Summary: Minho has a nightmare like the ones he had when WCKD were harvesting enzymes from him. When he's pulled out of his sleep he's surprised to see Gally there with a worried expression on his face

Minho wakes up and is lying on grass which seems familiar but can't place. He sits up and sees four walls on each side of the grass making a perfect square plot of land.

"No." Minho whispers.

I can't be stuck here again. Minho taught as he looked around the Glade and then spotted movement by the trees and began to run towards the movement. But then the Glade turned into a dark corridor and he frose in horror when he heard the roar of a griever and there it was at the end of the corridor and then it sprung towards him. Minho turned and began sprinting taking random turns whenever they appeared and narrowly avoided getting trapped in dead ends.

As Minho runs he's surprised when he feels something wet run down his cheeks and realises he's crying and has to hold back a sob. He takes another turn but then his body freezes against his will and he's being slammed against the ceiling. Minho let's out a final scream as the griever opens its jaw-

"Minho!"

Minho jolted awake taking in his dark room and let out a breath. He looked towards the voice who had pulled him out of his dreams but was surprised to see that it was Gally who stared back at him.

"Gally, w-wha.......what are you doing here?" Minho rasps, his throat sore from screaming.

Gally winces at how pained Minho's voice sounds and walked out of the room towards the kitchen.

Minho was surprised when he returned with a glass of water in his hand and gently sat beside him and handed him the water, Minho took it gratefully and gulped it down feeling it soothe his throat.

They sat in silence, Minho's breathing slowly becoming more calm and even. Minho was surprised when Gally broke the silence.

"So, you wanna talk about it?" Gally asked turning his gaze to him.

Minho sighed,"I dreamt about the dreams I had while WCKD harvested the enzymes from my body for the cure."

Minho looked down at his hands and flashes of the nightmare returned and then Gally's hand was on his shoulder anchoring him to the present and away from his mind. Minho stared at Gally.

"Breathe." Gally said holding Minho's gaze and gently moved his hand from Minho's shoulder to his chest. "Focus on me, okay?"

Minho nodded and Gally moved from sitting beside Minho to in front of him and placed Minho's hand onto his chest.

"Okay, breath in for four," Both Minho and Gally breathed in for four,"now out for four." They slowly released their breaths. "Now keep on doing it."

They kept on breathing until Minho slowly began to relax against the headrest of his bed, Gally gently placed Minho's hand against his side and began to get up when Minho's hand wrapped around his wrist, Gally looked down at him and Minho looked up at him the question in his eyes before he worded it.

"Can you stay, please?" Minho whispered.

Gally was surprised at how tired Minho looked, he wouldn't be the kind of guy who'd show how tired he is let alone speak about his nightmares and how he was still traumatised he was from what had happened to him at the hands of WCKD or would he be the one who'd say 'please' but, then again Gally wouldn't have been the one here taking care of him that would usually be done by Newt or Thomas.

So, Gally nodded and he could've sworn his heart stopped when he saw the look of relief Minho had on his face, Gally gently slid underneath the covers. Himself and Minho were mere inches away from each other's faces staring into each other's eyes. Minho's eyes were dark and were barely able to keep open, but Minho didn't allow himself to sleep with fear of the nightmares returning.

So Gally moved closer to Minho and gently guided Minho's head towards his chest and wrapped his arms around Minho's shoulders hugging him close to him. Minho responded by wrapping his arms around Gally's waist and let out a small hum. Gally gently began to stroke his fingers through Minho's short black hair feeling Minho slowly relaxing against Gally and drift off into sleep.

When Gally was sure Minho was asleep he risked placing a small kiss on top of Minho's head and fell asleep with the boy he cared about most in the world wrapped in his arms
