*Readers pov*
I wake up.
A good rest.
Once in a lifetime.
I see myself holding Ellie as she snores lightly. Her cute face is just unbearable.
She's cuddling me. What happened last night? No nightmares.
●
I sit up immediately from the blanket, sweat pouring down my face.
Joel is still asleep.
I look next to me to see Ellie wake up.
Ellie: Y/N?...
She says, sleepy.
You: I woke you up, I didn't mean to.
Ellie: Whats up?
She turns to me and sits up.
You: Nightmare.
She scoots over to me.
Ellie: Get under.
She raises her blanket
You: Ellie-
Ellie: Fine. Move over.
She joins our blankets and from under the blankets, she wraps her arms around me.
Ellie: Tell me what was the nightmare about.
You: I was tortured.
I say plainly.
Ellie: Do you feel better now?
I feel relaxed and tired.
You: Yeah, I can fall asleep again.
I put my arm around her head for her to rest on.
Ellie: Goodnight, Y/N.
You: Goodnight, Ellie.
●
Joel: Good Morning.
You: Hey.
I pull Ellie away as I stand up and put on my bandanna.
I sit opposite Joel. The orange sun is beautiful.
Joel: Sleep well?
He teases.
You: No nightmares.
Joel: Change of pace.
I look up at him, pouring myself some hot water.
You: Joel.
Joel: Yeah?
You: You are the best. I feel like nothing in the world would make me hate you.
Joel: Thanks, kid. You can always rely on me.
You: You didn't betray me. I appreciate that, at this job I would be shot as soon as I turn my back.
Joel: I never betrayed you...
You: I know.
Henry: Of course.
I turn around to the sudden voice.
Henry: It's family and all.
He smiles.
Henry: Goodmorning, kid.
You: Hey.
Henry: How was cuddling with your girlfriend?
I blush under the mask with anger.
You: She's not my girlfrie-
Henry: Oh, really? I guess she was riding on your motorbike quiet-
You: I will kill you.
He stops, putting up his arms in defence.
Henry: My bad, little man.
Joel: The soup looks fantastic.
We look over and he's stirring it. I take a bowl and pour myself some.
The girl starts waking up.
Shes trying to feel my side of the sleeping area.
Ellie:...Cutter...Cutter?...
She looks around and sees us
Henry: Your cuddling boyfriend is over here.
You: Fuck off...
She begins blushing madly.
Ellie: S-Stop, dude.
She stands up.
Ellie: Smells delicious. Where's Sam?
Henry: I let him sleep in, for once.
Ellie: Oh.
Henry: Well if you join us can you wake his ass up?
Ellie: Okay.
She leaves.
Henry: Thank you for protecting my brother in the sewer, Cutter. I don't know how I can live without him.
You: Same with me and these 2. Thanks for protecting Ellie, I think she grew on me a bit.
Henry: Sure did.
We dap eachother up for a truce.
Ellie: SAM!
The door bursts open with Sam trying to rip Ellie to shreds as she holds him back.
He screeches in infected tongue.
Henry: Sam!
Joel: Shit! He's turning!
I stand up but Henry pulls out his gun at Joel thats picked up his gun but dropped it because Henry shot out.
Henry: Thats my fucking brother!
His voice breaks.
Ellie: Sam!
She manages to shout in a high pitch due to the fear. Her struggling voice makes my heart break.
You: Ellie!
I run over, pulling him off Ellie as I hold him still on the floor.
Joel: Screw it.
He runs to fumble around and get his gun but Henry shoots out with the gun pointing towards me. I expected a bullet in me but Sam lays still and dead.
Ellie: Shit...
Joel: Ellie, Ellie, are you alright?
Ellie: Uh-Uh...Oh, my God.
Henry:...Sam? Oh, no...Sam...
His heart is broken.
Joel: Oh, shit...Henry.
He moves closer to Henry.
Henry: Henry...What have you done?
He cries.
Joel: I will get that gun off you, okay?
Henry: Sa- Sa- Sa- Sam...
He points it at Joel who raises his arms.
Henry: It's all your fault.
Joel: This is nobody's fault, Henry.
Henry: This is all your fault!
Joel: Henry...Henry, no...
He points the gun to his head and shoots as he drops down immediately. The shot startled them both.
Ellie: Oh, my God...
