"Quiet. Wait. Take a minute. Then we're almost there." Maggie said, as six of them stopped in the middle of the woods "About three miles out."
"You can't be serious." Negan said in disbelief. "Daryl just told us to go home."
"I didn't hear that." Maggie countered.
Negan held out his hand, sarcastically "Well, I think he was being subtle. He said they were armed with lookouts."
Rhea looked at him in annoyance "And my dad knows that I would never turn back."
"How're you gonna keep going, Rhea, huh? With what army?" Negan sighed and looked towards Gabriel "Come on, Gabe, back me up here."
"Our people are about to starve. I'm not going back to my family having failed." Gabriel shook his head.
Negan scoffed "Oh, Jesus. At least admit what you're asking of us, walking to our deaths for what, a-a sack of beans?"
"If you're more interested in saving yourself then protecting the people back home, you can go. We don't need you." Maggie told him angrily.
Rhea shook her head "We do need him, Maggie. I've already told you."
Negan looked at her, appreciatively, before pointing at Gabriel with his crowbar "Tell you what, you make me a promise in front of the goddamn priest, and I will stick around."
"Promise you what?" Maggie asked him in confusion.
"I do this for you... and we're even, we are good. I don't have to keep looking over my shoulder." He proposed.
Maggie looked at him, heatedly "We will never be even."
"Then you are gonna be down a soldier that you desperately need. Your call." He shrugged.
Rhea rolled her eyes and looked at her friend "Maggie, come on we need him."
Maggie looked towards her friend, and then back at Negan "You'd take a promise from me? Really?"
Negan nodded "Yeah. Who wouldn't? I'm assuming you are a woman of your word. I'm always been a man of mine."
