The Maze Runner Imagines/Preferences

Gally Imagine

You open your eyes. You turn onto your side to find Gally sleeping peacefully beside you. You give him a light kiss on the forehead and spring out of bed, getting ready for the big day ahead.

Today, Alby decided to assign more Runners. Gally was one of them. You were worried sick about what the Maze will bring the Runners today. Before you walk to the med-house, you cross tracks with Minho and you pull him aside. You stare him straight in the eyes as you say, “If anything happens to him, his blood is on your hands.” Minho shrugs his shoulders and takes off to the Doors of the Maze. You continue to the med-house, meeting up with Clint and Jeff. “What’s on the agenda today?” you ask, collecting your tools from a small wooden cupboard. “You, darl, will be taking care of Ben today,” Clint answers, giving you a new tool. You tuck it into the tool bag and groan. “Ugh, the Changing makes me feel sick.” “You were not cut out to be a med-jack, are you?” Jeff chuckles, sharpening a pair of scissors. “I want to be a Runner,” you grumble. Your mind wanders back onto Gally and you peep out the window. You see Gally standing at the Doors, laughing and talking with Minho. You hear a muffled grunt and the Doors spring to life as you see Gally race in after Minho. You sigh and walk up the stairs and into Ben’s room.

You slowly open the door and look into the room. You see Ben panting on his bed, webs of horrible veins painted on his pale white body. You gag and walk in. “OK, Ben, let’s see how you are.” You check his pulse (both carotid and radial) and feel around the muscles in his legs and arms. You reach to check the circulation in his hand when a white hand grabs your wrist. The initial shock takes a while to overcome and you pull away, but Ben’s grip was too strong. “It was you,” he croaked, staring straight into your panic-filled eyes. You call for Clint or Jeff and there was no response. “I know I was you,” he said in an eerie, sing-song voice. You panic and run out of the room. As you do so, you hear the sheets ruffle and footsteps thud across the wood. You run out of the med-house. You spot Gally in your peripheral vision and run towards him, Ben hot on your heels. He sees you and runs over to you. You run into his open arms. You break away from the embrace and you feel a weight so forced that you are knocked to the ground. You look up to see Ben’s face shaking from fury. “IT WAS YOU!” he spat in your face. “YOU DID IT TO ALL OF US!” You push him of you and back into Gally. Gally steps in front of you and pins Ben to the ground. “Stay away from her,” he growled, his hands cutting into Ben’s wrists. You lean against the wall of the Maze, panting. Two boys take Ben back to the med-house, and Gally approaches you, giving you a long, deep loving kiss on your mouth before walking to the Homestead.
