Our Family Too
|Hailey's P.o.v.|
Negan took off with Rick and the sun eventually came up, but nothing was the same. Nobody moved as Negans men still watched over us. I knelt there with my arms still holding me up, my body just wanting to give out. I've stopped crying, but on the inside I'm screaming.
Eventually Negan brought Rick back and made him kneel down in the middle of the clearing. I looked at the man who once seemed to have everything together but now is lost. Rick has blood splattered from the bat and Abraham across his cheek that I know he wish wasn't there.
Negan looks down at Rick , "Now, you're still looking at me like I shit in your corn flakes and that just ain't gonna work."
"See, after all that you still don't understand. So here it is the final game, are you ready?" Negan asks Rick.
My heart beat quickens once more afraid he's going to hurt one of us again and my fear was exactly right.
"Kid." Negan calls ordering him over with his finger. I look to Carl as he doesn't move an inch, giving Negan the death glare. I don't want him to go anywhere near that man, not after Glenn, but at the same time I fear what Negan will do if Carl doesn't. After already losing Glenn I can't let the same thing happen to Carl. The fear of losing him causes tears to form and I speak up.
"Please, no." I cry out to Negan my voice horse.
Negan ignores me, calling out for Carl once more. This time the boy stands up and heads over with no emotion. I watch intently not knowing what his plan with my boyfriend was. Negan asks Carl if he's a leftie or a rightie and once Carl answers in a sarcastic tone the man pulls out a belt and ties it around his left arm. My heart beat quickens as I fear Carls safety.
Negan grabs Carls hat and throws it to the ground before forcing him onto his stomach next to his dad. I straighten up still on my knees and shake my head. Carl looks to me as his face is pushed on the ground. He mouths, "I love you."
Tears fall down my face as I nod slowly. I feel the fear for both of us.
I watch as Negan rolls Carls left sleeve up to the belt tied tightly around him and draws a line on his arm.
"I want you to show me you get it Rick. So take the ax and cut your sons arm off." Negan orders.
My heart drops but after seeing what else Negan could do, it wasn't the worst thing.
Ricks eyes grow wide and the sweat on him intensifies making it drip off his hair. This man was in distress, we all were.
