The maze runner: If I live (Newt x reader)

Chapter 11

Hi guys! I made this chapter a bit smaller than usual because it has a lot of things going on in it. :)

Today was box day and everyone was curious to see if it would be a boy or another girl who came up this month. I (obviously) had already kinda claimed Y/n in my friend group so I think everyone else is waiting for their girl to come up. I woke up this morning quite early compared to how I usually wake up and surprisingly Y/N was already awake. I knew she was an early bird but I was nearly positive that I was going to beat her to the kitchen today, apparently not. She was sitting at the table with a book in her hand and a cup of coffee in the other. she was almost crouching over the book, as she seemed very engrossed by it. I got my breakfast served from Fry and I sat down next to her tucking my legs underneath the bench and tapping her on the shoulder. "Y/n... Y/n!" I said as she wasn't answering me. "Ugh, yeah! sorry, I'm really tired today." she said while rubbing her eyes sleepily. "Yeah, I can see that'' I said playfully and she replied "hey!" while lightly punching my shoulder. "You know the box is coming up today?" I asked her once she finally looked up from her book. "Yeah, I do. I wonder if it's gonna be a boy or a girl this time" she said looking at me now. "Which would you prefer?" I questioned and she replied shrugging " I don't mind but to be honest I would like another girl" she told me "Yeah that's what most of the boys want to" "Most?" she asked me and I smiled "Yeah, except me. I'm happy with what I've got" I said, smirking at her as she looked away from me, probably blushing. After doing some hours of work and teaching Y/N how to use a new tool that came up in the box with her, we finally heard Gally scream at us from the box. "Guys.., Guys! The box is coming up, quick" everyone dropped what they were doing and ran to the box completely abandoning their work. We all listened to the box coming up and there was silence except from the creaking and banging from it. I felt Y/N come and stand next to me and I looked over to her, smiling. I know that it was my fault that she was so tired, last night I should have just left her to sleep but I didn't. I just kept on talking, and talking and making kre and more conversation. No wonder she's shattered, I would be as well if I wasn't used to going to bed at 1:00. The box came up and up and up until we heard a loud back and the lights turned green. The doors slowly opened and everyone crowded around the door. I couldn't see a thing but by the groans of disappointment I could guess that it was a boy. Once everyone had cleared off only me, Y/n and Gally were left and we finally got a good look at him. He looked roughly 17-18 year old, he looked very tall, he had jet black hair and was very muscular. I couldn't see his eyes very well from a distance but the only thing that I noticed about his eyes were what they were fixated on. Y/n.
