DISLAIMER- I DO NOT OWN TMR OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS EXCEPT BELLE
Belle POV:
Newt's room wasn't the biggest it had a small bed in the corner. You couldn't really call it a bed it was more a lot of pillows piled on top of each other. and a small chest in the other corner which was open with clothes and materials sticking out of it. Newt pointed to the 'bed'
"You can sleep on there I'll sleep on the hammock" and before I could argue he went over to the chest and pulled out a dark green hammock "Don't worry I like the hammocks better" He said reassuringly and smiled which I returned
I was curious about the note but decided not to ask it did say that only Newt could read it but did that mean I couldn't read it. Maybe I just wrote on the envelope maybe I didn't write the note inside. I was confused. Really confused.
While he was sorting out his hammock I decided to ask him about the boy who tried to. I didn't want to finish that sentence I was just lucky he was there.
"Where did you take him?" Newt turned to me a confused look on his face "George"
"I took him to the slammer and I'm going to tell Ably about it in the mourning. I don't want to ruin the bonfire it's the only time we have to relax"
"The slammer?"
"It's like our jail"
"Oh" Newt finished tying the hammock up "Goodnight Greenie"
I sat on my bed "My names Belle"
"It still won't stop me from calling you Greenie, Greenie" He smirked and tried to sit on the hammock but instead rolled right over the other side with a loud thump
"You deserved that" I said while laughing. A lot
He climbed back into the hammock more cautiously this time
"Goodnight Shuck face" He said
"Goodnight Newtie" I said while smirking
I heard him sit up in his hammock and almost falling out. "Don't ever call me that again" He demanded
"Only if you never call me Greenie or Greenbean or anything like that. Deal?"
"Good that" He said
What the hell does that mean?
"What?"
"Goodnight Belle" He said I could tell he was tired because he yawned while saying it. I also hoped he'd fall out of his hammock again while sleeping. That would be funny
I was about to say goodnight when I heard gentle snoring coming from the boy and soon I was asleep too
^0^
I was rudely awakened by being shaken awake. I opened my eyes as I was about to scream for help. Or Newt because I thought it was another drunk teenager but a hand was held over my mouth. As my eyes adjusted I was Newt standing in front of he. I bit his hand
"Ow. What the shuck?" He asked and pulled his hand away
His hand didn't taste very good
"What were you doing?" I asked him in a shouted whisper
"I needed to show you something" He told me
"And you smothered me with you hand because?" I asked
"Most of the Greenies scream their heads off and wake everyone up and everyone hates me all day" I remembered that I was going to scream for help. He knew the Greenies too well. I then cursed myself for using Glader words
"Oh sorry" I apologized
"It's ok" He pulled me out of bed "Now come on I need to show you something" He lead me through the 'Deadheads' until we reached a large bush of ivy he pushed it out the way to reveal a window
"Why did you bring me to see a window?" I asked he turned to me then back at the window
As soon as he turned back an eerie light was shone through the window. The light danced along Newt's face and hair. He turned to me and began his speech
"Out there's the maze" He began something told me he had said this speech many times before. "Everything we do- our whole life, Green-" He stopped himself "Belle-revolves around the maze. Every lovin' second of every lovin' day we spent in honour of the maze, tryin' to solve somthin' that's not shown us a bloody solution, ya know? And we want to show ya why it's not to be messed with. Show ya why them buggin' walls close every night. Show ya why ya why you should never, never find your butt out there"
Newt stepped back, still holding on to the ivy vines. He gestured for me to look. Even though I really didn't want to whatever's out there sounded terrifying but I took my place next to the window and looked through
At first I saw nothing but darkness but then I saw it.
A large, bulbous creature the size of a cow but with no real distinct shape twisted and seethed along the ground in the corridor of the outside. It climbed the opposite wall, then leaped at the thick-glassed window with a loud thump.
I jumped back with a loud squeak and found myself right up against Newt I quickly stepped away from him.
"What was that thing?" I asked him
"Grievers, we call 'em?" He answered "Nasty buggers eh? Just be glad that the Grievers only come out at night. Be thankful for those walls."
I felt myself swallow where the hell was I?
"Now you know what bloody lurks in the maze, my friend. Now you know this isn't joke time. You've been sent to the Glade, Bella" Bella? I like it. It's nice "We'll be expectin' ya to survive and help us do what we've been sent here to do"
"And what's that?" I asked curiously
Newt turned and looked at me and I could see every part of his gorgeous face. Wait gorgeous? I barely know him
"Find our way out, Bella" He said "Solve the buggin' maze and find our way home"
"Bella?" I asked
"Sorry don't you like it"
"I do" I insisted
"Come on lets get you something to eat" he said but before he could walk away
"Newt?"
"Yeah?"
"Your hands taste horrible by the way" He smirked
^0^
We spent about ten minutes talking when we realised it was time for wake up we walked out of the Deadheads and over to the kitchens when I noticed Gally walk over he looked really angry and he held a piece of paper in his hand. It took a second to realise
It was the note.
Thank you so much for the reviews and for reading. I was a little put off after the first chapter after getting a review saying my story was 'too original' because it's a Newt love story but thank you for reviewing, favouriteing and following! It might be awhile until I update this or The Betrayer's Sister because I have the end of year exams coming up so I need to revise. Thank you for reading.
Byee
