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

Rocket Science AU

I sat on the grass under the tree on the campus green, the little pathway littered with people, Every so often that really annoying business major rides around on his mountain bike with his skin-tight cycling gear. The campus bins overflowing with Doritos packets, cigarettes ends and monster cans, the green had others, a group of people in a circle who all smelt of weed, a couple heavily making out on the little bench looking as if they were about to have sex. There where more but I didn't pay much attention to them as I sat under the one little tree leaning on my bag as I watched the clouds

"You should be studying" a voice told me I looked over to the source of the noise and it was 'Newt' his real name unknown to me it's just what I had always kinda known him as he stood over me leaning on the tree. his skinny black jeans tight to his slender body, his belt on as tight as it could go, his grey long sleeve shirt rolled to his elbows, his blue t-shirt over it with some stupid science pun on I never got it even if he's explained it to me a million times his bag draped over his shoulder covered In a million pop culture badges, a couple text books and a grey folder in his hand resting a little on his hip. His smug face smiled at me his brown eyes looking at me sweetly from under the mess of his mop of blonde and brown hair as well as the thick frames of his black glasses

"Why?" I asked as he put his bag down and sat beside me with his books

"You 'ave a test on Monday little lady" he reminds

"I know... You've been reminding me every fucking day since it went on the board" I complained getting my resuable cup from my bag sipping the ice juice I got from the campus coffee shop having a sip

"I'm just trying to 'elp Y/n" he sighed reading his text book

"I know you are Newt" I smiled to him, and I noticed a dusting of pink blush under his glasses as I did he coughed and returned his focus to his books

"What are you reading?" I laughed

"Gravitational feild densities and it's affecting of solid and semi solid Matter" he answered

"Hu?" I asked

"Come on Y/n it's not rocket science" he joked

"Yes it is" I argue

"No it isn't" he laughs

"Your textbook literally says rocket science" I complained

"No it doesn't, it's applied science and mathmatics for theoretical and practice space exploration" he explained

"Rocket science" I correct

"I'll let you call it rocket science if you actually study" he says so I sighed getting my book and reading a little "good, you don't want to fail Y/n"

"I'm not going to fail Newt, exams only five percent of the course the rest is work" I explain

"Five percent is five percent" he says "get an A it's one thing less to worry about" he says

"You going to be studying all night?" I asked

"Course I am, I 'ave a practical unit to build by next month" he says

"Ooohh can I put glitter stickers on your rocket ship?" I asked and he glared at me "what?"

"It's not a rocket ship!' he whines "it's a prototype, miniature radio controlled probe unit" he explained

"Can I put stickers on it?' I asked

"Maybe" he sighed "...if you 'ave those cool 3d dinosaurs" he muttered "but I don't need to even think about design now, I'm still writing out the programs and the equations," he explained "are you going to be studying tonight?"
