The Last Of Us: Part II ~ Twist Of Fate (sequel to: Always come back for you')

New beginnings

I decided to spread out the last chapter because it was wayyy too long so here's the last chapter with some add ons.
Thanks for reading and don't ask where I got the urge to do this, it just popped out of nowhere to be honest 😅

Afterwards...

Soon the trio met up with Tommy upon getting into the outskirts of California. Joshua explained to Tommy about Lev and he accepted the boy. Mel joined them soon after on the way back to Jackson and soon both Joshua and Ellie had the biggest shock story from Owen.

2 months later...

Sasha was sweeping snow from the steps leading up to the house as Laura was making a snow angel with Lev looking uncomfortable in the snow Laura noticed and giggled softly "you never seen snow before, Lev?" She asked in her happy voice, sitting up as her bright eyes looked at the boy, he pulled his hat down a bit "I haven't...I'm sorry um.." he blushed, "come down here for a bit" Laura smiled and happily grabbed his wrist down to her level and he landed on his knees, he spit out the snow the landed in his mouth from the impact and Laura lifted up some snow into her hand and placed it on Lev's gloves and he looked at it glistening in the fabric for a moment

"wow...snows really pretty..." Lev said as some of the snow blew in the wind, Laura placed her hands on her knees having a sweet smile on her face as she looked at the boy "it's one of my favorite seasons..." she said softly and Lev looked down and sat beside her "is it okay with you if you tell me more..?"

Laura blushed "...uh..um sure well...-"

Sasha looked away from the two kids and sniffed softly as she stopped sweeping and looked up at the chair where her Joel would be sitting and playing his 6 string, a wave of sadness and loneliness came over her as she leaned the broom against the rail of the stairs and moved her arms together

She missed him dearly and longed to see him again...to touch him, talk to him and be with him

So many simple things, were now forever impossible and she hated it with all her being, that she had to go through this kind of turmoil...and torture every moment of every day...

"I miss you so much Joel" Sasha whispered tearfully as she wiped a tear from her eye and moved his blue scarf over her lips and closed her eyes. More tears came down her cheeks as she sobbed softly, Laura and lev were now standing away from the snow angels they had made, Lev's looked a little deformed but it still looked good for a first try. Laura smiled slightly then looked up toward the house seeing her mother slightly hunched over with her shoulders moving, she got up on her feet and walked up to her mother, Lev followed behind the girl

"M-mommy? Are you okay?" She asked softly making Sasha look their way "oh, sweety,...I'm sorry,...I just miss your father so much"

Upon hearing the word father, Laura flinched as if a needle had struck her, she made a teary face and stared down at the snow sadly as tears welled up and spilled down her cheeks, lev looked at her and saw her crying he hesitantly patted her shoulder

"m-me...too—" Laura whimpered

Sasha went to them and kneeled down in front of her daughter, taking her hands, Laura looked at her, still with that teary face and went into her mothers arms, giving her a hug, Sasha hugged her back, closing her eyes and sighing tearfully, Lev looked on at the two, feeling sad for them, he took a few steps away and looked at the house seeing strange spikes on the metal, he looked curious and stepped away to the ones that were bigger, Sasha rubbed her daughter's back

"If I had a second chance, my love I would bring daddy back to us, with no hesitation"

Laura tightened her grip as she cried her eyes out Sasha opened her eyes and pulled away to look at Laura as she looked at her Sasha wiped her tears from her cheeks and the sound of a door opening from their house got both of their attention, Sasha glanced at the door, and Owen poked his head out, Sasha smiled weakly at him and Laura got out of her arms and ran into her uncles, to which he carried her up and looked at his sister with a sad look
