Mine: a Gally Fanfic (the maze runner) DISCONTINUED

Chapter 10

Silence swarms us and all eyes turn to Gally, Thomas and I. I begin to shake, not daring to look at Gally right now.

Out of nowhere Gally pounces forward and attacks Thomas. He begins throwing punches to his face and stomach, causing me to go into panic mode.

Thomas tries to fight back but he's nothing compared to an angry Gally. I see red in the boy I love's eyes and this is when my heart just breaks.

I can tell that he's trying not to cry and show weakness by punching the shuck out of Thomas.

Thomas begins to look frail and unable to fight back, this doesn't stop Gally though. He is still throwing punches wherever he can, trying to hurt Thomas as much as possible.

I decide enough is enough and I step in, trying to yank Gally off Thomas. I pull really hard yet he doesn't budge, damn he's strong!

Adrenaline pumps through me and I put all of my energy into getting Gally away from Thomas. I tug hard one more time until I feel a strong, powerful shove on my stomach, causing me to stumble backwards.

I hit the ground pretty hard but Gally doesn't seem phased by it. It hurts for me to stand up so I stay on the ground, clutching my stomach in pain.

Thankfully, Newt quickly rushes over and yanks Gally off Thomas, who is now bloody-faced. He deserved it.

Newt drags Gally out but not until he sends me a dirty look. I didn't even have enough time to explain myself before they both walk out of the door for some fresh air.

I look around and all eyes are still on me. Guilt seeps through me, they've got this all wrong! I look down at Thomas who is lying there, huddled up on the floor.

Anger flows through me. I pull my body up and walk towards him. I bend down, "You don't know how much I hate you right now. Stay away from me, stay away from Gally... Stay away from all of us you waste of space!" I scream at him before taking a deep breath and storming out the door in attempt to find Gally.

I wander round the Glade trying to find him before I hear crying coming from the deadheads. I run over, not wasting any time and see Gally slumped up on the floor with tears in his eyes.

I've caused this, this is all my fault. I should have told him sooner, maybe he'd forgive me then... But it's too late for that now. "Gally?" I whisper softly.

He doesn't even bother to look at me, "Just leave me alone y/n..." He says unconfidently. I take a step closer, there's nothing I want to do more than to hug him, but I know he won't let me.

He groans, "I said go away! I don't want you here just leave me alone!" And with that I slowly walk away, my heart shattering with each step I take.

I head back to the huts, hoping everything has simmered down before I bump into Newt. "Newt!" I grab his attention.

"Look y/n not right now, this is a bloody mess. If Alby finds out Gally attacked Thomas then he'll be banished!" Tears begin to swell up in my eyes, causing my vision to go all funny.

"I know Newt, I just wanted to protect him I swear! It isn't what it sounds like I promise!" I plead to him.

He sighs, "It's not me you have to explain yourself to, it's Gally."

I whimper, "I've tried, he's not talking to me. He hates me." This causes me to burst out in tears, not being able to control myself. Newt doesn't say anything back, just pulls me in for a well needed hug.

I wrap my arms around him, being comforted by his warm body. "Just leave it for tonight, we're all tired. Try talking to him in the morning." We both pull away and I nod my head.

It's getting late now, it's probably best if I just rest on it and think things through rather than rushing to explain myself. I need to let Gally know that it wasn't my fault though.

Thomas should back off now... But he probably won't, I mean- it's Thomas! Best not to think about that shank for now.

I head to the huts, absolutely exhausted from today's events. The second I walk in I feel all eyes on me, looking at me in disgust. Well that's great, everybody hates me now.

I decide to keep my head low and just get to my bed, trying not to make eye contact with anyone.

I successfully make it to my bed, wrapping the sheet around my body. I wish I wasn't here, I've ruined everything.

That night I silently cried myself to sleep.
