THOMAS
You were sleeping comfortably next to Thomas, your head on his chest and his arms wrapped around you. That was until you felt him fidget while tossing and turning a lot. You were just opening your eyes before Thomas jolted upright, almost sending you off the hammock.
"(Y/N)!" He gasps, he looks really hot and bothered.
You sit up concerned, "Thomas, I'm here."
He looks and you with bags under his eyes. He looks like he's had a restless sleep, "Thomas what's going on, did you have a nightmare?" You ask.
"It was- it was more like a memory." He said, getting out of the hammock.
"A memory? Thomas what happened?"
He shook his head, "We have to warn the others, we have to leave. Tonight."
You stood up with him, watching as he quickly put his shirt back on.
"Thomas, it's not even morning yet." You said, putting your hand lightly on his bicep in effort to comfort him.
"The maze is a code. And I think I've solved it." He said, with a smirk on his face. You were in full shock when he bent down to give you a quick peck.
"Now help me wake Newt and Minho. We're finally getting out of here."NEWT
You were the only one awake in the homestead, your arms and legs tangled with Newt. The only sounds heard was the occasional movement of the maze, and some small insects outside. Your mind was somewhere else though. You were concentrating on what your life would have been like before the maze, your family, friends, interests ect.
"(Y/N)..? What are you doing awake?" Newt stirs, cuddling closer to you.
"Just thinking, shh go back to sleep." You say, tracing his forearm with your fingertips.
He kisses your temple softly, "what could you be thinking about at this hour of the night?"
"Nothing you have to worry about, I promise." You smile, laying your head on his chest.
"You can always wake me if you want to talk, love."
You couldn't help but internally light up when he called you that, especially in his somewhat morning voice.
"I know, Newt." You whisper, before finally feeling your eyes droop from tiredness.MINHO
Newt had begged you the day before to get up early and help him with the crops. He didn't mention the fact that you'd be awake before sunrise.
You awoke in darkness and headed outside where it was a tiny bit lighter. You immediately set to work, helping newt harvest several of the vegetables.
Once you were done it was about 5:30am and you went back into the homestead to sleep, but on the way you saw someone sitting in front of the maze opening.
You recognised it to be Minho and you rushed over, concerned.
"Minho, is everything okay?" You said, taking a seat next to him.
He shrugged, "do you ever just sit and think about what's on the other side of these walls?"
You shake your head, "I try not to, otherwise i tend to get my hopes up."
"But- there has to be a whole world out there that we don't know about. I need to get out of here (Y/N)." He says.
You place your hand on his.
"We're going to find a way out of here Minho, If it's the last thing we do."
You both sit in a comfortable silence until you rest your head on his shoulder, slowly but surly falling asleep.GALLY
It was your first night at the glade and you found yourself struggling to sleep. Instead of staying in your hammock, you quietly make your way over to the now-dead bonfire. You take a seat on the log and pick at your nails while your thoughts take over.
Your so invested in your thoughts of the glade and the maze, that you don't even realise Gally coming to sit next to you.
"You doing okay, Greenie?" He asks, gaining your attention.
"What? Yeah I'm fine, just couldn't sleep that's all."
He nods understanding, "The first day can be pretty scary, I know that I didn't handle it well."
You had to stop yourself from laughing, "Really? The big, bad, tough Gally was scared?" You tease.
"If you tell anyone I'll deny it." He smirks, softly nudging you in the side.
You let out a chuckle, before sighing.
"I just wish I could remember."
A wave of emotion came on Gallys face, but it disappeared just as fast as it came. It was a look of anger, regret and sadness all in one.
"Trust me when I say this greenbean, remembering will only make this whole thing harder."ARIS
You had finally taken a break from walking through the scorch, resting under some shade to sleep. Your head rests on Aris' lap while you try and get some sleep. The boys are still awake, talking about their plan for tomorrow. Aris played with the ends of your hair as you lay there, zoning in and out of the boys conversation.
"If Winstons not immune, we should assume that the rest of us aren't." Newt says, throwing a stick into the fire.
"I never thought idd say this, but I miss the glade." You hear Frypan say.
You couldn't help but silently agree, the scorch was really testing your limits, physically and emotionally.
"How's (Y/N) going?" Thomas asks Aris, you can now feel all eyes on you but your eyes remain shut.
"She'll be fine, she just needs to rest." He says, moving the hair away from your face.
"Good that- we all need to rest. We all look like a couple of ugly shanks who haven't slept in months." Minho says, before getting comfortable.
"It's sticks-" Aris says, before Minho waves his arm as if to say "yeah yeah whatever."
