Thank you for being patient with me and I loved this idea! Hope you all like it! *

(Y/N) woke up half an hour after she was supposed to, the darkness from the Glade and the warmth of her blanket allowing her to sleep longer than usual. She knew because of the system in the Glade, someone, if not everyone, knew she was not up yet and wondered who was the one to let her sleep?

She found her answer when she finished getting ready for the day and noticed a folded piece of paper right in front of the crack in her door. Smiling at the simultaneously expected and surprising note, she picked it up and unfolded it.

Good morning darling. I thought of you when I noticed the sunset last night. Sunsets are gorgeous, filled with an array of colors that all combine into a beautiful backdrop for the haunting Glade. But that's how you make me feel. I can forget the maze when I look into your eyes and I don't ever want to lose that view. I love you.
Love, anonymous

Those notes weren't unusual nor were they anything but sweet in the girls eyes. Most mornings and occasionally during bonfires and special occasions, these notes were left for her to find with the author always addressed himself as "anonymous".

They had been written for her for weeks but she still couldn't figure out who they were coming from. She had a hunch but she was too nervous to act on it in case she was wrong. For now she would accept the heart warming notes and await every morning for a new one.

Once she was finished getting ready, she slipped the note into her pocket and left for breakfast where she found all of her friends waiting patiently for her. She was too giddy about the note to see Minho nudge Newt in the stomach as he approached.

Newt was the one writing the notes and letters for the girl. He woke up every morning half an hour before the rest of the Gladers so he had more than enough time to construct a perfectly crafted note and leave it for the girl to find when she awoke.

Newt was helplessly in love with (Y/N), even finishing each letter with the phrase "I love you". However, even being the strong and brave Second-in-Command, he was beyond terrified to tell her how he felt. Instead he wrote out his feelings in letters and cowardly signed them with "anonymous".

The only person who knew about Newt writing the letters was Minho who had accidentally walked in on Newt stealing paper and pencils from the Map Room. He swore he wouldn't tell after pestering Newt into coming clean of his dirty deed. That shuckface.

That leads them to each morning where Newt blushes away and Minho pokes and annoys him when they see (Y/N) approaching. She is always too oblivious to catch on but the others all know of his feelings and agree that he should say something. He won't though, for fear of rejection.

"Morning love," Newt greeted her once she was in hearing range. The dazed smile on her face didn't shy away when she sat down beside Newt.

The others had knowing smiles when Thomas asked across the table, "you get another letter?"

The girl started giggling in her seat uncharacteristically from her usual self and pulled out the note for everyone to see. She chewed on her lip to try and stop smiling but it was no use for the bright smile fighting her cheeks.

Newt's heart swelled in his chest at the sight of (Y/N) so smitten over the note he wrote for her. Her reaction made all the teasing from Minho feel worth it, albeit this didn't mean he was going to confess anytime soon.

"What did it say?" Winston asked but like every day, the girl shook her head.

(Y/N) folded the paper and placed it against her chest. "I'm not letting anyone see it. It's for me and my secret admirer's eyes only so stop asking."
