The cool water cascaded down her body, the feeling of been fresh and clean was the best feeling nowadays. She ran her hands over her face, pushing the water back over her head, and letting the droplets run down her wet hair. Grabbing the turquoise body soap, she placed the block under the water, before rubbing the soap, letting the bubbles cover her hand. As more bubbles were created, the soap was getting more slippery, adding to her dropping it on the tiled floor. Sighing to herself, she bent over to pick the block up, before standing up again, feeling two hands touch either side of her hips. Quickly whipping around to who ever thought it was a brilliant idea to touch her, she saw her husband, Negan standing in front of her, naked, grinning that signature grin.
"Jesus Christ, Negan!" she protested at him, pushing her hand on his pirate skull tattoo, she wasn't quite sure what it was. A pirate skull or just a skull just wearing a hat?
"Sorry Angel, did I scare you?" he asked chuckling.
"You think? I thought you was somebody else"
"Who would dare to touch the first wife?" he questioned her, his thick black eyebrow raising from his head.
"Well they managed to do it a few days ago didn't they?" she mumbled. Luckily she got over what happened. Negan made sure she was safe; he made sure she stayed close to him; he didn't let her out of his sight. Sometimes he looked like he felt guilty about the whole thing.
"I'm sorry you went through that, angel" he said looking down at her sadly "I should have bought you with me on the run, then it wouldn't have happened" he told her. He did feel guilty. Negan did have a heart.
"Negan, it was bound to happen one day, they had to find the right opportunity, but in a way, I'm glad it happened, because then nobody would have got the message from us, if they never did it this round, the next time could have been worse, you could have gone somewhere further, meaning you wouldn't have come in when you could" she tried to make the situation a little lighter, if that was possible. "Negan, it's been done, we have dealt with them, everyone knows now what would happen if they tried it again"
"I know...I know" he sighed nodding "Next time I go on a run, you are coming with me, if you choose not to, then I'll double the protection"
"Negan...it's not going to happen again, not after the consequences" she assured him, lifting herself up on her feet, planting a soft kiss on his lips.
"Mhmm, titties are the best, especially then they are all wet" he grinned leaning down and burying his face in-between her breasts. Lexi giggled to herself, arching her back backwards as she laughed.
"Negan, truck has arrived back" A voice broke through the walkie talkie, Negan had placed on the toilet lid of her toilet. Negan was kind enough to provide her with her own ensuite bathroom.
A groan escaped Negan's mouth, vibrating between her breasts. "Damn it, I was enjoying this" he sighed before standing up "Okay, I should go. Hurry up with your shower, you might spot something you like" he winked leaving the cascading water fall, grabbing the towel and quickly drying himself off, getting dressed and then heading out of the room.
Lexi finished in the shower, getting out herself, grabbing the towel Negan used, because he doesn't understand a laundry bin. Throwing it into the laundry bin, she grabbed a fresh towel from the pile and wrapped it around her body, before staring at herself in the mirror.
Suddenly the sound of a gun sending several shots quickly made her alert like a meerkat, standing on her feet, looking for enemies. Quickly grabbing her own walkie talkie by the sink, she pressed the button speaking through.
"What the hell was that?!" she asked with a touch of panic. No one responded before Negan spoke through after what it seemed like forever.
"Nothing to worry about angel...we...have a guest" he spoke. Lexi frowned to herself confused, a guest who shot at her own people. Grabbing her fresh underwear, she slipped them on, along with her fresh clothes for today, leaving her room, and heading outside, seeing...Carl Grimes on the floor, Negan standing over him.
"So this is our guest?" she asked looking at the boy "I thought you had brains, Carl. What did you honestly think was going to happen? There's one of you and how many Saviours?" she asked raised her eyebrow. "Baby are you okay?" she asked Negan, noticing the dead bodies on the floor. Rick is getting quite a large tally of how many of his people have killed saviours, compared to how many of Rick's people were lost from the saviours.
"I'm fine Angel" he said, before putting his hand out to Carl "I will show you around. Come on, kid, I'll show you around" Carl just looked at Negan confused. "You know, you do the same damn stink-eye as your dad, except it's only half as good 'cause well, you know, you're missing an eye" Which earned a slapped arm from Lexi
"Don't be an arse" she scolded him. Shaking his head, he chuckled at the boy with one eye and a Sherriff's hat "Really? You're really not gonna take my hand? 'Cause you're lucky you even still have a hand. Same as your boy Daryl over here, now that I think about it. How's the job going, Daryl? Hot enough for you? Yeah, it'd be tough with one arm" Lexi glanced at Daryl, as he stood behind the walker fence doing his daily rally of being a prisoner.
"Eyes on my angel" Negan warned her, but not being too...scary. Her eyes peeled away from her ex, looking at Negan.
"Trust me, never going back there again" she mumbled, before their eyes looked at the kid on the floor from where Dwight decided to rugby tackle him to the ground.
"Ah, smart kid" Negan chuckled "Now come with me. Dwighty-boy, why don't you grab Daryl, take him to the kitchen, do a little grub prep" he instructed "New plan, boys. Let's burn the dead, unload the truck later. Damn, I am not gonna have time to screw any of my wives today. I mean, maybe one" Negan grinned to himself looking at the kid, his one digit from his hand going up to represent one. Lexi rolled her eyes at him.
"Standing right here" she mumbled shaking her head. It was just one of those things that kept getting poked at. She agreed that Negan would fuck other women, she couldn't stop him, but it was something in the back of her mind.
"Angel, it could be you" he grinned
"You could have had me in the shower, but you've lost the opportunity for today, pick someone else" Lexi was a hot head, they all knew that. One small comment could set her off.
"Trust me baby, you won't say no to me, you've never been able to say no to me" he chuckled before looking at the boy "Come on. You too Angel" he requested as they headed to the door to enter the sanctuary building.
"What are you gonna do to me?" Carl asked as Negan opened the door, Lexi closing it behind her "Number one, do not shatter my image of you. You're a badass. You're not scared of shit. Don't be scared of me. It's a disappointment. Number two you really want me to ruin the surprise? Screw you, kid. Seriously, screw you" They walked down the metal flight of stairs, leading down to the room Lexi liked to call the furnace room. The room where Negan would show the saviours what would happen if you crossed him, where everyone mainly worked, where she made sure to those three men not to fuck with her. Once the workers saw Negan enter the room, they quickly got on their knees to show respect to their King "Check this out" Negan spoke softly, compared to the loud chattering of the working people "The Saviours have gone out into the world and fought the dead and come back with some really good stuff. Some of that stuff can be yours if you work hard and play by the rules. Today, everybody gets fresh vegetables at dinner. No points needed." The workers of the saviours applauded and cheered their leader. "You see that? Respect. Cool, huh? They still on their knees? As you were!" he announced, allowing the workers to stand up. She was their Queen; maybe they would consider bowing to her? "Hey, I wanted to show you a few potentials I've rated B-plus or higher" he grinned as they continued to walk down the stairs, heading to the bar room, or Lexi's least favourite room, where the wives drank, gossiped or read magazines in short showing black dresses.
"Ladies" Some of the wives scattered away from Amber. Who looked shit scared of something, usually when somebody was shit scared they did something. She heard a rumour from Simon, but she didn't know if it was true or not. "Don't mind the kid. I know" Negan grinned at Carl as he looked at the wives, stunned. "Every woman where you're from dresses like they do the books at an auto shop. You're gonna want to look at their titties" Negan grinned, glancing at Lexi, she caught his gaze, before looking at her husband, who happened to be staring at her breasts
"Eyes up here" she warned him, earning a chuckle from Negan, before he turned back to Carl
"It's cool. I won't mind. They won't mind. Knock yourself out" he then turned his attention to Sherry. Her least favourite wife, she didn't know why, but Sherry had an attitude and she wasn't even the first wife or his favourite. Something about her, Lexi didn't like "Can I talk to you for a minute, dear wife? Make yourself comfortable, kid" he instructed the kid, before walking to the bar with Sherry, not trying to over hear their conversation. As he talked with Sherry, Lexi looked at Carl.
"You have some balls, Carl" she told him "People have different ways of running things, but everyone in the Sanctuary is alive because of him. Negan could have killed you, but he chose not to, because he's showing he isn't a monster, he does things for a reason, he sees something in you"
"He nearly made my dad axe off my arm" he commented, both watching Negan move to Amber, as she sat on the leather sofa, Negan sitting opposite on the table.
"Negan wouldn't have done it, he doesn't like killing women and kids, it was just a threat- but it was a threat too extreme"
"He killed my friends" he added
"And how many of our people has your father killed?" she asked "a whole compound of saviours killed in their sleep. You might not want to believe it, but Negan, he's a good man in his own way" she added
"Daryl told me about you once" Carl decided to switch the conversation around. Lexi frowned and glanced at him
"He did? Why?"
"I asked him if he had anyone, said he had his brother, and a girl in his life, the girl ended the engagement, broke his heart"
"Well he was an arsehole, the way he is now, hiding his face with his hair, grumbling when he talked, that's all he did. The spark went" she sighed "I ended it before it got worse, and now I am here, with a man who have given me everything I needed"
"From what I can see, Lexi, he hasn't given you want you really want, otherwise this room wouldn't be filled with half naked women" Damn, she wasn't going to admit, but that hurt. Negan soon stood up from the table chuckling to himself before turning to Sherry
"Did you see that? I wasn't hard on her, even though I am very hard in general. You're an asshole. I know. But the messed-up thing is you like me anyway. You know the truth, just like me" To Lexi's horror, she watched Sherry and Negan move closer together, Sherry looking into Negan's eyes as they gently kissed...more than once. Anger boiled in her body, this is exactly why she didn't like Sherry. Looking down at the floor, she tried to distract herself before she felt a presence beside her, Dwight and Daryl
"Jesus" Lexi mumbled, Negan putting his hand out, to say 'give me a minute'. As he pulled away from his new wife- which Lexi was having a hard time trying not to rip Sherry's hair out? Lexi was jealous, of course she was. She was in love with a man, who treated her like a Queen, but he also treated her like he had mistresses on the side.
Negan chuckled to himself, spotting Daryl holding a tray of grapes, other fruits and a bit of cheese. Little bit of luxury for them, especially on a silver shiny tray. "Carl, will you grab this tray for me?" Carl was about to grab the tray, before Lexi stopped him, she grabbed the tray herself.
"I'll leave you alone with your new favourite wife" she told him, knowing Negan would have to punish her sexually, telling her she was his favourite, as he did most of the time. Turning to Daryl she smirked "How's the throat?" she asked him raising her eyebrow "Probably hasn't improved that ridiculous voice of yours" she smirked turning to Carl "Behave kid" she said walking off towards Negan's room. One, the tray was most likely for Negan. Second, Negan would want a few words with Lexi.
Soon enough the doors opened, Negan and Carl standing in the door way, she heard mumbling when the door was closed, meaning he was having an in-depth conversation with the kid. Negan eyed Lexi as she sat on his bed, the silver full tray on the table.
"You think I was going to eat it all?" she asked leaning back on the bed, using her arms to help her balance, enticing her husband. Turning to Carl, he smiled.
"Speaking of, sit. Let's get started" Negan moved to sit one of the sofa's in the room.
"Started on what?" Carl asked, earning a chuckle from Negan
"I want to get to know you a little better, Carl"
"Why?" Carl asked again
"You ask a lot of questions" Lexi added looking at the kid
"Work it out. You're smart. In fact, I'm gonna tell you just how smart you are, in case you don't already know. See, I'd expect a kid your age to be moping around, not doing a damn thing, except crying about missing the prom. But you, you go on a mission. You find me, you kill two of my men, and you're smart enough to know that I'm not gonna let this slide" Negan chuckled "Ah, I can't I can't do it. It's like talking to a birthday present. You got to take that crap off your face. I want to see what Grandma got me" Lexi frowned what Negan meant before realising Carl had a bandage on his face covering his eye.
"No" Carl told him sternly, gripping his teeth together
"Two men! Two men. Punishment. Do you really want to piss me off?" Negan asked sighing, before he watched Carl starting to remove the bandage, earning a chuckle from Negan "Almost there" he grinned chuckling again "Get that hair out of your face. Let me see" Carl moved his fringe out of his face, revealing the empty scarred eye socket on his face "Christ! That is disgusting; no wonder you cover that up."
"Negan! Jesus, you could be a little more sympathetic you know" Lexi scolded her husband at his attitude from Carl's accident. Standing up from the bed she walked to Negan's personal bar in the corner, pouring Carl a glass of water handing it to him "Just ignore his rude comments, I'm sure my husband wouldn't appreciate it if he was in your situation" she said shaking her head, before sitting down next to Negan "Be nice" Negan chuckled at his wife's protesting, before he continued.
"Have you seen it? I mean, have you looked in the mirror? That is gross as hell. I can see your socket"
"Jesus Christ" Lexi mumbled rubbing her face with her hands
"I want to touch it. Oh, come on. Can I touch it?" Carl shook his head as a 'no'.
"Negan leave him alone, please" she asked looking at Carl "I'm sorry for my husband's rude comments, he doesn't have a filter" Negan sighed in defeat from both Lexi and Carl, sighing in response
"Damn. Holy hell, kid. Look I just It's easy to forget that you're just a kid"
Carl quietly sniffled, Lexi didn't blame him. Leaning over in the sofa, she grabbed some tissues from the bar, handing it to him "Here" she said
"And I didn't mean to hurt your feelings or anything. I-"Negan sighed, feeling a little guilty. Was Negan's attitude towards people changing to make him guiltier, or was it something Lexi did to him? "I was just screwing around. Just forget it"
A knock on the door interrupted the moment.
"Come in" Negan sighed as he called out from being disturbed. Opening the door, Fat Joey, or as Lexi liked to call him, Joey. The large sweaty man with dark hair held Lucille in his hands.
"I'm sorry to interrupt, sir, but, uh you left Lucille out by the truck" he spoke out holding out the baseball bat
"Seriously? I never do that. I guess a kid firing a machine gun is a little bit of a distraction" he said reaching out to grab his bat "All jokes aside, you look rad as hell. I wouldn't cover that shit up. It may not be a hit with the ladies, but I swear to you, no one is gonna screw with you looking like that" he paused at Carl before turning to Joey "Fat Joseph, did you carry her all the way up here for me?"
"Yes, sir" Joey nodded
"Were you gentle? Were you kind? Uh did you treat her like a lady?" Negan was now just plain teasing the poor man
"Mm, yes. Yes, sir" Joey nodded
"Did you pet her little pussy like a lady?" Negan asked lowly, before laughing at Joey's confused face "I'm just screwing around, man. A baseball bat doesn't have a pussy" he grinned before motioning his head towards Lexi "Now she does" he chuckled, before his face got serious "Get the hell out"
Joey nodded heading to the door.
"Before you go Joey" Lexi stood up and grabbed a vine of grapes, walking over to him "here, a reward for returning Lucille" she smiled "enjoy them, only for you" she winked at him. Believe it or not, Fat Joey was like a little brother to Lexi. He was like a kid. He followed the rules, did everything Negan asked, but yet he was an innocent. As fair as she was concerned, he hadn't killed anyone living, just dead. But most of the time he wandered around with some sort of food. Joey was the kind of guys that girls thought he was cute, because they reminded him of a kid.
"Thank you, Lexi" he smiled leaving with the grape vine, he closed the door behind him, Lexi then turned around to see her husband looking at her.
"He did a good dead, Negan. He returned Lucille didn't he? Proves something, someone you can trust" she added "Plus grapes are healthy" she said walking to the bed, sitting down on it, before her husband turned to Carl again.
"Now, you see? That's what I'm talking about. Men breaking each other's balls. This is the shit your dad's supposed to be teaching you" he sighed before continuing to talk "What do you like to do for fun? You like music? I want you to sing me a song.
"What?" Carl asked confused
"Yeah. You mowed down two of my men with a machine gun. I want something in return for that. Sing me a song" Negan requested. Lexi raised her eyebrow at her husband totally confused at him, before lying on his bed.
"I... I... I... can't think of any"
"Bullshit! What'd your mom used to sing you? What'd your dad play in the car? Start singing"
"Okay, okay."
"Okay. Uh you are my sunshine" Carl started singing as Negan got up from the sofa, holding Lucille firmly in his hands.
"Go on"
"My only sunshine, you make me happy, when skies are gray"
Suddenly Negan let out a grunt as he pretended to use Lucille in the air, exactly like the scene when Negan bashed in Carl's friends in front of his eyes.
"Do not let me distract you, young man"
"You'll never know-"Negan grunted again as he pretended to bash somebody's skull in "dear, how much I love you, so please don't take my sunshine away" Carl sung with terror and emotion in his tone.
"That's pretty good. Lucille loves being sung to. It's about the only thing she loves more than bashing in brains. Weird, huh? Did your mother sing that to you? Where is she now?" Carl felt silent, sniffling in response. Lexi looked at Negan giving him a look that gave him the sad answer.
"Damn. Dead, huh? You see it happen?" Negan asked, Carl sniffled again before answering
"I shot her before it could"
"Damn, no wonder you're a little serial killer in the making. That was an example of breaking balls, by the way. Come on, kid. Get up. It should be ready"
"What should be ready?"
"The iron." Negan simply answered. Lexi sat up from the bed, raising her eyebrow at Negan, before standing up from the bed, looking at Carl motioning him to leave the room with them both.
"You're gonna be fine" she told him.
The three of them entered the furnace room, seeing people gathering around on their knees, Mark, Amber's ex and little affair tied to the chair in the middle of the room. Negan turned to Carl.
"Hold that for me" he asked Carl before turning to his people "You know the deal. What's about to happen is gonna be hard to watch. I don't want to do it. I wish I could just ignore the rules and let it slide, but I can't, why?" he asked his people.
"The rules keep us alive" they responded
"That is right. We survive. We provide security to others" Negan glanced at Lexi, those few words meaning the world to her. Lexi winked at her husband before he continued with his speech "We bring civilization back to this world. We are the Saviours. But we can't do that without rules. Rules are what make it all work. I know it's not easy. But there's always work. There is always a cost. Here, if you try to skirt it, if you try to cut that corner" he chuckled "then it is the iron for you, on your feet" Negan then turned to Dwight "D" he simply spoke the initial, as Dwight handed the large glove to Negan, as he put the glove on, Dwight used a large poker to grab the very old traditional iron from the furnace, allowing Negan to use the glove to grab it "Mark I'm sorry. But it is what it is" he said slowly pressing the iron to Mark's face, watching his skin burn against the hot iron. Lexi glanced at Carl as he widened his eye trying to look away.
"I wouldn't do that if I was you" she mumbled crossing her arms, as she watched Amber burst out crying. She shouldn't have taken liberty of Negan. And yet Negan forgave her, she didn't understand that. Was this revenge for Mark or Amber? Either way, it was more steps towards Amber wanting out, meaning Lexi got more of Negan.
As Mark screamed in pain from the iron, Negan chuckled "Ah, that wasn't so bad, now, was it? Jesus. He pissed himself. Clean that up" he instructed Daryl "Doc, I'm all done. Do your thing. Well, the pussy passed out. But it's settled we're square. Everything is cool. Let Mark's face be a daily reminder to him and to everyone else that the rules matter. I hope that we all learned something today, because I don't ever want to have to do that again" he said putting the iron away before heading towards Carl and his first wife, grinning "Some crazy shit, huh? You probably think I'm a lunatic. Come on. Let's go figure out what to do with you"
The three of them headed out of the building, towards the courtyard. Negan opened the door letting the bright sunshine hit their faces. Everyone turned to see who opened the door, before continuing their work.
"Can I wrap up my face now?" Carl asked
"No, you absolutely cannot"
"Why the hell not?!" Carl shouted angrily at Negan. Negan chuckled turning to his wife
"Look at this badass. You can't because I'm not done with you. And I like looking at your disgusting, rad-ass, badass eye, so it's staying out. What? You got something to say?" he asked raising his eyebrow.
"Why haven't you killed me? Or my dad or Daryl?" Carl asked
"Daryl is gonna make a good soldier for me. You see, he thinks he's holding it together but you saw it. Your dad? He's already getting me great stuff. You, on the other hand well, we shall see. It's more productive to break you. More fun, too. You thinking that's stupid? I'm thinking we're different. Mm. You're a smart kid. What do you think I should do? You know I can't let you go. So, do I kill you? Iron your face? Chop off your arm? Tell me. What do you think?" he asked Carl
"I think you should jump out the window to save me the trouble of killing you" Carl told him spitting venom
"Why does everybody want to kill each other?" Lexi asked herself out loud "Why can't we get along?"
"Oh! Now, there is the kid that impressed the hell out of me"
"I think you're not saying what you're gonna do to me because you're not going to do anything. If you knew us, if you knew anything, you would kill us. But you can't" Carl told him angry, he definitely was Rick's son
"Where did this attitude come from?" she asked her husband "it's like he's flipped a switch"
"Hoo. Maybe you're right. Maybe I can't" he chuckled before clasping his hands together "Let's go for a ride, kid"
"Negan where are you going?" she asked him
"Alexandria, gotta return the kid" he said
"I'm coming with you" she told him "And I'm not taking no as an answer, I need to make sure you return the kid alive, you need a possible alibi, plus I'm not staying here after what happened without you, you promised me" she told him crossing her arms, this girl was not budging. "Please...I would be forever grateful" she walked towards her husband, placing her hands on his chest "pretty please baby" she asked pouting, her right hand trailing down his chest, resting her hands on his belt. Negan sighed before nodding
"Fine, you owe me baby girl" he growled sexually
"Of course, hands, mouth, tits, pussy, whatever the king requests" she winked before turning to Carl "let's get you in the van" she told him, guiding Carl to the truck
"So you just offer your body to get what you want?" he asked
"I'm the first wife, the Queen, I get want I want, sometimes it takes a little persuasion, plus after Negan's actions and words today, he'll be begging to have me all night. A win, win. I get what I want, he gets to blow his load" she told him getting into the driver's seat.
"Daryl! You seem worried, so I'm taking the kid home" Negan told him getting into the passenger side, Carl in the middle
"If you do anything to him-"Daryl mumbled
"Dwight! Daryl needs a time-out"
"Put him back in his box for a while" Dwight told him, before Lexi started the engine and drove off out of the sanctuary being followed by several other trucks.
Soon they arrived in Alexandria, and Carl was leading them up to a house, which Negan and Lexi guessed was Rick's house. As the three of them stood on the porch, Carl knocked on the door, revealing a large lady, with dark hair and small glasses.
"- Carl, where's"
"- Enid's fine" Carl assured her
"Great, great, great, great, great, great! Where's Rick?" he asked as he entered the house. Lexi looked around, she had never actually been in the house before, and she didn't want to leave.
"Uh, I - I'm just –"The woman stuttered, seeing the figure of Negan
"Don't care, where's Rick?" he asked
"Um, out scavenging for you"
"Cool. I'll wait"
"Um he went out pretty far. They might not be back today. We're running really low on everything. We're practically starving here. Starving? You? By 'practically', you mean 'not really'."
"Negan don't be an arsehole, do you have to do that?" she asked, before the woman burst out crying. Negan chuckled to himself.
"Really? You people seriously don't have a sense of humour" he sighed again, feeling a pan of guilt hit him "Excuse me. What's your name again?"
"Olivia"
"Right, Olivia. I am sorry for having been so rude to you just now. And it looks like I'm gonna be here for a while, awaiting your fearless leader's return. And if you'd like I think it would be enjoyable to screw your brains out. I mean, if, you know, you're agreeable to it"
Olivia looked suddenly angry and quickly slapped Negan across the face, the sound of the slap echoing the room. Lexi tried to stop herself from laughing, but instead smirked.
"You deserved that" she mumbled
"I am about 50% more into you now. Just saying'" he shrugged before chuckling. Lexi had noticed one of Negan's personality consisted of him chuckling a lot. He was a joker."All right, well, I'm just gonna put my feet up and wait for my stuff to get here. Olivia would you be a lamb and make us a little lemonade? Now, I know I left you all some of that good powdered stuff"
"Well, I'm supposed to be with-"Negan cut the woman off
"Make it. Take your time. Make it good. All right, kid! Take me on the grand tour" Negan grinned turning to Carl.
"I'll stay here, I gotta make sure she's okay, though from that slap, she's better from okay" she smirked, watching her husband walk off with Carl as his tour guide. Lexi looked at Olivia "I seem to do this a lot, but I feel like it's my responsibility for saying it. I'm sorry for what Negan said" she told her "He doesn't know what the limit is" she said "do you want some help?" she asked.
"No it's okay, I'll get someone to get the lemonade" Olivia told her heading out of the door.
Lexi decided to do her own tour, as she entered the living room, it looked like this house hadn't even experienced the shit outside the gate. The door opened, and Olivia returned from outside.
"Are all the houses like this?" she asked
"Yes" Olivia simply answered, walking to the kitchen. Lexi followed, the kitchen was a second home to her, either due to her cooking ability from her Italian side, or because she liked eating and never put on the weight. Olivia grabbed a pan from below the sink and filled it up with water, putting it on the stove. She then opened the cupboard to grab the sugar.
Negan soon returned from downstairs...with a toddler. A child, something she was desperate for.
"Rick seems to be holding something secret...sister?" she asked Carl
"Yes" he said
"What's her name?" she asked
"Judith"
"Pretty name for a pretty girl" she smiled at the girl's curly locks. She then looked at Negan, before turning her attention to Olivia preparing the lemonade. Negan then walked out to the porch out the front with the siblings. Lexi walked with them, but stood by the door, watching Negan talk to Judith, while Carl sat beside them both.
This was the first time Lexi saw Negan with a child. Aside from some parents and pregnant women at the sanctuary, this was the first toddler to be held by Negan. A warm feeling spread through her heart, she wasn't going to deny it, Lexi was falling more and more in love with Negan. Maybe this was her turn to ask Negan to get her pregnant. But she knew he would never do it.
"Oh, this little girl is precious" he grinned before a shocked Alexandria walked beside the house, surprised to see Negan "Hey, neighbour. Why don't you come by later? We might grill out" he chuckled "Oh, I like it here. Mm-hmm. I might just have to stay here. You know, I was thinking about what you said earlier, Carl. Maybe it is stupid keeping you and your dad alive. I mean, why am I trying so hard? Maybe I should just bury you both down in one of those flower beds. Huh?" he asked chuckling "And then I could just settle into the suburbs. What do you think about that?"
