"Wanna go for a walk?" I asked Newt after dinner. Surprised he looked at me, but eventually agreed. We started walking over the beach. I watched the waves of the sea hit some rocks, making noises. It was peaceful.

"Are you okay?" Newt carefully asked.

"Right now I am," I replied with a smile. "Are you?" I twirled my hand into Newt's.

"I am." Newt squeezed my hand and kept walking. "Did you react so excited like Liana when I asked you to be my girlfriend?"

"You asked that yesterday already." I chuckled. "But yes, I was quite excited but I didn't have anyone to talk to. Not another girl, at least. So I didn't really show my excitement." I explained. Newt slowly nodded. "Why are you asking?"

"Just wondering." He shrugged. I looked at the sea again.

"Newt? Did you ever swim in the sea here?" I wondered.

"No."

I raised my eyebrows. "Can we?"

"If you want to." Newt chuckled.

"Okay. But if there's a shark you need to save me." I ordered. "Or a fish."

Newt and I didn't care if other people would see us, so we put out our clothes, except for underwear, and ran into the sea. It wasn't very warm but relaxing.

But when I dove underwater, I let out a scream. The pain in my wrist was almost unbearable. With a few cries, I put pressure on it.

"What's wrong?" Newt swam over to me, his hair already wet.

"It hurts." I bit my lip.

"It's the salt." Newt realized. "If you have a cut and go into the sea, the salt will clean it, but it hurts." He explained. "Do you want to get out?"

"No, I'll do it," I replied. Newt smiled at my confidence. I managed to swim in the sea, trying not to put my wrist underwater.

"Aah, Newt!" I screamed when something touched my foot. Newt caught me from jumping and held me in bridal style.

"It's just seaweed, Nora." Newt laughed out loud and put me down again.

"It's disgusting and scary!" I defended. The green, slimy plants were all over the sand. "And there's a fish!"

Newt laughed at my reactions. I watched a big fish swim past us, but when it started moving toward us, I didn't hesitate to run through the water. As if my life depended on it, I got as far away from the fish as I could. When I turned around again, Newt was gone.

"Newt?" I asked, already afraid of what could've happened. Maybe the fish ate him. "Newt, where are you?" I yelled.

No response. Out of a sudden, I felt something grab my legs and pull me underwater. I started screaming and kicking. What if a shark got me and would kill me?

Once I got lifted onto someone's shoulder, I recognized the blonde hair.

"That was not funny, Newt! I was worried about you! And you scared the shit out of me!" I yelled, trying to escape from his strong grip. Newt chuckled and put me down.
"This is scary, can we get out?" I asked in a hurry.

The next morning Newt and I got ready. I tried to make a braid in my hair but didn't succeed on my own.

"Want some help?" Newt asked, stepping closer to me.

"Can you braid?"

"I can try." Newt chuckled. He grabbed my hair and I felt him braiding it gently. To be honest, it felt very nice. "Done," Newt said.

I moved my hand on the braid and looking the mirror. To my surprise, Newt had done a really great job. Maybe even better than I did myself. "Thank you." I blushed. Newt smiled and cupped my face, kissing me.

"We gotta get breakfast," Newt announced once we let go again. I agreed and we got ourselves some food before joining, just like every morning, the others.

"Morning." Thomas greeted. "What's up?"

"Nothing much." I shrugged. Then I noticed Liana wearing a sleeveless top. The scars on her wrist were clearly visible. I smiled and gave her a nod.

A/N:

Okay, I don't really have more ideas for things to add to this story so I will write about three more chapters, except if you give me ideas but you don't have to! Since the Redamancy series are so long I think there should come an end sometime!

There will be multiple epilogues. Those are about kids. Yup, you heard it. Some people asked if I could add this and I personally think it would be kind of cute so let me know what you think of it. It might be a bit cringey, though, but who cares? xx
