New or Old Love?

Shade and Rivalry

When the gates of Alexandria opened, you half expected to see Moriarty's Gang, but you were more than shocked to find Negan stood with his hands in the pockets of his leather jacket, completely unarmed.
"Mornin'" he greeted cheerily, you furrowed your brows at him and turned to see Rick almost running up to you with an unreadable expression across his lips.
"Negan" you greeted, nodding curtly at him as you weren't about to scream and shout at him in public.
"Rick, hi" Negan smiled when Rick rested his hand on the small of your back, his cerulean eyes were incandescent from how he saw how Negan smirked and winked at you.
"Negan" Rick bowed his head and his eyes immediately watched you with precautionary possessiveness - which you certainly didn't mind, given the words that were exchanged between you and Negan during his last visit to Alexandria.
"What are you doing here?" you asked, crossing your arms over your chest and staring Negan down.
"I'm here once a week, y/n, you forget that?" he asked, you set your jaw and brought your hands to your sides, you were about to clock him in the jaw when Rick gently grabbed your hand and looked at you with pleading teal eyes, shaking his head as subtly as he could, you sighed and crossed your arms back over your chest.
"Sorry, after you cheated on me, it's hard to tell what's bullshit and what's the truth" you shrugged, walking away, when you heard Dwight giggling from behind Negan. You snapped around and almost pushed Negan out of the way when he gently grabbed your wrist and turned you to face him, hickory eyes begging for you to just hear him out for a second.
"Y/n just be civil with me for one fucking minute, would you?" he asked lowly, you saw Rick's eyes fill with hurt from how he noticed how close you and Negan were, you immediately pushed the Saviours' leader away and sighed, closing yourself off to him.
"Fine. Go ahead" you said sternly, Negan sighed and turned to Dwight who gave a small shrug and egged him on with silvery eyes.
"Y/n, I'm sorry I cheated on you, I won't try to justify my fucked up actions, or even try to fucking explain them, because what's the point? You love Rick, that's fine, but can you please be civil with me? Y/n when I said I loved-"
"Bullshit! You never fucking said you loved me, Negan" you hissed, not caring that you cut him off, Negan rolled his eyes and sighed before raising his eyebrows to ask for permission to continue.
"As I was fucking saying, when I said I cared about-"
"Never said that either" you growled, masking your hurt with anger, Negan said again and set his jaw.
"When I said I liked your pussy, I meant it and-"
"You also said you liked her pussy" you ground out, gritting your teeth together and restraining yourself from slapping him in the face.
"You know what y/n? You're being real fucking difficult right now, and I do not like you talking to me like shit. You're lucky you're a woman, because otherwise you'd be fucking dead-"
"Is that meant to scare me, Negan?" you laughed, Negan tilted his head to the side and made a low growling sound before leaning close to you and searching your eyes, his breath fanned across your lips when he opened his mouth to talk.
"Oh how I wish that pretty little mouth of yours was wrapped around my cock instead of disrespecting me" his voice was hoarse and full of lust, which made you roll your eyes and control your urges to jump his bones.
"And how I wish your pretty little mouth was full of bullets instead of telling me utter bullshit on the constant" you sassed back, walking past him and over to Dwight, who was stood with his mouth wide open but still smiling.
"Don't keep your mouth open like that, D, you'll swallow flies, and some of Negan's bullshit" you patted his cheek, which caused him to laugh as he followed you over to the small bench you often sat at.

"She never used to be that sarcastic and sassy" Negan grumbled, sitting on the sofa in the living room, Rick pulled himself out of his mind and cautiously sat with him.
"Oh she's always been that way" Rick mumbled, Negan glared at him and watched as Rick cowered slightly.
"Rick, if you don't fucking tell me, I'll break your fucking dick off so y/n can't suck on it" Negan growled, Rick seethed at the thought and swallowed the lump in his anxious throat before speaking.
"Whenever someone pisses y/n off, she tends to get sarcastic and, in her own words, shady" Rick mumbled, fidgeting with his hands as his cyanic eyes concentrated on his beige carpeted floor.
"Good to know. See, Rick, a little cooperation can go a long fucking way" Negan smirked and leaned back on the sofa, his feet resting on the coffee table triumphantly.

"Oh my god! The way you threw shade at Negan was at Mama Ru level!" Dwight laughed, you chuckled and thought about how proud 'Mama Ru' would be.
"Hey, Negan deserved it! Bitches shouldn't cheat if they can't handle the shade" you laughed, Dwight shook his head and yawned, you noticed the dark circles around his eyes then, and how he seemed to be overworked and exhausted.
"D? You didn't sleep last night, did you?" you asked, caution and protectiveness coursing through your veins, Dwight waved his hand at you as another surge of protective anger coursed through your veins.
"D, answer me" you growled, Dwight noticed your anger and sighed before explaining what Scott did and how he had stayed up all night comforting the younger Saviour.
"He was so heartbroken y/n, it was like watching a child find out Santa isn't real. It was heartbreaking to watch him refuse to eat this morning, to watch him even refuse to talk anymore" Dwight let another yawn escape his mouth, and you noticed the way he seemed to drift out of conscientiousness for a moment before pulling himself back to reality.
"Look, if you want, you can take a nap a mine and Rick's for a bit, get some rest" you offered, Dwight looked at the floor and sighed out before smiling up at you with his light slate eyes and thanked you before the two of you headed back to the house you shared with Rick and Carl.

"Rick, look, I ain't gonna bullshit you any longer. I love y/n. I fucking love her" Negan's oak eyes met Rick's ultramarine ones, Rick said nothing, but simply stared at Negan in both disbelief and anger.
