Running (Thomas x Reader)

A Night in the maze: Part 2

Your heart was racing wildly as you ran down one of the many paths in the maze. The griever was hot on your heels as you raced forward, you only praied you could out run it. You didn't even get a chance to work out why Thomas kissied you. Right now you know you need to get back to him but first you had to lose your new friend and that wouldn't be an easy task.

Every corner and turn you took, it seem to be right there behind you. It wasn't untill you come to a cliff, that a plan formed in your mind. If you could get to the pile of rocks and maybe just maybe to the other side of the large gap. You stood a chance at losing it. Your eyes looked around, before without very little choice you rushed forward and took the jump. The moment you touched down on the pile of rocks, you slipped down. Your heart skipped a beat when you lost your footing. But lucky for you, you managed to grab the end of a vine that hung from the large pile of rocks. You wasted no time in climbing up the vine and onto the pile on rocks again.

The griever roared as it saw you make the jump, but it was clear when it moved back, that it planed to follow after you. Without looking back you took another jump to the next pile. Just then Griever jumped forward onto the pile you had been on seconds before. Unlike you the Griever was so much more heavy, the moment it's legs touched down on the pile. The pile of rocks fell forward and crashed right into yours. You let out a scream, as you almost lost your footing. It was then that the piles of rocks began to fall like dominoes. With very little time you were forced to jump to the next pile of rocks. you could heard the griever trying to get a footing or even trying to reach you. You couldn't forcus on that, as you jumped to the next pile as you heard a loud roar of the Griever that was still behind you..

With the piles of rocks falling like this you had no time to look back as you jumped for the other side once it was in reach. You managed to grab it with one hand, you began to slowly lose your grip. Your mind though of Thomas, about the other gladers, even Minho. Just as your hand slipped, your felt someone grab hold of your wrist, you looked up in order to see who had just save you. A smile formed on your lips as you saw non other than Minho. "How's it hanging?" he asked as he pulled you up. You couldn't help but laugh slightly once you were place down, you looked back to see the piles of rocks as well as the Griever were gone. At least that was one less thing to worry about.

It was then you look to Minho. "We need to find Thomas" you panted out slightly. You got to your feet and it was only now you noticed your knee bleeding. You wondered when you did it but the wonder disappeared as you heard another roar. Both you and Minho look at each other before rushing forward. You couldn't help but rush towards where the roar come from, in hopes you would find Thomas. As you turn the corner, finally saw him. he was just standing there, he looked out of breath but you couldn't see the griever that had been behind him before.

"Thomas!" you shouted as you rushed over to him, he opened his arms and hugged you, once you were close enough. "I thought I lost you" he said softly before you felt him press his lips against your head. At the moment you forgot Minho was there and simply enjoyed the fact you were in Thomas's arms. Soon enough you could hear Minho cought, your cheeks went a dark shade of red as you steped back from Thomas. It was only then that you saw where his griever had gone, it was crushed between the wall.

You looked to him and smiled softly. "we should go find Alby" you said finally. Thomas nodded as you felt him take your hand into his. As the three of you began to look for where you hide Alby your mind went over what took place that night. 

 As morning came, the three of you had finally found Alby and lowed him down. You right away checked if he was still alive. "his still with us" you smiled softly as both Thomas and Minho picked Alby up. You began to lead the boys out, you hadn't forgotten the path you come down. Your mind had taken in everything you had seen when caming into the maze. Soon enough you could see the Glade and non other than Chuck standing there. "Their back!" he shouted.
