The maze runner and I

Saving Y/N

Y/N's P.O.V

I groaned at the pain that I was in as I slowly came to.

"That's it, Y/N, wake up, keep going." I slowly opened my eyes to see Thomas cutting my hands free.

"Thomas?" I whispered. He looked at me.

"You're okay. We're okay. And we're getting the fuck out of here." He nodded. I returned it as he helped me off the table. My eyes widened as Teresa lay dead on the floor.

"What happened?" I gasped. Thomas sighed.

"She wouldn't let me get to you. I kept warning her, but she wouldn't move. She made her choice." He gulped. I looked at him before taking his face and kissing him. He returned it eagerly, holding my waist.

"Come on, we have to go." I nodded, breaking the kiss and taking his hand as we stated to run.

"Where are Newt and Minho?" I asked as we ran through the corridors.

"I don't know, Ava took them. But from the sirens, I'm guessing that they've also escaped." He nodded. Suddenly, we ran around a corner and straight into the barrel of a gun.

"Woah, woah, it's us!" Thomas exclaimed as Newt and Minho pointed the guns at us.

"Jesus guys, I could have shot you." Newt puffed.

"Yeah, please don't." Thomas gulped. My eyes widened.

"Minho, watch out!" suddenly Minho was grabbed by Ava and she put her gun to his head.

"Minho!" Thomas yelled.

"Let him go." I spat. Ava ignored me as she looked at Thomas, who was now pointing his gun at her.

"You said that if I hurt either of them, you'd kill her. Time to make good on your promise." She smirked before pointing the gun at Minho's leg and firing, making him scream. My eyes widened.

"No, stop this. Let him go, no one else needs to die." Thomas spat.

"She does, Thomas. Do it." Ava snapped back. He clenched his jaw before grabbing me. My eyes widened as he pushed my back against his chest and wrapped his arm around my waist, holding me in place as he placed the gun to my head.

"Thomas, please don't do this." I choked.

"Shush, it'll be okay, just stay calm." He whispered in my ear before turning his attention back to Ava.

"You need her alive. So, let him go." He spat. Ava smirked and nodded.

"Okay, I give up. You can have your precious Minho back." She nodded, shoving him forward and making him wince as he limped to us.

"Now, we're going to walk out of here, and no one is going to stop us." Thomas nodded, letting me go and pointing the gun at Ava.

"Fine by me." She shrugged. I gulped.

"Thomas, something doesn't feel right. She's been fighting to get us for five years, why is she suddenly letting us go now?" I mumbled.

"All I know is that she's letting us go, so we have to go, now." He nodded. I gulped and returned it before starting to follow him. I looked back at Ava and my eyes widened as she raised her gun and aimed it at Thomas.

"No!" I screamed as she fired the gun. I shielded Thomas with my body, choking as the bullet went straight into my waist.

"Y/N, no!" Thomas yelled, catching me as I fell.

"You son of a bitch." Minho spat before firing a bullet into Ava's head. She looked at me for a second longer before falling down, a trail of red liquid oozing from the hole.

"Why did you do that, why?" Thomas choked as he pressed his hand against the wound.

"I couldn't let you die. Not after everything that we've been through." I gulped.

"So, you figured that it would be better if you died?" he choked.

"Pretty much." I nodded, chuckling slightly. He returned it and shook his head as tears started to fall from his eyes.

"Thomas, we have to get her to the plane if we want her to have a chance." Minho gulped.

"Yeah, yeah, okay, let's go, let's finally get out of this place." He nodded, picking me up bridal style.

"Thomas, I feel...I feel..." I let my eyes flutter shut.

"No, Y/N, don't do that, stay awake, come on." Newt spoke.

"Thomas." I mumbled, making him look down at me.

"Yes, the love of my life?" he smiled, making me chuckle slightly.

"I love you." I whispered.

"I love you too. But we don't need to say that because you're going to be okay." He nodded. I gave him one last smile before closing my eyes again and letting my body go limp.

"No, no, Y/N, stay with us, please, baby."

"Y/N, wake up, you need to wake up."

"Y/N!"

Thomas's P.O.V

Minho flung the door open and they ran onto the roof, Y/N still unconscious in Thomas's arms.

"Oh my god." Newt gulped as every building around them was on fire.

"There! They're here!" Minho yelled as a plane quickly approached the building before circling. The back door opened, revealing Vince and Brenda.

"Get on!" Vince yelled. Thomas gently put Y/N onto the plane before climbing on himself, followed by Minho and Newt.

"Go, go, go!" Vince yelled, making the doors close and the plane start to rise. Thomas rushed to Y/N and took her face.

"Vince, I can't wake her up, I don't know what to do." He choked.

"What happened?" he asked.

"She got shot. Because of me." He cried, tears running down his face. Vince looked at him and sighed.

"Don't blame yourself, kid. She'll be okay, she just needs to get wrapped up and have a few days' rest." He reassured.

"What if she never wakes up?" he sobbed, looking at him through glazed eyes. Vince sighed and looked down. Thomas looked at Y/N again. She looked so peaceful. But he couldn't let her die. He leant down and pressed his lips against her head, his tears wetting her skin.

"Come back to me, Y/N. I can't live without you." He choked before slumping next to her and holding his face in his hands.
