Authors note: This is an AU so not all details carry over also mostly in Newts perspective you will be told otherwise 

I groggily open my eyes, but what I see makes me feel as if I were still dreaming. Sitting there in the cold box, somehow sitting next to Tommy. Minho sitting in the other corner. "Whats bloody happening?" I ask, my voice hoarse. No one answers, all I get is a tired shrug from Minho.  Time passes and Tommy tries to start a conversation. "Isn't it weird we are all in The Box, or in The Box at all?" 

We keep with small talk until light fills the box, Tommy helps me out, I help Tommy and Minho out. Now back in the Glade, we look around, just as we left it. Barely anything stands, deep gashes in the ground caused by Greivor claws.  It feels wrong being back here, but something in me knows this is safer than the outside. 

Being back here forces me to remember those who we lost, I walk over to the wall of names. I respectfully etch the names out, I was coming to the last name I had to cross out Winston. Just before I do I hear Minho yelling out to me not to cross it, I guess he's holding on to the minuscule change he's alive. I don't get it though, we all heard the gunshot. I let him hold onto this hopeless hope until he comes to the conclusion on his own, that Winstons never coming back. Thinking of this causes tears to fill my eyes and fall down my face. 

Respecting Minho's decision I walk away without crossing his name. I walk to the central area and chat with the others about Glade stuff, like who's going out into The Maze. "We're all going to be runners, so no ones alone." Tommy puts out there "And Newt, if you need it I'll help you out in any way possible." 

I can feel my cheeks warm up when Tommy said that, but why do I bloody feel like this. Newt get ahold of yourself it was just out of friendship nothing more, even though I wish there was more. NEWT STOP THAT!

After regaining myself we head into The Maze, staying beside Tommy in case I need anything. 

A/N 

I can imagine Newt just mentally yelling at himself, Yes I ship Newtmas. Yes, there will be Newtmas and another ship if you caught my drift. Not Tominho or Minewt, comment your ideas and I will tell you if you are correct.
