What is Love?(Newt x reader)

Chapter 32:Passed Him The Gun

"You were meant to!" I shouted back.

"Rude!" He yelled and started fake crying, "I'm hurt!"

We carried on walking through the blithering heat, the red sun shining down on us. We've been walking for hours with no stop.

"Hey guys, there's some sort of old building there lets have a break!" Minho announced.

We all sighed in relief and walked quickly to the shelter. It was some old ruins but it had shade. All of us sat down. Newt and I sat against a wall, his arm around my shoulders, Emmy on my lap, her head on my chest. I could tell she was getting tired, she was only four after all.

"Why don't you try to go to sleep, princess?" Newt asked, also noticing she was tired.

"Can you tell me a story?" She asked with puppy eyes.

"Course. What type of story?" He asked.

"Tell me about you and mummy." She replied.

"Okay. Once upon a time there was a boy, he woke up in a dark box with no memories. He suddenly heard a noise-" I dramatically gasped, "-It was a girl 'Are you okay?' the girl asked, 'I don't rememb-' the boy was cut off by a blaring alarm, the girl tried to stand up but ended up falling on top of the boy. The box was then opened, bright light spilled into the confined space. They were brought out of the box and realised they were in a place called 'the glade' it was surrounded by a giant maze with monsters in it. The boy and the girl had to share a room, but at the start they didn't like each other very much, they always argued and called each other names. But then the boy got into an accident and the girl looked after him, that's when the boy noticed how beautiful and caring the girl was. They became friends, best friends even, they were practically joined at the hip. And that's when he realised he was in love with the girl, the girl was also in love with him. They started dating and after a year and a half the boy knew he wanted her forever, he asked her to marry him and to his surprise she said yes. So they got married and ended up escaping the maze. And now we're here." He explained.

"Aww, Newt, come here." I said and pulled him into a sweet kiss.

"I always cry at that story!" Minho cried over dramatically.

"You guys are so cute." Anna said.

The girl on my lap was now fast asleep.

"Hey, where's Thomas?" I asked.

"He went to check if he could see the mountains from here." Frypan explained.

Newt got up and went to the edge of the wall, "Hey, how's it going?!" He yelled.

"Just a little closer!" Thomas shouted.

"Well that doesn't sound very convincing." Newt said.

A loud bang suddenly went through the air, Emmy woke up screaming and I jumped in surprise.

Jack was holding a gun in his hand Newt quickly ran up and got it from him, we all got up from our sitting positions and Thomas sprinted in.

"What happened!?" He yelled frantically.

"I don't know, he just woke up and grabbed the gun then he tried to..." Frypan explained.

Jack got up on his knees and started coughing up black blood.

"Jack, are you okay?" Thomas asked frantically.

He kept coughing and when he stopped he laid down on the ground gasping for breath.

"It's growing." Jack said and then lifted up his shirt, his stomach was covered in black veins and scratches, black blood was pouring out of the deep cuts. "I'm not gonna make it." He said. "Please. Please." He said putting his hand out for Newt to give him the gun. "Don't let me turn into one of those things."

Newt looked down and sighed, he looked at the gun in his hand and then started walking forward towards Jack. He crouched down beside him, reached out his hand and gave him the gun.

"Thank you." Jack said. "Now get outta here."

"Goodbye Jack." Newt said. He then got up, grabbed his things and started walking away, taking Emmy with him.

I crouched down in front of Jack, "Go." He said. I sighed, tears welling up in my eyes.

"I'm sorry w-we couldn't save you." I said, he smiled at me.

"Take care of them, YN." He said. I nodded, got up, got my things and followed behind Newt and Emmy.

They didn't get far, they were walking slowly so it wasn't hard to catch up with them. Newt stopped as he saw me, he turned to me and then pulled me into a hug. Tears started falling down my cheeks.

"Shh, it's alright, he won't feel the pain anymore." Newt whispered and kissed my head, Emmy then hugged both of our legs. "Aww, princess, come here." Newt said and picked Emmy up helping her join our hug. The three of us pulled away, Emmy was still sitting on Newt's hip. He kissed my lips and then her cheek.

"I love you, Newt." I said.

"I love you too, YN." He replied.

The others soon came out and we started slowly walking away, Newt standing next to me carrying Emmy, the girl already asleep in his arms.

We continued to walk when the sound of a gun shot echoed through the air. We all stopped in our tracks just taking a breath. After a couple of minutes we started walking again.
