"You protect and serve. You patrol, walk the walls, watch out for the kids. If there's a conflict, you solve it. And people will listen to you." Deanna says.
Y/N, Michonne, Rick and Deanna all sit in her home. She is giving the job description to Michonne and Rick.
"Because we're wearing windbreakers?" Michonne asks.
"Because they believe in this. Because i'm telling them to. A police officer used to live here. So we had these jackets and I wanted to make it official. So it's official." She motions toward the uniforms that the two wear.
"There's gonna be a government here one day. That's why I want Y/N working with me. There's gonna be a police force, that's why I want you two to start it. I see a vibrant community here with industry, commerce, civilization. Real lives." She notices the look on Ricks face.
"What? Does it sound like pie in the sky?"
Y/N shakes her head. "No."
"No." Michonne agrees.
Deanna looks up at Rick. "No." He says.
The four of them make their way outside, walking near the walls and solar panels.
"We need a constant patrol along the walls. Not just looking for damage, but signs that anyone climbed in from outside." Rick says.
Deanna furrows her brow. Rick continues. "You can move right up the supports. That's what I'd do. People are the real threat now."
Deanna sighs. "Rick, I know you think that we should all be armed within the walls. I can't do that."
He nods. "That's fine. You make these changes, we won't need to."
"Excuse me." A voice says from behind.
They all turn to look. It's Sasha. She walks up to Deanna. "I want to volunteer to be one of the lookouts in the clock tower."
"There are no lookouts in the clock tower."
Rick looks at her. "What?"
"We saw someone up there earlier." Michonne says.
"That was an empty rifle my son Spencer put up there. He mans it sometimes, but not often. There hasn't been the need." Deanna says.
Y/N shakes her head. "There's always a need. We need a lookout in that tower. 24/7."
Michonne speaks. "It's the only way we'll be able to see if someone's coming at us."
Deanna sighs. "Okay, okay. We'll make shifts."
"I'll take those shifts, as many as possible." Sasha says.
"Why?"
"Sasha's one of our best shots." Rick says. "She can do it."
Deanna looks at her. "I'm gonna put Spencer up there today. I'll consider you being our primary lookout, but I want something in return."
Sasha tilts her head in confusion.
Deanna continues. "Tonight, I'm hosting a welcome for all of you at my home. I want you to be there."
"Why?" Sasha asks.
"Come tonight. Then we'll talk about it."

Y/N slips on a lavender dress that Deanna left for her.It fits her growing stomach perfectly. She smiles as she looks in the mirror. Glenn walks out of the bathroom, wearing a nice button-up shirt.
He walks up to her and smiles. "You look beautiful." She turns around to face him.
"So do you." She gives him a quick kiss. She pulls away with a sigh. "You ready for this?"
"No. But I have you." He says, gently grabbing her hand.
The two walk over to Deanna house. They enter and are immediately greeted by several Alexandrians.
Y/N meets Deanna's husband Reg. He's very kind. Seems like a good guy.
After a little socializing, Y/N and Glenn spot Noah standing off to the side, quietly.
They walk over to him. "Hey." He says.
"Hey. You Okay?" Glenn asks him.
"Yeah. Just isn't really my thing." He huffs out a laugh.
Y/N nods. She understands. They spent so long out there, fighting every day. Now they're here, in fancy clothes, eating appetizers and listening to classical music.
"I think I'm gonna head out." Noah says.
Glenn shakes his head. "No, no. You're not bailing. We're in this together."
Noah smiles a little. Y/N nods. "You're here with us now. You're here with family." She says.
She wraps an arm around his shoulders. "Come on."
————————————————————————
For a while, the three of them sit around with Rosita, Abe, and Maggie.They talk quietly. They people-watch. Abe drinks a lot of beer.
Sasha shows up at one point.
Aaron and Eric don't. Y/N assumes it's because of the man's still-injured ankle. Daryl doesn't either but she knows it's because he doesn't like being around new people anyway.
Everyone coddles around Judith. It's been a long time since most people have seen a baby. Carl hangs out with some kids his age.
Michonne and Rick make their rounds.
Some point during the party, Sasha suddenly raises her voice at a woman. "That's what you worry about?!"
The chatter stops. People turn to look at them. Sasha storms away.
After that the party dissipates pretty quickly. Within the hour, everyone is back home.
————————————————————————
It's been a few weeks since the welcome party. A few weeks since Rick and the others joined Alexandria.The group has stopped sleeping in the same house. They split off into other homes. Deanna even gave up another house for the group.
Y/N, Glenn, Tara, and Noah share one.
Rick, Jude, Carl, Michonne, Carol and Daryl share one.
Sasha, Abe, Rosita, Eugene, and Maggie share one.
Gabe sleeps in the church.
Glenn and Y/N have the main bedroom in their house. Tara sleeps down the hall, and Noah sleeps a door over.
Y/N cares a lot about him. In only a short time, she has become very close with Noah. Ever since the day they lost Tyreese.
Glenn and Y/N took him under their wing. Someone had to. They wanted to. He is with them now. He is family.
————————————————————————
"This is a bad idea." Glenn tells her."I am not letting you guys go on another run with those guys. Not without me there. They're dangerous."
"Y/N, please."
She turns to face him. Deanna informed her this morning that Aiden and Nicholas are leading a run in search of supplies for the power grid.
Noah, Glenn, Tara, and Eugene are all going too.
"Y/N, I know you hate me saying this, but you are pregnant. With our child. If something happens to you, I don't know what I would do." He says.
She shakes her head, a few stray tears spilling out of her eyes. "I have this terrible feeling that something bad is going to happen. I wouldn't be able to live with myself if something happened to any of you and I wasn't there."
He sighs, wiping away her tears. She looks into his eyes. "I'm going with you."
He nods after a moment. "Okay. But this is the last run you're going on until after the baby."
"Okay."
