Things beyond my skill level that I would like to make (x,x,x,x,x,x)

[thesaltyscorpio]

Hi! Could you write a newtmas fanfic for a song Sky full of stars by Coldplay? And if you could make it really fluffy that would be great :) Love you!

I AM SO INCREDIBLY SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG

I wanted it to be just perfect and unfortunately that means me sitting on it for a while to decide if I’m done messing with it.

So thank you for being so patient and I really hope you love it :)

*Send me your favorite ship songs and I’ll write a one-shot inspired by them!*

The lights flickered off one by one all around the marina, and everything started to get quiet. After a few moments of settling noises among the Gladers, all that could be heard was the sound of waves gently lapping against the sand, returning to sea over and over, and the crickets. Newt lay awake in his bed, staring up at the ceiling. His pointer finger tapped on his loosely folded hands impatiently.

            He turned onto his right side. He could only sort of see Thomas a few beds down, who was also awake and facing Newt’s direction. A smile quickly spread across Thomas’ face the instant Newt made eye contact with him, a doofy smile that made Thomas blush and hide his face into his blankets for a minute to gain his composure. Thomas looked back up, and now Newt was smiling,  flattered he caught Thomas staring.

Thomas, whose giddiness was now pushing his patience over the edge, slowly propped himself up on his elbow, raising his eyebrows at Newt.

Newt sat up a little too, No, he nodded, and held up a single finger, slowly laying back down.

Thomas laid back down, impatient as ever. He didn’t want to wait for Newt to tell him all was clear, he wanted to go now.

Quietly, but noticeable to the boys awake, Vince and Jorge entered the large room, went to their respective beds, and settled in. Thomas sighed, knowing that the real waiting game was now beginning.

What felt like an eternity later, Newt finally slowly sat up in bed and looked over at Thomas, who had caught the movement out of the corner of his eye and sat up quickly. Both boys quietly slipped out of bed, put on sweatshirts, and carried their shoes to the door, being careful not to wake anyone.

After they had made it out of the sleeping room and onto the dock, they put on their shoes and made their way down the ladder scaling the side of the ship and onto the docks. They gave each other a smile and a simultaneous sigh of relief escaped them both, resulting in a shared chuckle.

They started heading towards one of the small cliffs that hugged the side of marina and overlooked the small beach below, the moon their only light. For once they were able to take a leisurely walk while holding hands. Many times Thomas had day dreamed about taking the same walk in the late afternoon on a sunny day. The sun starting to get lower in the sky, the heat of the day not gone yet. The ache of a long day’s work settling into his muscles, and the stretching of his legs felt good. They would sit up on the cliff and face overlooking the marina as everyone started to enjoy their free time for the day. They would people watch, share their day, share laughs over dinner.

The arrival to the side of the cliff broke Thomas’s attention away from the reminiscence of his daydream. Maybe once we’re in Paradise, was the thought the reviere always ended with.

Thomas started climbing the rocky earth alongside Newt. Thomas reached the top first, offering Newt a hand up that he accepted without hesitation.

They settled down in a patch of grass several feet from the edge of the cliff. Newt lay with his right hand cradling his head as his left arm was up and away from his body, inviting Thomas to lay beside him.

Thomas snuggled into Newt’s side, laying his head on his chest. He nuzzled his face into Newt’s shirt and took in his scent. A sweet, cedar-like aroma filled Thomas’ nose and he tried for the thousandth time to engrave the essence into his memory.

He looked up at Newt, who was looking down at him with loving eyes, “Hello,” Newt said, his voice soft and warm.

Thomas grinned, “Hi,” gently placing his left arm across Newt’s middle, giving him a small squeeze.

Newt’s eyes explored Thomas face. He cherished these moments when he could be close enough to familiarize himself with the details of the boy he loved.  He blinked a few times, remembering they were trying to start a conversation. “So how was your day?”

Thomas gave a small shrug, “Fine I guess. I missed you. I’m glad we got to go out tonight, it’s been a few days.”

“Me too,” agreed Newt, “Crazy how we see each other every day yet it still feels like there’s so much to catch up on when it’s just us.”

“Yeah,” Thomas said. “So what’s up with you? I’ve seen you reading that book a lot. You were too engrossed in it to even tell me what it’s about.”

“Oh, yeah,” Newt looked upwards, remembering he said he’d fill Thomas in later. “It’s a book on the constellations and astrology.”

Thomas furrowed his brow in disbelief, “Where the hell you find something like that?” he laughed.

Newt grinned, “I dunno, I found it while poking around one day after we first got here. It’s so interesting. And it’s not that I didn’t want to tell you what it was about when you asked, it’s that I couldn’t say what I wanted to at the time so I figured I might as well just wait. Besides, it’ll make much more sense now.”

“Okay,” Thomas shifted, eager to hear what Newt had to say.

“Constellations,” Newt began, “star patterns in the sky, they have meaning. They make little pictures representing different mythological gods, shapes, animals, and they all have stories. Astrology is the study of how the different alignment of those figures in the sky on the day a person was born affect the personality.”

Thomas, leaned back to look up at the stars, “Wow, guess I never really thought about that. Kinda makes sense, though.”

“I was pretty skeptical at first,” Newt continued, “but as I kept reading it eventually didn’t seem like something one could argue.”

“Yeah? What convinced you?” Thomas asked, interested to know what amazing thing could have changed the mind of the person who always seemed so sure of himself.

“These zodiac signs, they just make sense” Newt said, “See, everyone belongs to one of the twelve and it’s all based on your birthday.”

Thomas was even more confused now. None of them could remembered when their birthdays were.

“Which, despite not knowing when that actually is, taking a look at people, I think you can guess pretty accurately,” Newt said, answering Thomas exact question.

“So you’re saying you think you know who might have been born when based on what they’re like?” Thomas asked.

“Yeah.”

Thomas just stared at the sky, still trying to fully make sense of what Newt was saying and trying to believe it too.

“Like for example, Minho.” The vibe between them was immediately dampened at the mention of their lost friend, but Newt continued, “I think he’s a Libra.” Newt pointed, searching for the group of stars.

“There,” he showed Thomas, “see the triangle? And the two legs? Those are the Scales of Justice. People born under Libra like to keep the peace. They like things fair and just. They’re very social, they like to share, they’re committed friends.”

“Sounds like Minho.” Thomas agreed, swallowing the small lump that was trying to form in his throat.

“Yeah. And if I’m right, he’d be born in mid autumn.” Newt’s voice trailing off a little.

“And you,” Newt said, lifting the mood. “I think you’re a Virgo.” He looked down at Thomas, smiling. The moonlight sparkled in Thomas’ eyes was mesmerizing.

Newt pointed the constellation out to Thomas, “Virgos are born in early autumn, and are all about the people they love. They love to help, to serve, they’re very modest. For the most part their judgement is quite good, but their love for detail and perfectionism can cause them to overwhelm themselves.” Newt laughed, “They can’t sit still either. Mercury, the god over Virgo, was ‘swift footed’ and ‘a bundle of energy’ according to Roman mythology. Guess maybe that’s why you’re such a good runner.”

Thomas chuckled, “Yeah I guess so,” he said, not able to disagree, “That’s so cool. That the stars can tell you all that.”

Newt nodded, “There are other constellations not apart of the zodiac too.” He went on to point out some of the easiest ones to spot, like the two dippers and Orion.

“What about you?” Thomas asked after a minute of silence, using his thumb to rub Newt’s side, “which one do you think you are?”

Newt sighed. “I guess Taurus.” He pointed, “Every year on the spring equinox the sun rises through that constellation.”

Thomas instantly thought of how much Newt loved working in the gardens in the Glade, and how he often was the first one awake, watching the sunrise.

“Taurus is reliable, patient, responsible, practical, and devoted, and stable…..the glue,” Newt’s voice almost cracked and he swallowed hard. He had been trying so desperately lately to refill the empty shell of a person WICKED had left him as. Yet the harder he tried, the more it hurt. It only drove home the idea that they were WICKED’s property.

He inhaled, continuing, “Tauruses don’t like change or instability, they can be quite stubborn.”

Thomas cut him off, “You’re finally admitting it? Oh my god.” Thomas grinned, feeling like he won the long standing argument.

“Not…necessarily,” Newt tried to defend himself,  although he was laughing with Thomas now, “You’re the one who is either hyper or is fixating. At least I’m sensible,” he teased.

He placed a kiss on Thomas’ forehead, “Anyways,” he went on, “they often make friendships for life, but need to be in safe environments to really open up to the people they love.”

Their nights out together were special to Thomas, but he understood now why they were especially important to Newt.

“At first I really didn’t know why I liked it so much, especially when I didn’t know what to think of it. But it’s all very definitive, you know? The stars. They’ve always been there. They were there before us, before the Sun Flares, before WICKED, before the Maze. It’s like the only thing that hasn’t changed after all this time and if I can understand them, it’s like knowing what the world used to be like before I couldn’t remember anymore. My old self. Who we all used to be. Who we still are now. Bridging that gap.

The sky…you’re staring into forever. We can’t actually see it but somewhere in that direction,” he half heartedly pointed, “time stops existing. Maybe that’s where Alby and the others are now.”

Thomas was deep in thought, trying to follow what Newt was saying. He hadn’t thought much about any of this but he loved that he was learning it all from Newt. As if the way he carried himself wasn’t admirable enough, the casual way he spouted off knowledge was captivating to Thomas, wanting to soak up every bit of it, especially Newt’s own thoughts on it all.

Newt had gone silent for a moment and Thomas could see tears starting to well in Newts eyes.

“Thank you for showing me this,” he said, trying to gently pull Newt’s attention back to the present. “I get why you couldn’t say anything before. I’m glad you decided to wait.”

“I think they look down on us too,” Thomas decided out loud. “I bet you they’re doing everything they can to help us get Minho back.” He held his breath for a second, “You know, there were times in the Scorch I really didn’t think we were going to make it. Afterwards I couldn’t make sense of how any of us were still alive. Like, how did Minho not die from that lightning strike? How did we just so happen to find Jorge and Brenda’s hideout and not someone else’s? And how on Earth did you guys ever find Brenda and I at that party? As I was starting to pass out from those drugs I really thought… this is it. I’ll never see them again. I’ll never see him again. But when I woke up, we were all right there together, like it was just a bad dream.” Thomas shuddered, trying to push out the memory he had to Newt as a Crank.

Luckily, Newt mistaken this for a shiver and held Thomas a little closer, “Exactly, Tommy.” Newt said, resting his head against Thomas’.

Thomas’ found Newt’s hand and their fingers interlaced, “We are so close to getting out of here, Newt. I can feel it. I just can’t stop thinking about it.”

“I’m tired of living this way too,” Newt said, “I can’t wait until we can lay down to sleep and not have to worry what might happen before we even wake up to another day filled with things that’ll just keep us up at night anyways.”

“But if we made it this far, I know we can make it the rest of the way. We have to,” Thomas insisted.

Newt gazed deeply into Thomas’ eyes, “You know, as hopeful as we tried to be in the Glade, which I’m convinced is the most hopeless place on the entire planet, I never believed we were going to be okay until you came along and said it.”

Thomas smiled as his heart warmed, “I try not to let on that I’m scared, but I know you see it. I don’t want to know where I, or any of us, would be had you not been there since the first day I came up in the box.”

Newt rested his forehead on Thomas’, “And how incredibly lucky that we, a pair of soulmates, were still able to find each other in this particular life, one that’s filled with such misfortune and heartbreak?”

Thomas closed the gap between them, gently pressing his lips against Newt’s. He couldn’t think of anything to say in response. Newt was simply right, they were lucky despite the horrible hand they, and everyone they knew, had been dealt.

There was something strangely magical about the mix of emotions between them as they laid underneath the stars. They both relished the feeling of truly being apart of the universe and its grand scheme.

MUN QUESTIONS.

Q1 :   if  you  could  write  your  character  your  way  in  their  own  movie ,   what  would  it  be  called ,  what  style  would  it  be  filmed  in ,  and  what  would  it  be  about ?           A1 :   While I’m quite sure Lance would love to have his own James Bond-esque thriller where he gets the girl, I’d rather have him in a coming of age story where he learns to grow into himself and his insecurities. As well as maybe, instead of getting the girl, he gets the guy. Wink wink.  Q2 :   what  would  their  soundtrack / score  sound  like ?           A2 :   Some soothing instrumental with cool drum solos Q3 :   why  did  you  start  writing  this  character ?           A3 :   I’m used to writing ‘mom’ characters (see: Starfire (DC), Mitsuru (Persona4), a handful of others) but wanted to try something else out when I saw Morgan and Grey’s characterization. I wanted to introduce my own portrayal of Lance since I loved him so much. Although Keith used to be my favorite character, Lance has quickly wormed his way to first place. Lance is also the most relateable character for me. Q4 :   what  first  attracted  you  to  this  character ?           A4 :   His puns and overall dorkiness, as well as fandom represented adoration for a certain mullet. Q5 :   describe  the  biggest  thing  you  dislike  about  your  muse.           A5 :   the thought of disliking anything about Lance is horrifying. though in canon, the way they treat him like he’s stupid when he’s SO smart and deserves so much more Q6 :   what  do  you  have  in  common  with  your  muse ?           A6 :   We can both be self-sacrificing, dorks, and if there is ever a chance to use a bad joke or pun I am on it. Q7 :   how  does  your  muse  feel  about  you ?           A7 :  "Why are you like this” @ me  Q8 :   what  characters  does  your  muse  have  interesting  interactions  with ?         A8 :    Everyone. Seriously, each thread has been great. @hologramandahardplace hmu sometime though Q9 :   what  gives  you  inspiration  to  write  your  muse ?         A9 :   Talking about AUs or headcanons, primarily. Or looking at gorgeous fanart. That helps too. Q10 :   how  long  did  this  take  you  to  complete ?           A10 :    TOO LONG. 4 hours?? Give or take?
