Finally (Reader x Thomas) maze runner

Chapter 8

(Thomas's POV)

A chirping noise wakes me up and I see a bird pecking ate our food supply, I lift y/n up a little too shoe the bird away but it wakes her up.

"Oh sorry," I say she blinks a few times but smiles

"That's alright," she says and everyone begins to get ready, she packed everything in her bag and put the backpack around her back pulling her hair behind her ears, I watched as she stood up and dusted some sand off of her legs, 'she is absolutely gorgeous' I think to myself. She noticed I was starring and blushed a little.

"You okay?" She asked smiling

"Yeah yep," I say blushing and looking away.

We start walking through the abandoned city and I'm amazed by all the broken building and debris.

We run up a sand dune as soon as we reach the top I looked at y/n, I could see she was very physically and mentally drained, I intertwined our fingers.

Suddenly Winston pulls off his back pack and collapses down the sand dune. We all run down to him, we make a small lift to drag him on.

(Y/n's POV)

We walk for hours in the sand storm, Then we find shelter under a large piece of cement. Thomas walks a little further away to look at the mountains and I see newt and Minho so I sit by them.

"Here," newt says handing me a bottle of water, I take a small sip and give it back to him.

"How's it looking," he shouted over to Thomas, "just a little further," he replied with, I noticed teresa had walked over there and was talking to Thomas.

Newt turns back to us and starts talking when Winston suddenly grabs a gun that was in frypans hand and shoots it upwards. Thomas and Teresa run over and Winston falls back.

"What happened?!" Thomas asks

"I-I don't know, he just jumped up and grabbed the gun and tried to," fry says grabbing the gun.

Winston spits out a large amount of black blood and falls back onto the sand.

"It's growing," he says lifting his shirt to show the cuts had turned black and purple and was spreading up to he chest.

"I'm not gonna make it," he says, I shake my head 'he can't die, not now' I think to myself.

"Please, don't let me turn into on of those... things," he says reaching for the gun in fry's hand.

Newt suddenly walks over, taking the gun out of fry's hand and sitting down next to Winston, he rapped Winston's fingers around the gun and stood back up.

"Thank you," he says, we all say our good byes, and start walking back into the scorch.

We walk for about fifteen minutes when I hear a gunshot fly through the air, my heart stops and everyone stops moving. I walk forward and place a hand on newts shoulder causing him to turn around. Me and newt were about the same height so our eyes met and I could see a tear running down his face.

"It's not your fault," a say as he whips it away, I give him a quick huge and we all keep walking.

At night fall we found a large ship reck where we made a small fire and sat around it. I sat next to Thomas, he had his hand on my thigh and my head was on his shoulder.

"I thought we were supposed to be immune," Minho says

"Not all of us I guess," teresa answers

"If Winston can get infected I assume so can the rest of us," newt says with his strong British accent.
