Negan couldn’t quite figure out why he felt so drawn to you out of all of the others Saviors— until he found out you were trans. Nobody knew this about him, but he was the same, and knowing there was another person around who had most likely faced the same feelings and struggles that he had… that gave him a comfort he’d never felt before.

And so, he made sure to subtly give you orders or jobs that meant you would be around him. He enjoyed your company, and soon enough, he’d managed to build a relatively close bond with you; one that he could never have with the others, even his wives.

“You know, I think the goddamn world of you,” Negan admitted one night, his voice low as he gave you a slight side eye, before downing the rest of the whiskey in his glass.
