Twisted tale of Negan

Brother

Waking up, I noticed I'm in my own home again, and God does it feel good.

The smell of fresh coffee filled my nostrils as i sat up in the bed.

I get out of bed and slip on one of negans t shirts, and make my way to the hallway, when I look directly in Katherine's room.

I half expected my little girl to be lying in bed, probably flipping through her curious George book, but of course she wasn't there.

I stood there examining the once full of life, and warm room.

I examined the slightly messy room. And smiled softly.

"Hey" negans soft voice spoke from behind me.

He places his hand on my lower back as he holds a cup of coffee in his hand.

"Hey" I say nonchalantly. I turn slightly to see him in his T-shirt and boxers.

"So I'd like to discuss some things over with you. If. You don't mind.." he says lowly as he hands me the cup of coffee.

I eagerly take a sip, and taste yhe bitterness of the black coffee. I swallow quickly and nod.

We make our way down the stairs and into the living area.

I sit down on the floor, and Negan sits right across from me.

"What is it?" I ask curiously.

"Rick and I had a little chat this morning. He's decided to let me be the leader of this place" he says smiling at the end.

I sat there with my jaw dropped, I know Rick would never just let someone take his spot. Especially since Rick has a strong reputation to hold onto. Everyone has always looked to rick for answers.

"That's.. that's great honey" I fake a smile and sip on the coffee.

"Well. Yeah, I've decided we go talk to a group that is located out west. I sent rick and Daryl out on a run today, basically looking for food" he says sternly.

"And they just went willingly?" I questioned.

"Well with enough persuading, baby I can get anyone to do anything"

I smiled at how cocky Negan was being.

"Well. If you say so, Mr leader" I stuck my tongue out.

He smiled, and my heart melted.

"Thank you lucy. Thank you for coming back to me baby"

And before I knew it I was brought into a tight hug.
--------------

Hours had gone by, and my duty shift came along. I usually watched the gates, with Maggie. I couldn't wait to see her and tell her everything thats been going on with me.

I see her walk up, with little jr on her hip.

I was a little puzzled as to why she is bringing him up here, she usually gets rick or Carl to watch jr.

"Hi Maggie!" I exclaim.

She looked at me and rilled her eyes.

Just then I remember what happened.

"Maggie? Whats wrong?" I questioned, placing both of my hands on my hips.

"Nothing" she says quickly. She set little jr in his chair as she looked out at the gates.

"Talk to me..." I said a little more quieter.

"You led me on." She said bluntly. "you lead people on. Its quite selfish if you ask me"

I sigh and run my fingers through my hair "Maggie, I'm sorr-"

"You didnt let me finish" she quickly says, cutting me off.

I nod understandingly and let her continue.

"You bounce around from person to person, you use them for your own personal benefit. It's wrong. Whenever I met you, you comforted me more than anyone else. And I guess it's because your husband murdered my fiance. But I liked to think it was more than that"

I cringed and eyed jr. "I did it for him"

She shrugged "You made me believe you actually gave a shit. I guess not."

"Don't even say that! You know I care about you! Its not my fault I dont see you like that Maggie" I defended myself. "You cant possibly be upset because I dont want to be with you. Youre my best friend Maggie. Please. Don't put me in this position, that's not fair"

She looked at me and shook her head "you're right" she said lowly.

Before I could say anything I heard thousands and thousands of groans coming from the front.

Maggie and I quickly snapped our heads in that direction to see a huge hoard coming our way.

I see rick sprinting our way, with complete and utter fear in his eyes, and his voice.

"Open the gates!" He screamed. As he sprinted even faster.

Maggie panicked "what? What do we do? If we open the gates they will get in!" She yelled.

I started screaming.

People started gathering up

"Guys! Get ready there's a whole heard and they are coming straight towards us!" I shouted down to everyone.

I look back to see rick almost to the gates "God damn it! Lucy open the fucking gates now!" He screamed.

I quickly jumped down and held my pistol close to me.

I quickly pulled back the lever and opened the gate.

Just in the nick of time rick came crashing into Alexandria, he fell flat on his face as he made it on the other side, he was clearly out of breath and in shock.

I quickly took out the few walkers that were close on his trail.

I shut the gate and locked it, there were hundreds and hundreds on bangs coming from the other side.

I look at rick who is laying on his back with a face filled with horror. Everyone tried to crowd him

"Give him some room!" I yelled.

Everyone backed up and let me through.

I noticed scratches and bruises all over his face. He was red and breathing hard, his eyes wide open as if he saw a ghost.

"Rick talk to me. Whats wrong?" I asked.

He still starred off into space.

I searched the crowd for anyone with a water bottle

"Hey! Give me that!" I yelled at Abraham.

He quickly handed off the water bottle. In which I poured on ricks face, who was still panting

"Calm down.. breath..." I said softly.

Just then rick began to speak "Daryl. He. He. He didn't. Make it."

My jaw dropped and my eyes began to water

"He told me to run. Told me to keep going. I looked back. I didn't see him anymore.. my brother. Hes dead!"

I looked over to see Negan starring down at the two of us.

"Rick you dont know that... Maybe he got out"

"Hes dead! And its all your fault!"  He pointed at Negan.

Negan quickly shook his head "I had nothing to do with this!"

Rick regained his balance and stood up chest to chest with Negan "you did this! You fucking murdered him. His blood is on your hands. You fucking idiot!" He screamed.
