[ soulmate. he wouldn't have imagined this happening to him here, on the bloody e train, on his way to his best friend's wedding, but lo, here he is. he's got a downright dazzling smile, for as small as it is, and newt almost feels his knees go out at the sight of it--maybe it's the adrenaline of the moment, but the butterflies in his chest are threatening to burst out of his throat any second now, and he can't keep his own smile from his face as he watches him roll up his sleeve (and wow, hello attractive, muscular arms, but he's not going to say anything about that out loud like other people.)
instead, he lets go of his shoulders, but it's obviously not a permanent thing; a small hand comes up to trace the words, his pale fingers brushing over the phrase that had come out of his mouth not minutes before. his soulmate, his bloody soulmate.
he makes eye contact again with his hand still on his arm, and newt scoffs softly, although it's not at all a rough sound. rather, he lets go again and untucks his button down, lifting the shirt up and his waistband down a little at the same time so he can see the word careful written on his hip in a stark black contrast to pale white skin. ]
Newt. [ he cocks his head, and there's a little bit of flirtatious in his smile. ] Can touch it if you like, too, I won't complain.
