I was being a sneak making sure as I kept out of the right arm camp towards to the beach making sure knowone saw me as I went. Holding my bag tightly on my shoulder.
I fought myself a comfortable rock perching my little butt there for the evening looking across the vast sea that seemed utterly endless, with the high sky above with the tinkle of stars I knew these stars well as they had loomed over us in the maze too and I had learnt there many patterns even if I likely called them names knowone but me would understand. The moon hung high a Cresent in the sky but bright enough to see. I moved my bag over my lap pulling out the two sharp wooden sticks I had widdled down over my time in the glade not sharp enough to hurt well unless you where really angry. And my large ball of fluffy white yawn I found on the shops when we first ran from the compound. I took the yawns end unrolling it slightly letting it sit on the rocks with the string to me, I wrapped it around my fingers softly and began to slowly work not even having to look at it after so long of doing it it was gradual but you could watch the long steam of stitches grow as it went on.
"What are you doing love?" I headed a voice ask so immediately shoved everything in my bag and pulled my bag into my chest as I looked and saw a very tried and very confused newt
"Nothing" I answered "why. What are you doing?"
"I woke up from a nightmare and you weren't in bed. I got worried"
"Ohh I'm sorry newt I should have been there"
"It's okay. What are you doing out here?"
"It's a secret"
"... Y/n. I thought we agreed not to keep secrets from each other"
"I know but-"
"Please. Just tell me."
"It's a good secret. A suprise. I can't tell you"
"A suprise? For who?"
"Knowone special" I blushed
"Y/n?"
"Go on. Back to bed I'll be back soon to tuck you in"
"Alright love" he laughed giving my lips a little kiss before he headed back to our tent so I returned to my rock and pressed on with my knitting.

After a while I snuck back into the tent and set my bag in the corner doing my best to crawl back into bed without waking him but almost as soon as I put my bag down he flicked a light on and was sat in bed looking angry at me
"What kinda time do you call this love?"
"Uhhhhh'" I glanced at my watch a moment "two seventeen"
"It was a rhetorical question"
"Oh. Sorry"
"Where have you been I've been worried sick about you"
"I just went down to the sea again"
"Y/n. I know you like going to sit by the sea I do too but you can't keep disappearing without telling me. I get so worried when I wake up without you."
"I'm sorry newt" I smiled sitting on the bed to give him a cuddle and a kiss
"What have you been doing out there anyway?"
"Secrets"
"Fine. Don't tell me" he pouts laying down in bed
"No newt." I whined before laying down with him so he couldn't ignore me "I'd tell you I really would but it's a suprise and your not that good at keeping secrets. It will ruin the surprise please just let me be sneaky for a while long"
"You'll tell me. Soon?"
"Soon I promise"
"Fine." He sighed "so long as it's not a bad secret"
"It's a wonderful secret" I smiled giving his nose a kiss
"You coming to bed now love?"
"Yes I am. Coming to snuggle now" I smiled nuzzling into his chest like I always have
"Good. I really get worried when I wake up alone always scared they taken you again. I just want you in my arms all night so your safe and sound"
"What if I need the bathroom?" I giggled
"Your allowed to go to the bathroom." He rolled his eyes "so long as you tell me first"
"What I have to ask for permission?"
"Maybe"
"And if I don't get my permission?'
"Then you can't go I'm sorry"
"Meanie"
"Well that's what you get when you leave me all alone."
"You get a mean boyfriend"
"Exactly. Goodnight love"
"Goodnight newt"

I smiled as I watched him sleeping so very peacefully slowly I moved his arm from around me and began to climb out of bed but before I got to the edge his arms wrapped around me and forced me back on the bed
"No" he mumbled
"No?"
"You did not ask to leave the arms. How dare you! You must be punished for the crimes of attempted desertion" he says before ticking me
"Ahhhhh newt no! I'm sorry!"
"Your apologies are worthless here. You did not ask for permission you must suffer the consequences"
I grabbed his shirt pulling him to kiss me which he happily did letting our kiss get more intense making him stop his tickles
"I'm sorry I just wanted to suprise you'
"Suprise me with that?"
"A gift"
"A gift?"
"Ummm since it's been getting so cold now I know it's almost the festive time so I've been sneaking out all these days to make your present" I smiled getting out of bed and getting the little box I wrapped with the only paper I could find grey and brown packing paper with a string bow
"Aww that's what you've been up to love? Making me a midwinter present?"
"Of course" I smiled coming to the bed
"Ohh. I haven't made you a present"
"That's okay, I'm sure you'll think of something" I smiled sitting beside him
"I will" he Cooes giving my cheek a kiss "can I have my present?'
"Yes'
"Thank you very much love. But you could have just told me you where doing that I was getting very concerned about you"
"Well I wanted to suprise you" I smiled watching as he opened the box revealing the soft hand knitted blanket
"Awwww is so soft. It's beautiful love. You made it yourself?"
"I did"
"Might have to get you making more things is this lovely" he smiled giving me a kiss "how long have you been knitting?"
"Just a few weeks"
"Ah. It is a bit small for us both or is it just a cosy blanket for me?"
"Well that's the other part of the suprise"
He looked at the blanket seemingly baffled as to what I meant before it clearly clicked in his head "uhhhhhhh..."
"That's why its so little and so soft" I smiled
"You - you- you mean it?" He stuttered excitedly
"I do."
"Your pregnant!"
"I am"
"How long for?"
"Only a few months I think. I've only really been getting symptoms since we got to right arm"
"Ohh thats the best present ever! The best suprise. I love you so so much" he Cooes cuddling me tightly
"I love you too newt"
"You like your present"
"Very much. That's the best suprise I've been had. And I definitely know what sorts of things I can do for your present now" he Cooes
