Lonely Omega •Newtmas•

•Sixteen•

"You're right," Thomas says softly. Newt backed away, he can't be close to Thomas, he just can't. Whenever Thomas is close, Newt seems to act different, he becomes submissive, he cooperates, he does as he's told.

Fuck, but why?!

~•~

Newt didn't go to his first period class. He's locked himself in one of the stalls in the bathroom and he's sniffing his backpack. His mind is blank, he can only think about one thing.

Thomas.

The alphas scent seemed to have transferred onto his bag where Thomas was holding it and Newt can't stop smelling it. The moment he put it on, all he could smell was him. He was trying to go to class but it became overwhelming and he caved to the scent.

How could Thomas' scent be so strong? He didn't scent mark the item, he didn't do anything but pick it up! Now Newt is fully engulfed in the scent and he's having very mixed feelings about it.

The scent makes him feel warm and fuzzy, but it also makes Newt feel sick. Why is he in the bathroom sniffing that alphas scent after he shoved Newt into a locker? Newt should hate him for it, he should be repulsed by the scent.

But it smells so good. Newt doesn't even notice his tail wagging against the toilet seat he's sitting on. He rubs against his bag subconsciously, trying to spread the scent onto him so he can enjoy it everywhere.

This isn't normal behaviour, Newt tells himself, but his inner wolf couldn't care less. He'd be licking the bag if he could; trying to get a taste of Thomas.

He lets out a small whine as the irresistible scent begins to fade away. Newt looks up at the ceiling, as if he could see the scent vanishing into thin air. Panic starts to course through Newt as his senses slowly return back to him.

The omega has no reason to be so obsessed with the scent, especially after Thomas' little stunt! He stands up and unlocked the stall door, storming off in a hurry to get to his class.

He arrives late and the teacher doesn't say a word, he just sighs and continues teaching. Newt takes out all his stuff before he realizes Teresa is in the seat next to him, again.

"I saw what happened before class," she whispers to him. Newt just rolls his eyes in annoyance. Teresa is incredibly snoopy.

"I'm pretty sure the whole bloody school saw it," he grumbles quietly while taking notes to catch up. The two obviously aren't alone in the halls, they had a whole audience.

But as always, nobody wanted to help poor little Newt.

Teresa glances at the teacher before she continues talking. "What do you mean he protects you?" She asks, clearly jealous at the idea. Newt looks at her, their eyes lock together. He can see jealously written all over her face.

He almost laughs before replying, "you know what I mean. No alphas bother me now, except for him." He decides to ignore her ignorance. She shouldn't be jealous of Newt getting shoved into a locker. There is nothing to be jealous about.

Teresa is beautiful, there's no doubt about that. Definitely not Newt's type, but he can see past it and see her beauty. She's in the Maze Runner pack, she can freely speak to Thomas whenever she wants. If anything Newt should be jealous of her.

Newt is just a scrawny disobedient omega that everybody hates. He has no pack, he has nothing. It absolutely bamboozles him that Teresa would be jealous of Newt. It almost makes him happy. Happy at the fact he at least has an admirer... sort of.

She sits there quietly, deciding not to question things any further. They sit quietly for the rest of class, taking notes and raising their hands to answer questions.

Eventually class ends at the teacher dismisses them. Everybody gathers their things and head off to their second period class.

~•~

The bell for lunch rings and Newt couldn't be happier. He heads to his locker and dumps his stuff in it before going to the cafeteria to get shitty school food. He waits in line and looks over to Thomas' table, wondering what the alpha is up too. Some of his pack members are sat there, but Thomas himself isn't.

Newt tilts his head, Thomas must have practice today. Newt should want to stay away, but he can't help but become curious of where Thomas is. A strange feeling in his gut forms, it's almost as if he feels worried. He gets his food and carries the tray to the gym.

The omega stands outside the doors, seeing that all the kids in track are practicing. He spots brown hair and instantly recognizes it as Thomas'. He has his back turned to Newt and he seems to be talking to Minho. It's not long before Thomas is turning around and looking directly at Newt. He growls at the omega and bares his teeth threateningly. Startled, Newt's ears flatten and his tail instantly tucks between his legs. He looks down, noticing. Blush forms on his cheeks and he looks up at Thomas, who is now smiling at him. Thomas' tail wags behind him and he starts laughing, causing Minho to turn around and see Newt too.

Newt forcefully untucks his tail and leaves, not wanting to be embarrassed any further. He finds a quiet place in the library and starts eating his food in peace.

His tail has never automatically tucked like that. Yes, he's had instances with Thomas where his tail did hide between his legs, but not like this! All Thomas did was look at him and growl! This is really getting out of hand.

He shakes his head before continuing to eat his food. Thomas also had the nerve to smile at him after too! Did someone else see him tuck his tail too? Or was Thomas just so happy he frightened the lonely omega. Newt growls to himself and soon loses his appetite.

Last period is going to be hell.
