I loved Newt.

I finally realised what all these odd butterflies were, I realised why I felt warm and nervous around him, and I realised why he was so attractive..

He probably doesn't even like me back, I mean, look at me. I wouldn't either. I snapped out of my thoughts to Newt, offering me a hand to help me up, I took it, and he lifted me so easily. I was having a panic inside when he smiled at me. He's so perfect..

We continued walking and got to our little seating area, we sat down, but one seat was missing, meaning one of us had to sit on the floor. I sat on the floor, and Newt stood up, "Take the seat, a pretty boy like you shouldn't be on the floor." I blushed, I blushed so bad. I felt fire inside my stomach, I just shook my head, I was at a loss for words. "Or you can sit on my lap?" He added, lifting an eyebrow. God, he's going to kill me. "You wish." I said bluntly. He grinned and sat down. He pat his lap, "cmere, I don't bite." I rolled my eyes, laughing. I noticed Teresa and Minho talking to each other. I heard a flirt out of Teresa. I was astonished. Did she like Minho? What a shocker. "Can you guys stop eye fucking and talk with us?" I said, they both looked at me. "Says you? Newts always eye fucking you, maybe even fucking yo-" I cut her off "ENOUGH, talk with us before he starts offering his lap to me again." I was about to start something "you didn't take the offer?!" Teresa blabbered, "WHAT?! NO?" I laughed it off, Newts laugh caught me out of my thoughts. It wasn't his goofy laugh it was a sincere laugh. He sounded perfect. His British accent mixed with his deep voice and low tone. God, I was in love with him.

The bell rung, I got a heart attack. Newt asked if I was alright because I jumped a bit, "I'm fine, don't worry," he just looked concerned, "I'll see you in geography." Newt said he was frowning and started walking away to his maths class. Me and the rest went to ours, and the teacher wasn't there, so a sub came in, but I got to sit next to Teresa and Minho, so it wasn't bad. We talked for a while, Minho went to the bathroom, and it was silent until Teresa asked a specific question, "Tom," I hummed in response, "Do you like Newt?" It caught me off guard, "n-no?" I fumbled my words, she raised her eyebrow, "I've known you 12 years, come on." She said. I was done for, "Is it THAT obvious..?" I whispered. She shook her head, "I just know you too well," she smiled, I just buried my head into my hands, and Minho came back from the bathroom, "What's up with him?" He said, probably addressing to me. "Nothing, but -" She continued talking to him, I just got lost in my own thoughts, I wonder if Newt would ever catch an eye for me. Probably not, it's probably just going to be one of them shitty love experiences, that's why love is stupid. You know what, I don't like him. It's just a little crush. It'll pass.

IN THE CANTEEN

"Tommy?"

My attention was caught instantly, "Yeah..?" I muttered. He just looked a little worried. "You alright? You're oddly quiet." I nodded, smiling. He smiled back, but he still seemed a bit suspicious. I brushed it off and joined the conversation Minho was having with Aris.

"NOT MY BLOODY SISTER." Newt was losing it to Aris. They were dating, but for some reason, Newt was against it. "Newt, cmon! We're already dating. I just want your blessing. You're my big brother." Lizzie was giving puppy eyes, Newt sighed, he nodded. "Fine." Lizzies eyes seemed to light up instantly, and she started chanting, 'Thank you!, thank you! Thank you! Thank you!' Newt responded with an eye roll. He walked up to Aris and grabbed his shirt by the rim, tugging on it. "If she comes back to me someday, sad or heartbroken, you're dead. You hear me?" Of course, Newt was being overprotective. Aris rolled his eyes and nodded. "Good!" Newt smiled genuinely. He's actually so hot.
