarcasm" She laughs. The girl's eyes widens, Is it okay to call him that?
"Don't worry, Everyone does that to each other. He actually likes the title." Thomas feels her uneasiness. She nods slowly.
"Why is he called like that?" She asks.
"Well. He's a total diva shank, You see he's good at being sarcastic and being stubborn and he sometimes act like a diva" Thomas says while looking at Minho.
And we continued. Then She continues to name and give description to everyone including Thomas and Teresa.
"Well, I know all of your names, All I have to do is remember mine" She laughs. The other two also laughs and then it hit Thomas.
"Greenie, You forgot one more!" Her eyebrows narrows with the sudden confusion. Teresa quickly understands him and searches for 'him'.
Thomas eyes settles to a certain blonde on the other side of the Glade, he was on the overlooking tower. It's amazing how he can search the blonde boy from a sight and not to mention it was dark.
"There!" Thomas points at him, Greenie follows his eyes to where it was pointing, Her heart suddenly freezes.
"Newt" She says.
"The Second-in-Command, The Keeper of the Fields. Bloody British, He has a limp never tells anyone about it except for the First Commander, Has a really caring, loving image. The most 'Human' I've ever met. " She says, never leaving her eyes on the male.
"Seems like you two got to know each other already" Teresa smiles. She looks back and nods. She excuses herself and runs towards the tower. She climbs up and peeks before climbing on the same place where Newt sits. She hides for awhile.
"You know I won't bloody harm you, Shank." He speaks, taking her off guard and she slowly climbs in and sits besides him.
"I don't mean to interrupt you. " She says in a low tone.
"I know. You miss me?" He jokes and a hint of pink show on her face. Well half of what he said is real. She really want to be with him, by his side.
" Really?" She asks him with a disgusted look, he laughs.
"I know you do. I was watching you from here. You kinda were looking for me" She rolls her eyes and tells him her achievements.
"Good that, I want to hear more from you again" he says.
"Oh yeah, Newt" She asks. He turns to look at her.
"I noticed. You're the only British here in the Glade, Don't you feel lonely?" She asks. He laughs, his eyes closing. It was a wonderful sight to see.
"Well, Blame the Bloody Creators for putting such handsome man in such horrible place" His accent really showing off. She blush unknowingly, It was melodic in her ears. It was like listening to her favorite ballad song, if she still remembers what it is.
She laughs at his remarks. Handsome man? Is this the other side of Newt?
"Yeah, How unfortunate to have such handsome man in a place like this... You've probably have a wonderful life. Before" She states watching the stars with him, It was breathless, There were thousands of stars painted on the sky, They are beautiful.
"Well, Maybe. " He says, She shift her attention to him, She feel awful for Newt, The guy was probably from a very good family, I mean you could see it in his attitude. He deserves freedom, All of them does. She observes his face, square jaw, dirty blonde hair,
"Say, Newt. I was wondering if you've been in a relationship before?" She asks, sucking all of her pride. He was taken aback by her sudden question. She blushes so did he. His heart aches in such weird feeling, Keep it together.
" Why ask?"
" Listen, I'm only telling you this because it's the truth." She says looking intently into his eyes. He nods. She clears her throat and speaks:
"There's no denying that you in fact are good looking. Every girl would love to be in your arms and call you 'theirs'. Your looks are such a waste!" She beams, Newt chuckles and ruffles her hair making her pout. She's adorable.
"Thanks for the bloody compliment. " He says. She roll her eyes with annoyance.
"At least I gave you a bloody handsome compliment" she says with a british accent, He laughs and praises her for her perfect British accent. It was exotic.
"Remind me when we get out of here to pretend to be my bloody British friend to my American friends" He jokes making both of them laugh again until they're out of breath. Their laughter died later on, catching their breaths and Greenie wiping a tear from the corner of her eyes from laughing.
Newt lands his eyes on her and smiles at her sweetly. She then meets his eyes.
"I haven't laugh like this since I came here." He says
"Thank you"
She shrugs her shoulders telling him like it was no big deal. She returns his smile.
They stay there for awhile staring at each other, Until Newt lands his eyes on her lips. He leans slowly, she stays still and also focus her eyes on his lips then she slowly leans closer to meet his lips. They were inches apart. Her hand was placed on the floor with an uncomfortable position making her arm give in resulting to not share a kiss but instead to brush their lips. Her heart was beating like damn it was like running from to a shucking corner to corner of the maze. Both of their faces were red, her face lands on his chest, her other free hand placed on his chest.
They both close their eyes from the epic scene that happened, We're about to kiss, she thoughts. Shuck. That was close, He thought.
They both pull back. He clears his throat and speaks: (breaking the awkwardness)
"Sorry about that, I just have the sudden urge to kiss you" He says honestly, he chuckles lightly. She never felt such disappointment in life.
"It's okay, We never kissed anyway" She says with a smile. We almost kissed! Her heart was still beating hard, it was hard enough to be heard from outside. Newt's face flustered in deep red.
He chuckles. He looks at her.
"We better get you a place to stay, It's already late" She nods and moves away. They both stand up and head down to the Homestead.
The other Gladers were fixing the bonfire and the others were asleep already. Alby was one of the people who were left behind to clean things up. Newt grabs a torch from another Glader.
The Greenie and Newt went to him.
"Where were you? " Alby asks with his emotionless face. Is Alby like this all the time?
"I just took her for a walk" Newt lied. Just go with it.
"Go take her to the Homestead, Let her rest. She has alot to do tomorrow, All of us" Alby says and the two take their leave and head out to the Homestead.
It was cold in night. Newt notices her shivering and wraps his arms around her instantly without hesitation. Her eyes widens with the sudden contact. She slowly look up to meet his brown eyes.
"Don't think this in a wrong way, I'm just heating you up. Making you warm." He says. She nods and they continue to head towards the Homestead.
Finally they reached their destination. Most of the Gladers were asleep and some of them still chatting and some were trying to fall asleep.
As they walk along inside the Homestead, She latch her hand on Newt's hoodie and keeps her head low. As they pass, the Gladers greets Newt with a 'Goodnight' and he returns with a nod. Some greets the Greenie with a 'Goodnight' and she could only avert her eyes from them, She's not good with people. She's only herself when she knows the person for example: Newt, Thomas and Teresa. So far they're the people she can trust.
They've reached the place, He turns to her with a smile.
"Well for now, You'll take my place" He says and fixes things up inside the room. She look around and she felt safe, It was really cozy inside.
"Newt... Where are you going to sleep?" She asks, He smiles and sighs.
"Well I have to sleep with the Gladers" I don't want to be left alone.
"Please don't go. I need someone with me, I kind of hate being alone especially in the dark" She says honestly. His eyes widens, His heart raced a thousand miles. He comes closer to her and places the torch on the side.
He messes her hair.
"I won't" she blushes and smiles.
