The Last of Us (YouTube FanFic)

Happy Birthday

Oiiiii I'm back! Thanks for the lovely (and funny :D) comments again! Leggo!

-----------------------------------------------------------

It took me a minute to realize that the arms around me were not trying to rip me apart but in fact stroking my skin softly.

Joe chuckled, "Don't worry, no zombie, just me."

His right arm was wrapped around my shoulders while his left arm was lying on my waist, his fingers sliding over my stomach. I was lying on my back, he on his side. I looked over to him, to his fucking blue eyes. Those eyes would be my death. Screw all the runners and clickers and whatever there is, I would die because of those blue eyes.

"You're the first guy to see me naked in two years, my friend.", I lifted an eyebrow.

He smiled, "I'm honoured. Although the last half year doesn't count, I guess no one had much sexual interaction during that time."

"Aha, so that's sexual interaction what you're doing?"

He grinned, stopped stroking my stomach and lifted himself up, so that his face was directly over mine, "Hell yeah, it is." and kissed me. Not just any kiss. The kind of kiss you would expect from someone who hadn't seen a naked woman in half a year. I couldn't help but smile when his tongue slowly forced his way between my lips. Jesus, he was getting into it.

A knock on the door, Zoe's voice, "Get up, you two lovebirds."

Joe looked up, "How does she know..."

I laughed, "I bet she knew from the moment you let me into your apartment back then."

He sighed, "Alright let's get moving. Although I would much prefer to stay in here with you for ages..."

I crawled out of the bed and made some noises of dislike, then went searching for my bra.
The room had gone cold after the night so that goosebumps were spreading all over my body. I quickly collected my clothes and put them on.

"I'll just go over to my room and get my shirt.", I heard Joe say from behind.

"Hmm..", I answered without really noticing him, until I suddenly felt a pair of warm lips touch my neck.

I smiled, but didn't turn around so that I just heard the door open and close. This boy. As I had put on all of my clothes, I left the room and was greeted by two very excited corgies in the hallway. DOG. TWO OF THEM. I let out an inhuman sound and bowed down to them. They assembled around my legs and panted happily.

"Hey you two! Who are you two cuties? Come on, let me give you a lil cuddle!"

Dan walked up to us and crouched next to me, "They're adorable, aren't they? That's Willow and that's Holly (guys, I actually looked up the frickin names of the queen's dogs for this frickin fanfic).

I scratched Holly's back, "That's the best thing in three months that I've seen."

Dan grinned, "Hehe, except Joe naked, huh?"

I lifted my brows, "He wasn't naked...at least not entirely."

"Right, sure.", he didn't believe a word I was saying, but I ignored him and got up.

Dan kept cuddling Willow, "There's breakfast in the room we were in yesterday. Get it before Caspar has inhaled everything."

I chuckled and followed his suggestion. I entered the room, were Tanya, Jim, Joe and Caspar were sitting and chatting with the Queen.

As soon as Tanya saw me, she ran up to me, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY SKYE!" She hugged me and after her the others (except the Queen who waited respectfully and then wished me a happy birthday from her couch where she was sitting and Joe who just winked at me and smiled).

I laughed, "Aww thanks guys! Where are the others?"

Jim shrugged, "Alfie and Zoe just weent up to their room. Zoe wasn't feeling well, she said. And Phil went to see the dogs again."

The Queen looked up to me, "Have you met them yet?"

"The dogs? Oh, yeah, they welcomed me very passionatley  in the doorway. They're adorable."

She seemed pleased, "Good, good. I wanted to make sure that they are the first thing you see in the morning."

I looked at Joe who tried not to laugh, "Uhh, yeah, thank you."

The Queen smiled, "Okay, but now eat! I even found some whipped cream and more cherries in a glass, because you liked them so much yesterday."

"Oh, that's so nice of you! Thank you very much!", I sat down and started with a nice bread with cheese. I had seen the cheese supply of this house yesterday while helping carrying everything up, so I was eating without bad consience. There was definitley enough for everyone...for the next three years. Oh wow, there hadn't been such a calming atmoshpere in ages. It was almost without worries at all. But there was this weird feeling that something was coming.

The door opened, Phil, Zoe and Alfie came in. After hugging me and wishing a happy birthday they all sat down.

"Are you feeling better, Zozeebo?", Joe asked as he nibbled on cheese.

Zoe looked at Alfie, then at us, "Not really...There's something we have to tell you."

Uhoh. That didn't sound good.

"Whatever it is, we'll figure something out.", Jim said, as comforting as always.

Zoe sighed, "Let's hope so. At first i wasn't sure but now I definitley am. You know, since I had this skin condition I couldn't take specific medication. Now, part of that was the regular birth control, so I had to take a different one which I can't get now anymore. They only send it individually."

"So what? You'll have to use condoms then, sister, no big deal!", Joe shrugged.

Zoe smiled weakly, "Uhh, yeah we did. It broke."

Silence. Alfie layed an arm around his girlfriend, "We...weren't sure, I mean, I ddin't necessarly mean that she's pregnant, but two days earlier we picked up a test at the drugstore where we picked up Skye's painkillers...It's positive."

Zoe was pregnant. Usually a good thing, but not in a world full of sick creatures trying to eat you. Oh crap.

Zoe suddenly broke down crying, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! I should have been more careful, I'm sorry. Now I'm just gonne be a burden for you guys! I'm so sorry!"

I shook my head, "No! No, it's okay! We'll find a way, we always do! Hey, you will have a baby, that's amazing! A little survivor-child! Don't cry, we'll manage it!", I pulled her in a hug.

Joe bit his lip, "Well, it won't be that easy to be honest."

I gave him a punishing look, that was the last thing his sister needed right now.

The Queen got up slowly and layed a hand on Zoe's shoulder, "Don't worry, you can stay as long as you want. And if that's the last thing I can do for you. But this child will be healthy and happy. Even if the world is collapsing, I will make sure that you will make it."

Zoe looked up and smiled, tears streaming down her face, "You really are a queen."
