(Thomas's POV)

I watched as y/n laid in the swaying hammock with her Y/H/C hair and arm dangling out of it. She was so peaceful and even beautiful.

"Oh you like her don't you," Chuck says

"What no I-I don't even really know her," I say

"But you want to know her," he says, I turn to look at her, the fire light on her face.

I shrugged and laid back in my hammock drifting off to sleep.

(Y/n's POV)

I wake up to the sound of birds chirping and Chuck walking around the hammocks.

"Hey, where's Thomas?" I ask stretching my arms, Thomas's hammock was empty and he was no where to be seen.

"Alby took him to put his name on the wall," Chuck replied

"Right," I stand up and stretch a little bit.

Me and Chuck walk over to breakfast and sit with Minho and newt like we normally do and Thomas was there too now.

"Morning my favorite shuck heads," I say setting my plate down, everyone says hi.

"Ready to find yourself a job today greenie?" I ask Thomas, he nods and smiles.

For the rest of the day me and Thomas help newt in the gardens and we all talk.

"Go grab us some fertilizer Thomas," newt says throwing a bucket and shovel at Thomas. I rip the bucket and shovel out of Thomas's hands.

"Manners newt," I roll my eyes but smile at Thomas.

"Hey Thomas can you go grab us some fertilizer please?" I ask politely, he laughs and nods waking off.

"Your in love with the greenie, your in love with the greenie," newt sings and I hit his shoulder,

"That's enough of that," I say laughing

I wasn't in love with Thomas but what ever he made me feel was a good and happy feeling and I wanted to be around him every second of everyday.

After a few minutes I heard screaming coming from the trees. I looked at newt then ran that way. I saw Thomas being chased by... Ben? He tackled him to the ground and tried choking him but newt came up and smacked Ben in the face with a large stick.

I ran to Thomas and fell to his side,

"Are you ok what happened?" I said in worry he stood up and wiped the grass off his legs.

"I'm fine he just attacked me,"

I watched as bens shirt was lifted to reveal a griever sting with blue and purple vines coming from it.

My eyes widened as the took him to the pit, Ben was my friend and my running partner now he was stung and would be banished at sun down.

I walked away to the watch tower and Thomas followed me. We sat at the top and looked out at the glade.

"What's gonna happen to him," Thomas asks

"He's been stung by a griever and he's dangerous so," I pause and breath, "he has to be banished,"

"Banished?" He asks

"You'll see," I say

Later I watch Ben be taken to the doors and pushed to the ground Minho cuts the rope holding his hands and he coughs out a lot of blood, I get closer to Thomas.

"Poles!" Alby yells and the pushed Ben into the maze, before the maze doors close he lets out a horrible scream, I take Thomas's hand on fear then look at him and let go, both our faces rosy.

"He belongs to the maze now," Gally says, I look down but nod, I couldn't morn over him, his suffering is over and he's in a better place now.

Later, Chuck, Thomas, and I all sit by our small campfire sitting in our hammocks. I fall into a deep sleep but wake early in the morning from a night mare.

I spring out of bed yelling and screaming and Thomas wakes up too, he grabs my arms as my breathing rate goes very high.

"It's ok y/n calm down it's ok," he says, seeing his face and hearing his voice instantly calms me down I take a deep breath and sit back in my hammock, Thomas sits beside me hand I hold onto him tightly.

"Are you alright," he asks

"I am now thank you," all the boys had been woken up by me so I look around an call out, "sorry everyone," they groan and I start to get ready.

I look over at the maze doors and see Minho and alby walking over their.

"Oh crap," I say I was supposed to be running with them today, "I have to go I'll see you all later," I say before sprinting over to them with my backpack.

"Sorry guys I slept in," I say when I reach them.

"That's alright, let's go," alby says,

We all run through the maze, normally alby isn't a runner but he wanted to retrace bens steps. Things didn't go as planned when a griever came out of the daylight and stung alby. Me and Minho pulled him away in a panic.

"What do we do?!" I asked

"We have to get back to the glade," he says, that would be a struggle though sense the doors were far from us now.
