MATURE READ: We loved each other with fragments of ourselves that were dead - Nikita Gill
Love. Such a poignant emotion. Such a terrifying feeling to give into. One that is stored right in the precious cavity of the heart. A sentiment that can turn the toughest of people plush but can forge such an aggressive desire to protect. A dangerous intensity, even more so when you're left to find it in the obsolete remains of what was once planet Earth.
Or
Joel finds himself catching feelings for an existing resident of Jackson. Feelings that he just can't seem to ignore but it's not all plain sailing as they navigate through one another's trauma.
Disclaimer to say that I do not own the last of us or any of the canon characters, these belong to naughty dog.
I will be using references from both the HBO show and the game so I'll let you guys decide who you want to base the canon characters on :)

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

When two men find her while she's escaping her persecutors, more than twenty years later, the life they offer her seems too good to be true.

There will be spoiler from TLOU2, so if you haven't played it, I don't recommend to read this. ¤Trigger warning are reported at the beginning of each chapter, so you can skip them. It includes : past abusive relationship, mention of rape (non-descriptive), rude language, drug allusion, suicide allusion. But stay around, because there is also a lot of fluff and tenderness, and some smut. /!\ Age gap, OC is ~30, because we all have daddy issues for Joel and I don't even care anymore.Complete
