The 100 Imagines/One Shots 💙

What are you thinking about? John Murphy

It was so dark out here. The noises coming from the forest were new to me. It used to be so quiet at the ark. 

I guess I have to get used to that. Everything seemed to be alive and ready to kill me.  I couldn't focus on my upcoming fears.

 All I could think of was today. We landed on earth. A planet so far away from my life up there. Everything changed today. I was locked up for so long.

 I never thought I could ever have so much Freedom. And still, I felt not happy. Confused and sacred. That was all I could feel.

I couldn't sleep. Not after all these events. I needed some time alone to process it all.

I slid down the tree I was leaning on. I closed my eyes. Just want some peace from those eventful hours. I drifted into a calm sleep. But of course, it didn't last long.

I woke up to a cracking noise somewhere near me. I flinched and held my breath as I heard careful and slow footsteps approach me. I tried not to move.  

It seemed like it passed as someone grabbed me and pulled me up. Now pushed against a tree I breathed heavily.  My eyes slowly began to focus on the Stranger before me. 

I knew him.

"Y/N?" said a raspy voice I heard a lot today.

"John? I mean Murphy?" I said while being more than surprised. He was one of the new leaders of our camp. I saw him a few times on the ark but we never talked. He was the typical guy who always talks back and seems to take nothing seriously. He was very sassy but besides his sass, there was nothing likable about this guy. But he is a handsome man, I have to admit.

In his defense, everyone here shows only one side of themselves and you never know what is under the surface. Nobody knows that better than I do.

"Yeah what are you doing here alone in the wood? I could have killed you" he said now a little softer than before. He was also out of breath.

He was very close to me so I got out of his grip and said " I just wanted to clear my head a bit. I couldn't sleep." I went back to my sitting position against the tree and he joined me soon after.

"Me too" was all he said but it made me feel more comfortable beside him. A soft smile formed on my lips but I leaned my head back so he could not see it. 

"What are you thinking about?" he asked in his typical sassy tone but it seemed like he actually cared. 

"I try to process the things that happened today," I said quietly. "What do you do here? Aren't you like kind of one of the leaders now and supposed to protect the others?"

He chuckled. " Yeah, I guess I am one of the leaders. But we can do whatever the hell we want remember? " he stopped talking for a few seconds. " But seriously I just wanted to get out of the camp for a little. And I wanted to look around a bit."

I nodded understanding. We stayed like this for who knows how long. Just quietly sitting next to each other. Enjoying each others presence. We didn't talk. But there was no need to. I was glad that I wasn't alone in the woods.  

Suddenly something cracked behind us. Our heads turned fast in that direction. I gasped. "Is some-" I began but John's Hand cut me off. We stopped and listened carefully. He was getting into a fighting stance. Then an animal came out of the bush. It was really small and looked absolutely not dangerous. My arm was still wrapped around Murphys and I could feel his muscles relax. 

I let out a relieved sigh and chuckled. All this panic for a rabbit. John looked at me and showed me his typical smile. 

Just then I realized how close we were. I still held his arm tight to my body and he was protectively holding my thigh. His body fully turned to me and our faces were really close. I could feel his breath. His eyes were now glued to mine. My heart felt like it stopped for a second.

His eyes drifted to my lips and then he slowly closed the small gap between us. 

His soft lips touched mine and let me tell you that was the best feeling in the world.

I instantly melted into the kiss. I couldn't help wrap my arms around his neck and my hands tangled themselves in John's hair. He gently grabbed my waist and pulled me closer.

This Kiss was the first of many...
