Nyle did exactly what he said he would. He’d explained to Gregory who was half a bottle of alcohol in so he barely heard what he was saying. Almost seemed like he’d forgotten who Jesus was or wasn’t. He could’ve made up a name and made up some odd scenario and Gregory would’ve bought it. He then brought enough food for a night, some weapons and two bottles of water. He barely needed the water, but he figured half a bottle for himself and one and a half for her. He met her as soon as the sun set, after he’d kissed his wife and son good-bye, as well as gave a nod in Sophia’s direction — too cool for his love. “Alright, party’s arrived. I am present.”

at the sound of his voice, maggie opened her eyes and looked over her shoulder. he’d made it, seemingly without trouble. she wondered, briefly, how drunk gregory must’ve been, but then pushed that thought out of her mind. she didn’t give a damn about the man; he could drink himself to death for all she cared. “hey,” she greeted, rising to her feet and pushing her hair behind her ear. “ready to go?” she glanced at the supplies he’d brought. a few guns and a backpack that seemed full enough, likely with food and water. she stepped forward and held her hand out. “let me take somethin’. i’m not goin’ to make you lug all that around while i have nothin’, that’s not fair to you.”

beneath her benevolent grin, ( that of which seemed to be more prominent when around the elder ), is a hidden message, —— evident in cerulean hues casting an AVOIDANT gaze towards the ground. there’s a sense of desperation lingering beneath a fabricated mien, the question in which she has yet to ask dancing on the tip of her tongue. ❝ hey, —— everythin’ okay ? ❞ though eager to make her initial inquiry, enid is far more concerned with the wellbeing of the other.

“mhmm,” maggie replied, seemingly distracted as she stared in the mirror again while preparing to try on the next shirt. “tell me the truth.” she slipped on the shirt then lifted it up to the top of her abdomen, turning to enid. “do you see the bump? is it noticeable?” the last thing she wanted was for negan or any of the assholes working for him to take note of it during a battle, which was sure to happen. things could only be worse from there. “think i need to make a supply run. get new clothes.”

what are your worst fears for those who are younger? like carl, judith and enid?

“i’m worried that they won’t ever get to witness normalcy again. that carl and enid will soon forget what the old world was like. that judith will only grow to know pain and loss and sufferin’, even in a world where everyone tries to make her happy all the time.”

Nyle shrugged, mostly because now he was afraid his son would wind up with a kid who probably didn’t give a shit about his kid. In all of this, his son was what mattered to him. He loved Hilltop, it was a really cool place with awesome people but all he did, it was for his kid. “I’ll let Cat figure it out, honestly. If she’s happy, it’ll be a safe bet. I just don’t want to mess anything up and make her job harder on her, you know?” She was so kind to him, but he knew that he did things that likely irritated her even if she didn’t say it outright all of the time. “Yeah, I like that little dude. His eyes are gigantic, I always feel like you can trust someone with giant eyes. So soulful.” He went off on a slight tangent, but he did nothing to apologize for. “We could…try to find a car like when we get down and away from here?” He stated once he realized that she was pregnant and probably couldn’t carry on that long. That would be one hell of a trip, back and forth but he figured Rick would lend them a ride for the return, at least. “Play it by ear, mostly. But yeah, sure. Tell Cat about your plan and I’ll distract Greg and Kal ‘til I leave. And nah, I can bring supplies. I have a backpack.”

maggie was unable to help the small, amused smile that formed on her full lips. everyone loved jesus, even the people who didn’t outright confess it. she liked how nyle was unafraid to admit it, though. she loved jesus just as much as the next person. “i don’t think we’ll be that lucky. if we see one, we’ll take it, but if not, we’ll walk. i’m pregnant, i’m not breakable,” she joked, quirking an eyebrow. she knew she was more vulnerable, given the issue she’d had early on in the pregnancy, but she knew what her limits were. and if she felt they were close to being crossed, she always told someone. it wasn’t worth risking the life of another family member. especially one she would do anything for at this point. “you sure?” maggie asked. he was probably better off bringing stuff. it made more sense for him to gather supplies, to make it look like he was going on a run or something, than for her to. she nodded. “okay. i’ll see you out there.”

at sundown, maggie made her way out of hilltop when she knew the coast was clear. even still, she ran out to the trees rather than taking her time, just in case someone would happen to look out over the wall right as she was in the open. once she was far enough in the woods to be hidden from hilltop’s sight, but still close enough for nyle to find her, maggie sat down on a tree stump and sipped some water, resting her eyes for a few moments. it would be a long journey, and she had to get prepared for it. but in the end, it was necessary. nothing would hold her back from getting to her family.

“The change of power can be an ugly if not violent scenario. If he is still alive, you may want to brace yourself if he does not take it willingly.” He warned, though he really didn’t know enough backstory to know if she should be worried. Regardless, he could see where some became so intensely drunk with power that it might turn into a poisonous situation. He had seen enough. “I suppose that is a very respectable notion, that you stood up in a very dark and frightening time to help those who looked for their source of light. Us leaders, we often are the very mortal guides to others who cannot see past the present.” He tried to tone his persona down as they sat together, alone. He didn’t wish to frighten the new leader but he did need to show that he was not one to be bossed around & that he’d long since earned his respect. “I have had a meeting with Rick Grimes of Alexandria, yes. Jesus had taken him and his people there after an unfortunate few had passed.” He didn’t know how close she was to them, but he knew that Hilltop had their own line-up. Something he was utterly terrified of for the Kingdom. “I welcome you both to the Kingdom, however I am far older than you and likely him as well, I cannot always make such a longer journey. The Saviors, they are unaware that I know of either of your existences.”

once they had reached the table where she, sasha, and enid usually ate their meals, maggie sat across from the king, careful not to move in such ways to upset her stomach while also still concealing her condition. she nodded slowly as he spoke, eyes narrowing in her focus. she knew that to be true. that was something she’d tried hard to center on since taking her unofficial position. hopefully the people approved of how she’d been so far; it seemed like they did, anyway. she nodded again. “rick and i were part of the same group for a couple years. i trust him more than anyone these days. we’ve been through a lot together,” she explained, implying their close friendship without actually saying it. she and rick would always support each other in any fight; ezekiel was the only one left to officially bring in. “thank you for the invitation. the saviors tend to make visits to alexandria often, so that’s probably not the best place to meet. and if the previous leader saw either of you here, he’d shut down whatever we were plannin’ without hesitation. the kingdom might be the safest place to council,” she agreed, nodding again. luckily the man was easily to get along with. they both wanted the same thing, after all. freedom for their people. getting to the kingdom would be difficult, given her condition, but it was safest. she’d have to take nyle and sasha and maybe a few others with her. “the saviors have weapons. lots of them. they took rick’s. and we don’t exactly have a lot lyin’ around here. i’m hopin’ you have a few kept away somewhere.”

sophia rolled her eyes , out in the open and CLEAR enough for the other to see. “funny. just a minute ago , you told me you weren’t in CHARGE. and last time i checked , you don’t have the right to kick me out. so either you get out of the way or get gregory here. either way , i’m talking to nyle.”

maggie moved her shirt back and quickly placed her hand over her gun, refusing to take her eyes off the girl. she reminded maggie of exactly how she had been during her college years. young, rebellious, self-centered. she only saw now how aggravating it truly was to be on the receiving end. “well i am in charge. gregory’s not doin’ shit. tell me what you need or go away.”

#bcrngirl #after glenn & abraham she doesnt trust any new people anymore tbh

bcrngirl:

sophia spotted the faltering of her smug look , happy to think that it was her NOT SO witty comeback. whatever it was , she was content to see the gates opening up. “that’s between him and i.” the red head didn’t trust these people. nyle did , catalina did. maggie and jesus , those were the two people she’d been told to trust. but she didn’t know them. and she didn’t trust them.

maggie didn’t budge. whoever this girl was, she didn’t like her attitude one bit. her glare become ice cold as she stared her down, crossing her arms more affirmatively over her chest. she was in charge; if this girl wanted in, she had to acknowledge that. “well you can either tell me or turn around and get the hell out because you’re not stayin’ if you’re goin’ to be treatin’ me or anyone else like that,” she snapped.

Ezekiel was surprised to hear that the brunette claimed herself to be the leader. He had no room to argue and quite frankly, he found it refreshing to finally meet another female leader. It had been so long since he had. “A new change? I cannot fathom that Paul would leave that detail from our last conversation together otherwise.” He wasn’t all that shocked, actually, once he thought back to a few other conversations. Gregory seemed like the kind of person that would only hinder, never help. “It is a pleasure to meet your acquaintance, Maggie of Hilltop. I would be much obliged to further discuss my reasoning behind my arrival. I thank you for your welcome.” He then nodded when she indicated where they could talk in a more private setting, then slowly headed off to that direction, slow enough that he would be able to allow her to catch up and move alongside him.

“How do you find you’re taking to your new role as leader, Maggie?”

maggie smiled, though there wasn’t exactly humor behind it. “it’s not exactly public knowledge yet,” she explained, keeping it as vague as possible. but he’d understand. the leader they had wasn’t leading. the people looked to her without calling her the official leader. as far as he knew, gregory thought he was still in charge. she nodded at the man. the way he spoke was a bit strange, but she welcomed the kindness. it was somewhat refreshing after all the shit they’d been through in recent weeks. she readjusted her shirt around her small bump ( something she didn’t want to reveal to the man just yet to retain the level of respect ) and walked with him towards where she had motioned. she smiled, somewhat more genuinely this time, then shrugged. “it wasn’t somethin’ i asked for. but these people needed someone. needed me. i’m okay with being that person.” not a day passed by that she worried about how gregory would handle it, if he would take it out on jesus or enid or sasha or whoever else, but she pushed those thoughts away for the time being. the saviors were the main focus now. “have you spoken to rick yet? we should meet altogether next time, there’s a lot we need to discuss with each other.”

Nyle did not know who she was, he was so new at the time that he really didn’t remember a whole lot. Everything had seemed unfamiliar then. “I don’t know if Cat would be okay with a kid watching a kid.” He then was about to think about how he could ask Sophia to watch his son, but that was just a little bit of an insult to whoever the hell Enid was. “It’s fine. I’ll just…I’ll ask around or something, maybe some other parent.” He really didn’t like the idea of leaving his son with anyone and he was starting to wonder if he should bring his kid with him. It wouldn’t be the first time, but he also didn’t want anything to happen. He wouldn’t be able to live with himself if he was hurt. Sophia it was, then. “Uh, I was just going to say leave when it gets dark, you sneak out and I claim I’m meeting up with Jesus on his supply run. It isn’t like good ol’ Jesus is going to rat me out. Probably. I mean, he wouldn’t, right?” He actually didn’t really understand the nickname, he was starting to prefer Paul to the name. He decided then he’d stop using it. “We gotta hoof it, no way we’re taking a car and no one notices.”

maggie nodded. she trusted enid with her life. she’d seen her handle judith many times; the baby loved her. she was definitely going to be the only one babysitting her child when it was born. but she understood why someone else might be hesitant. she was just a teenager, after all. “my friend, sasha, is around my age. she’s just as good with kids as enid is. i’m sure she would be happy to do it,” she explained with a small smile. it was hard for her to put any genuine happiness behind her smiles much anymore, so she tried to make this one look more supportive than anything. she would help these people as much as she could; that was one promise she’d made when deciding to take the role of leader. “no. he would never. he’s with us.” jesus was probably the biggest advocate on maggie taking over hilltop as leader. and he was one of the nicest people she knew. he may even help them with their travels. she hesitated at the mention of going on foot. she knew it would have to happen, but it still made her wary. she’d already had problems with her pregnancy. would this journey only make things worse? but she swallowed down her concerns and nodded her head. this needed to happen. “okay. i’ll meet up with you after dark out in the woods. at that small clearing just inside the treeline. i’ll bring supplies.”

“Yep. My wife.” Nyle wasn’t certain why he felt the need to add his relationship status. Perhaps so that Maggie wouldn’t think he was interested or to elaborate that he was quite close with the aforementioned woman. “Got a son, too. I might need you to hook me up with a trustworthy babysitter while I’m away with you, ‘cause Cat works with the doctors so she’s usually really busy most days. I usually take Clyde with me on guard duty.” Mostly, he tried to sit and teach him how to speak and simple concepts, but he wasn’t particularly good at it. “I feel like if she just tells Gregory you’re puking, he won’t want to come anywhere near you. That’s just how he is, I think.” He’d talked to the man a few times and man, a few times was enough. Still, he figured if anyone could whip up a smooth lie on the fly, it was probably Catalina. Not that she was inherently a bad or deceitful person, he just knew she was brighter than he was most often. “I mean, as long as I got someone to watch my son, it’s fine. I’d rather it be someone you trust, since you’re a mom and all; you also know everyone waaaay better than I do.” He didn’t mind leaving his wife behind, just like he figured if she was in his shoes, she would willingly do the same.

“you know the teenage girl i came here with? enid?” maggie asked, then added, “there’s a baby back in alexandria. she watched her all the time when the father or brother couldn’t. she’s good with her. i’m sure she’d be happy to watch clyde.” she trusted enid with anything; she knew there would be no problem with this. it was what she was best at. she made a mental note to remind herself to ask enid before listening to nyle again. she nodded slightly, unable to keep her jaw from clenching. she knew that better than anybody. the man was an asshole. everyone knew it; no one said it. except for maggie. hell, she’d punched him in the face before. and it felt damn good. her expression fell slightly as she glanced down. she wasn’t a mother yet. she still had no idea how the hell to do all of it. could she lead this community and raise a newborn on her own at the same time? she chose to ignore his comment about her being a mother and instead nodded. “i’ll ask enid. right now, we need to plan when and how we’re going to get there.” she knew better than to go into the trip blind. the more they planned it out, the quicker they could get there then get back.
