I woke up with a start, the dreams flashing through my mind. The sheets were tangled around my legs and I was panting, sweat gathering along my brow. I wiped it, pulling the sheets off and standing up, pacing. I pondered over what to do. Shopuld I go and wake up Issy? She might need the sleep. I probably do, too - I should go back to bed. I walk tired towards my bed.
"Issy! Issy!" I shake the girl in the bed. "Wake up." I sighed, then reached down and booped her nose. Her eyes shot open instantly, and she swatted my hand away. I realised that she looked stressed. "Dreams?" I asked, and she nodded. "Me, too." I touched my temple. "But... I think they might have been memories." I sat down on the side of her bed as she thought about it. She rubbed her eyes. "Can you turn on the light?" She asked, and I did, then going back to her side. "I think I might have had memories come back to. But... why?" She looked at me, questioning. I shrugged, then sighed. "WHat came back to you?" I asked, and she shifted.
"I - well, I kinda remember the Gladers before... before we were in the Glade. Newt was there, and Minho, and Chuck, and the rest of the Gladers. We were in some kind of..." She trailed off. "High tech building? Then they put us in the Box?" I said quietly, something in my mind clicking. It must have in Issy too, because she turned to me. "If we have the same dreams, then they must be memories." She siad, stating the obvious. "And," she shifted again. "I have a brother. He... Amy, Thomas is my brother." She looked at me, eyes wide, hands wringing the covers. A smile spread over my face before I could do anything. "Yeah, and I have a brother here too." Issy looked at me, expectant. "Clint is my brother." I smiled, then got up off the side of the bed. "I'm going to go back to sleep. In the morning, we have to tell the Gladers our memories." Issy nodded. "Goodnight." She said, and I returned the farewell.
I collapsed onto my bed, tired. I thought about the morning, wondering about both how we would tell the Gladers what we remembered, how I would tell Clint, and which job I had. Then I let my mind drift, it coming to rest on an image of Newt, then I fell fast alseep.
