Be It Or Not Unbreakable Bond (Thomesa)

Chapter 18

"Easy....It's ok." He spoke, quietly as he stared at the frightened girl with beautiful blue eyes. She was curled into a ball in the corner of the treehouse and holding a knife with trembling hands.
"Where am I? Why can't I remember anything?" She responded, confused as she pointed the knife at him determinedly.

"This is all normal. We've all been through this." Thomas answered, calmly as he slowly crouched in front of her.

"How do I know your name? They told me I said your name in my sleep?" Teresa whispered, still confused as she slightly lowered the knife. She felt strangely safe with this brown eyed boy like she knew him yet she didn't remember how.
"I don't know...." He whispered back, softly as he felt himself getting lost in her beautiful blue eyes.

"Who are you?" She muttered, quietly as she stared into familiar brown eyes.
"I'm Thomas....But you already knew that...." He responded, softly as he also felt like he knew her. He intently stared at this strange girl, finding her quite beautiful with her dark raven hair, icy blue eyes and soft pink lips.
Teresa meekly nodded and silently stared at this boy, feeling a unknown connection to him.

"You'll remember your name in a cou—" Thomas spoke, quietly as he unknowingly moved closer to her.
"Teresa. My name is Teresa." She responded, cutting his words off as she felt a feeling of safety wash over her.

He paused at her quick response as he stared back at her.
There was silence filling the air, faint mumbling of the Gladers below could be heard as they stared at one another.

Thomas stirred awake, feeling a soft hand caressing his hair and unknowingly leaned into her soothing touch. He felt a familiar warmth pressed against his chest and tightened his hold on her small waist, nuzzling her neck. His eyes were closed, breathing her in as the past memory swirled in his mind. It was always there, the deep bond between them.

She giggled, feeling his nose move against her neck as it tickled her skin, making Thomas smile. Her fingers gently ran through his brown hair, making it more messier than normal.

"Your hair is so soft...." She whispered under her breath, as she stared at him in adoration.
He chuckled into her neck at her words, feeling like he had the best sleep in a while. It was because of her. Their legs were tangled together, bodies pressed against each other as the blanket protected them from cold breeze.

"We need to get up, Tom." Teresa muttered, softly as she burrowed into his warmth. He nodded against her neck, not moving as he felt too comfortable with her in his arms.
"Your making it harder for me to get up if you don't let go" She whispered, quietly as she clutched his shirt. His warmth was so addicting.

"I don't want to...." He murmured under his breath as he pressed a soft kiss on her neck. She shivered in his arms, loving his touch but willed herself to stay strong.

"You need to get up or Minho will come get you himself." She responded, still clinging to his chest and softly smiled at him. He slowly lifted his head from her neck, his tired brown eyes stared at her angelic smile.
"Do I get a good morning kiss?" Thomas whispered, softly as he pressed his forehead against hers.

"If you promise to stay safe on the run with Minho, I'll give you one." Teresa whispered back, feeling worried about his safety as she absorbed his warmth. She couldn't lose him.

"I promise." He muttered, quietly as he caressed her cheek.
She gently lifted herself onto her elbows and pressed a soft kiss against his aching lips, feeling him instantly melt.

"Now get up, Tom." Teresa spoke, softly as she shifted out of his strong arms. She giggled when she saw him frown and slump back onto the bedsheets.

The sound of her sweet laugh quickly made him smile as he watched Teresa run her fingers through her raven hair, tidying it up. Thomas slowly got up, pressing a light kiss on her head as he went to get dressed. Today would be a good day, he just woke up with his favourite person in his arms.
