The maze runner and I

"Y/N, no!"

Y/N's P.O.V

I opened my eyes slowly as I heard birds chirping and people moving around in the glade. I yawned and rolled over before fully opening my eyes. My eyes widened.

"Shit." I whispered as Thomas lay next to me, eyes closed and head tilted towards me slightly. I had completely forgotten that I was sleeping with him. I gulped as I carefully placed a leg over him in order to get out of bed but that meant that I was straddling him.

"Hmm." He mumbled as he slowly opened my eyes. My eyes widened as he saw me. He smirked at me.

"What are you doing?" he chuckled. I gulped.

"I was trying to get out of bed...you woke up at the wrong time, I'm sorry." I gulped, moving my other leg.

"Hey, no it's okay, I don't mind." He chuckled again before taking my leg and putting it back so that I was properly straddling him. My eyes widened slightly.

"Morning." He smiled. I chuckled.

"Morning, Thomas." I returned.

"What time is it? I need to go into the maze with Minho soon." He yawned.

"I don't know, judging by the sun, it's-."

"Thomas, it's-oh." Our eyes widened and I looked over my shoulder to see Minho stood at the door, smiling sheepishly at us. He slowly raised his hands and started to back out.

"Minho, this isn't what you think it is." Thomas spoke as I got off of him and stood up.

"It's fine, I won't tell anyone, your secret is safe with me." He chuckled.

"It really isn't-." Thomas sighed as Minho left the shack, shaking his head and smirking.

"Don't worry, I'll talk to him." He chuckled as he grabbed his shirt and pulled it on. I nodded as he looked at me.

"I'll see you later, yeah?" he asked.

"Course you will. I'll be waiting for you guys like I always am." I smiled. He returned it before looking at my lips. He hesitantly leant down and pressed his lips against my cheek, making me close my eyes at the feeling. It wasn't much, but it was something. He pulled away slowly and looked at me. I gave him a small smile.

"Come back to me." I nodded. He smiled and returned it, giving my hand a small squeeze before running out of the shack and leaving me alone.

Thomas's P.O.V

Thomas and Minho walked through the maze, their boots ploughing through the layers of dust and sand. Minho looked at Thomas.

"So, buddy, what did I walk in on this morning?" he smirked. Thomas shook his head and chuckled.

"You didn't walk in on anything. Y/N woke up before me, so she tried to get out of bed, and the easiest way to do that was to climb over me. I woke up in the middle of her climbing over me." He shrugged.

"But...why was she still there when I arrived?" Minho asked. Thomas bit his lip and looked at Minho.

"Because I told her that it was okay to stay there." He admitted. Minho's eyebrows raised and he nodded.

"Well look at you, you little player." He chuckled, making Thomas laugh.

"I just, I liked the feeling of her there. I loved it, in fact. Fuck, I'm so deep in now." Thomas sighed.

"And that's a bad thing?" Minho asked. Thomas sighed again.

"No, not necessarily. But if anything were to happen to her, I'd never forgive myself. You of all people know that as soon as I became a runner, I made it my mission to get everyone out. But Y/N made the stakes so much higher. I love her, Minho. I need to get her out, I need to see if there's a life for the two of us outside these walls. I love her." He admitted. Minho nodded at his confession.

"We'll all get out, if it's the last thing we do. I promise you that." Minho spoke. Thomas sighed and nodded as he continued to walk.

Y/N's P.O.V

I stood at the entrance at the maze, waiting for Thomas and Minho to come back.

"You okay?" I sighed as Newt joined me and slung an arm over my shoulder.

"No. They're still in there." I choked.

"They'll be okay, Y/N. They've been doing this for years, never once have they not come back." He reassured. I sighed and nodded. Suddenly the doors started to close, making my eyes widen.

"Newt." I choked.

"Shit, shit, shit." He mumbled. My eyes widened further as suddenly they appeared, but Thomas was dragging Minho, whose leg was injured.

"Run!" I screamed.

"Guys, run! You can make it, go!" Newt shouted as everyone else in the glade came to watch.

"Run! You need to run faster!" I screamed, tears pricking my eyes as I realised that they weren't going to make it. I gulped, my heart starting to race as I weighed up the options. My eyes widened slightly. I looked at Newt.

"I'm sorry." I gulped, making him look at me.

"For what?" he asked. I gulped again before sprinting into the maze.

"Y/N! No!" Newt screamed as I ran in and he disappeared from behind me.

Thomas's P.O.V

Thomas's eyes widened as Y/N started running, making everyone shout after her as Newt tried to pull her back.

"Oh, god no, Y/N, don't do this." He mumbled.

"What's she doing?" Minho panted.

"Running into the maze." Thomas gulped.

"Oh, no, no, no." Minho sighed. Thomas gulped and stopped as the doors closed with Y/N stood there. She panted heavily as she stared at them. His heart started to race at the magnitude of what had just happened. The girl that he had loved had just become trapped in the maze with them. That meant that the girl he loved was now as good as dead.
