The Maze Runner Imagines: Newt (Thomas Brodie Sangster) Book 2

A Float P2

When I woke up I could hear the bustle of town starting up, the sunlight coming in through the cracks in our walls and the gaps in the boards on the windows. The sounds of the seagulls squawking in the sunlight, I yawn bed sitting up and having a stretch my back and shoulders clicking and cracking my spine felt like it was popping in and out of place as I moved I got up getting my clothes on and going out seeing the triplets in their chairs and Y/n making tea

"Morning" she smiled as she spotted me over her shoulder

"Morning Y/n" I smiled rubbing my eye going and giving each of the triplets a kiss on their little heads

"Ohh Be careful Newt, Erwin has a little bit of a fever," she says bring me a cup of tea in the half-broken mug it was so weak you could barely taste the tea but it was warm at least

"Let me look" I smiled going to pick him up but she stopped me

"No, I can handle a baby with a Fever, We can't afford for you to be sick Mr" she warns taking Erwin and giving him a cuddle and of course he nuzzled into her happily almost going to sleep on her,

"Alright, I'll see you all later" I smiled grabbing my jacket

"Don't be late" she warns

"I won't Y/n" I laughed "Have a good day at work" I smiled going out the door

"You too Newt, And ask about your Wages!"

"I will" I laughed shutting the door behind me heading out to the orange glow of the early morning.

My day began as it normally did, helping load boxes onto one of the boats heading off to god only knows where. Helping them load up boxes and barrels onto the ship until about eleven when the ship would leave, as soon as everyone began gathering their things I went to our Boss

"Go on Newt Get back to the little ones," He says walking off towards the boat

"Uhh, sir if I could just-"

"what is it Newt I'm very busy," he says

"Please, sir!" I yelled stopping him before he walked on board

"Well, what the devil is it boy?" He said in shock rather annoyed at me

"Please sir, I haven't seen a penny in weeks..." I began

"Well such is the way of money at the moment dear boy" he laughed turning away

"No please!" I yelled "Our rent is coming due, I haven't eaten in weeks neither have the children... and We think Erwin Might be getting sick sir"

He sighed turning back to me

"I pity you, dear boy, I do," He said "But... Your Mistakes are your own son and you must reap what you sow" He said "Can't afford your home, can't afford your children, Perhaps you should have thought about that before knocking up that pretty little whore of yours"

I snapped pushing him to the hard wooden floor of the boat "Y/n isn't a whore!" I screamed he got up with help from a few other men working on the boat

"don't you dare touch me boy" He warned "Here as your so desperate" He said taking money from his pocket "Three weeks, is what you're owed, and take it as your final payment," He says counting out the money, I knew it was losing my job but hell he had enough in his hand to last me and Y/n a month he offered it to me I went to take it but he snatched it away "Go swim for it scramp" He yelled throwing the money into the water and before I could react he pushed me off the plank and into the water bellow I quickly surfaced grabbing onto the boat's rope to keep myself up as I gasped for air they all laughed and bored.
