Thomas's POV:
I was laying there until I heard footsteps coming my way. I closed my eyes, turned over, and faked snoring. Then the footsteps stopped. I waited for the person to go away. Then I felt a small body curl up in my side. I was surprised for a second, but then realized it was Lily. I protectively put my arm around her shoulders then my other arm around her back. I waited until I heard her soft breathing, then I closed my own eyes.
Lily's POV:
The heat that was coming off of Thomas's body kept me warm. I curled into his side even more and continued my sleeping. I fluttered my eyes open a little bit and let the blazing sun into my eyes. Then I realized Thomas was still sleeping. I wiggled out of his grip and stretched. Then I got really close to his face.
I opened his eye with my finger and whispered, "Thomas?"
"Mhmmm," he hummed as a yes while he was still sleeping.
"Wake up," I said creepily. He didn't even open his eyes. Time for plan B. I jumped on his stomach and kind of shouted, "I said wake up!" I rolled off his stomach as he bolted up breathing hard. I was giggling so hard that the entire glade groaned in annoyance.
"Don't do that ever again," He said between breaths as he held out a finger, which only made me giggle even harder. After another minute I finally calmed down.
"That's a bloody great way to wake up," Newt grinned, "anyway let's get to work."
We worked through the whole morning, then got a lunch break, then worked through the whole afternoon. They didn't let me work the whole time though. They made me get water breaks every twenty minutes. I noticed Newt looked uneasy as he glanced at the doors every five minutes.
"What's wrong?" I asked as I walked over to him.
He sighed in defeat, "their not back yet."
"Who?"
"Minho and Alby."
"Well work is done," he mumbled as he walked over to the doors. All of the glader's were in a half circle, surrounding the doors. The glade seemed to be a little too quiet. The doors will be closing in about thirty seconds. Then a shadow crept around the corner. I made out the shape of the body, Minho. Where's Alby? Then I saw another shadow. Alby. But Alby didn't look okay. He was slumped over Minho's shoulder. Minho was heard, grunting with determination. The doors started to close. Everyone was shouting and screaming, "you can do it!" "Leave him!" and "keep going!" The pit in my stomach grew like a sink hole. I glanced up at each door. I could have enough time to run in there and help him get Alby out.
