"Y/N!" A voice called down the school corridor towards the library. You winced. Trust Newt to find me. You thought bitterly, as you turned to face the direction of Newt's voice. Newt grinned sheepishly as he approached, realizing how damn loud he was. "Yes, Newt?" You were in no mood to speak to anyone today including lovely Newt. Newt coughed, as he spoke, "I ran into you brother today" he started, covered by fake coughs. Ah he knew. You thanked god how Newt actually seemed to understand you current position, how he came about things like this. You glared, "Did you now?" Your mouth twitched. Newt nodded, and crossed his arms biting the inside of his mouth and started a new approach, "You've been gone for how long? Two to three weeks"
"And?" You replied,
He raised his eyebrows, "And? Bloody hell Y/N..." grabbing your arm, he guided you through the throng of people, out of the corridor and into the quad. "...this is serious Y/N, why didn't you tell me?"
You closed you eyes, "How was I meant to tell you?"
Newt looked trapped, but he continued carefully. "You could of told me that you're"
You sighed, "that I was cutting myself?" You snapped,
Newt shrugged, "Not like that"
You forced yourself to smile. "Thanks for the concern Newt" you patted his shoulder, "But I don't need your pity" You went to turn back to the direction of the library. "Obviously you do need my pity" he mumbled, "Y/N, you were put in hospital because of it, I could've helped"
"How?" You spat, turning to face him again. He shrugged, and you took a good look at him. Oh Newt only is you knew. "I could've-"
"Hide all the freaking sharp objects in the place!"
He paused, "Yeah... I could've got you help-"
"I don't need help" you snarled, storming off into the direction of your next class. Newt caught your arm. "Y/N you aren't making this any easier for me"
You stopped, "What do you really want?"
Newt smiled again. You almost smiled too. God Newt, you and that smile. "What I really want is to do is:
Number one: Help you
Number two: Finish school
Number three: Throw all my bloody tests out the window" You couldn't help but laugh. His grinned grow, "Ah see I can help you"
You punched him playfully in the shoulder, "Thank you, I really mean that, but I don't need your help"
Newt gave you a look that said, are-you-sure-because-I'm-not.
You scowled as the bell rung. So much as to get a book out. Newt nudged you on the shoulder, "See you at lunch - and don't think of skipping it"
You smiled, rolling your e/c eyes, "I won't"
