Thomas' POV
"Thomas"
It was the third time already that I had heard it. I was to my maximum ability of fright right now you would have thought I would be banging on the walls, running in circles and screaming at the top of my lungs. But trust me, I had already done that. There was no way out of here and I could do nothing about it.
The only thing that would pass the time was to sleep. Which, is what I mostly did anyway. But the most interesting thing about that were the dreams. One of my most recent dreams was about Teresa.
It was back in the cave where Teresa tried to kill me. Sure it turned out to be an act on Teresa and Aris' part but my heart was just too broken to forgive her.
"Tom," she said. "If it helps, I'm really sorry I hurt you. I did what I had to do back in the Maze, and being all buddy-buddy seemed like my best shot at getting the memories we needed to figure out that code and escape. And I didn't have much choice here in the Scorch. All we had to do was get you here to pass the Trials. And it's either you or us."
"I…don't…care!" I heard my voice ring. The intensity of my voice surprised me, although I was the one who had said it not too long ago.
"I'm just saying. If you care about me, then you should understand why I'd be willing to do whatever it takes to make it through this and keep him safe. Wouldn't you have done the same for me?"
By this time it hurt too much to take it anymore. I woke up in the same blank room I was in before my slumber. I was about to attempt to go back to sleep when I heard it again.
"Thomas"
Only this time it sounded more…real.
"Who are you" I said looking around in hopes they'd show themselves. It was silent for a while until a rattle and a bang sounded from the opposite side of the room.
"Hey" a head peeked out from a crack in the wall. It was Brenda.
"Brenda? W-whats going on? " I hadn't realized how insane I sounded. You'd think with the amount of sleep I'd gotten I would be in the best shape.
"Calm down. I'm gonna get you outta here."
"Wait, your leaving?"
"No. We're leaving."
