Newt (TMR)// Garden

Start from the beginning
                                        

"Thank you." I felt relieved.

I grabbed my Wooden crutches and we walked over to the Gardens.

I watched Newt as he worked. He is special to me in a lot of ways.

"Newt?"

"Hm?" He didn't look up, he just pulled up a potato.

"Do you believe in love?" His head snapped over to me.

"What?"

"I mean, you only remember being around guys for three years. And then Teresa came up, and then I came up. It would make sense if you didn't believe in it I guess." I shrugged. "Personally, I do believe in it."

"I- I don't know. I don't think I've ever been in love before. I can't exactly remember. I remember when I saw Teresa for the first time, I thought she was like an alien or something." He laughed. "Then I saw you and my perspectives on some things changed." He sat in front of me.

"Like what?" I played with a piece of grass in my hands, tying it in knots, and peeling it apart.

"Well, I thought you were beautiful for one. And that night that you woke up, you calmed down so quickly and you just listened to us without knowing us. You believed what we said without having any proof. You seemed comfortable."

"That's cause you calmed me down. Your voice and your accent."

His cheeks got slight pink at my words.

He took a deep breath in.

"Yeah, I believe in love, y/n." He looked up at me.

I gulped and exhaled.

"Cool." I played with the grass again.

He got back to working and I got back to watching him work.

After a while I got bored.

"Hey Newt, I'm gonna go walk around the woods okay. I need a change of scenery."

"What, am I not good enough for ya?" He joked.

I scoffed and smiled. "You're too good for me." I mumbled, then walked away by myself.

The woods were pretty. The light shone through all the leaves and branches.

I saw Ben.

"Hey Ben," I smiled at him. He looked rough. "Are you okay?" My eyebrows scrunched together.

He wasn't talking, he was just walking towards me.

I saw the black veins.

Shit. He got stung in the middle of the day?

"Ben..."

He started running towards me, so I I screamed and hit him with my crutch.

I still had one, so I held it and wobbled away, keeping my crutch in my hands in case I have to use it.

"Help!" I yelled out, hoping somebody would hear me.

Ben caught up fast, since he was a runner as well. I saw the clearing and ducked through it. I threw my other crutch at him. I hopped out of the woods and into the open. He tackled me viscously. I screamed once more as he leaned down, closing in on me. I started crying.

"YOU USELESS SHUCK!" He growled at me.

I screamed once more and two guys held him back, Newt helped me up and held me in his arms while I cried.

"Hey, hey, are you okay love?"

I nodded quickly and buried my face in his chest. He began rubbing my back with his hand and calmed me down.

"What happened?"

"He got stung, Newt. In the day time. He attacked me and called me useless."

"You're not useless y/n."

"I can't do my job, Newt.  I sit alone in my hut all day doing nothing because I twisted my shucking ankle! I can't help you in the gardens. That's exactly what useless is." I sighed.

He started getting angry. "You are not useless y/n. You're my best friend. Your ankle will be healed soon okay love? I promise you everything will be fine."

I took a long deep breath in, and exhaled.

"You're right. You're my best friend..."

He looked a little sad, but he's probably just freaked out about what just happened.

"Newt, can I be honest with you?"

"Always." He nodded.

"I don't want to be your friend. I'm tired of it."

"Oh... if that's what will make you happy..."

"No, I mean I want to be more than friends."

"You do?" He asked hopefully.

"Yes. I think that I love you."

"I think I love you too, y/n." He smiled.

We shared a sweet, yet rough, kiss; and went on with our daily duties: His being gardening, and mine being watch him garden.
