"Okay so I've called this gathering because of our new, and first, girl greenie," Alby announced.

I had only been here a week and let me tell you, it had been a bloody long week. The room was filled with every glader, which happened to be only 12. He had me sit in a single chair in the front of the room.

"So I've noticed the amount of attention this girl has gotten and it's unacceptable."

"Well its not my fault I haven't seen a girl in a year," Gally smirked and sent me a wink. I blushed looking at my feet pretending I hadn't heard.

"There will be no relationships with (Y/N) at any cost. She's one of us now and having you shanks fight over her is not allowed."

"Oh come on Alby!" Different keepers yelled as I looked up at Newt. His eyes were on me with a worried and upset look so I directed my eyes back to the ground.

"Why aren't you fighting back greenie?" He asked as the room suddenly fell quiet.

"Because it's not like any of you shanks are gonna fall in love with me. You just want to... touch me," I spat and picked the dirt under my nails.

"My statement stands. If I see anyone make a move or if she comes to me about something one of you shanks did, you'll get one night in the pit. Got it?" The boys all groaned a 'yeah' before Alby ended the gathering and left the room with a few boys trailing quickly behind.

Every boy had left until it was only me and Newt who hadn't moved from leaning against a large rod of wood. "Why do you think a boy couldn't love you?"

He moved to sit beside me on the bench as I shifted slightly. I had to admit it now, I had a huge crush on this blond headed boy. That's why i didn't stick up for myself. Because I knew he didn't love me or any other boy so why even have me as an option?

"Because I'm unlovable. Besides, none of them would have actual feelings for me. They would just miss the comfort of a girl not that they loved me," I said as soft as my voice would allow over a whisper.

"But greenie-," he began but I placed my hand over his. When he slightly jumped, I retracted my hand back into my lap.

"It's fine Newt. I think we should just go get something to eat," I offered as he nodded and stood up with his hand held out for me.

"Come on madame," he said very sophisticatedly.

"Why thank you kind sir," I giggled and took his hand as he wrapped our elbows together with my laughs filling the room.

Newt's POV

It had been two months since Alby made the rule not to date (Y/N) and honestly it was getting to me. I realized a week ago I was in love with her.

I loved the way she mimicked what other people did to fit in. I loved how she would put her fingers in her back pockets when she was nervous. I loved her soft (Y/E/C) eyes, her (Y/H/L) (Y/H/C) hair and her pink lips.

I loved how she worked with me in the gardens everyday. I loved the nickname she gave me, Newtie, one night when she had too much of Gally's drink and she loved it so much the next day it stuck. I loved how she laughed, how she ate, how she walked.

I loved it when she talked to me even though it gave me butterflies. I loved how red her cheeks would get when I would complement her. I loved everything about her yet she didn't think I could.

"Newt may I speak to you," Alby asked approaching (Y/N) and I who happened to be working in the gardens.

"Oh no, how will I make if without your wonderful gardening," she giggled and tucked a piece of hair behind her ear.

"I'm sure you'll manage," I smiled as she giggled some more and continued pulling out the fresh fruit.

Alby walked me to the box which had been empty and stood looking at me with furrowed eyebrows. I just stared back utterly confused as he looked over to the gardens and back to me.

"You love (Y/N) don't you?" He asked.

My cheeks flushed red as I scoffed and pushed my hair back. "Pfft no no I don't."

"You do Newt. I can see it by the way you look at her," he said before signing. "I know I made the rule on no relationships but I see how she looks at you and it's obvious you both are utterly in love."

"What are you saying?" He rolled his eyes as if it was obvious.

"Go get her Newt." I couldn't help but smirk as I thought about what to say to her. What would I tell her? I couldn't just come out and say I'm in love with you, could I?

"I need to go figure out what to tell the other boys when they see you two," Alby chuckled and walked off to the homestead.

I couldn't hide my smirk as I limped back to the gardens. She looked a little suspicious as to why I was smirking as she stopped working.

"What's got you so giddy?" She asked as my smile faded.

"Will you meet me behind the homestead after the doors close, please?" I asked.

"Sure," she giggled with a hint of worry on face.

"Now get back to work, love," I smirked as she rolled her eyes.

"Sure thing boss," she teased and mocked me in a salute. Today was going to be a long day.

(Y/N)'s POV

I had been thinking about Newt all day, well more than usual. Today was one of the longest days as he continued to work with me almost a little too happy. What did he need to tell me?

I checked my watch, something only keepers, Newt, Alby and I were so graciously allowed to have. The doors were supposed to close right about now as I checked my hair to make sure I looked good. I looked presentable.

I walked to where Newt asked me to meet him when I slipped my hands in my back pockets. Newt came around the other side as our smiles both rose on our cheeks.

"Hi (Y/N)," he said standing in front of me looking a nervous wreck.

"Hey Newtie," I smiled using the nickname only I was allowed to use.

"I need to tell you something," he said taking my hands. Oh no. Did I do something?

"Ever since you woke up in that box I knew there was something special about you, well besides the fact that you were a girl." He stuttered a little as I let out a soft giggle and returned my eyes to his deep browns one I came to love. "Well you've changed me so much. You make me happy just when you walk in the room, you give me butterflies every time you touch my hand and I think about you every second of the day."

He took a small step forward limiting the distance between us. "I really like you (Y/N). Shuck I think I love you! I just I really want to be with you and I have Alby's permission so will you be my girlfriend?"

I stared at him stunned. The boy whom I had been in love with for weeks just told me he loves me. "I love you too."

"You do?" He practically yelled at me. I giggled and pulled his hands closer to me so he would move in. "I do."

"May I kiss you?"

"Yes please," I smiled as his soft fingers cupped my cheeks. His thumb ran over my cheek as I placed my hand on his neck with my eyes glancing from his eyes to his lips.

He finally pulled me into his lips as time stopped. His lips were warm, soft and the right wetness. He controlled the speed as we moved our lips in sync. I was kissing him!

He broke the kiss first but left our bodies and hands still. "I've wanted to do that forever."

"Want to do it again?" I giggled.

"Yes please," he smirked quoting me. He crashed our lips together except this kiss was harder and more passionate but all together perfect.

Needless to say that night was spent with lots of hand holding and hugs around the bonfire.
