Present...


Newt and Thomas were staring at the night sky. Neither of them couldn't sleep and just stared at the sky.

"Tommy," Newt called out to him.

"Yeah?" Thomas said.

"Can you tell me about (Y/N)?"

"Why?" Thomas asked.

"It's just that I can't stop thinking about her," he finally admitted. "She seems so special and it bloody sucks that I don't remember one shuck thing."

"Well," Thomas started. "I remember some things. It was when you got stuck under her desk for two hours," he chuckled. "I remember her telling me the story.



Flashback...



Two hours have past and Newt's back has hurt a lot.

(Y/N) was being lectured by her mom for two hours and but her attention wasn't all on her. It was on the boy under her desk.

When her mom has finally left, she let Newt out of her desk.

"My back," Newt groaned.

"I know. I know. I'm sorry." (Y/N) smiled nervously. Then she began to blush because she remembered what happened just two hours ago.

"Newt, I think you should go." She didn't want him to get caught and he needs to go back to his room now. "Sonya might be waiting," she told him.

"No (Y/N). I just want to tell you that nothing is going on between Sonya and I. Do you believe me?" He wanted her to believe him badly.

"Yeah," she nodded. "I believe you. Now go. Please. If you get caught here, my mother will have a fit."

"Wait," Newt stopped before he reached the door. "We're still friends right?" He asked.

"Of course," she smiled at him. "We're still friends but Newt," (Y/N) pursed her lips, "why did you kiss me?"

The both of them blushed and Newt was going to say what he's wanted to tell her.

"It's because I like you (Y/N)," Newt confessed to her.

(Y/N) gasped with the confession Newt told her. "I like you too Newt," she admitted, "very much." Newt smiled but his smiled turned into a frown when (Y/N) said what she knew is the right thing. "But we can't be together," she said sadly.

"Look I know that this isn't the right place or time," he said. "But I don't care about it (Y/N)."

"Oh yeah? You're going to the Maze in a few months. You're going to forget about me. Remember, you're not immune."

"They'll find a Cure," he said with high hopes. "You'll find one."

"I'm not sure about that Newt," she sighed. "I don't want to get my hopes up only for it to crumble down and leave me heartbroken."

"You want the both of us to just stay friends?" Newt asked with hurt laced in his voice, no matter how hard he tried to hide it. He'd rather have her in his life just as friends rather than the both of them not being in each other's lives.

"Yeah," she said softly. She wanted them to be more but she knows that it'll save the both of them a lot of heartbreak if they don't.

"Alright," Newt sadly agreed.

(Y/N) sent him a sad smile and nodded. The both of them hugged each other but it was really tight and it felt really meaningful to the both of them.

"This is us as friends right?" She asked.

"Yeah," Newt said, "Just as friends."

"Ok, but I don't want to let go just yet."

"I wasn't going to."



Present...



"Then what happened?" Newt asked like a child.

"Shuck, I don't remember," Thomas furrowed his eyebrows. "I think I might remember in the morning when I wake up."

"But Ratman said that (Y/N) and I were boyfriend and girlfriend. Was he lying?"

"Newt," Thomas propped himself up using his elbows. "Ratman could've been lying about a lot of things. But one thing I know for sure is that you and (Y/N) had this love that no one could ever compete with. Now go to sleep."

Newt sighed and as he closed his eyes, his last thought was of her.

-

Meanwhile in the Experimentation Room, (Y/N) opened her eyes as soon as Newt went to sleep. She saw that the bag one filled with Crank's blood, was now empty. A small smile was formed on her face when she realized that she won't feel anymore of that burning sensation in her body.

(Y/N) tried to raise her arms and legs but she saw that they were tied up. Even if she knew that she didn't have the strength, she struggled to get out of the ties that were holding her.

The door opened and she saw Dr. Janson walk inside the room.

"Ah. I see you're awake," he said. "Good."

"What did you do to me?"

"Well I'm sorry my dear but all the blood we took from you got stolen, so we had to put the Crank's blood inside of you and you will now have the Cure. Your blood will Cure everyone has been waiting for."

Dr. Janson looked at (Y/N) expecting for her to give him a glare filled with hatred but instead she laughed. She laughed like a maniac, scaring Dr. Janson a little.

"You got robbed?" She laughed. "WICKED got robbed! This is the craziest thing I've ever heard!"

Quite annoyed by her sudden change of personality, he slapped her.

(Y/N) gasped, but then she laughed again.

Quite frightened, he went to Dr. Paige who was watching the entire scene in her office.

Dr. Paige watched her daughter carefully, wondering if the cause of this behavior was because of the blood of the Crank that was injected inside of her. A knock on her door was heard and Dr. Janson came in a little disheveled.

"I see you've seen how Subject X is."

"Yes I have," he said.

"Her behavior is caused with the blood of the Crank that we put inside of her. Is the blood that we used is one from a Crank who's already past the Gone?"

"Yes," he nodded.

"Good. This behavior is just temporary. When morning comes, we already have the Cure."
