A few weeks had gone by since Sky's check up with Chris and she was determined not to give up hope of conceiving. She tried not to think about it too much, so she focused on her work as much as she could.
Things between her and Negan were as good as ever, and they definitely hadn't slowed down at all when it came to sex. Every chance they got, they were going at it like a couple of rabbits.
Over the last week Sherry had really upped her game, trying desperately to get under Sky's skin. She knew better than to listen to anything the woman said, but after spending so many months being torn down by the assholes in her last group, her confidence had taken a real hit.
Negan was always building her back up, making sure he told her how beautiful she was and how much she meant to him, but somehow harsh words were always easier to believe. It wasn't that she felt like Negan was lying to her when he said those things, she just found it hard to ignore when people would put her down.
Every day like clockwork Sherry would bail her up outside the infirmary at times she knew Sky would be coming or going, and today was no different. "Hey bitch" Sherry greeted cheerfully as though the two of them were old friends and her words were anything but nasty.
"What the fuck do you want Sherry" Sky groaned as she began unlocking the infirmary for the day.
"I want you to suffer Sky, I want you to suffer like I have" she growled.
"Well too bad for you, because I'm actually quite happy" Sky grinned, rubbing it in the woman's face.
"You know… soon enough Negan will be sick of you and you will be tossed aside like the trash that you are" she spat.
"You know what Sherry, this shit is getting real old. How fucking stupid are you? How long is it gonna take for you to get it through that thick fucking skull of yours that I don't care what you say. Your words mean nothing to me, you can't tear me down. So why don't you take your 'bitch game' somewhere else huh?" Sky said angrily.
"He's really rubbing off on you ya know… all that filthy language. It's so unattractive on a woman" she taunted.
"Like I give a fuck" Sky countered. "I'm not here to be attractive. I already have the only man I want or need".
That statement really seemed to piss Sherry off. Clearly not only was she all torn up about losing Dwight, but she was actually really annoyed about being cast aside by Negan too.
"I'll be the first one to say I told you so when he dumps your worthless ass" Sherry hissed angrily.
"I got news for you Sherry, just because he dumped you, doesn't mean my fate will be the same. He never liked you, he never cared for you. You were nothing but a piece of ass and a way to piss of Dwight" Sky said. She was never really one to get into a bitchy kind of girl fight, but if Sherry was going to keep coming at her, then she wasn't going to hold back. At those words Sherry stormed off in a huff just as Keira and Sam were arriving.
"What's got her panties in a bunch?" Keira laughed.
"Apparently the truth is too much for her to handle" Sky replied.
The rest of the morning went rather quickly, and Sky was pleased that she didn't have to deal with Sherry staring her down in the dining hall at lunch. The woman seemed to be getting more and more angry towards Sky, and she wondered how long it would take before she snapped completely.
She thought about telling Negan what was going on, but she didn't really want to bother him with a little spat that she could handle herself, besides he had left on a run with some of his crew that morning so she wasn't going to see him until later that night anyway.
