The walking dead Fanfic: The Estate

Jade opens the door and Lewis turns back turning his head sideways nodding.

"a dress?"

Jade nods her head looking down.

"I may never get to wear one again"

Lewis shrugs his shoulders.

"I don't judge actually its pretty normal you should see the parties we have on Saturday nights!"

Jade eyes Lewis and he grins.

"Surprised? People can have parties during the apocalypse it's one of the benefits of this community jade, of being loyal to Negan.."

She looks down at her dress then back to Lewis.

"who is Negan?"

Lewis stops in the hall turning to jade and shakes his head.

"it's more the idea of Negan, then who is Negan. The idea of normalcy, of society, a strong society, it's like an embodiment, a goal..."

Lewis shakes his head staring at Jade.

"don't worry about it though you don't need to know this stuff just yet. I shouldn't even tell you, your not one of us yet..."

Jade looks at Lewis and shakes her head.

"Honestly, it sounds like a crazy cult..."

Lewis and jade walk up to two large doors and Lewis stares at them then turns to jade.

"give it a chance jade, life can be good for you and your sister. It is better than going back out there. Mason, he will protect you.."

Lewis knocks on the doors and they slide open and him and jade walk in. Lewis stops at attention and turns back to the two men by the doors nodding to them.

"you can go to dinner, ill take over from here..."

They salute and Lewis salutes back. The two men leave and Lewis closes over the sliding doors and motions to a table with five chairs.

"you have been invited to dinner by Mason usually only high ranking members get to sit at this table. Show him respect and he will return it jade"

Lewis pulls out a chair and Jade sits in it. Lewis stands by her side and the doors open again and Konnor enters with Jade's sister. Jade goes to stand but Lewis shakes his head.

"don't, follow the rules and wait..."

Jade looks at Lewis and shakes her head.

"fuck the rules this is my sister.."

She stands walking to her sister and hugs her and her sister steps back. Jade shakes her head and Alyssa nods to her.

"we should follow the rules.."

Jade shakes her head.

"what are you talking about?"

Konnor clears his throat.

"take a seat Jyde, you should too Alyssa, Mason will be here soon."

Jade shakes her head again going to hug her sister, but her sister steps back.

"please Jade just sit down do what they say"

Konnor turns back to Alyssa and then to Jade, but Lewis interrupts.

"she isn't going anywhere jade she will eat with us we just need to get seated before Mason comes in. Please..."

Jade turns back and sits in her chair and Lewis stands next to her. Alyssa gets into a chair across from her and Konnor stands next to her. The doors open again and Mason walks in, he turns back to the two people escorting him and nods.
