Gally Imagines

=SIXTEEN= W|C|K|D| Nightmares

Gally spun around in the under-water confinement...head throbbing, lungs burning...desperately searching, frantically pounding on the glass...Bubbles exploded from Gally's mouth as he screamed in a wild, panicked frenzy...

You were jarred awake with a loud, high-pitched scream that you suddenly realized was coming from you. Your ears were ringing, but still you screamed, and continued to scream Gally's name.

There was a deafening crash as the door to your hut was burst open, your bed lurched, and a second later strong arms grasped you, holding you tightly.

"Gally!" you gasped, "Water...drowning...you can't-"

"Hey, hey, Y/N, it's okay, I'm here-I'm here! Hey, shhhh, it's okay, I've got you," you heard Gally's voice through your sleep-filled haze, trying to calm you.

As the nightmare world slowly faded away and was replaced by the reality of the Glade, you were vaguely aware of a few Gladers stumbling into your hut, and-although sleepy-eyed-confusion and apprehension were etched into their features.

Tears rolled down your already wet cheeks as you shut your eyes tightly and shoved your head in the front of Gally's shirt, trying to shove yourself further into his arms and burry yourself deeper into the shelter of his body.

"Scram, Slintheads!" Gally shouted at the idle Gladers, who were taken aback by his sharpness, and groggily staggered out your hut door, banging it shut behind them.

"Hey, shhhhh, it's alright," Gally whispered to you in the sudden quiet of the room, gently rocking your quivering body. "It's okay, I'm here."

You had been so tired after a long day of working. Being a Builder was heavenly because you got to work with Gally-even though you rarely had the opportunity to talk or even work side by side-but it was also a lot of hard, physical labor, which left you exhausted (some days more than others) at the end of the day. You had dropped gratefully into your own bed, in your own hut, only to fall into a fitful sleep-nightmares of Gally being tortured by W|C|K|D.

"It was horrible, Gally, awful!" you inhaled his musky smell as you tried to steady your breathing.

"Don't think about it," he said calmly, stroking your hair, "just sleep; I've got you."

Your tense muscles slowly began to relax as Gally continued to run his fingers through your hair, whispering softly and reassuringly into your ear. Your breathing finally took on a steady pace as you focused on the beating of your boyfriend's heart, and the terrifying nightmare began to fade from your mind as you drifted to sleep.

~Time Lapse~

You slowly became aware of the sheets resting lightly upon you, and smiled, realizing that it must be early morning. You kept your eyes shut, reveling a moment longer in the glory of your soft, warm bed before you had to hoist yourself up and get to your job before Gally came looking for you.

Finally, after much inward nagging, you made a motion to slide out from under the sheets, when you felt your waist tighten, and realized that strong arms were wrapped around your middle. To your shock, you realized that it was Gally!

"Gally, did you stay here all night?" you asked somewhat apprehensively.

"Mmmmm..." he groaned happily, burying his face in your neck.

Tingles shot through your body at the pleasure of his lips on the side of your neck, and you fully relaxed into his arms.

"After you almost gave me a heart attack screaming my name last night, do you really think I'd up and leave you once you fell back asleep?" he mumbled. 

You giggled, placing your hands on his strong arms-still tightly around your waist-feeling hair and muscle. You pressed your back more firmly against his chest-to which he tightened his grip to fill in the slight bit of slack you created-and turned your head to look at him. He was smiling as he looked over into your eyes, and you took in his cute nose, gorgeous green eyes, firm forehead, and wondrously curved eyebrows, loving every inch of him.

You turned around in his arms, and found yourself nose to nose with the cutest boy in all the Glade. You stared into his mesmerizing eyes, dropping your gaze to his lips, staring at them; then, unable to contain yourself, you pushed yours into his. Feeling of the softness and warmness of those lips sent a quiver through your body, as you felt his fingers push into your lower back as he pulled you closer to him, deepening the kiss.

"I'd better go," he finally whispered. "If anyone caught me here, we'd both be dead."

You pouted, knowing that he was right, but still not wanting him to leave.

"Gally?" you asked.

"Mmm-hmm?"

You placed both hands on his cheeks, feeling the firm lines of his jaw, and stared into his deep green eyes. "I love you."

"I know," he said simply, then stuck his tongue out at you.

You laughed softly as Gally kissed the tip of your nose, briefly hugged you tighter once more, then slid out from under the covers, winking at you as he closed the door softly behind him.

You laughed again, and tousled your hair, running your fingers through it. Today was going to be a good day!

Ah! Can you imagine?! "The Maze Runner" movie shows Gally screaming underwater, and ugh--I just want to save him so badly! This imagine is kind of implying that Y/N could have seen Gally being tortured in this way by W|C|K|D and she's/you're having flashbacks, in dreams, like Thomas did. I Love Gally! <3
