The Difference Between(Alana's Story) Scorch Trails

Alana's P.O.V
   "Janson just face reality, I'm not going with you." I still had my arrow on my bow and animed at his head.

   "You know we'll meet you again." I say as I lower it. Janson looks at me than stands up, he grabs his gun than walks off. I watch as he disappears, I look behind me to see Minho and Thomas looking at me shocked. They snapped out of it for a while when Thomas says

   "I guess I'll take first watch while you guys get some sleep." We both nodded than went to go sleep. I laid down than closed my eyes as it slowly pulled me into darkness.

Alana's Dream
   *Newt stands there looking at me than I see my friends even the ones who died in the Maze. I smiled at them but, grievers and cranks started attacking them one by one, I ran to them and started killing them, I tried to save them but, I couldn't. Minho died by a griever, Thomas died by a crank, than Newt started to become a crank. When he started to become one, I covered my mouth as he came at me.*

Alana's P.O.V
   I screamed. I covered my mouth with my dirty glove than covered my mouth while I sobbed trying to stop myself from wake up everyone. I looked both left than right, these nightmares are haunting me every time I sleep now. I saw a figure in the dark, Minho.

   "You ok?" He says his voice soothing to me. I shake my head with my hand still covered acrossed my mouth, he walks over to me and asks me

   "Do you want me to sleep next to you?" I nodded my head. He laid down next to me with his arm stretched out for me to use as a pillow, I faced him while laying on my side.

   "Nightmare?" He asked me. I nodded than I added

    "It was terrible, everyone was dieing, Newt , Thomas and even you." I felt tears roll down my face, his hand touched my face, wiping the tears away. I looked at him, he pulls me toward him, turning into a hug. My eyes started to pull me away from reality slowly.

A few hours later.....

My eyes opened slowly to see the bright light. I sat up in a sitting position, the sun greeted me already up in the sky. I look down to see Minho still asleep, peacefully. I move his hair out of his face, when I'm done I got up than got my stuff together and got everyone else awake. When I was waking up everyone Minho woke up on his own, it would take more than a thank you because the nightmares are different each time but, mean the same thing. I walked over to him and say to him

    "Thank you for helping me sleep last night." He pulled me into a hug and say

    "I'll help you when ever you need it." When he says that to me I felt warmth fill my chest. That phrase made me finally feel.....safe for the first time in a long time. I pulled away and say

   "Thank you." I thank him again. We went and started to pack our stuff than we where off with the others. I was walking by Newt, he broke the silence between us by saying

    "Look like he likes you." I looked at him with a confused look than looked back ahead

    "Yeah right would Minho would ever love me. If he's in love it would have to be with Teresa, how would he ever love me?" I explain to him.

   "Ooo sounds like someone has a crush." Newt teases me. I nudge him a little making him move a little bit. He laughed a little, I looked behind me to see Minho talking to the boy in Group B. He looks at me but, I face forward. I feel my cheeks get warm but, it must have shown because Newt yells in excitment

   "You do like him!" I run to him and put my mouth over his mouth. And whisper to him

    "Shut up Newt, I don't want everyone to know." He nodds than I lift off my hand from his mouth, revealing a smile on his face. I roll my eyes and we just keep moving, I sigh thinking of what Minho did for me last night. I walk to Minho than walk beside him, I look at him than forward quickly. Our eyes met than I say as I look forward

   "Are you ok?" I ask Minho. I can tell that something is on his mind.

   "Yeah just thinking about something." He answers me. After that we walked in silence until we got into the mountain. The sun was going down than we settled to make camp. When everyone was settled Minho asked me

    "Can I talk to you alone?" I nodded than we got to our feet and than followed Minho. When we stopped the sun was almost past the mountain, Minho went on his knees and held my hand. What was he going to ask me?
 
    "Alana, do you like me?" He asked me than continued "In full honesty."

    "Yes." I say as a sigh. I heard a sigh from him and he asks me

    "Would you like to be my girlfriend?" I covered my mouth with my free hand, I was shocked for what he asked me.

    "Yes!" I answer with excitement. He got up from his knees and kissed me on my lips, our lips brushing against each other for a while. I pulled back, I looked at him, than he grabbed my hand than we walked back to camp, when we where coming back we heard everyone say "ooooo" except Tommy. I looked at him with sad eyes and he looked back at me with the same eyes. Something wasn't right, I walk over to him than sat next down next to him and ask

   "Tommy, what's wrong?" When I see anyone sad or angry it makes myself feel pain. He didn't answer me he just kept looking at Minho.

    "Tommy......please Tommy." When I say that he looks at me and says

    "Nothing." I can hear the anger in his voice. What did I do wrong? I got up than started to walk to the opposite side from where Minho and I had our first kiss. I than sat down and looked at the night sky, listing things for what I did to Tommy. When I made it to the last thing on my list I felt tears roll down my eyes quickly. Footsteps became louder by the second, I looked behind me to see Tommy. I turned my head forward toward the stars, he sits next to me and says

    "I'm sorry for what I did earlier. I wish I could just fix it but, all I can do it apologize." I didn't answer still looking at the night sky. I felt cold fingers on my cheeks, and force was there pushing my face. And when it was about to meet his lips, I pulled away. He looked at me in confusion, I felt tears roll down my face when I say

    "You can only make one choice. One choice problem, even if it might hurt one of your closest friends. I already made that chose, it might have already hurted you even if you didn't know it, I'm sorry Tommy." I saw in his eyes was pain. My chest started to hurt so much that I thought I was going to die. After he got up and left  was left there crying really hard. I wanted to die, I wish that everything went back to the way it was.
