Something about this Greenie is different.

He never pays this much attention to Greenies, nothing past the usual introduction and First Day jitters but something about this one is different.

Something about him calls to Newt, to a part of him that he hasn’t tapped into in years.

Sitting here with him laughing at Gally’s brew, watching the boys wrestle, bathing in the warm orange light of the fire, Newt feels something in his chest shift. Between two ribs and just under his heart, he feels the smallest thing plant itself in the space there.

A flower.

An affection.

A warmth that tickles down to his fingertips.

Sitting in the brightness of the night and the Greenie’s laugh, Newt knows that something’s starting to bloom.

Teen. Newt can’t help but look at Thomas. This is lovely.

This is a fun AU vid.

As this doesn’t include Death Cure, it’s positively upbeat.

This song is too perfect.

The sunlight hits him hard as he exits the Council Hall. One leg after another he moves himself closer to the Homestead across the Glade. He needs to be alone. He needs to calm down. He needs to stop thinking of the ghost of Newt’s fingers on his neck, on his back, his waist.

Thomas needs a lot of things.

Adult. Read Fingerprints by Tattered_Dreams first, then enjoy this delicious bit of mild D/s smut. There isn’t enough happy Glade fic for these two.

Thomas refuses to think about Newt at all, about the way his breathy groans had filled the room, about how messy his half bun came undone, about how eagerly his fingers had opened Gally’s belt. No, no, no. He really doesn’t want to think about his friend, Newt, having sex. With Gally of all people. No. He briefly wonders if hooking up with people you dislike is another one of Newt’s holy but proudly broken rules? Because obviously, Newt dislikes Gally? He must. Dislike him, right? Damn Newt and his damn rules. And now with not catching Newt in the Map Room, he can’t even tease him about breaking some rules himself. And Thomas would rather face a Griever than admit to Newt to what he had seen. Newt rubbing up against Gally, Newt getting hoisted on the table. No. He won’t think about it. He will play it cool. He will give Gally the cold shoulder, Newt probably too, for good measure. He will catch Newt in the map room a different day.

Mature. Thomas witnesses something surprising… and is incredibly clueless how he feels about it, and about Newt. Lovely fic, even if the epilogue is a bit weaker. I especially like the moments with the other boys in the Glade in the first chapter.

After Newt’s death, Thomas can’t settle at the Safe Haven. He goes out during a storm and is struck by lightning- only to find that he has been sent a year into the past, it’s his first day in the Glade, and he can remember EVERYTHING. And, because Thomas still had some of Newts blood on him somewhere, so can Newt. Cue the boys falling in love and trying to rewrite history.

An epic rewrite of canon, this has me on the edge of my seat every time I read it.

He hadn’t thought about sex since he arrived in the Glade – and weirdly, he knew that was unusual, because he knew what sex was, and that in some distant, ideal world he would like to be having it, even though he didn’t remember what it was like, or how often he used to indulge, or anything. He’d had a couple of incidental boners since he’d arrived in the Glade, but he’d been in a perpetual state of fear and desperation, and that didn’t sit well with horniness, not for Thomas.

But all of a sudden he couldn’t get the thought of Newt beating off out of his head, and he had to squirm a bit to reposition his dick, because fuck, this boner wasn’t incidental. It was very much related to Newt, and the mental image he’d put in Thomas’s head. Newt, hand down his pants, getting himself off.

Newt helps Thomas pass the time in the pit.
