The Promise
@carolinawindsay requested a Gally x Reader imagine. Gally gives the reader a promise ring in the maze. Promising that when they get out of the maze he will marry her. However it is all a flashback!
Sorry that it is so late! School is crazy. Friday is my last day and Thursday is the last day of finals. I promise to be more active from here on out! Love all of you guys!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The day had started out just as normal as every other day. Waking up in my long term boyfriend’s strong arms. Needing to get ready for the long day ahead of me I attempted to break free of Gally’s loving warm embrace. As I wiggled around, his arms wrapped around me tighter pulling me closer. I giggled as he began to nuzzle his head into the crook of my neck groaning out in frustration, “Y/n stop moving, please”
“Gally I have to get up, Frypan needs me in the kitchen.” Smiling down I stroked his cheek lovingly.
He shifted his head away from my neck and looked me in the eyes “Stay a little longer, please?” His blue eye peering up giving his best ‘puppy dog eyes’
I chuckled at his cuteness, and sarcastically rolled my eyes “Oh No! My one true weakness!” The pout that completed the look soon turned into a sly smirk as I said “Fine, You win”
Laughing he pulled me closer as a smile grew on his face. A content sigh left his lips as he whispered “I love you so much Y/n.”
Smiling I whispered back “I love you as well, captain”
~~~~~Wee Time Skip to After Dinner~~~~~
“Good night Fry” I said over my shoulder as I ran out the door thankful that it wasn’t my night to do dinner dishes.
“Night Y/n! Thank you for your help”
I looked back with a smile “of course”. Before I knew it I ran into someone, and felt my self falling backwards. Before I felt the landing, strong familiar arms wrapped around me, then began to place me back on my feet. I smiled as I looked up at him “Hey Gal!”
A soft smile played upon his lips as he sweetly replied “Hey cutie,” as he leaned down and pressed a small kiss to my forehead.
A small gagging noise came from inside the kitchen. I quickly turned around just as Fry sarcastically said, “guys get a room.”
Gally and I laughed as we waved goodbye and started walking away. I was holding Gally’s hand, swinging our arms back and forth. As we got closer to our room, he pulled me in the other direction, leading me into the deadheads. “Gally why are we going to the deadheads?”
Not stopping he said “I have a surprise for you.”
I gasp before gently cooing “AWWW when did you get so soft? Planning a surprise for me?”
He looked away from me quickly as a light pink began to dust over his features. “Y/nnnnn”
As we entered the deadheads, I noticed a blanket placed directly under a hole in the canopy. I looked at Gally who still looked a bit flustered. I smiled at him dragging him towards the blanket faster before sitting on the blanket. He sat down beside me before laying on his back staring up at the stars. I quickly cuddled up next to him laying my head on his chest. I felt him shift a little and slowly sat up confused, “Are you okay Gally? You seem a bit nervous”
He quickly sat up and took my hands in his before whispering “I love you Y/n.”
He smiled and then pulled something out of his pocket. Dropping my right hand he slide something onto my ring finger. Looking down I gasped seeing a smooth wooden ring with a green heart sitting on my finger. “Its a promise ring, I want to spend my life with you. And I promise that the moment we get out of this maze I will get you a real ring and I will marry you. But only if you let me.”
I began to smile as tears ran down my face. Pulling my hand out of his I cupped his cheeks pulling his face down to mine before pressing a quick loving kiss on his lips. Gally laughed “I’ll take that as a yes.” I nodded not being able to find words.
A knock on the door woke me up from my memories. Shaking my head a little I called out “Come in.” The door opened as I turned around to see Brenda walking in.
As she walked in she smiled “You ready for today Y/n?”
As I began to think about the next couple hours I began to become a little nervous. Brenda noticed this and quickly assured me “Y/n? Are you okay?”
Looking at her I ended up sighing “I’m just a little bit nervous”
She giggled “well every girl gets nervous on their wedding day.” Laughing it off she said “let me help you with your dress.”
“I can’t believe that this is actually happening! With every thing that we have been through I never thought ‘happily ever after’ could ever happen again. Yet here I am, getting married to the love of my life. Off in our own little paradise, our safe haven.”
Chuckling Brenda continued brushing my hair “I never thought I would see you this way Y/n. When I first met you, you were a tough girl. Hardened by the scorch and the supposed death of Gally. Now you are soft and giggly.”
Blushing slightly I giggled “well you would feel the same way. Oh wait what about you and Thomas. I know you like him.”
She blushed and playfully slapped my shoulder, “Y/n I do not like him.”
“Oh that’s right you looovvee hiimmm.”
Her face began to grow a darker shade of red. As she finished adding the flowers in my hair someone knocked on the door. Brenda cracked open the door to find Minho standing outside. Quickly dragging him inside she threw in a “do not” before sitting down.
Minho looked at me confused before shaking his perfectly styled head. “You look absolutely stunning, almost as stunning as me.”
I laughed as I replied, “No one can look as stunning as you Minho.”
He chuckled before asking “are you ready?”
“Yes, I think so. Thank you for agreeing to walk me down the aisle.”
He nodded “of course Y/n,” and we walked outside as the ceremony began. As Brenda and Frypan reached the alter, the music began and everyone stood up turning to watch me walk down the aisle. Feeling more nervous I began to freeze, Minho noticed this and whispered “Y/n you will be fine. You look lovely. And I mean look at Gally’s reaction.”
Looking up I noticed that Gally’s eyes were open wide. Before I knew it he was wiping away something on his cheek. Whispering to Minho I giggled “Is he crying?”
Minho chuckled “I think so.” Soon we arrived at the alter and Minho handed me off to Gally while sternly stating “Take care of her Gally.”
As Minho took his seat the priest began his little speech. Holding Gally’s hand I looked into his eyes and seen that he was indeed crying. Smiling I mouthed, ‘Hey. You okay?’
He grinned mouthing back ‘Never better.’
The priest then said “I understand you both have your own vows.”
Nodding I began, wanting to say my vows first, “Gally, I remember when I first met you when I came up in that dreadful maze. You gazed down at me and I felt the fear fade away. Everyone told me to stay away from you, saying that you were the bully of the glade. But I didn’t listen because deep down I knew that there was not a mean bone in your body, just four walls. I had to break down those walls. I knew you were the love of my life. From our first kiss to the promise ring you gave me, to the day I lost you and the day I found you again, It had always been you. I never want to loose you again Gally. I promise that I’m forever yours and that I will always stay by your side, no matter what. You are my person, I love you so much.”
Gally smiled as more tears fell down his cheeks. Reaching up to wipe them away I looked into his eyes smiling. He then began his vows after clearing his throat. “Y/n you are the most amazing thing that has happened in my life. To be honest I still con’t understand how I got so lucky. The day you came up I knew that my life was going to change. I knew that I had to have known you from before the maze. I wanted to be able to call you mine, but was always afraid. Once I finally asked you out, I knew I couldn’t loose you to any of the other gladers. I promise you Y/n, that no matter what I am yours. I will never leave your side and will always love you even in death. I love you with my whole heart. You are my person as well.”
We both said our “I do’s” slipping the rings on each others fingers, then the priest said “I now pronounce you man and wife, You may kiss the bride.”
Gally, not wasting any time, dipped me slightly and leaned down pressing his lips to mine in a passionate kiss. Pulling me back up he hugged me spinning us in a circle before grabbing my hand and leading me back down the aisle. “I promise you y/n”
