Forever Last ~ Thomas x reader x Newt (Book 2)

Part 9: The scorch

*pretty big time skip* scorch trials begin here. No more maze!

—

We've just been pushed into a huge building, the doors close behind us as the armed fighters fought the infected people,

They were left outside, I didn't know what was going on, we had been taken on a helicopter,

Transported here,

Many of our friends died making it this far, there are less of us now, a lot less.

Jeff, Clint, hell most of the boys that came with us died fighting, I didn't even know all of their names,

Gally. He came back, but he was infected,

He took chucks life.

So Minho took his.

All thats left of us is Myself, Newt, Thomas, Teresa, Frypan, Minho and Winston.

—-

A man greeted us at the door,

He goes by the name Janson.

"Come along now, you must be exhausted."

Newt grabs my hand, giving it a gentle squeeze,

I look at my friends too, Looking to them first,

Thomas gives me a small nod and we follow him,

"But first lets get rid of that stench. Escort these kids to the showers please." He instructed two men,

We followed cautiously,

There was already everything we could need set outside,

Towels, soap, shampoo and conditioner, razors, body wash,

Even a fresh, clean set of clothes for all of us.

"Wow, I could get used to this."

"Sounds lovely." Newt snakes an arm around my waist, holding a towel in his other hand,

"Ew." Thomas rolls his eyes,

"Get a room." Minho jokes,

"There's a shower right there." I laugh,

Newt chuckles as well, before walking in to get cleaned up.

Once everyone walked away,

Thomas whispered to me,

"I think you'd have a better time with me."

"Don't start." I scold him before walking into my own separate shower,

By myself.

—

I turn the water on and begin to peel the dirt/sweat stained clothing from my skin,

I reach a hand out to feel the water,

I smile brightly as the water drips onto my skin,

I stand fully under the water,

The dirt runs down my body, from my back, down my legs, into the drain,

I lather my entire body in soap, I haven't felt this clean in as long as I can remember,

I'm so grateful to be able to shave again,

When I get out I'll be sure to feel like myself again,

To maybe even be truly happy here,

I mean, we made it out.
