The day of the party Arrived faster the Negan could expect and he was far from finished all the preparations. Panicking a bit Negan frantically got to work on making up all the food snacks and setting up the music for the party while also putting together the party favours and secret santa gifts that he got from the guests a week prior all set up under the tree. Once he finally felt confident that the party was looking pretty good his guests began to arrive accordingly. Wesker and Abaddon arrived first knocking at the door and greeting the older keb with open arms and happy vibes. Abaddons friend Pagan was also there with him shooting the shit with the older keb and asking many many questions about his previous life as a leader of a organization. Negan was happy to answer the questions as they all accumulated around the food table and the drinks. Starting the party off strong with some games like truth or dare and getting out the cards against humanity pack knowing that the next wave of guests will be arriving.

After a few hours Negan heard another knock at the door and prompted to head over to the door as he opened it he was greeted with his long time friends Carl and Rick. Carl tackle hugged Negan with lots of laughs erupting from the older keb as the younger one was spun around and all happy to be together for Christmas. Negan offered them some drinks and allowed them inside as everyone yelled in happiness and greeting to the other two who decided to come by. Rick was happy to spend Christmas with his family and friends and knew that he had to put his differences aside from Negan to really enjoy this day. Negan too was also hesitant on pestering Rick knowing Carl just wanted a relaxed time together with the older keb and his friends. Negan didnt tell the others that he did invite another Keb a new one to the party who he knew was gonna be alone on Christmas and his rule of thumb is not to allow anyone to be alone on Christmas. This Keb was quite scary in looks... and many tended to judge him on his appearance along with the fact his social skills were not the greatest. However Negan wanted to give him a chance and offer open arms to a new life with a great group of friends. As they waited for the final guest to arrive Negan offered for them to watch some Holiday movies and make up some more Eggnog for the group knowing that if they will make it through this social gathering they will need a bit more spicy drinks.

Once he made up some drinks Carl rushed to put in one of his favourite Christmas movies to bombard his friends and his dad with some carolling and some funny antics. A final Knock came to the door prompting Abaddon to go get it and as he opened the door he saw their new guest. Bones Von Brunt.. a Headless Keb with a rather scary complexion grinned at the young keb who stared wide eyed and slightly frightened. Negan came over to the door greeting his new friend and offering him a drink while he let him inside Abaddon was fast to ask about the headless thing which Bones smiled and told him about the enchantment curse upon his body from a young age. He lost his head in battle which then made everyone in the room begin to ask questions in a polite manner to the older keb in regards to his past. Bones was pretty happy to be the centre of attention due to his ego however he was also thrilled to see others more interested in his life then his appearance. This prompted him to sit with the younger kebs and answer all their wonderful questions while they all sat around watching Christmas Chronicles on the TV by the fire. Bones felt at ease seeing some of their faces smile and light up as he told some of his war stories and even spoke about past Christmases that lead to some cold nights but ended in miracles of light and warm. After some time Abaddon snuggled up with the headless Keb as the next movie played on the tv and everyone was enjoying some snacks and drinks. Bones felt warm as he held the keb it was odd to him since he wasnt one for snuggling or curling up under blankets but something about this younger keb made him feel at ease. He felt like he had to protect the youngster noticing the words on his neck making him sad a little knowing that his keb like him went through something. He wanted to pry but knew this was not the good time to do it. Smiling fondly he snuggled with him and Carl as they all began to laugh at the stupid little jokes in the film they were watching. Negan felt happy to be with his friends and family and also to see them accept his new friend with open arms as he did. This kind nature and humble manners really bring out the magic of the holidays when someone is in need of some love.
