Dylan arrived at Negan's house. He is sitting on the floor in between Negan's legs wincing and pulling away as his hair gets braided. The house is typical for the area. A brown carpet for the floor, rather bright yellow lighting, and a speaker on the kitchen counter playing soft black gospel. Negan smacks Dylan on the head. "Move again and I gon beat yo ass. Move again- don't test me. You was the one who came late. Now deal wit it", he says while Dylan sits and sulks. Negan applies some more coconut oil on his hands and looks at the door to see an electrical guitar leaning by it. "Ah cool, you ready for our next gig?" He asks, turning his gaze back to Dylan's head. Dylan looks at the guitar, but head is soon turned back to its place by Negan. "Yeah. I did, and I'm ready." Negan nods and looks at the time. "They gon beat you this time man, I'm sorry ain't nun I can do my man." Dylan, bites his lip and rolls his tongue around his mouth as he plays with his fingers. Negan and Dylan walk down the street. Dylan with just his bag, as he left the guitar at the house. They walk down a dark alley, passing a corner shop and a few houses. Peeled off paint, some dark and some with fading light. They reach a corner and turn down into it to see other men sitting and waiting. The man, who seems to be the leader, stands up and smiles revealing his bottom row of teeth to be gold. Dylan, unzips his bag and tosses a clear bag, with white contents in towards this man and steps back waiting for a response. Bobby examines the amounts and nods his head. "You late again man, third time this week", he says not looking up at Dylan. Negan stands behind Dylan with his arms crossed whilst looking down. "No excuses man. I messed up. I fucked shit up. I'll do better", Dylan says with his head up straight. The other men begin to laugh and whisper at the back. One removed his Durag and reapplied it, another brushed his Afro smirking at Dylan. Bobby looks at Dylan with a straight face, crossing his hands over his crotch. He then smiled, and said, "Ay it's cool man. Next time you fuck up, I kill that girl. Melissa." Dylan's eyes show it all. His fear and worry. He clears his throat and nods. The boys all follow Bobby out of the alley leaving Dylan and Negan there alone. In the silence.
