The First Glader |Gally X Reader|

my pie

Chapter 7

~ BILLY'S POV ~

It had been four months scene's I came up in the box. We got Jeff, Ben, Mason and our newest Landon. Jeff is our new med-jack, Ben is a builder, and Mason another builder. Oh yeah forgot to mention, After i got up to the glade, i became a bagger.

Landon got here about three days ago. He will most likely be a cook. He's almost as good as Frypan.

Alex and Gally have gotten a lot closer since I got here. Me and him get along pretty well but our mutual best friend is either Ben or Alex. Alex has helped me a lot. When I was being tested she was always there to help me if I needed it or if I just needed encouragement. Though she is attractive she's not really my type. Now Landon on the other hand is my type. Yeah im gay. I'm pretty sure he is too. I think I saw him checking Alby out. But then again he is super touchy with Alex. But he is super attra-

"YO BILLY! I COULD USE SOME HELP OVER HERE!"
Alex oh so graciously interrupted my thoughts.

I looked over and saw Mason hit none other than Gally. I ran over Mason. I flipped him on his stomach with both arms behind his back. I pulled rope out of my bag and tied his hands together. I dragged him to the pit and overheard Alex yelling at Gally. I chuckled to myself.

' those two act like an old married couple. '
I thought.

~ GALLY'S POV ~

"WHAT THE SHUCK DID YOU DO NOW?!"

Alex yelled at me. She's developed some new slang. Apparently it's 'better than actually cursing' as she puts it.

"WHAT DID I DO?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME! MASON ATTACKED ME FIRST!"

"WHAT DID YOU SAY THEN?!"

"NOTHING! I JUST TOLD THAT HE WAS DOING NOTHING RIGHT!"

"WELL THEN THERE'S YOUR PROBLEM! YOU CAN'T SAY THAT TO SOMEONE OVER AND OVER!"

She took a deep breath.

"You can't just say that to someone over and over. It will cause a reaction like this."
She spoke calmly but sternly.

"Fine."

"Thank you. Now let's get some lunch ok."

"Ok."

Alex seems to be the only one to calm me down. I don't know why or how, but it is seriously annoying. We got some food, sat at a bench that me and Alex worked on the day before. We talked and Ben, Newt, Landon, and Billy came and sat down. Minho and Alby were out in the maze. Landon and Billy both sat on the floor due to there being no room on the bench. I'm pretty sure they like each other. Which is cool. I don't really care.

~ ALEX'S POV ~

I saw Landon and Billy sit on the grass next to each other. I'm pretty sure they like each other, but won't admit it to themselves or each other. Which is so cute. I'm happy for them. As we continued to eat I noticed Gally kept glancing at me. I was confused but paid no mind to it.

~ GALLY'S POV ~

As we ate I couldn't help but steal glances at Alex. I couldn't help it. Over the past four months me and her have grown really close. And every time I'm around her I get this weird feeling in my stomach, and when she touches me it feels like my skin is on fire, and when she talks to me I just can't get enough of her voice. It's the most perfect thing in this messed up world.

"Hey Gally you ok?"
Newt leaned over and whispered to me.

"Hey, I'm fine. Why?"
I asked

"You spacing out hard dude."
He laughed at the end.

I shrugged and went back to eating. After that I went to do my job. We were building a large house. It was for all the gladers. So when we sleep at night we are not getting bitten by bugs, rained on, and staying warm. We already set down markers so we were starting with the walls today. But I just couldn't focus. My mind was too occupied thinking about Alex. How her hair fell perfectly, her voice held authority, how- no stop Gally. She's your friend. Your best friend. There it was again. That weird feeling in my stomach. I shook my head of those thoughts and went back to work.

When the dinner bell rang we all dropped our tools in their proper places and ran to the kitchen. We are all so hungry from working so much. Considering it was only me and Ben. Mason was still in the pit so we worked a shit ton. We built three walls and a small appliance closet.

After we got our food and scarfed it down Alex had walked passed. I stood up and ran up to her.

"Hey Alex, can I talk to you?"

"Uh yeah sure. Is everything ok?"

''Yeah , I just haven't talked to you all day."

"Oh ok."

"Have you eaten already? I don't want to keep you from eating."

"No, I'm fine, thanks."

"Alex, go get something to eat. We can talk later."

"No, we're already talking. I'm not eve-"

"Alex, so help me god, if you don't get something to eat I will tie you to a chair and force feed you."

"Ok. Ok. come on."

"Oh no, I already ate.'

"I know but I don't want to eat alone so come on."

As we walked back I could tell she was deep in thought. Dammit. My stomach started to do flips and my face got a little hot. She looked up at me and said something I was not expecting.

"Gally, do you ever feel like the one person you love the most is standing right next to you?"

"W-what? I-I mean yeah. Yeah I guess I do. Why? Do you?"

"Yeah. I do. It's funny cause I only feel that way with you."

She looked into my eyes and grabbed my hand.

I smiled down at her, thankful that it was dark so she couldn't see me blushing. I squeezed her hand slightly and continued to walk up to the kitchen. We got a few looks and some double takes. I didn't mind and I don't think Alex did either.

"Hey fry. What did we get today?"
Alex asked.

"Your favorite. Chicken, steak, mash potatoes, green beans, and fresh milk. Oh and some green apple pie just for you."
He smiled down at her.

We got her food, and the pie and went to our usual table. She finished her food and offered everyone else at the table, Alby, Newt, Minho, Ben Landon, and Billy were already at the table, they happily took a slice. I split mine with Alex. I knew she wouldn't eat all of it neither would I. So we split it. We both went for the last bit of the pie. I looked at her and she looked at me. We glared at each other.

"It's mine."
I said

"No it isn't. Fry made this pie for me so it's mine."

We continued to bicker until Minho took the plate and ate it himself. We all stared at him in shock. We all knew not to take something from Alex without consequences. Minho started to laugh until Alex stood up.

"Oh shit."

He stood up and made a run for it.

She chased him all around the glade before he ran towards us. No one tried to stop him but me. I put my arm out and caught him. Alex then proceeded to tackle him to the ground, give him a noogie, messing up his hair, and playfully slapped and punched his arm. We all spent the rest of the night playing around and talking.
