The Trial Of Undying Love

Bad Ideas and Hatred

Lucille wakes in an unfamiliar bed. Her eyes widen as she looks around, seeing unfamiliar faces. Then they fall on a single face that she recognizes.

"Maggie?"

"Luci." She makes her way towards the bed. "How you feelin'?"

"I'm okay, what the..." her voice trails off as her blues grow cold. "The Saviors. How many people did we lose at Alexandria?"

"There were only 3. There were 5 more injured though."

Lucille attempts to get up out of the bed, although she was in pain, she rises to her feet, only to have a few people swarm her and place her back on the bed.

"I see why there are so many people in this room now." She groans.

"Rick knew you'd do that. He warned us."

She sighs and shakes her head. "That man.."

"He cares." Maggie places her hand on top of Lucille's.

"I know." She moves her hair back out of her face. "Where is he?"

"Last I heard, he went back to Alexandria."

She nods and leans back, looking up at the ceiling. "Fuck.." she mutters. "I gotta do something about this shit."

They could hear several cars pull up outside and suddenly a bunch of Saviors pile out of the cars.

Maggie looks out the window and her eyes widen. "I'll be back." She makes her way down the stair and opens the door, finding herself face to face with the fearless Savior.

"We don't have any supplies for you." She folds her arms across her chest.

"I'm not here for the supplies. I'm here to see Luci."

"You can't see her! You almost killed her."

"Then I guess we will take the supplies darlin'." A smug smirk spreads across his lips.

Maggie sighs and shakes her head. "Fine.."

"But I want to talk to her alone."

She tilts her head to the side. "Absolutely not."

He turns around, looking at the Saviors and giving them a nod.

Maggie's eyes widen and she shakes her head. "Fine."

Negan lifts a finger into the air, telling them to stop before he makes his way inside.

Maggie leads him up the stairs and opens the door. "I'm sorry Luci. He insisted on seeing you, or he was going to take the rest of our supplies."

Lucille sighs and then nods. "Okay."

"Alone?" He glances around the room and they look at Maggie who gives then a single nod before stepping out of the room with the rest of them, closing the door as they exit.

Negan takes her hand in his own. "Lucille.. what happened?"

"Are you fucking kidding me?!" She growls.

"No.."

"Simon. He attacked Alexandria after I got back from the bar!"

His deep brown's full with rage as he looks down into her eyes.

"He fucking shot me! He knew you were gone and he took advantage! He gathered up some Saviors that he knew would go against what you wanted and he attacked us!"

He inhales deeply before leaning down and pressing his forehead against hers. "I'm sorry doll."

Her blues flutter shut and tears stream down her cheeks. "I-its fine." She grimaces in pain.
