Newt x Reader - The Greenie

4. Breakfast Was Eventful

I scramble out of bed and Teresa and I get ready together.
"Plaid, or plaid?" She asks holding up two of the same dresses.
We both laugh.
"Oh, I don't know. I think, plaid." I say, going along with the joke. I open my closet and pull out the dress. We either had to wear a dress or a skirt. So Teresa and I had decided to match.
"Okay, (Y/N), you're going to come back here after class two and put on your cozy outfit." She explains. "For gardening."
"Thanks." I smile at her.
"You're welcome." She says.
I put the dress and the jacket on. We had to go with dress code. No shoulders. And we had to wear tights.
"You look nice." I tell Teresa.
She already has her dress on and her shoes. She's toatally dressed.
"We're matching silly." She says.
"No, I mean, it looks nice on you." I tell her as I finish getting dressed.
"Aww, thank you so much." She says.
I smile.
I walk over to my vanity next to Teresa's and start to put on my makeup.
"Okay, so, this goes here right?" She asks holding up her eyeshadow and pointing to her eye.
"Yes." I tell her.
"Thanks." She says.
"Of course." I smile.
I work on my makeup. I decide to skip foundation and just do blush and eyes.
I would be working in the gardens and I would be sweating. And I would swear off my makeup.
It would be better if I didn't wear foundation.
"Aww, you look so cute." Teresa tells me.
"Thanks." I say.
I was mid putting on my mascara.
I had went for a super natural look today. I wanted to be as real as possible.

(^^the outfit)
I popped in some simple rose earrings and my rose necklace. I had gotten them a year ago with my mom. We had went to the mall together on Valentine's day and both got a set together.
"I love your jewelry." Teresa says.
"Thanks. My mom has a matching set." I tell her.
"That's so sweet." She says with a smile.
"All ready?" I ask.
"You know it!" She says.
We walk out and she leads me to breakfast. Everyone else is either on their way or already there.
"You're sitting next to Newt." She whispers in my ear.
"What! No." I say.
"Yes." She says and we walk in.
She waves at everyone and sits next to Thomas. On the other side of her she leaves room for me to sit in between her and Newt.
"Hey Newt." I say.
He smiles at me.
"Hey (Y/N)." He says.
"What's for breakfast?" I ask.
"French toast. They sit here and talk a bit, but if you're hungry I'm going up right now to get some." Newt says.
Now or never. I take my chance.
"I'll go with you." I say.
He smiles at me and grabs my hand.
The butterflies in my stomach multiply by the thousands.
"Oh sorry." He says.
He drops my hand and leaves us both blushing.
"Guess I didn't realize." He says. "There's a lot of people and I didnt want you to get lost." He says.
I take his hand again.
"I think that's very thoughtful." I say smiling.
He smiles back at me.
He takes me up to where the plates are and I let go to grab a plate. I hand him one too.
"Thanks." He says.
"No problem." I say.
"This way." He says.
I follow him to a small window where there was a kid serving the food.
"Hey Fry, what's up?" Newt asks him.
"Hey Newt! Just cooking. Then I get my last two classes off. The usual." He says.
"Ah. This is (Y/N). The new greenie." Newt says.
"Hey, I'm Fry." He says.
"Hey." I say smiling.
He puts food on Newt and I's plate and we head back to the table. newt checking behind him every few seconds to make sure I'm there.
"Look it's the cripple." I hear a girl say to her friends and they giggle.
They look at me and I shoot them a death glare.
I can tell that Newt's mood has changed.
When we sit down I turn to him.
"Hey, you okay?" I ask him.
"I'm fine." He says staring at his french toast. "I'm used to it."
"I'm sorry." I say.
"It's fine." He says.
"It's not." I say. "I'm going over there." I say.
Everyone at the table looks at me.
"No, you don't have to." Newt says.
I ignore him and sit with the girls.
"Hey, is this seat taken?" I ask.
"Nope." The girl says popping the p.
"I'm (Y/N). Nice to meet you." I say.
"I'm Alex. This is Nadia." Alex says.
"You're really pretty." Nadia says.
"She's right." Alex says.
"I came over here to talk to you guys." I say.
"About what?" Alex asks. She seems happy.
"Newt. Call him cripple again and punch the klunk out of you slintheads. Got it?" I ask.
They both look at each other.
"Sure." Nadia says.
"I'm not playing. And he'll tell me." I say. "I'm not scared of you two. You can act all mean, but I don't care. Don't call him a cripple again. Don't even look at him again!" I yell.
I was probably making a scene.
"Why? Do you like the little cripple. She has a crush on the cripple." Alex says.
In a flash I hop over the table and start throwing punches at her.
"Don't shucking call him that!" I yell.
At this point, we were fighting.
I was still winning, I had gotten at least three good punches in.
"Stop, what are you doing?" I hear Nadia yell.
"Hey!" I hear someone yell.
I feel arms wrap around me on the table and I'm not sure it is.
"(Y/N) what happened?"
It was Newt.
I spit at Alex from where I was standing.
"Don't even look at him again." I say.
Newt pulls me off of the table and takes me outside instead of back to the table.
I realize what I did and I break down in tears.
"Hey, what happened?" Newt asks, his voice quiet and gentle.
We're both on the grass outside.
"She called you a cripple again and I told her I'd beat the klunk out of her if she did anything to you again." I say.
He looks at me eyebrows raised.
"I don't know what happened. I'm not violent. But I knew that you weren't fine." I tell him.
"Thank you." He says.
"Anything for you Newt." I say.
"Clearly. You just broke a girl's nose." He says.
"What?" I ask. I start crying harder and he pulls me into a hug.
"I'm sorry. Probably shouldn't have brought that up." He says.
He rubs cricles on my back as we sit there and he lets me cry in his shoulder.
I pull away from the hug.
"You probably think I'm a mess." I say looking at him.
"I don't. I think you're brave. And a loyal friend." He tells me.
"Thank you Newt." I say.
"(Y/N), Newton, my office now." It's Janson.
"It's my fault." I say.
"Okay, both of you in my office." He says unamused.
We follow him to his office where I see Alex and Nadia.
Alex is holding tissues to her nose. They're all stained red.
Janson leads us in and shuts the door. Alex and Nadia outside.
"What happened? You've been here less than 24 hours (Y/N)?" Janson asks.
"They were harassing Newt. And I asked if he was okay and he clearly wasn't. They called him a cripple. And I went to tell them not to. Then they started calling him a cripple again and making fun of me." I explain.
"Newt, how long have they been doing this?" Janson asks.
"Since I fell." He admits.
I look at him again, tears threatening to fall from my eyes.
"I didn't tell anyone. I didn't want to seem weaker than I already was." He says. He's crying.
"Newt, you could've talked to me. You know they would be gone in a heartbeat." Janson says.
"Am I getting expelled?" I ask.
"No. You're not. They are. We beleive there's a difference between being a loyal friend and defending someone else's honor than trying to take it from them." Doctor Paige says walking into the office.
"I'm not saying you handled the situation correctly. But I can see you have the correct thought behind it. That's why you're staying." She says. She offers a smile.
"Now, we don't want to be late to our first class do we?" Doctor Paige smiles at me as Janson says this.
"We'll go." She says.
Newt and I get up and walk out. He hugs me tightly.
"Thank you." He whispers.
"Anything for you." I tell him. He realeases the hug and we go to the dining hall.
I meet up with Thomas and he tells me he can take me to the first class.
"It's just this way." Thomas says.
"Thanks." I say.
"You have a black eye." Thomas laughs.
"It's my makeup." I tell him. "It's not waterproof."
"No, it's purple, blue, and black." He tells me.
"Wait really?" I ask.
"Yeah. You look pretty cool. Makes you look tough." He says.
"Thanks Thomas." I say.
"Of course." He smiles.
We walk into the class and all eyes are on me.
"Yeah greenie." I hear a boy tell at me.
"That's Gally." Thomas says.
I look at the boy who said it. I remember Teresa had told me about him.
I smile.
