Masterlist

Summary:you and Newt are getting ready for an elegant dinner when he ends up playing with your makeup.

<<Where’s my tie?>> Newt asked cluttering the drawers <<I don’t know,sweetheart. Yesterday you told me you were going to move it but you didn’t tell me where>> a little laugh escaped your mouth while you were choosing the earrings to wear <<I’m so dumb>> he mumbled looking in the wardrobe <<Choose another tie,you’ve got hundreds of them>> you said <<No,it was my favorite and also...it matches your dress!>> the boy exclaimed,resting his chin on your shoulder and leaving a kiss on your cheek <<Then go and find it-you looked at the clock-you have about 35 minutes>>;Newt rolled his eyes and walked in another room.

You and Newt have been dating for two years now:you met him in New York,during one of his adventures to find his fantastic beats. At the beginning you didn’t like the idea of dating someone who always goes around with a suitcase full of strange creatures but once you hand know him and those animals you had completely fallen in love.

<<Found it!>> a yell of happiness came from the living room,you furrowed your eyebrows and walked out from your bedroom <<Newt how the hell your tie ended up in our living room?>> you asked in confusion <<I don’t remember but I’ve found it so there’s no problem,right?>> he smiled,walking towards you to leave a kiss on your cheek and then adjust the tie in front of the mirror.

<<Are you ready?>> he asked <<Almost,let me do my makeup>> you said sitting in front of the small mirror on your desk <<But you’re pretty the way you are Y/n,you don’t need any makeup>> Newt smiled,sitting next to you <<That’s why I love you. But don’t worry,I won’t use too much of it>> you replied.

You pulled out from the makeup trousse your mascara,a gloss,some eyeshadows and a few blushes you could choose between;Newt stared at you <<Are you going to look at me like that until I’m done?>> you joked <<I don’t see any problem>> he shrugged his shoulders,wondering how many things you had in the little bag. He began to analyse every single object you kept in it.

<<A pencil?>> he suddenly asked <<It’s an eye pencil,sweetie>> <<Cool>> he said,removing the cap and suddenly drawing a heart on your cheek. He laughed. <<Newt Artemis Fido Scamander put that pencil down>> you glared at him <<Why should I?>> he joked,drawing a cat nose and some whiskers on his face <<Ta-da>> he laughed again. <<Oh my God Newt you’re not a three year old child,you’re a grown up man>> <<Oh come on don’t act like you’re the serious one-he shaked his head-what’s that?>> he asked <<Fake eyelashes. And no,don’t you dare to put them on because I’m not going to help you removing them>> you crossed your arms,amused by the boy.

He shrugged his shoulders again:<<Fine but can I draw you some whiskers too?>> he asked <<Newt we have a dinner in less than twenty min- >> your sentence was cut off by the tip of the pencil drawing a circle on your nose and three lines on both of your cheeks.

You blinked in silence looking at Newt sitting right in front of you with a proud face <<You’re such a cute cat. I’d carry you in my suitcase>> he smiled <<You think?>> you asked <<I do...wait what are you do- >> Newt couldn’t end the sentence without starting coughing surrounded by the dust of the blush you throw at him with a makeup brush.

<<What kind of poison is this?>> he asked between sneezes <<It’s called blush. You use it both to color you cheeks and to make an annoying boyfriend cough and sneeze>> you jokes,smiling at how the boy hated the way you reacted. <<So you think you can beat me?>> he asked grabbing your mascara and tracing a black line right in the centre on your face,painting the space from your forehead to your left cheek. <<You didn’t!>> you exclaimed <<Oh I did>> Newt replied,smirking and crossing his arms. You were sure you had never seen him being such an annoying dork.<<So you wanna fight uh?>> you demanded <<Fight me!>> he immediately replied.

The room was suddenly filled with little screams and laughters while you and Newt were fighting on who was going to win. You pushed him on the bed and with a red lipstick you drew some quite ugly and deformed daisies on his forehead and then you colored his lips,staining almost half of his chin with the lipstick because the boy kept fighting you back,with an eyeliner on his hand,trying to color your cheeks.

<<Okay,okay Scamander,stop! It’s enough!>> you laughed,falling on the mattress <<Don’t stain the white blankets!>> you exclaimed again,slapping the back of Newt’s hand <<I’m not!>> he mumbled,wiping away a tear:he laughed so much that he ended up crying.

<<We need to clean everything or we’ll be- >> you stopped talking once you stood up and saw your boyfriend’s face,ending up laughing once again as he looked like some kind of bad quality monster toy:his face was covered with red lipsticks dots and lines,different shades of pink blush and strange drawings of flowers and hearts made in such a bad way that it was quite hard to understand what they were. <<Don’t look in the mirror>> you taunted him,putting your makeup back in its little bag.

Newt walked towards the mirror and laughed,grabbing your wrist so you could see yourself too. You didn’t look better than him. <<We both look like cursed cats>> you said,staring in confusion at the mess that was your face:eyeshadows of different colors were all around face together with marks made in lipstick and eyeliner. <<I think we need to postpone the dinner-Newt laughed-what about some homemade pumpkin cake and a good film?>> he asked <<I agree. Let me just call the restaurant and cancel the dinner>> you replied,still laughing.

Newt: Are you mad? Y/n: No. Newt: So sharpening your knives at 3 in the morning is just a hobby?

words:1008

Summary: Newt accidentally body shamed you and when he tried to comfort you he found out how ticklish you were.

You missed Newt. And that was still an understatement. He travelled to America to set Frank free, and you needed to decline his offer to come with him because of your job. He was now gone for a few months and the only thing you get from him are a few letters and postcards. But you needed him in person. You needed his comforting words especially because you suffer from anorexia. When you first met Newt, you were that underweight that you only had skin and bones on you. He helped you on the path to get healthier again. And on the way you two fell in love with one another.

Truth to be told Newt wasn’t too happy to let you behind because you’re first his girlfriend and second you tend to overthink about what others think of you and your appearance. You still hadn’t managed to get to a healthy weight, and he hoped that you didn’t lose any more again.

As if Missing Newt wasn’t enough, you also had a pretty bad day. First you overslept and came late to work then you realized that you’ve forgotten your wallet so you couldn’t buy yourself something for breakfast and neither for lunch. After that you had an argument with your boss and as a result, he gave you even more work that you had to finish. When you were finished you walked home. Before you could take your wand out and conjure an umbrella it started pouring. Finally at home, you walked past the mirror in the hallway and couldn’t stop yourself to think you’ve gained too much weight over the past months. Sighing you walked in your bedroom to change into a shirt of Newt and a pair of sweatpants and then laid on your bed. You took the letters that from Newt from your nightstand and started reading them all over again like so many times before. Deep in your thoughts you didn’t hear the door opening and closing again. “Hello, Love. “, called an all too familiar voice, that you missed so much. You looked up and saw your boyfriend standing in the doorway with his shy smile. You wasted no time in getting up and throwing your arms around him, which made him chuckle softly. “I missed you!”, you exclaimed happily. Newt replied. “, I missed you too.”, as he wrapped his arms around you and laid his cheek on your head after he placed a kiss to it.  After a while Newt pulled away a little to look at you. “Hey, you’ve gained weight. You loo- “, at that your face dropped immediately and Newt interrupted himself when he saw that. You were aware that you’ve gained weight but hearing it from another person especially from Newt was an entire other thing. You felt tears build up, close to drop. “Hey sweetheart, what’s wrong?”, you just stormed out of your bedroom leaving his question unanswered as tears started to fall. Newt was left to stand there completely confused. He started to think over what he could’ve done wrong. Soon it hit him. Of course you would think he meant, that you would be too thick but that’s definitely not what he meant by what he said. He was trying to say that you looked way better and a lot healthier than he had ever seen you. He quickly got out of the room and called your name, but you didn’t answer. He looked in every room until he heard someone sobbing softly. Quickly he went in that direction to see you hiding behind the kitchen island with your arms around your legs and your head laying on your knees. And the worst you were crying because of him. “(Y/n).” , he sadly called you. You looked up and Newt saw your already red eyes and tears streaming down your cheeks. “Go away, Newt!”, coldness mixed with a little anger overtook your normally sweet and calming voice.

Normally he would now hug you and comfort you at moments like this but now he didn’t know what to do because he was the reason why you were upset. But he finally decided to hug you and comfort you. He slowly came closer like he would with a newfound creature of his. When you didn’t move away, he reached out to you and pulled you into his chest holding you tightly as you started crying even more. He held you like that pressing multiple gentle kisses on your hairline.  “I’m so sorry, (Y/n). You misunderstood me. I didn’t mean you’re gained too much weight. I meant that you look a lot healthier. And I’m so proud of you for that.”, he calmly explained. “Are you sure?”, your broken voice hurt Newt even more. He took his hands and placed them on your shoulders pulling you away slightly, so he can look in your now red puffy eyes. “I really do. I promise. “, he assured as he let his hands wander down at your sides to your waist. What he didn’t expect is that you jumped and squeaked at his touch on your ribs. Although you were dating for quite a while Newt didn’t know that you were really ticklish.

He shortly looked confused, but his expression quickly turned into a smile. As he began tickling you now purposefully making you laugh uncontrollably. „Please, Newt stop. “, you begged between laughter. „Hmm. “, he paused for a bit to let you breathe again, „I don’t think so. I love to hear your laugh too much. “, he confessed as he now attacked your stomach making you toss and turn trying to get out of his grip, but it had no use. „Please, Newt. I can’t anymore. “, you tried again. „Only if you promise to be happy again. “, he negotiated.

„Fine.”

“Promise?”, he asked tickling you one last time on your stomach drawing another laugh from you. “I promise. Just please stop.”

“Alright, I will stop. For now.”, his smile grew at the last part, and he pressed a sweet kiss to your forehead.

Child of the street

Newt Scamander x (child; witch) reader

Summary: Your parents were tired of you and kicked out. Luckily Newt found you before you could freeze to death by an extremely cold winter in England.   

Warnings: Mention of parents kicking child (you) out

It is winter in England and that means its freezing outside So, everyone is mostly inside tucked into blankets with hot chocolate in their hands. Everyone except for you. Well, you probably would have done the same thing if you could. The problem is just that you don’t have a home. Your parents didn’t want you and kicked you out at the age of seven. At some point someone called the police, and they took you to an orphanage. You lived there for a few months but most of the kids there made fun out of you because your parents didn’t want you. The teachers weren’t nice either. So, at some point you ran away. Since then, you lived on the road and hid from everyone in case they would take you back to the orphanage.

 Now you are sitting under a bridge holding your dirty coat, that definitely wasn’t made for this temperature and in addition to that it has many holes and you have long grown out of it, trying to bring some warmth back in your cold body. You would have a new one if you wouldn’t have given all your collected money to a homeless guy with an adorable dog. Your shivering right hand puts a dirty strand of (h/c) hair behind your ear.

“Hello? “, calls a to you unknown voice softly, which makes you jump. Slightly turning around you saw a man with brown hair. Definitely older than you with hazel eyes standing tall next to you and looking confused but softly at you. “Oh, um. I- I didn’t want to startle you. I’m sorry.”, he stutters out looking awkwardly at the ground. You debate if you should run away or not. On one hand he could call the police but on the other hand he looks really friendly maybe he would help you. After a moment you finally stutter a quite “H-hey.”. The man didn’t expect you to answer anymore and nearly walked away again thinking you don’t want to talk with him. So, he shortly looks up but directly looks at the ground again. “I’m Newt. May I ask what your name is?”

“(Y/N).”

He takes one closer look eyeing especially your coat. You shudder at the weight of his gaze. He takes off his own and offers it to you. “Here, you must be freezing.” You look confused up at him. “But t-then you’ll be cold,” you state quietly. “I have another one in my case. Please take it you’ll freeze to death,” you hesitantly reach out and take the coat wrapping it around you. You sigh as you feel the warmth of his coat. “Thank you,” you smile up at him and Newt smiles back down at you.

“Y-you don’t have a home, do you?” you look down and said sadly “I- uhm,” you take a deep breath before answering, ”No,”

Newt comes up beside you and points to the ground next to you. “May I?” he asks.

You only nod and he sits down next to you. You begin to play with the end of your coat as you always do when you’re nervous. “Where are your parents?” You shrug. It isn’t a lie you have no idea where your house is and if your parents are still living there.

“Are you lost. Maybe your parents are already searching for you. I could help you find them.” he tries to find out why a child at such a young age is alone on the street. You get tears in your eyes at the memory of your parents but only shake your head. “Can I help you in any way?” he asks after some time of silence. You think about it. Never in the three years you lived on the street someone cared as much as he does for you, so maybe he would take you in. He definitely saw how underweight and cold you are maybe he got enough sympathy to not just bring you back to the orphanage.

“Please, can you take me with you?”  you answer quiet and quickly, and he almost didn’t get your question.

“What? I-I don’t know, (Y/N). I’m not sure if that’s the best idea- “

“Please, Newt. I promise I’ll clean or cook, or both just please take me with you. Please.” you beg him and look at him with teary eyes.

“Fine.” he says sighing giving in your pleadings. “Really?”, you ask hopefully.

“Really.”, he confirms smiling. You practically jumped up with Newt’s long coat still hanging over your shoulders at which he laughed slightly.

“Well then, come along.”, he gestures to the direction of his home.

Along the way you both get to know each other better.

“Here it is.”, he announces as he opens the door.

Your mouth hangs open in surprise at the size of his home. As you step inside you are greeted with four baby Niffler running up your legs trying to steal any shimmering thing you possess. “Pumpernickel, Pumpkin, Pistachio, Persimmon!”, Newt warns with an authoritarian voice, “that is not how we threat guests!”. That however doesn’t stop the four and they dig into your pockets and stole every shimmering object and leave as fast as they came. “Sorry about that. They’ll bring this in their nest so we can fish that out later. Although you must get used to that if you really want to live here.”, he apologizes with a slight smirk.

 You lived there with Newt for quite some time now and he taught you about many creatures that he had.

“Who is this?”, you asked after you caught a little green stick like creature looking out of Newts chest pocket. He looks to his pocket and carefully pulled it out. “That’s Pickett. He is a bowtruckle. Normally they live on trees and are nearly impossible to spot if they don’t show themselves voluntarily.”, Newt explains as the little bowtruckle shyly stands on his palm.

“And why isn’t he on a tree then?”, you ask as Pickett eyes you. “Well, he was ill and needed a little body warmth to get better but now he doesn’t want to go back to his tree in fear the other bowtruckles would judge him. I tried everything that comes to my mind, but nothing worked.”, he goes on. After Newt finished his explanation Pickett walks to the fingertips of Newts hand and held out his arms motioning, he wants to you. “Hold out your hand.”, Newt commands. When you do, he let Pickett walk over to you. Pickett waits for a moment before he snuggles up into your hand. “He likes you.”, he states with a little proud smile. He looks at your confused expression and laughs at that. Truth to be told you don’t know much about physical affection. You haven’t really experienced it before, not from anyone may it be human or creature. That’s what got you confused you didn’t really know that people or creatures show physical affection to show that they like someone.

As he laughs and you only look more confused than before he tries to find a moment where he had heard you laugh but there was none. Sure, he had seen you smile and your eyes light up when you met a new creature and it liked you, but he never saw or heard you laugh before. He frowns, which makes you slightly worried.

“What’s wrong, Newt?”

“Why do you never laugh?”

“What do you mean?”

“In all the time I’ve never seen or heard you laugh. Why is that?”

“I don’t know.”, you look how Pickett makes his way over your arm to your shoulder,

“Maybe I just hadn’t had something to laugh about.”, you answer playfully.

“Oh, I’ll give you something to laugh about.”, he responds just as playful as you were. Suddenly he tackles you down to the floor and attacks your sides making you squeal in surprise, but that sound quickly drowns as you begin to laugh uncontrollably. “Please, Newt stop.”, you beg while still laughing. But of course, he doesn’t stop just yet. He loves the sound of you laughing. He loves that he could make his daughter happy. You have grown him to his heart, and he doesn’t want to let you go.

“Please, Newt. I can’t breathe.”, you try again. However, this time he stops. He looks at you as you take deep breaths to calm yourself.

“Why are you staring at me like that?”, you question.

“M-may I adopt you?”, he blurts out, which makes you freeze in shock.

“Wha- what?”

“I want to adopt you. I want to wake you up every morning teach you about the new creatures and I want to be by your side when you leave for Hogwarts. I want to be a father for you. That is if you will let me.”

You jump into his arms trying not to hurt Pickett, who is still standing on your shoulder, now grabbing a strand of your hair to not fall off of it.

“I couldn’t imagine a better father!”, you exclaim excited and happy at the same time. It is now here in the arms of your father that you understand physical affection and that it is something you want to experience many more times from now on.

Comparison

Newt Scamander x Reader

Requested by: @newtscamanderimagines

Word count: 1431 words

Summary: All your life you felt self conscious about yourself compared to your sister but luckily a certain wizard is about to change that.

Warnings: Reader compares herself to Tina and Queenie; Reader talking bad about herself

You sighed. You had still many things to do but instead of doing them you were staring yet again at the mirror. Bothered by the reflection, which looked back at you. Every time you looked at yourself you seemed to find more issues. Like why were you not as skinny as Tina? Why didn’t your eyes have the same spark inside them like Queenie’s? The list could go on and on. As you may have noticed you often compared yourself to your two older sisters, but you weren’t completely at fault for that. Since you were born your sisters were better than you and you were always compared to them by your mother.                                                                                                                                                                 “(Y/N)?”, the soft voice of Queenie called. Quickly you wiped the tears away that you can’t remember spilling.

“Yes?”

“Where going out searching for Newts creatures. Do you want to come with us?”, the mention of the man, on which you managed to have a big crush on, made your heart flutter, and your cheeks and ears blush.

“Um, sure. Let’s go,” you tried your best to conceal the fact that you were crying not a minute ago. You looked one last time in the mirror and walked out of your room to put your coat on.

Together with Newt, Jakob, and your sisters you were trying your hardest to search for any signs of the creatures from Newt.

“We’re going to find them, Newt,” Tina encouraged when you all came home with no trace of the missing creatures. She put a hand on Newt’s shoulder in response to that he smiled at her. You suspected for a long time that the two liked each other and this suspicion was confirmed by the look they gave one another. You sadly walked past them knowing you have no chance with him.

“Where are you going, sweetie? We’re going to have dinner soon,” Queenie called while hugging Jakob’s arm.

“I’m not hungry,” you stated. With your back turned you couldn’t see the concern in Newt’s eyes. You continued your way to your room with your head down.

The mix of chatter and laughter from the living room filled your ears, while you were laying on your bed staring at the ceiling. Tears run down your cheeks straining them with mascara. Unknown to you the little brown eyes of a certain bowtruckle with attachment issues were watching your miserable state. Pickett quietly left your room unnoticed by you. Truth to be told the little creature saw that his owner and you liked each other much more than friends from the moment you had seen one another. Since then, Pickett tried to bring the two of you together. Pickett walked to his owner and climbed on Newt’s shoulder. He tucked at a strand of Newt’s hair, which startled Newt a little. Pickett squeaked and pointed to the hallway.

“What is it, Pickett?” Newt asked confused. Pickett squeaked and pointed to the hallway again angrier and more desperate this time, showing Newt his matter was of great importance. Newt excused himself and followed Pickett’s directions. He got more concerned the nearer they walked to your room.

When they stood directly before Newt’s heart broke at the sound of the sobs you couldn’t hold back anymore.

The sound off someone knocking at your door made you jump up into a sitting position.

“(Y/N)? Can I please come in?” you heard Newt’s soft voice full of concern and sadness. You quickly wiped the tears away and made a big mistake. You looked into the mirror again. Your eyes were red and puffy, and your cheeks were stained with a mix of tears and mascara. You just felt overall ugly and immediately felt like crying again.

“Please, (Y/N). Let me in,” Newt’s soft voice called again, with an undertone of concern. You tried your best at wiping the mascara away and slowly walked to your door. You took a second thinking of your options but opened the door eventually. It was known that Newt isn’t really a hugger, but he couldn’t help himself when he saw you. In Newt’s arms you broke down again. For a moment he thought he had done something wrong, but you made it clear to him that you were comfortable when you clutch at his shirt pulling him even closer.

“What’s wrong?” Newt asked with sympathy in his eyes when you calmed down a bit. You didn’t really want him to know, so he was met with silence. Newt pulled away a bit in order to look into your eyes.

“Y-you can talk to me, (Y/N). You know that don’t you? So please? I want to see you smile again,” he begged.

“I-,” you could feel tears building up again, “I just don’t feel like I’m good enough compared to my sisters,”

“What do you mean?” he carefully asked. He didn’t want to push you but also wanted to understand what was bothering you. You sighed and watching how you began to play with your finger.

“I’m not as good as them in witchcraft neither am I as social. My eyes aren’t as special as Queenies. My hair is always a mess not like my sisters theirs is always perfect. My body isn’t as beautiful as theirs. I’m completely ugly. My-,”

“Alright, stop!” Newt interrupted your rambling, “I’ll not let you say those bad things about yourself,” you looked surprised up in Newt’s eyes.

“You’re so beautiful! Inside and out-,“

“You’re just saying that to make me feel better. You don’t mean that,”

“H-how can I just say that w-when you made me fall in love with you?” Newt whispered nervously now too looking down not daring to meet your eyes in fear he would see disgust written on your face.

“Y-you love me?” you asked not sure if you heard him correctly. He took a deep breath to calm his nerves.

“I love you,” Newt repeated louder this time. You still couldn’t believe what you had heard.

“Say something,” he pleated.

“I- but you’re in love with Tina,” it wasn’t what you wanted to say but the only thing you managed to choke out.

“What?”

“I- I mean you are always by her side and look at her like-,” you stopped your meaningless ramble when you noticed that your noses were nearly touching.

“Like?” he asked, and you could have sworn that you saw his eyes flickered shortly to your lips.

“Like she’s the most beautiful girl in the world,” you whispered as if it was a secret, and no one should know about it.

“But the most beautiful girl sits right before me,” Newt whispered back feeling his heart thumbing so wildly it already hurts. You just furrowed your brows and lowered your eyes. He carefully put a hand under your chin to lift your head so that you had to look into his eyes.

“Y-you don’t believe me? Then let me please convince you?” he asked hopefully in a moment of bravery. You slightly tilted your head in confusion but nodded anyway.

“I love your nose. I don’t know if you know but you scrunch it when you concentrate and meanwhile look incredibly cute.

I love your eyes. How your beautifully (Y/E/C) eyes twinkle with curiosity when you try to understand something or when someone tells a story,” The list went on until he complimented nearly every body part of you. You again had tears in your eyes but this time of joy. He even made yourself laugh about your insecurities.

“By the way I love you too,” you grinned.

“Really?” you nodded. In response to that Newt leaned slowly in, giving you enough time to back away. You slightly opened your mouth and met his lips mid-way. His kiss was pretty soft, but he didn’t fail to convey the love he felt for you. His right hand cupped your cheek, and his left was on your waist. Your hands were on his neck playing with the ends of his hair. You both pulled yourselves even closer to one another. When you eventually pulled away to catch some breath you just stared in each other’s eyes. After a few more kisses Newt laid down on your bed pulling you down with him, so you were comfortably laying on his chest. You talked for a bit, but you eventually fell asleep cuddled up in your loves embrace.

“Sweet dreams, my love,” Newt whispered and gave you one last kiss on your forehead before falling asleep himself.

Till the Day I Die?

Fandom: Harry Potter

Pairing: Newt Scamander x Grindelwald! Gn! Hufflepuff! Reader

Pronouns: they/them

Warnings: Secret relationship, Grindelwald is like 100% more frowned upon in this world. Kinda ooc Newt?

Word Count: 1.0k

A/N: Posted from my old account. I wanted to repost some of the works I did on my old account because why not??

Being the younger sibling of Gellert Grindelwald caused some problems while you were growing up. For starters, your brother was very upset at your insistence to go to Hogwarts. You insisted, though, wanting to spend more time with people you actually knew instead of complete strangers. Another thing about the school was the houses. Gellert wanted you to be in the house most similar to Soscrofa, which would have been Slytherin. Instead, you were placed in Hufflepuff, most similar to Vulpelara.

He seemed to dislike everything that you decided for yourself. And, when he became a more evil man in the wizarding world (killing no-maj’s and such), he made you swear that you would always be on his side. It was hard disobeying him, so you swore. 

You didn’t swear that you would be single for the rest of your life, though.

Maybe that’s an exaggeration. Sooner or later, Gellert would have found some pureblood to marry you off to. However, you could find your own partner on your own, which was exactly what you did. You met a sweet and caring halfblood boy from your house who was funny and considerate. Meeting him was a dream for little 4th year you, so falling in love was inevitable. 

You and Newt both knew that your brother would not like this new development, so you kept it hidden. From everyone that could possibly have ties with Gellert Grindelwald. That was easier said than done, which led to private moments being sacred between you and Newt.

~~~

The envelope you had received in the mail that morning was neatly written and sealed with a wax seal- one of a niffler to be precise. It wasn’t signed, but the handwriting was easily identifiable. It was a letter from Newt. With a happy grin, you quickly, but carefully, tore off the seal and opened the letter. There were only three letters signed onto the paper in careful cursive. ROR.

The grin on your face widened and you turned your head to spot Newt’s gaze already on you. You gave him a barely-noticeable nod and he smiled back. You and Newt both had an hour off right after breakfast, so the time was already declared by process of elimination. 

As soon as you finished your plate of food, you told your friends that you were going to go back to bed before your classes started and rushed off to meet Newt at the Room of Requirement. The ritual to enter seemed rhythmic at this point and you quickly gained access to the room of your needs. To your surprise, it was different than it typically was. Instead of a calming room with couches and books and a fireplace, there was a practically empty room. The fireplace was still burning, but its hue was pale pink. There was a chest at the end of a fairly big bed. You grinned, realizing that Newt was already sitting atop the bed, staring at the ground nervously.

You hurried over and threw your arms around your boyfriend, so happy to see him. “Newt, oh my merlin, it feels like so long since we’ve been able to be together.” You murmured into his neck. His arms circled you and he breathed in your scent.

“Too right, darling. I’ve missed you too much.” He pulled back, his hands coming to rub your arms. “How was the test you were nervous about? All good?”

After knowing and dating each other so long, the nervous-ness around each other seemed to fade away, but you could tell Newt was nervous about something. His eyes wouldn’t meet yours and he seemed hesitant to talk.

“I- uh, I passed it. All thanks to your study guide.” He smiled sheepishly. “How about you? How was everything on your end?”

He paused for a moment, “It was all fine. A-all good for me.” His grin was awkward. Something was bothering him.

“Newt, what’s wrong? You’re acting really weird.” You moved your hand to cup his cheek. He nudged it lightly with his nose when he snuggled into it.

“Nothing, darling. I’m per-perfectly fine. Just wanted to talk to you about something.”

You pulled away gently, “Uh, that's not terrifying at all.” Sarcasm tainted with awkward fear poured from your words, making Newt’s eyes widen.

“No, no, no, no, nothing bad about us, darling. I love you, you know that.” You nodded, chuckling awkwardly, waiting for him to continue. “It's just- you know why we’re hiding our relationship.”

“Yeah, my brother.”

“Right. And you pledged allegiance to him. But, being with me is kinda the opposite of being pledged to him, innit?”

“Where are you going with this, Newt? I thought you weren’t breaking up with me-”

Newt took a deep breath, shaking his head, “Not at all! The opposite really!” He paused, hoping that would reassure you. It didn’t do very much. His words seemed to contradict his earlier statement. “After school is over, you don’t have to go to your brother’s side.”

“Newt, he’ll hurt innocent people- maybe even you or me!”

He nodded, “I know. But, he’d do that even if you weren’t with him. He’ll come after me as soon as he realizes that we’re still together. Then he’d think you were betraying him.”

Your eyebrows furrowed and you glanced at him with an unreadable expression, “This really doesn’t sound like the opposite of breaking up with me.”

“Wait,” He said, moving to grasp your hand, “Please. I promise.” You nodded. You would trust this man with your life. “A few weeks ago I was talking with Professor Ada and I found out that he is a certified officiant for marriage. I asked if he was able to officiate even during the school year and he said yes.”

Your breathing slowed. “Do you- Do you mean-?”

He nodded, leaving the bed and kneeling on one knee. “Yes. I-I do. Will you, Y/F/N, marry me?” He pulled a ring from his pocket. Your eyes couldn’t focus on it because of tears.

Tears flowed quickly as you nodded. You fell to the height as Newt and you kissed him with as much love and admiration as you could. You felt the love Newt returned during the kiss. You could taste salt from your tears. You pulled back, noticed Newt was crying, and hugged him tightly. He was sobbing quietly in your ear.

“I love you so much.” Newt mumbled. “I will always be by your side.”

“Till the day I die?”

“Till the day I die.”
