Joel x female reader

Chapter 9

After killing a lot of people, upgrading your weapons, receiving playful slaps on the ass from Joel, finally giving Ellie a gun, the bridge was coming closer than ever. Managing to dodge the hunters, the three of you managed to lose them finally.

"Think we lost them."

You panted as sweat rolled down your forehead, Joel nodded and began side walking on the ledge of the building and into an apartment. You followed and sat on the bed, finally somewhere to sit and relax. Ellie popped in just as you fell backwards onto the bed, she laughed and patted your stomach making you swat her hand.

"Come on (y/n), we're almost there... I'm hoping."

She says while looking at Joel, he nodded and ran his hand through his messy hair.

"This bed is so comfortable, almost like laying on a cloud."

You sighed while closing your eyes, Joel chuckled.

"Ellie, why don't you go on ahead and--"

"I'll leave you two to your lone time."

She said with a smirk, once she left the room, Joel sat down besides you and took off the backpack. With a roll of his shoulders, he let his body fall down besides yours, guess you were right, the bed is fucking comfortable.

"How's your arm holding up Hon?"

You wiggled over and rested your head on his firm chest, a smile on your face as Joel wrapped his arm around your waist.

"It's fine, doesn't really hurt."

Joel hummed, his thumb rubbed your hip.

"Well, at least let me check it, just to make sure it isn't infected."

You nodded and sat up, rubbing your tired eyes.

"Damn..."

You sighed while taking your jacket off, sighing as a cold breeze covered your hot skin. Joel shifted some so he could look at your arm better, his delicate fingers unwrapped your arm gently.

Joel's eyes widened at the cut, it looked horrible. He went into his bag and pulled out a cloth and some rubbing alcohol, he dabbed some onto the cloth and looked you in the eye.

"This is going to hurt like a bitch."

Taking in a deep breath, you closed your eyes and turned your head.

"You could have lied a little bit."

Joel chuckled and held your arm with one hand and hovered the cloth above the gash, you could just feel the stinging pain without the cloth even touching your arm.

"On three....one.......two......three."

Joel pressed the cloth onto your arm, holy mother of fuck!

"GAH SON OF A BITCH!!!"

You swore as you tried to tug your arm away, hot tears ran down your face as Joel held the cloth on your arm.

"I know baby I know."

Joel took out some tape and taped the cloth around your arm, now is about time that you wish your arm would fall off. You didn't know what hurt more, the car crashing or this! You would have taken getting into a car crash anytime than this, this shit here hurt more than anything! Joel finished wrapping up your arm, he slid a hand up your arm to your face.

"Babe, look at me."

Just as you turned your head, Joel leaned forward and kissed you gently. You kissed back as Joel's thumb rubbed the tears off of your face, he felt bad for causing you pain, but he didn't want the cut to get infected. He pulled away from the kiss and nuzzled your nose, both of you opened your eyes.

"Sorry about the pain darling, I just--"

You kissed him again and pulled away smiling.

"I know, you did what was right."

He smiled back and helped you off of the bed, after going through the house, you got outside and walked along the building again, only to see one of the cars again.

"It's okay, they don't see us."

Joel hopped in an open window, only to get head locked by a guy. You took action and punched the guy very hard upside the head, the guy fumbled and Joel swung him down and began punching him. You looked around to see a boy holding a gun.

"Joel, wait."

Joel kept punching the guy, letting out a sigh you approached Joel and literally tugged him back. He went to punch you until you held his hands behind his back in a lock.

"Easy, look."

Joel looked up to see a boy holding a gun facing them, Ellie was about to strike him until you held her back as well.

"Don't."

The guy got up and dusted himself off, he looked at the three of you.

"Your not one of them, kinda figured that out when I saw her."

He said while pointing at Ellie, she scoffed and put her knife away.  He walked over to his son and grabbed the gun.

"The name is Henry, and this is Sam. Think I caught your name, it's Joel?"

"Ellie."

Ellie said while raising her hand, you chuckled and shook your head while releasing Joel. He stood up and stayed close to you as Henry looked at you.

"And what's your name?"

"Her name is (y/n)."

Joel said while staring at Henry, he nodded. Ellie came up with an idea that we all could form a group to get out alive, that wasn't a bad idea.

"So it's settled,"

You started while rubbing the back of your neck.

"we stay as a group to get back at the ass holes and to get the fuck out of this shit hole."

Ellie nodded as Joel rubbed your back, he could sense that you were tired and ready to collapse. Henry said that he had a hideout where we could go, you were happy because maybe they had a bed! You followed them while rubbing your throbbing arm, Henry looked at you.

"You alright there? Now bitten are ya?"

"No, just a cut. It's treated though so we're good."

You said while stuffing your hands in your pockets, Joel followed very close behind.

"So is Ellie your daughter?"

"No we're just um..."

"I promised someone that I would look after her."

"Alright, I can respect that. Now what about you two?"

Joel placed a hand on your waist and held you close to him.

"She's my wife, have been for a while."

Your face blushed pink, you could sense that Joel was being protective of you. You smiled up at him and wrapped your arm around his waist, Henry hummed and continued downstairs. To the hideout we go!
