The drive has been silence, ever since we left from the Sanctuary and I'm not going to lie it's pretty awkward. I just stared out of the window, watching the scenery go by. Throughout the drive, I had spotted a few lone walkers and some that had joined together and created a horde making them more dangerous, the horde wasn't that big compared to the other I had seen or fought, the biggest was definitely the horde that invaded Alexandria, I'll never understand how we got through that, it still amazes me to this day. I'm happy the horde is nowhere near Alexandria, I don't care if the Sanctuary gets overrun... Well I do because of the fact that Eugene is there, he's the only one I would rescue.

"Here's our first stop!" Negan shouts in delight before the door of the truck slams, telling me that Negan had exited the vehicle. 'This few days are going to kill me!' I thought before following Negan, I grab the bag from the back of the truck, placing the straps on my shoulders before Negan hands me a gun, no I mean pushed it to me.

I glare at the back of his head as I slowly follow him towards the small shop which is surrounded by some old, abandoned houses, newly grown trees, and dead walkers, a load of dead walkers and a few roaming ones.

"It's getting pretty dark," I say as Negan and I start to enter the shop, aiming my machine gun just in case a walker walks around one of the shelves, "You've only just noticed!" Negan cockily replies, I roll my eyes before I place the machine gun onto the floor and started collecting everything I could.

"We need a place to stay tonight, we could stay in one of those houses. Can't be too many walkers in them, we could easily clear them out," I state, putting the final can into the large bag that Negan had brought in with him, the bag is nowhere near full and we have three or four days to fill it up.

"Yeah, yeah let's go. It will be safer if we clear them out now," Negan replies as he walks out of the shop, the machine gun on his back, one hand holding the bag and the other one swinging Lucille, I roll my eyes and followed him out, heading towards the first house in sight, which is across the street from the shop.

We enter the house and by the look of it, someone has already cleared it out but left the dead walkers to rot, even though they were properly rotting anyway, they should have burnt them, would make everything safer, so that's the first thing Negan and I did, burned the corpses, burning them in the back garden, the back garden is pretty safe due to the large fence surrounding the perimeter, we could hear some walker growls from the other side, banging on the fence, hoping to get through.

Negan and I sat quietly on the small porch watching the fire crackle as it burns all the walkers from inside the house. "Tell me about yourself," I hear Negan say, I look over to hm, an eyebrow raised as I carry on looking at him, "What did you do before this?"

I look down to the wooden porch, I may as well tell him... I already told him about my deceased daughter and husband, "Well... before all this happened, I only had a part time job as I had to take care of my daughter, my husband was the one who worked full time, worked in an office. The office, in fact, I met him in, I never really liked that job but... it got me somewhere, got me a roof over my head, found me a husband and I gained a daughter from it but this... caused me to lose it again,"

I look down to the wood cover the porch as tears start to flood my eyes , it hurt every time I talk about them, especially my daughter, I still have a hard time remembering that she's actually gone and I will never see her again, the fact that I won't be able to visit her anymore due to me being taken to the Sanctuary, makes it worse. That is definitely one of the things I miss from Alexandria, being able to speak to my daughter's grave whenever I could, hopefully, Negan will allow me to go with them, the next time they go and collect their half.

"How about you, what did you do?" I ask now staring at the fire which is spitting small burnt flesh as the flames grew bigger. "Before this happened, I actually was a school coach," Wow, I never expected that I don't think I'd ever imagine Negan working in a school.

Negan chuckled, "Never expected that, huh?" I smile at him and shrug my shoulders, "The next part you properly wouldn't expect, I was married... like proper married," Now he's right it did shock me and I showed it too. "What uh, happened to her?" I question, now looking at him.

"She died, was diagnosed with cancer and died just before the dead started rising, her name was Lucille, named the bat after her, not sure why bit I thought it was for the best, just hope she's at peace,"

"I-I'm sorry," I say and stood up and walked to where he's sitting, I smile at him before I tell him, "You obviously know that I've lost loved ones, actually... I lost a load of people, I lost most of my friends from a prison I stayed at once before it was bombed, lost my sister-in-law, lost my husband and my daughter, every day I wish I could take my daughters place but... I can't, I have to deal with it, even though she was young I think she'd want me to survive and get through this and my husband would want the same thing. I'm surviving for them and of course my brother, Carl, and Judith,"

I would never have thought that Negan and I could be the same in a way, not from the kills but with the fact that we've lost a load of people, the people we loved. This made me realise even if your the worst of people, they are still the same as you, we're all the same. If we've killers or victims, we're all the same.
