Almost a month had gone by since Negan ended Dwight and announced his love for Sky in front of the whole compound. Not too much had changed since then, everything ran smoothly as clock work like usual. It was evident that being with Sky had changed Negan a little.
He was still the strong and ruthless leader that he needed to be, and he didn't take shit from anyone who stepped out of line. But more and more when it was just him and Sky, he would show his softer more caring side.
It was like he had two opposite sides, the man he would show the world, and the man he would show her, and every now and then the two would merge and the world would get to see a small glimpse of the man that Negan truly was.
It soon became clear to Sky that his ex-wives harboured a lot of resentment towards her. Especially Sherry. She couldn't really blame them, until she came along they had everything they needed. They didn't have to work for points like everyone else, the lived lavishly while tending to Negan's sexual needs. And Sky knew just how great the sex was. And now… they were at the bottom again, working hard like everyone else, and they were clearly not happy about it.
She knew that Sherry would hate her, of course she blamed her for Dwight's death, even though the man bought it on himself. She saw the way the woman glared angrily at her in the dining hall, and out in the compound. If looks could kill, Sky would be dead a hundred times over.
She didn't bother to mention it to Negan, she wasn't really ok with keeping it from him, but she didn't want to stress him out when she could handle it herself.
Everyone knew that there were dire consequences if they so much as touched Sky, so she hoped that would be enough to deter the wives from doing anything stupid… but Sherry. Well she didn't have a whole lot left to lose, so she was a bit of a wild card.
Sky still worked in the infirmary, because she loved having a job, having a purpose. Although Negan had refused to let her work for points, so she just worked for the fun of it.
Keira and Sam had been a little dark to her at first, for not telling them about being Negan's secret lover, especially when they were all gossiping about it over the dinner table. But when Chris explained to them how dangerous it was for Sky for anyone to have known, they eventually understood why it had to be a secret.
That morning Sherry came in to the infirmary requesting to be seen. Unfortunately Chris was tied up with another patient otherwise he would have handled it so that Sky didn't have to.
"Alright Sherry, how can I help?" Sky asked as she gestured for her to sit down on the other bed.
"Ummm, is there somewhere more private we could do this?" she asked.
"Sorry, the back room is taken right now".
"Ok… well ummm I think I might be pregnant" Sherry revealed, relishing in the look of shock on Sky's face. "And I'm pretty sure it's Negan's" she added, making sure to twist the knife really good.
"Right... well first off, what makes you think you're pregnant?" trying to remain as professional as possible even though inside she was kind of fuming. Of course this bitch would take any opportunity to try and drive a wedge between her and Negan. If she was pregnant, there was just as much chance if not more, that the baby was actually Dwight's… god help her.
"My period is late" Sherry said.
"By how much?"
"Only a few days"
"Any other symptoms? Nausea, sore breasts?" Sky asked.
"No nothing else yet" she replied, very certain that she was indeed pregnant.
