Before Them (TMR Fanifc)

~Unnamed Person P.O.V.~

I'm walking with my brother, Graham, down the streets of Marion, Kansas just talking about random things like school, my present boyfriend, and his girlfriend and we hear this odd sound by the Main Street Park. We near the bush where the sound is coming from, suddenly hands are over our mouths, pulling us backward. I tried to scream but it was muffled. They led us to a room where I thought was under the gizebo in the park but it turned out to be in our basement at home. My brother was suddenly out of sight, I looked everywhere but I couldn't find him. I scrambled to the floor to my knees crying until someone put their hand on my shoulder. I looked up to see a woman with blonde hair. 

"Honey, you gotta get over yourself. He's gonna be safe from you now. You best be happy for him. After losing your mother and father, and you having the Flare, I think he's safe."  she told me. Anger rose within me. How dare she bring up my mother and father.

"The Flare? What's that and what do you know about my mother and father?" I snapped at her, shooting up on to my feet. She just walked off.

"Oh sweet, sweet Dani, you will find out soon. In the mean time you can go get David. I need to see him. Remember WICKED is good" she had said before she vanished.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up with sweat dripping down my face. Graham is my brother? David was my boyfriend? Well David was kinda cute. What am I gonna tell them? I can't tell them can I? I asked these questions in my head. Until I realized I knew my name. 

"Dani." I whispered. I realized Graham was sleeping on the floor next to my cot. He shifted a bit, probably hearing me whisper.

"Dani." I said a bit louder. Graham wakes up slightly. He looks at me confused. I still can't believe that he's my brother.

"Huh, what did you say?" Graham asks. I smile and shake my head playfully. How come I didn't remember him before. 

"I said, my name is Dani." when I said that he stood up and walked out. I sat there with a frown replacing my smile. What did I do? What did I say? I asked in my head.

"You didn't do anything, nor say anything wrong." a voice suddenly broke the silence I thought was in here. 

"Did I say that out loud?" I asked the voice that was behind him. I turned around to a tanned boy with chocolate brown eyes. David. Oh great what am I gonna do now?

"Yeah, you did. But there's nothing to worry about, he always does that when someone mentions the name Dani. I don't know why he doesn't like it. I don't think he does either. I personally love that name. It suits you." he sat down next to me. I didn't realize that I was crying until David put his arms around me and was stroking my hair saying it was okay in my ear. I put my arms around him and I sobbed into his shoulder until we fell asleep in each other's arms.

~Graham’s P.O.V.~

When she said the name “Dani”, I froze. It can’t be her, can it? Those shuck creators made me remember a girl named Dani that I left behind to be a part of something. They did this just to torture me more than I already am being tortured. I never told anyone about the memory because I thought I could forget about it. When I left, I stood by the door and I heard Dani.

“What did I do? What did I say?” she said sadly. You didn’t do anything, Dani.

"You didn't do anything, nor say anything wrong." I heard David’s voice erupt through the door. I can’t wait until he leaves, so I can say I’m sorry to her. I listened for a bit longer until I heard soft crying, then silence. I slowly opened the door to see David and Dani snuggling up together, sleeping. I have no idea why but that made me so angry I couldn’t even put it into words. I left slamming the door and stomping my way through the Glade. Some of the other Gladers tried to stop me from going wherever the heck I’m going.

My blonde hair was all wet from my crying. I was crying because Dani was sleeping with David. I can’t protect her from him, if he hurts her. I still don’t know why I have this feelings with her. Trust me I don’t like like her. No offense to Dani, but EWWWWWW!!!!
