Solo ◇Thomas◇

By the time Thomas was allowed to go out and do his own things, the girls had put three small plaits in Spencer's hair on the one side and left the rest of it down. Now she was playing football with the girls and 3 boys. 

They had a small football that was broken but being held together with stitches. He watched as she smiled whilst playing with the kids and how they were laughing. 

He looked up to the mountains seeing Newt, Fry and Minho waving him up. As he made his way over Spencer looked up at him but quickly looked away when one of the boys stole the football from her. 

Thomas joined them taking a seat next to Newt and giving them all a smile in greeting. 

“I wish Alby could have seen all this.” Newt spoke up, breaking the silence and making them all look at him. 

“And Winston.” Fry added. 

“And Chuck.” Thomas also added. 

“He’d be proud of you, you know Tommy.” Newt says. 

“Yeah.” Thomas mutters rubbing his thumb along the small wooden carving he was holding. 

The kids' parents had called them in for dinner but they had quickly made their way back to Spencer. She had already plaited two of the girls' hair for them as they ate and was now doing the third girl's hair. 

Fry looked down seeing Aris talking and laughing with Harriet and Sonya, “Hey Aris!” 

Aris looked up, putting his hand up and waving, “Hey guys!” 

“I kinda like that kid.” Fry said, turning to Minho. 

“Yeah.. I still don't trust him though.” Minho chuckled, making the rest of them join in. 

“You're girlfriends nice though.” Newt teased Thomas. 

“What?” Thomas’ head snapped up from looking down at Spencer, “Who?” 

“Spencer dude.” Fry looked at him in disbelief. 

Thomas laughed, “She is not my girlfriend, she doesn't even want to call me her friend.” 

“You are in love with her,” Newt said, “It's obvious we can all see it.” 

“Doesn't matter if I did, she doesn't like me at all.” Thomas frowned. 

“You're blind.” Minho laughs, shaking his head, “Someone that didn't like you would protect you or your friends that she barely knows.” 

“That girl has only said a few sentences to the rest of us but with you, she speaks a lot to you.” Newt puts his hand on his shoulder, “Go down there and tell her how you feel. And if she doesn't feel the same then you can hit us all.” 

Thomas sighed, rubbing his hands over his face before standing up, “If she doesn't feel the same I'm feeding you all to the cranks.” 

Spencer tied the bobble on the end of the girl's hair that was now a small plait in the middle of her hair and the rest down. 

“Thank you!” The girl giggled and hugged Spencer tightly. 

She wrapped her arms around the girl smiling, “You're welcome and let me just say you all look beautiful.” 

The girls giggled as they ate their food and the boys next to them were talking about different games they could play all together including Spencer in all of them. 

“Hey..” Thomas started and Spencer looked up at him, “Can I talk to you?” 

The girls also looked at him and then looked back to Spencer who was debating whether to go or not. 

“She’d love to!” One of the girls said, pushing Spencer up. 

Thomas laughed at Spencer's shocked face. “I've known them for a few hours and they already are bossing me around.” She chuckled, moving to follow Thomas as the girls giggled and talked in hushed whispers. 

Thomas led her near the mountains just in view of the gladers. They looked at each other in silence both waiting for the right thing to say. 

“Pixie, i wanted to talk to you about..” Thomas trailed off, not sure what to say. 

Spencer's eyes widened, “Is this about the kiss? Look, we were both drugged, I understand. Don't worry i-” 

Her rambling was cut off as Thomas kissed her, she froze for a moment before kissing him back. He pulled her close and she wrapped her hands around his neck. Their lips moved together in a perfect harmony before they pulled away staring into each other's eyes. 

Minho wolf whistled, causing Thomas and Spencer to put their middle fingers up at him but not looking away from each other. 

“From the moment I saw you I felt attracted to you Pixie. No matter how you act, no matter how much you distance yourself, I want to be near you.” He spoke fast so she wouldn't interrupt him, “I like you a lot and I want you to be mine.” 

Spencer smiled, “I want that too.” She pressed her lips onto his quickly, “The first time we kissed even though we were drugged i loved it. I wouldnt look at you or talk to you because I didn't know if you felt the same or if it was a mistake.”

“You will never be a mistake to me.” Thomas whispers to her, smiling. 

She smiled blushing until it slowly dropped off her face now looking worried, “Somethings wrong, Crackhead.” She let go of him looking around, “Something bad's gonna happen, I can feel it.” 

“Between us?” Thomas asked, confused. 

She shook her head before stopping and realising, “Wicked.”
