request for @DorkyCookies. I wasn't sure so I just went and assumed some things like you and Newt being a couple. I hope you don't mind ^_____^

"Newt?" I call out, waving my hands in front of the blonde boy's eyes to get his attention. "Newt" I repeat in a sing-song voice when I notice he's drowning himself in his thoughts.  

'That's okay...I didn't even feel like talking' sighing, I decide to leave Newt on his own for a while. If he's chosen to ignore the world, which am I to stop him?

~*~*~

"that's strange. Isnt Newt always with Livia?" A glader whose name I've forgotten whispers to another. 

"Yeah, they always eat together. Did they break up?" 

My grip on the fork suddenly tightens, "when will they mind their own business" I sigh, shaking my head. 

"Livia" someone calls my name, I look up to see Newt standing just a few meters away from the table. I put down my fork and push away my leftovers before standing up and getting ready to leave.

"Livia, wait!" The blonde boy calls out, jogging towards me with his hand in the air. 

I stop to wait for him.

"You disappeared earlier. I thought we were going to lunch together" he rubs the back of his neck sheepishly. 

"I didn't disappear Newt. I left" I say, my words coming our harsher than l intended. "You were spacing out so much, i- I felt like I was invisible or something" I shrug, chuckling but judging by Newt's expression I realize I'm only trying to convince myself. 

Newt lets out a soft sigh, "I'm sorry, Livia. I didn't realize-"

"it's okay Newt. But...is there anything you'd like to tell me?" I question him. 

Newt just shakes his head so I grab his wrist and lead him towards the woods where there are no other gladers around.

"Livia what-"

"Newt. These past few weeks, all you do is mope around, you dont finish meals, you dont get enough sleep, the other boys look up to you! Watching you, I've never felt so angry before. It's like you've lost your will and i can't let this carry on. So, I'm going to ask you again, is there something you'd like to share with me, Newt?" My eyes never leave Newt's, hopefully holding his gaze will prove to him how serious and concerned I am for him.

"What's the point of continuing if there's nothing at the end?" Newt says, his voice laced with sorrow. His eyes leave mine and he looks to the ground like there's something down there to comfort him.

"What are you-" 

"We're never getting out of here" it was Newt's turn to interrupt now. "No one has found a way out yet, Livia! We won't make it out, so there's no point in any of this!" Newt finally raises his voice, his arms wide as he circles in his spot, motioning to rest of the glade, the homestead, to everything and everyone.

Tears spill from his sad eyes, "face it, we're never seeing the real world again".

"You're wrong" I say, frustrated at how little faith Newt seems to have in the other gladers, the runners risking their lives everyday for us.

"Livia don't-" 

"We'll prove to you, Newt. We'll prove to you that when we stick together, work together we'll overcome anything." I claim his hands in mine, entwining our fingers. I give his hands a soft squeeze.

"You just have to wait a little longer. We'll show you" I say, a smile begins to form on my lips.

"Any objections?" I say, trying to lighten the mode a little.

Newt let's out a short chuckle, even if he can't help but think the way he does, at least he's trying. 

Newt shakes his head.
