"You know," Thomas starts, putting the flowers down on the sand as he rolls his sleeves up. "How you yelled at me, back in the Glade, because I wasn't helping out?"
A breeze ruffles his hair, longer than it was a year ago, and the tang of salt doesn't register anymore. "I know, I know. You technically didn't yell. To be fair, I was new, and it's not like I had someone showing me the ropes."
He kneels on the ground, in front of where the tombstone stood. This wasn't the boulder that Vince had set up in the beginning of Safe Haven's existence--this was smaller, flatter, bordering on where the sand meets the dirt. "Now, I feel like all I'm doing with these kids is showing the ropes."
Busying himself with rearranging the flowers, he rubs his thumb on a golden petal idly. "They're doing fine. Between me and the others, things are getting done. Maybe not as efficiently if you were here, but we're trying." He pauses. "I'm trying."
Thomas' voice doesn't shake, not anymore. How can it? It's just him and Newt. His voice never shakes with Newt.
Waves crash somewhere behind him. A bird chirps, its tune lively and bright. The world continues to spin, and it's a long moment before he speaks again.
"I'm throwing myself into work, Newt." His gaze tilts skywards. "I'm working, aren't I? I build homes, I teach, I train the others. There's food, so much of it, enough for years and for anyone who wants to start a family. Last night, I woke up because people were laughing so loud near my bed--laughing. I couldn't even get mad."
Careful not to mess up the floral arrangement, Thomas leans forward slowly until his forehead is pressed right up against the slab, stone cool to the touch. "How busy?" he wonders. "How busy do I need to be until this gets better? How much more do I need to do before it starts to get better? How much more do I need to give?"
When he doesn't get an answer, Thomas lets his eyes slip close. "I'm busy, Newt. I'm busy, and I'm trying, and I'm so fucking sad."
Eventually, Thomas raises his head. He presses his lips to the top of the tombstone, smiling wryly to himself. "At least I can actually reach the top of your head like this, right?"
He gets on his feet, brushing the sand off of his pants, feeling the sun beat relentlessly down on his skin. "Tomorrow, then. Maybe it'll get better tomorrow."

The DON’T LIE TO ME scene has so much potential. I understand Newt was under the influence of the flare. But what if the flare just makes him lose control and brings out the sealed feelings in his subconscious, feelings that would otherwise be hidden forever? Oh, that brief moment of jealousy and vulnerability…
What if later on the balcony, Thomas picks up the implication? Then tells him that the person he loves also loves him; that he is truly important for everyone. (It’s really sad that Newt thinks so little of himself, and is so ready to sacrifice himself) Things could be so different in the end

Nah, cause I physically have to remind myself that Thomas and Newt are FICTIONAL. FICTIONAL. Because I keep getting Hella depressed everytime I see the longing in Newt's (great job by Thomas Brodie gangster btw) eyes. Like omdays that boy LOVED Thomas. And omdays Thomas loved Newt, BUT BY DASHNER. Newt DIES??? AND I AM SO SO SAD THAT THESE TWO PEOPLE SO DESPERATELY IN LOVE DIDN'T HAVE TIME. AND TIKTOK EDITS ARE NOT HELPING. FOR the sake of my own mental health. I have to remember that they aren't actual people just to stop from hurting so much. It just makes me so sad.
