Falling Into Place

Chapter Seven

He pushed me on to the bed, and everyone stared at him in silence.

"Who the fuck was it?" He growled.

"Negan, nobody did!" One girl yelled.

"Shut the fuck up." Negan approached her. "Fine. You."

He yanked her up by her shirt.

"If none of you guys are gonna come clean." He turns to her. "You know what's gonna happen."

I looked desperately at Amber, and she looked back, slightly shaking her head.

I pressed my eyes shut, and tried to keep myself from saying anything. Until he pulled out an iron, and plugged it in.

Everyone stayed silent and watched her struggle to get free of Negan, who was holding her still with no effort.

I sat up, catching a quick glance at Amber, before calling out.

"It was Amber! Please don't hurt anyone, Negan..." I cried.

Ambers eyes widened and she stood up, freaking out. Negan let go of the girl and she scurried away.

"Amber."

"Negan, please... (Y/n) was stealing food- i, i-" she stuttered violently as she cried out.

"I also happen to know that Mark got some fucking pussy recently. Would you happen to know anything about that?" He grabbed Amber's forearm, pulling her close.

"Negan, you're hurting her!" Sherry yelled.

"She hurt me, she fucking cheated on me! Nobody does that." He smiled, loosening his grip. "Amber, do you want to stay with Mark, earning points, or do you want to stay with me. Living the god damn life?"

"I want to stay with you, Negan. I love you!" She cried, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Good. So you know what has to happen." He reached behind him, and before I knew what was happening he pressed the hot iron against her face. She screeched in agony, and I hop up, screaming at the top of my lungs along with everyone else.

But, deep down in my heart, I'm glad someone who's innocent didn't get hurt.

"Please, stop, Negan! That's enough!" Sherry screamed.

He dropped the iron, covered in Amber's melted flesh and blood.

We all stopped screaming, and he let go of Amber, who fell to the floor, grabbing at her fucked up face.

He bent over, hands on his knees, looking down at her twitching body.

"Now THAT is fucking nasty! So much for that pretty face of yours. On second thought, Mark can have you." Negan chuckled, leaving the room, and I laid back, despite everyone running over to Amber.

I breathed heavily and tried calming myself down. Don't faint, (y/n), don't faint.

"You did this." Sherry hissed at me, yanking me up by my wrist. I snatch it away from her and furrow my brow.

"The FUCK do you mean? I just stopped him from hurting an innocent person!" I snapped.

She got angrier.

"Yes, but he wouldn't have hurt her as much as he hurt Amber!"

"Are you fucking stupid?!" I stand up and off of the bed. "He would have hurt someone who didn't do ANYTHING! I'm just saying, maybe Amber deserves it for cheating? More than anyone who didn't cheat would've."

Sherry looked disgusted, and I just gave the fuck up and walked out.

Negan stood at the bottom of the stairs, a trail of holes in the walls behind him. As he saw me, he went through the door, and slammed it.

"Wait... Oh, whatever."

So, having no clue of what to do, I just sat on the couch and crashed.
