Glader Love

The Perfect Night

Thomas and I finally stop kissing; I didn't want it to end, but it had to. I smile at Thomas. "Bree, I- I love you." He said with a serious but comforting look. Is this happening? Wow! "I love you too, Thomas! I never thought I would have admitted it, but I guess I need to now." I answer back with a huge grin. Like I said; I'm always smiling! He grind back at me and sighs. "Bree, do you know why I love you?" He asked softly and he wrapped his arms around me. I wrapped my arms around his waist and hugged him with my head on his chest. This is perfect. "No, why?" I asked quietly while yawning. "I love you because I feel like a whole different person around you. You make me feel good about myself and I really like that. I'm not scared of this place anymore now that you're here. I think you are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. Well, at least I remember seeing, which isn't any girl so I think you are the prettiest looking girl there is!" He told me as he took a deep breath. A tear ran down my cheek as I giggled at his last comment.  That was the nicest thing I have heard in the Glade. "Thomas, you're making me cry!" I say while sniffling a little bit. "Do you know why I love you?" I ask with a shaky voice. I'm not sure why I'm crying anymore, but it feels good to let all of it out. I've been wanting to cry since I arrived to this amazing but terrifying place. "No. Why do you love me? Of all the people here, why did you choose me?" He asked a little too quickly. All I do is smile at nothing. "Well, I love you because you are always right there when I need you and you're the nicest guy in the Glade to me and I really like that you respect me. I also think that you are cuter than all of the guys here and you are the hardest working one too and I mean that. I'm also not scared to be here anymore because I feel safe and comfortable around you and you make me feel great. That's why I love you, Thomas." I say with tears still in my eyes. Why am I so emotional? We stand in silence for a while as we still hold each other in our arms. "It's getting late. We should head back to the Glade and get some sleep." Thomas said sleepily. "Okay. Let's go. I'm about to fall asleep right here." I reply with the same sleepiness in my tone. We start to walk and then Thomas stops. He picked me up and kept walking. I rest my head on his shoulder. I pretend to be asleep when we reach the Glade so no one talks to me. "Tommy! Where were you and Bree? She missed her lesson with the builders! Alby is pretty mad." I heard Newt say. Thomas stopped walking and turned to Newt. "You can tell Alby that I said it was my fault she wasn't there, so if he is mad at here then he shouldn't  be and just be mad at me. I took her back to the woods and we kinda had a moment. She got tired so I carried her and I guess she fell asleep." I heard Thomad whisper. I guess that Newt was the only one who knew about us. " Good that Tommy. I'm happy for you. Go get some rest and I will take care of Alby." Newt said. Thomas walked a little farther until we reached our hammocks. He layed me down on mine and covered me up with my blanket. He kissed my forehead and went on to sleep. This was the best night ever.
