2 years ago, Alexandria was overrun with walkers. Ron watched his family be torn apart. And when he saw a walker coming towards Carl, the love of Ron's life, he pulled Out his gun to shoot the walker.
But Ron had little experience with guns, and m...

"Hey. Get up." Ron whisper yelled, trying to be quiet. "Negan. Wake up." He said, gently shaking him. "Ronnie? What's going on?" Negan asked, the moonlight shining through the bars onto him. "We need to go. Now. I'll explain everything later. I promise." Ron said, looking around for any witnesses. "Ok." Negan said, trusting Ron.
The two left the basement, cautiously making there way to the wall. "We have to climb over. Quickly and quietly. Ok?" Ron, putting his hand on Negan arm. "Ok. What's going on kiddo?" Negan said, thinking he should know before he actually left. Rick might kill him.
"I'll tell you. Just trust me. I'd trust you. I do." Ron said, feeling it would take to long too explain. "Alright. I'm trusting you." Negan stated, starting up the wall.

The two walked through the dark forest, rain pouring down on them. The only source of light they had was the occasional lighting strike.
"Didn't you bring flashlights in that bag?" Negan asked, curious as to what was inside. "Yes. We're too close to Alexandria to use them. They'll see us." Ron said softly, making sure he didn't run into a tree.
"Look, I know you can walk around out here and do whatever you want. But I can't. If one of those fuckers sneaks up on me that's it. I'm done. And right now I can't see them or hear them over this rain." Negan expressed concern. "I won't let you get bit. And who knows. You could be like me." Ron said, thinking of Simon for a moment.
"I'm not taking that chance." Negan said quietly, thinking Ron was quite optimistic.

The sun was rising now, and the storm had cleared, although Ron and negan were still drenched.
"Where are we going?" Negan finally said, walking behind Ron. "Somewhere safe." Ron said crypticly, stepping over a root.
"Why? Wasn't Alexandria safe? What's going on? Are you and Carl having a fight and you decided running off with me would show him?" Negan said, theorizing. "No. Me and Carl are good. This isn't about him." Ron said, now following a road.
"Hey." Negan said, stopping. "What?" Ron asked, turning around. "What's going on?" He asked again.
Ron looked down for a moment, tearing up. He hugged negan, sobbing.
"What is it?" Negan said, hugging him back. "I can't lose you too. Don't go. I need you." Ron said softly through his tears. "I'm not going anywhere sweetheart. Especially without you." Negan said, tearing up himself now.
Ron took a breath and wiped his tears. "We need to keep moving. I don't want anyone seeing us." He said, still hugging Negan. "We need to talk. Scratch that. You need to talk. No one will see us. If they do, we can handle it. What's going on with you? Why are afraid I'm going somewhere?" Negan said, touching the ends of Ron's hair.
