The Scorch Trials Girl

07

Thomas and i walk through the deserted city. As we went in further into the city, I could see writing on the walls, graffiti more like.

Saying Wicked.
'World, In, Catastrophe, Killzone, Experiment, Department.'

Then we came to another wall saying
Thomas, You're The Real Leader.

I stared at the wall for five minutes then looked back over at Thomas. Who looked back at me. Wicked wanted Thomas to be leader and it was group B's job to kill Thomas or there was no way we could get the cure and get to Safe Haven. I had to come up with a plan.

This didn't feel right, something was up.

Suddenly i could hear the banging of drums, music playing from somewhere, I followed the noise, Thomas right behind me.

The music lead us to a group of cranks but not full-gone cranks.

There was a guy with several piercings and tattoos all over. His hair was long and white reaching well past his shoulders. But I barely had time to register this before the man spoke.
"Welcome Thomas. We've been waiting for you."

Thomas's P.O.V.
The welcome statement had shocked me, but before I could respond to the man he pulled Bella and I inside, then started ushering us through a tightly packed crowd of dancing bodies. I took Bellas hand, so I wouldn't loose her in the crowd. The music was deafening, each beat of the drums like a hammer to my skull.

"How do you know my name?" I ask.

The man laughed. "We watched you since you entered this part of the city. Then we saw your reaction to the sign, figured you had to be famous Thomas!"

Bella squeezed onto my hand tighter. She was frightened, of what they might do to us.

"You two might as well stay for the party," the man insists.

"No we're okay" Bella says.

"I insist you should, please, take this drink too, it'll calm down your nerves" the man says shoving a bottle into Bellas face.

"No!" Bella yelled. "I mean no, we shouldn't really be drinking this stuff. We've gone a long time without water, we need that first. We, um, just wanna dance for a while." She tries to act casual, but she was cringing on the inside.

"I offered you a drink" the man says, he seemed pissed this time.
Bella stared at the man, she grabbed the drink from his hand and took a swig, it didn't seem to affect her as much, she then handed the bottle to me. I took a swig, it burned like fire, searing my throat and chest as it went down, I broke into a lurching, wracking cough.

"That's just fine! Back to dancing ya go!" The man says.

Bella grabs my hand and pulls me out onto the dance floor.

I felt a soothing warmth, a calmness, growing and spreading through my body. I took Bella into my arms, I held her tightly as we swayed to the music.

Her mouth was against my neck. Every time her lips bumped against my skin, a wave of pleasure shot through me.

"I don't seem to trust them Thomas" Bella slurs to me.

"Me too" I say. I could hear the slur in my voice.

Bella pulled her head away from me, clasped the sides of my face with her hands. She stared at me, though her eyes seemed to jiggle. She looked so beautiful. More beautiful than anything I'd ever seen. Then memories of her came flashing into my mind. From the first time I laid eyes on her, to the time we kissed inside the Maze. Everything seemed to fade around us like darkness.

"Maybe its better this way" I slurred. "Maybe we can be with them. Maybe we can be together, until we're gone past the gone" I smiled at her.

"No Thomas" she says, her voice seemed miles away. "Don't....."

"Kiss me," I say. "Bells, just kiss me." My face drawing nearer to hers.

"No" she says resisting.

"Why not?" I pout.

Then the most painful thing she could say to me. "You're not........him." Her voice distant. "You could never be him."
And then Bella fell away, and my mind did the same.

I just saw Scorch Trials and I completely just died!

More Thomas and Bella moments coming up in the next chapter.
