Notes: So I'm going to give a heads up which means there is spoilery bits...this chapter has some smuttiness between two men. I know that that's not something a certain group of people like so I figured I should let people know ahead of time so if they want to skip over that certain part, they can. Either way. Thanks to anyone who reads this. Also, I think it should be known that I just finished reading through this, so if there is glaring mistakes, I apologize.
Waking up in the morning felt absolutely incredible lately for Y/N. This was everything she had ever dreamt of waking up in Negan's arms and having the warmth of him wrapped around her. For so long she dreamt of having Negan with her at night and it just seemed like it would be a dream that she could never have truly happen. Yet, since Negan had his disagreement with his wife and she denied him of the divorce, he had been spending most of his time with Y/N. Maybe it was because he was no longer scared of getting caught, but either way, she found herself in awe of what was happening.
Curling up closer in Negan's arms, she got comfortable and cherished the warmth of him. It was incredible to be able to be held by him like this. It almost felt like a dream having moments like this with him.
"You're just eating this up, aren't you?" Negan hummed against the back of her neck and she smiled finding his breath tickling at her skin. "You are so fucking cute. I can't tell you how much I love holding you at night."
"How much?" she spoke up wanting to hear him say it and he snorted.
"So fucking much," Negan answered and nuzzled his nose against the back of her neck. "You're adorable and you make it so nice waking up in the morning. I look forward to waking up now and I owe that to you."
"I can't believe you are actually here," she informed him and he slid his hand further out to hook his fingers with hers and she let out a happy sound. "I never want to get out of bed, I just...I like being right here in your arms."
"Oh yeah?" Negan peppered playful kisses over the side of her neck and he could hear her laughing when they tickled over her flesh. Negan laughed against her skin and placed a final kiss over her neck before sighing heavily. "I actually thought you might like to do something special today."
"Yeah?" she closed her eyes and felt Negan squeezing her tighter in his arms. "Like what?"
"Well what was it you asked of me not long ago? To have breakfast and go on a hike with Ghost? After that we'd picnic and then find a spot to watch the sunset, right? Just find a spot to relax together and look up at the stars," Negan recalled what she had told him the morning after her birthday and he heard her let out a shocked breath. It was clear that she couldn't believe that he actually remembered what she had asked of him that day. It proved he had listened to her, even if she felt like he was angry with her and avoiding what she was saying that morning. "How does that sound for you? I mean, I thought today seemed like a good day to do it. The sky is supposed to clear..."
"You really want to do that?" she confirmed, turning in his arms and Negan smiled brightly. His eyes were still tired and she loved the way he looked in the mornings. While Negan was so proud of his presentation and the way he looked, he was always so cute when he was disheveled in the morning. Just looking at him made her swoon and she couldn't contain herself. Negan's nose wrinkled over the fact that she doubted he really wanted to do that with her and he nodded. "You are so fucking cute."
