Maze Runner One Shots (Requests Open)

Mixed Feelings-Part 2 (Thomas)

When I first kissed Thomas it really felt like a gotcha moment. It was like I had finally gotten the upper hand.

I definitely do not have the upper hand now. If anything I think I gave him the upper hand. Now being around him still makes me want to pull my hair out, but it also fills me with pure embarrassment. He also just avoids me as well which for some reason seems to be making this worse. After all, sooner or later we'll end up interacting. Even worse my friends were convinced we had a love story going on.

"Seriously Y/N? You're not going to admit that maybe, just maybe, you have at least a teeny tiny crush on Thomas?"

"Sonya, with all due respect, I would rather throw myself in the ocean than be with him,"I explained.

"Y/N, with all due respect, you are clearly lying."

"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"No."

"Yes,"I absentmindedly added. She stood there looking like she had proven a point.

"That's not fair. You tripped me up,"I defended.

"Did I?"She asked, feigning ignorance.

"Right now I am revoking your title of my best friend,"I warned.

"Mhm. And who will be taking my place?"She asked.

I looked around for anyone I even slightly knew. The only one was Aris.

"Aris, you're my best friend now,"I called. He gave me a confused look, and I guess he was so curious about what was happening that he walked over.

"Why exactly did you give me Sonya's title?"He rightfully wondered.

"She won't stop saying I like Thomas. Therefore, I had to pick someone else."

"What a great way of picking a friend. Plus, I can't do that for you. I think the same thing. Everyone does,"He shrugged before walking away.

"You have got to be kidding me,"I mumbled.

"Would it kill you to admit that you don't hate him?"She repeated.

"Yes. Yes it would."

"Listen. Either you admit it to yourself, and him, or he will end up dating someone that isn't you. Then, you'll get jealous and sad, and knowing you, probably also pissed. So just admit that you like Thomas,"She pleaded.

I hated that she actually made me think. What if Thomas did date someone else? How would I feel if I saw him with his arm around someone? Saw him be in love with someone? Kiss someone?

The thought made me sick, and not for the reason I would expect.

"Oh no,"I remarked.

"Yeah. So why don't you just tell him? I guarantee he feels the same way,"She promised.

"How?"

"Well, he kissed back, didn't he?"

She was pointing out so many things I had been purposely looking away from. Now though, I couldn't look away from this. Because when someone you hate kisses you you sure as hell don't instantly kiss back.

So maybe I do have a chance. I guess I've got to shoot my shot before someone else does. I also think she's right about me having a good chance of him feeling the same.

Thomas's P.O.V

"No. That is absolutely wrong,"I argued as Gally kept pestering me about the kiss with Y/N. Apparently, I kissed back and am in love with her.
