Devilish Soul (Negan x reader)

i. night

I sit upward in bed, breathing heavily, drenched in cold sweat. Another vivid nightmare. I use the sleeve of my grey hoodie to wipe my wet face.

My heart feels like it's beating out of my chest. My fear. The fear of death. I can barely breathe, but I have to calm down. I make my way to my feet weakly and go up and head to my parents room, well it's not exactly their room, or for that matter our house, but we are staying safe in here until the morning.

Why you might be asking? Well, we are in the center of an apocalypse. I never thought that this could ever happen.

I head into my parents room and lay on the floor next to my mom. The carpet is rough and scratchy on my elbows, but I feel safer beside her.

I begin to drift to sleep. Gently, her hand reaches down and strokes my hair. As I glance up, I see that she's awake. "Hey honey, another nightmare?" She whispers, as to not wake my dad, who's fast asleep beside her. I nod and she continues to stroke my hair.

I miss my old life. I had friends. Elisa, Anna, Mollie, and Sara. It sucks not being able to see them, or even being able to know if they're alive or not. The cell towers don't work at all, so I have no way to contact them other than seeing them in person, which is hard. I miss them so much. A tear slides down my cheek, I sniffle and wipe my eyes with my sleeve. I hear the rustle of blankets and see feet on the floor beside me. My mom taps my shoulder and motions for me to follow her.

We go into "my" room and she sits on the bed. I sit next to her and she wraps her arms around me and kisses my head. "I love you sweetheart. Everything's going to be alright, I promise. We will be safe, as long as we stay together. Promise me that you'll be strong." She says gently.

I nod, "I promise." She rubs my back and continues to hug me. It's probably around midnight right now, and I'm exhausted. My mom stands up and tucks me in, just like she used to when I was a kid. Then she pulls something out from the small drawer of the bedside table. A stuffed teddy bear, the one I used to love when I was a small child. She smiles. "I grabbed this, it used to help you whenever you had nightmares." She said as she handed it to me.

I smile. "Thanks mom."

She leans down and kisses me on the head. Walking out of the room. The bear smelled of lavender and honey. My eyelids begin to get heavy, and I drift of to sleep...
