It's been 20 years since Joel and Beth lost Sarah and it still hasn't gotten any easier. Now with the world at an end on top of dealing with the loss of their daughter, Joel and Beth's relationship has strained and are now living separate lives. Surviving at any cost is what living in this world has come to. The infected have made everyone still alive extremely cautious, humanity is not what it once was and everywhere you look, there is nothing but darkness. With Joel and Beth separated, is there still a chance that the two can find their way back to each other? Could they both find the light in all this darkness? And finally, can they still be always and forever even when the world comes down?

A second chance/ BOOK2
Joel, Tommy, Ellie, and Dina are forced to chase a past that refuses to die, tracking Abby through lands littered with danger and betrayal. Each step tests their strength, loyalty, and the fragile bonds they've built. Ellie struggles with her own anger, questioning what family really means, while Joel fights to hold onto the life he's clawed back, even as the ghosts of yesterday threaten to pull everything apart. Every choice carries weight. Every secret threatens ruin. And in the shadows, some truths remain hidden... waiting for the right moment to shatter the life they've barely begun to live. 📍 #20stalkersout of 637 stories (9/10/25) 📝 I do not own The Last of Us.

Diane Salvino had never been dealt a winning hand. Life seemed hell-bent on testing her limits-growing up rough in the outskirts of Waco, enduring a childhood best left unspoken, throwing herself into the military, and carving out a place in Black Ops before trading combat boots for scrubs. Survival had always been her specialty. But for the first time, she thought she'd found something worth living for. Joel Miller and his daughter, Sarah. A family. A future. Until it all went up in flames. Two decades later, the world had rotted, and so had the last remnants of her heart. The outbreak stole Sarah on the first night, shattered her marriage the next, and left Diane to forge a new legend in the ashes of a world that once was. To FEDRA, she was the Boogeyman. To the Fireflies, a War Dog. To Joel, a ghost. And to one defiant, sharp-tongued girl named Ellie, she was something else entirely. A reluctant protector, maybe even a second chance. Now, fate had thrown her back into Joel's path, their history tangled in grief and blood, both bound by the impossible task of shepherding the one girl who might just save the world, and a sixteen year old boy with a deadeye shot, the journey ahead is certain. But in a place where survival demands sacrifice, Diane knows better than anyone, hope is the most dangerous weapon of all. #1 in Joel #1 in Miller #1 in The Last of Us #1 in Pedro Pascal #1 in season one #2 in Post-Apocalyptic #3 in Ellie #5 in survival #6 in outbreak #9 in The Last of UsComplete
Reason to live (Ellie x OC/Female reader)
This story is fanfiction to the game The Last Of Us (big surprise). Even if you don't know the game, I'm sure you'll be perfectly fine if you read the last chapter: Names, nicknames and explonation before you start reading. "Join old smuggler on his journey with a little girl, to find a cure for the Cordyceps fungi virus. On their way they meet a lot of interesting people and get to know each other better. Andrea thought she's lost her best friend because of what she did. But as it turns out Ellie is more then alive, she now has a purpose. She has to save humanity itself. Will Andrea be there for her this time? Or will she leave her and run again? Does she even have a reason to stay?" So in order to keep you hanging a little, I'm just going to say that this story is different from the game. But you're gonna find that one out on your own, won't you?Complete![This Isn't The End [Ellie Williams x Fem!Reader]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/255725349-256-k139388.jpg)
This Isn't The End [Ellie Williams x Fem!Reader]
-Set during the time frame of The Last of Us 2 but without any spoilers!- You always thought the day your mom was infected would be the hardest day of your life. Never would you have imagined that you'd end up alone in the world. Wandering, surviving. You never stuck around anywhere long, you never joined any groups, never had a reason too. But here in Jackson, things were different and you might just stick around for some reason, or someone. #1 in Ellie Williams on 3.1.2021 !! Thank you all! Completed: 4.3.21 Words: 34,495Complete
take on me, joel miller
The world ended, but people didn't. Not entirely. Twenty years after the outbreak, survival has become second nature. But when Althea agrees to help smuggle a girl across the country, everything shifts. There's Joel: quiet, brutal, impossible. The gruff, closed-off man with blood on his hands and grief in his bones. There's Ellie: foul-mouthed and sharp-eyed, with too much riding on her small shoulders. And there's Althea, stuck somewhere between running from her past and crashing headfirst into a future she never dared to want. Love isn't safe. Hope isn't smart. But some things are worth the risk. Because in the end, it's not about what you've lost, but what you're willing to fight for, even when the world seems beyond saving.

Our Future Days - Joel Miller x Reader
Moving from Oregon to Texas, You had no idea what to expect. All you knew was that you were going to be getting a position at the local hospital in Austin. What you didn't expect however, was to fall madly in love with your neighbor. Only to be stripped away from him on that dreadful night, September 26th 2013. This series is not a oneshot collection. This series does feature NSFW content. This series is from the POV of a female. Enjoy. I do not own any of the characters in this collection (Aside from original characters) all rights are reserved to Naughty Dog.Complete
