THOMAS
You and Thomas have been in the glade for a couple of months now, you are a runner along with Minho, Ben and Thomas. You and Thomas have been flirtatious towards each other but you never really stopped to think of your friendship as anything more then friendly. Ever since you arrived at the glade you have felt a strong connection to Thomas that is different to the other boys. Your lost in your thoughts about Thomas as you run through your section of the maze. You run along side Minho, who is running out of breath. "I'm going to head back, it's almost dark." He tells you. He turns the next corner and out of your sight. You only have a little while longer to run before you can head back to the glade but you were starting to worry about how dark it was getting. You pushed the anxious thoughts aside and kept running, mapping the turns in your head. You ran for what seemed like hours before it started to get noticeably dark and you did a U-turn and backtracked your steps, sprinting towards the enterence. Your feet were hitting the pavement in sloppy strides, you were getting tierd but you pushed yourself to get out of the maze before the rumoured grievers would awaken. You heard an echo of your name being called "Y/N WHERE ARE YOU?" You recognised that voice. Thomas. "IM IN SECTION 2 TOMMY" you yelled back and you ran for your life. "FOLLOW MY VOICE, ITS GETTING DARK." You turned the corner that leads to the doors of the maze and collided with a tall, muscular body. "Oh thank god." Thomas says, holding you against him. He held the back of your head against his chest as you got your breath back. "Never scare me like that again, it's way to late for you to be out alone." you knew what you did was wrong so you just continued to hug him back. "You were worried?" You asked, looking up at him through your long lashes. "Of course I was. Don't worry, I gave Minho a piece of my mind for leaving you alone." He said, giving you a cheeky smile. "You have gorgeous eyes." He stated randomly. You looked down and blushed. He gently tapped your chin up with his two fingers and your lips were only inches apart. "Tell me to stop and I will.." He breathed. His minty breath fanned against your lips. You refused to say anything, you just stared at his soft, plump lips. Suddenly there was no distance between you two and you were entangled in each other. Neither of you wanted to break the kiss but eventually you had to come up for air. "I'm so glad you let me do that." He smiled.

NEWT
It was the early days of the glade, only a handful of boys were selected to enter the glade with you. The glade was once a depressing place to be, everyone there was just as confused as the next, with no memory of their loved ones and forced to slave away in an open field with no connection to anyone they were with. For a while, no one talked to each other. You simply co-existed with each other. However, You and one other boy with brown eyes and blonde hair would always talk through glances and stares. You knew the boys name to be newt, and for a while you would wake up early and watch him walk around the glade, picking weeds and collecting food from the crops. It wasn't until alby took a stand and inforced some rules that everyone started to include each other and talk. You and newt would explore the glade together everyday and sleep next to each other every night. You never would have guessed that inside he was really hurting, because when he was with you he was always smiling. You were the only light in this dark, dark place. As the months went by, more boys started to arrive and the glade had a strict order that was not to be messed with. It wasn't until you came back from the maze that you realised that newt wasn't back yet. He always came back before you and greeted you with some water and a single yellow flower. "Where's newt?" You asked alby, searching the glade. "I thought he was with you, he must still be in the glade." Alby shrugged, walking off. He took two steps and then you heard a piercing scream coming from inside the maze. You and alby shared a worried look before sprinting into the maze, following the screams. The other gladers stayed at the enterence of the glade respectively. "NEWT" you yelled into in the walls of the glade. "(Y/N)" you heard him gasp. You ran towards his voice and found newt collapsed on the ground, tangled in ivy. You fell beside him and started untangling him, not even waiting for an explanation. "My leg!" He hissed, grabbing hold of my hand. I didn't remove it, as I caressed his face with my other hand. "What happened?" You asked. He didn't reply for a long time. "I- i hate it here (Y/N)" he cried, "everyday I'm reminded that I have to live here with no memory of who I was. I had a family, friends and a home, I feel so alone here. It's painful." He ranted. "So you- you.." You couldn't Finnish your sentence, instead you were sobbing with him. "And what about me, huh? When you were just going to end it all, how did you think I'd react newt? Did you even think about this? We are all feeling the way you are, we all want our old lives back. You aren't alone here, You've always had me."
You both stayed silent after both your rambling, the only sounds being your heavy heart beats. After what seemed like days, newt cupped your face in his hands and smashed his lips against yours. After you recovered from the shock of him kissing you, you began kissing him back. "You'll always have me, newt." You breathed.

MINHO
"Truth or dare!" Gally yelled over the glade. You were sitting with newt and Minho, eating your dinner before deciding that a little game of truth or dare couldn't hurt. You made your way over with Minho and sat down on a log next to him. "We all know the rules so let's get started." Newt said, choosing to remain standing. "Alright sir. newt you can go first." Gally smirked, crossing his arms. "Truth."
"Why did alby really choose you to be second in command?" Gally asked. "Because I earned it." Newt replied, bluntly. "That's not the answer I was looking for" gally spat. Newt shrugged and turned to Minho and you. "Minho, truth or dare." Newt asked, with a wink. Minho looked at you and then back to newt, "dare." The boys wolf whistled around you. "I dare you to snog (Y/N) for 5 seconds." Your jaw dropped so low you could practically taste the dirt. You did not want your first kiss with the boy you've been crushing on since you first got here to be in front of all the boys. "I don't think-" you started but you were cut off by minhos soft lips on yours. Your lips worked in sync as you kissed him back. "Okay guys, keep it PG." gally teases, causing you to pull away. You watched Minho as he ran his tongue over his bottom lip, looking quite chuffed with himself. "Your an amazing kisser." He laughed, poking your side. You laughed with him for a while before returning to the game and watching the rest of the dares unfold before you. You couldn't miss the slide glances that Minho kept giving you trough the rest of the night.

GALLY
"Gally, this stuff is super strong." You winced, looking at the jug of yellow liquid in your hand.
"Hey, I had to make do of what we had. You'll get use to it." He said, taking a seat in your hammock. It was begining to get dark and you were awake with the rest of the glazers watching the sun set. "Do you think... In the life before this, you were ever in love?" Gally asked randomly. You looked at him confused, "I mean, maybe. Maybe not love but I'm sure I'd had my crushes here and there." You said, turning your focus on Gally who seemed in a trance. "I think I was, I would have had to be. I remember this feeling so clearly." He said, looking at you. It took a while before you realised what he has just said. "Wait, are you saying your in love with someone right now?" You asked, eyes almost popping out of your head. The only other girl in the glade was the new greenie, Theresa, and she just arrived two days ago. Your stomach twisted, youve always had a special relationship Gally that no one really understood. And you blaim your jeleous feelings on that relationship. "... Wait- Theresa?" You ask. Gally stares at you blankly, "and here I was thinking that you were the smarter one of us two." He laughed. "I'm not following..." You trail off. "Here let me show you." He said, before reaching for your cheek. You face burned under his touch and you saw him lean in. You closed your eyes as your lips made contact and in that moment you forgot everything around you. The feeling in your stomach was replaced with butterflies and your body felt week. You cherished this moment with Gally for the rest of your life.

ARIS
You and aris have been together since the first day of the glade. You escaped with aris and have never left his side sinse. You managed to escape Wicked's compound with some of group A and aris.  It's been 3 days and you were still on the run from wicked. Your water was running out and winston had just passed moments before. You walked by aris' side, falling in step with him. When it started to get dark you lit a fire and cuddled up next to him, using his body heat to get warm. "You alright?" Aris asked, snaking his arm around your waist. Your skin tingled wherever he touched and you found it hard to concentrate on what he was saying. "I'll be fine." You sighed, moving closer to him. "Are you scared?" He asked you. You nodded slowly. Aris moved a strand of hair out of your face, "I guess id be worried if you weren't." He laughed softly. You gave him a small smile. "Thomas knows what he's doing. everything's going back to be okay, I promise."
Your eyes started to get heavy as you stared at the night sky. Your body was intwined with Aris' and even though your were freezing and anxious about tomorrow, you felt almost happy.
You were happy that you weren't alone in the scotch, you were happy that you had escaped wicked, you were happy that you were alive.
Aris saw the small smile that was playing on your lips and you felt his stair. You rolled over to face him and he wasted no time in placing his lips on yours in a delicate, sweet kiss. "I'm happy that your with me right now." He smiled, reading your mind and adding to your list of reasons to be happy.

Newts preference made me sad not gonna lie.
