Don't Worry Darling

"hope"

Gally's pov

Today another stupid greenie will arrive so that means...no peace for weeks. The basic supplies are running out already so that makes the ideal time for the box to come up.

Since Thoma's death and half the glade that followed him, peace has been my number one priority as the new leader of the glade; It's been hard as the scrambles of the Griever's attack kept it almost impossible to live without fear.

Years passed since that and now the only thing that remains are the nightmares of that traumatic night, the group that once was too big to fit the glade now is a small community of only men around 16-22; Only Newt and Minho survived Thoma's plan, myself and them being the older ones made us have the position of leadership of the group.

Minho is responsible for the security against Grievers and even bad-intentioned people from the other mazes, Newt stayed for the care of agriculture and I for all the rest.

Since the disaster, people from other mazes came looking for refuge, some didn't survive and others became part of the family very quickly. The model of leadership is harsher than before, but that made everything more peaceful and organized; those years had hardened me but if that means everyone is safe and sound then I don't mind not getting more breaks than before.

As time passed, the worry of a future has been discussed often since there were no females; our bloodline would die with us. Making me worried and anxious; but That didn't keep lust out of the way, of course, relationships between Gladers became normal as loneliness grew.

The hope of new generations was lost.

But that changed drastically, once I was inside the box the greenie I thought was a boy, turned out to be a girl...a very pretty one; with very pale skin, big amber green eyes that resemble a baby dear, light brown chin ledged hair that at first glance made me, from afar, confound "her" for a "him", everything about her was delicate and feminine.

Maybe years around boys made me forget what feminine features looked like, her frail petite frame made me want to protect her from everything and everyone, her beauty felt nostalgic for some reason and protective too but that's probably because she's a girl.

She's probably around 16 as she still looked a bit childish, again, I don't remember what girls looked like so knowing if that was normal or not was a hard task.

Her big scared eyes snapped me out of my thoughts, she looked so small; curled in a corner staring at me. I made sure to make very subtle movements to not scare her; the poor thing looked like it was going to pass out if I moved too fast, then crouching in front of her to make it less intimidating, I tried to say in the softest tone possible.

"Don't worry sweetheart, you're safe...I won't hurt and won't let anyone do that too; can you come with me?"

I offer my hand to her, but she's probably not going to accept it but it's always good to try...after a few minutes and a lot of staring, she takes my hand.

Gosh my hand it's almost twice the size of hers

Her delicate hand took mine and I noticed some bruises there.

She needs to go to the med-jack to check if she has any more bruises

When I pull her up, immediately she falls as her legs are not strong enough to support her weight, before she falls completely, I hold her by the armpits and position her to get a firm hold.

"Hold on tight little one" I support her round bum with my forearm and a back to keep her very close.

I can feel her breasts on my chest

The motion only made me more aware of her fragility somehow.

She eagerly obeys my command as I feel soft arms curl around my neck and thighs on my waist, I smile a little, I was told that women are naturally submissive and now I realize that it's true.

what a good girl

"Look there's a lot of boys out there, but if you don't want to talk to them, we can go to a more private place; you won't even see them. What do you think about that?"

Trying my best to calm her down, speaking softer and caressing her exposed nape; physical contact isn't my thing but it seems natural with her and she seems to accept it well.

"Girls are very cuddly" I made a mental note.

She made a small nod agreeing not to see anyone...that made me satisfied inside for some odd reason.

I guide her head to my neck to hide her from the others, she melts immediately making me smile a little. With now her clutching me like a koala I say in my normal tone for Newt to pull us up, that seemed to make her nervous as I feel her tense.

"Shhh Don't worry darling" I caress her nape one more time before taking the rope that is pulled instantly.

TO BE CONTINUED....
