Newt // The Fall

"(Y/N) have you noticed Newt acting weird?" Alby asked as we stood at the doors waiting for them to open as well as Newt, Minho and Ben.

"You noticed too?" He had been acting strangely lately; he was being more distant to the gladers, wouldn't speak to me when we ran and he hadn't kissed me in a week. It seemed pointless and stupid but it was different.

"Please just keep an eye on him," he begged for me to protect his best friend.

"Of course," I sighed when the three approached, two with wide grins and the other with a frown.

"Ready to run?" I asked as Minho and Ben nodded and took stance at the doors with Alby.

Newt stood staring at the ground with a heartbreaking look. "Newt?" His eyes never moved as I took his hand which quickly retracted from me. "Baby what's wrong?"

"Nothing (Y/N). Just leave it alone," he growled as my chest became heavier.

"Newt please talk to me," I pleaded and reached for his chin but this time his entire body flung backwards.

"I said leave it alone! You never know when to listen you shuckface!" It felt as if someone ripped my heart out of my chest and stomped on it.

I scoffed and turned around. "Look (Y/N)-."

"Don't. Save your breath," I mumbled and turned to the two runners and our leader staring at us with worried eyes.

The floor shook and rumbled underneath my feet indicating our day was about to begin. Minho and Ben quickly ran into the maze looking both worried and suspicious before I waited for newt to walk to the doors.

"I didn't mean-," Newt started but the tears threatening to spill pushed me to anger.

"It doesn't matter. We have a job to do." I had never been so cold towards him but the way he spoke to me only made me want to hide away and cry. He didn't deserve to see me so defeated.

"I love you," he said as i kept my eyes on the doors. Alby had already been halfway to the homestead by now leaving Newt and I alone. "I love you too."

I started at a quick jog until I picked up my speed knowing Newt was right beside me. He suddenly ran even faster at a quicker pace than I could achieve.

"Newt slow down," I yelled but he continued his quick pace and made many different turns. He took a quick left when I lost him. I ran ahead and looked around for him.

"Newt? Where are you?" I yelled and pushed the hair out of my face.

"Go back to the glade," I heard his voice but I wasn't sure where.

"Baby come out. We have to keep running," I said with a shaking voice as the worry built in me like a bomb.

"I'm not going back but you are. I'm sorry baby girl," his voice said as I realized I heard it above me.

My eyes searched the vines until i saw him latched onto the vines about two stories off the ground. I could see the tears staining his cheeks as I ran to the far wall.

"Newt! Please don't do this!" I knew what he was doing. He was going to jump and end his life.

We had had conversations about suicide before and every time we each reminded each other that we were loved. I loved him more than anything and I thought he did too. 

"I'm sorry," he croaked when his hands left the wall.

"No!" A violent wail scratched my throat as I finally made it to the ground.
