Running (Thomas x Reader)

A night in the maze - part one

(A/N I'm really really really sorry it's taken me so long to get back to this. But I was suffing with a really bad case of writers block and didn't want to write anything. As most of what I had been trying to get down didn't sound right to me. So here is part 1 of 2)

The fact that you ran into the maze was mad enough but now you needed to spend the night in there. You know there was a good chance you wouldn't be seeing tomorrow, but right now your first thought was Alby. You walked over before kneeling down to check his wound. "What did this?" you looked up to ask Minho. He sighed softly as he ran his fingers in his hair. "A Griever and if we're not careful, we will be next" Minho said as he looked around. "First off we need to get Alby somewhere safe" Thomas said. "I couldn't agree with you more" you said as Thomas helpped you lift Alby up off the ground. "Are you going to help us Minho?" you asked. As Alby was somewhat heavy, sure you and Thomas could easily manage but the more help would make it a lot easier. "Your both insane" he said clearly nervous about being there. You let out a soft sigh. "Minho, a freak out is the last thing we need right now." you told him. Your heart was already racing, you hadn't forgotten the stories told about the creatures that lived in the maze.

"We can either stick together where we have a fighting chance to see tomorrow or well you can pretty much stay there, because we're going this way" you said to him softly, before you began to walk along helpping Thomas with Alby. You could hear Minho huff behind you both, but he followed non the less. One less thing to worry about, just got to get out of here alive. you thought you yourself. You were taking in every itch of the maze as you walked, sure it was dark but there was a good chance you'd need to run and it was best to get a lay of the land.

The maze was just as big as the model by in the glade had shown it to be, there were so many twists and turns. But it wasn't untill you heard a roar like noise, that the three of you stopped. "Hmm I think we may have company" you said softly before looking to Thomas, he nodded before his eyes looked up. You saw a soft smirk appear on his lips. "We can hide Alby you there" Thomas said as he pointed to the vine that hung from the maze wall. You smiled and were a little shocked that you hadn't seen them yourself.

You both placing Alby down, before Thomas and Minho began to tire a vine around alby. Both began to pull him up the wall as the roar was heard again, your heart skipped a beat. "Come on boys" you said softly, tring not to sound as freaked out as you were feeling at that moment in time. But the next roar was so loud and so very close, that Monho rush off as Thomas crashed into the wall trying not to drop alby. "Coward!" you shouted, but you couldn't really blame him, You were sceared too. You rushed over and helpped Thomas tie the vine off, alby was now safely hidden. "Run (Y/N)" Thomas said as the pair of you saw the Griever. "Not without you" you said softly, Thomas looked right into your eyes before he pulled you close to himself. "If I was ever to do this it was now" Thomas muttered out before he deeply and very passionately stole a kiss from your lips. Before you even had a chance to think fully, Thomas ran towards the Griever. "This way!" he shouted at it before running down another path. The Griever didn't look twice at you before going after Thomas, before you could really had a chance to take a breath another griever appeared and headed right for you.
