Joel finds Ellie as she's killing David, Ellie and Joel are overcome with emotions never felt before.
Warning: major lemon.
As I trump my way through the cold and thick snow, that man's words echo in head over and over. "She's alive, she's David's newest pet, she's alive, she's David's newest pet, she's alive, she's David's newest pet, she's alive, she's David's newest pet" I grit my teeth and scream into the white and empty void ahead of me. I can't believe I let this happen, my head spins as I try to make sense of it all. The last thing I can remember before waking up is Ellie's slight weight on mine, trying to tell me something that sounded like muffles. Something about going away? Either way it doesn't matter now after those men told me where she was, I failed at hiding the horrors of the infected from Ellie, and now I've failed to hide the horrors of man. I grip my open wound harder and move quicker, the edges of my sight turn white from the pain, I need to hurry up, I need to save Ellie.
The town bells ring as I take out the random cannibals in my way of Ellie. Every man that I kill makes me angrier and more worried, and every time they bring and this 'David' is a reminder of just how vulnerable tiny 14 year old Ellie is and how much I need to hurry up. When I see smoke and flames I follow them instinctively. In a small building I find Ellie's backpack and my heart sinks a little further, Ellie has nothing to defend herself with, I put the bag on with mine and continue to follow where the fire is coming from.
Through the smoke I make out 2 figures, the larger one hovering over a much smaller form, I was way to far to see or hear anything but I was sure that was Ellie. I rush towards her and the closer I got the more sure I became before I see Ellie swinging a machete at the larger figure. Over and over and over again, screaming in fear, now on top of the same man who was just pinning her down. I grab Ellie from behind hugging her, she's panicking and is fighting wildly to get out of my grasp.
"Ellie, stop" she will be beyond traumatised, he is already dead and I don't want Ellie to have anymore baggage than she already has. She screams for me to let her go and my heart aches that she doesn't know who I am and recognises me as a threat. I gently try to stop her and to get her to look at me "it's okay, it's me, it's me, it's me, look, look" I desperately try to reach her eyes as she only tries to get away. Fully in fight or flight mode. Seeing her like brings tears to my eyes as I gently as possible grab her to look at me.
I see the recognition on her face before she looks back down and chocks out, "He tried to-" before stopping herself.
"Oh baby girl" I pull her close to my chest, telling her it's okay while trying to stop my own shaky body. Her breathing is coming out in quick and shallow pants, I can feel her heart from outside her chest beating wildly, and every inch of her is shaking furiously. "It's okay, it's okay" as I try to comfort her, I try to do the same, knowing full well nothing was okay. Nothing about this was okay. She cries my name and my heart bleeds, how many times she called out for me and I wasn't there. I pull her closer hiding my tears in the crook of Ellie's neck. I hear more of the building breaking, I gather myself and pull away. I grab her face, my little Ellie covered in blood, ash and tears, and we get out of there.
As we leave the burning building I watch as Ellie stops, panting, she turns around and watches the building burn. We stand there for a moment, Ellie watching the fire and me watching Ellie, she has a strange expression, one I've never seen before. She looks sad, relieved, angry and gleeful all at once. She turns to me and cups my face, much like I did to her when she was panicking. Ellie's eyes linger on mine, I feel her try to bring my face down, without knowing what she wants I lean down. That's when Ellie's eyes close and she kisses me, pressing her soft lips to mine tightly and puckering, before pulling back slightly and doing it again…and again….and again, her lips getting wetter each time.
I'm not sure if it's the adrenaline, the fact I almost lost her or pure selfish desire, but I find myself kissing her back. I grip her hips hard as I deepen the kiss by opening my mouth, allowing her small tongue to explore every inch, Ellie taking the bait like perfect prey. In my twisted mind, if Ellie initiates everything, it's okay right? Suddenly my gut wound is non existent as I pick Ellie up and she wraps her legs around my hips, there's nothing in this world now besides Ellie in my arms and her lips on mine. We kiss messily, clumsily as I walk to the closest building, which happens to be the small brick building I found Ellie's backpack in.
As soon as we get there I close the door with Ellie still in my arms and push Ellie's back against the door. Everything's a blur as I feel myself shrug off both bags, my and Ellie's jacket. Yesterday I would've killed myself if I thought I would do anything like this to Ellie. I've never felt like this before, something primal and so intense that I can't stop myself, the world can't stop me. The only person who can stop me now is Ellie.
I feel Ellie's small hands at my belt buckle and I groan into her mouth. Everything is frantic and rushed, I leave Ellie's mouth to smother her pale neck with wet kisses. I support her with one hand as my other goes to the button of her jeans. I don't notice my jeans undone until Ellie's tiny hand grips my cock, I groan into Ellie's collar bone as I drop her to her feet, sliding her jeans down her legs and kissing her bare skin as I go. I should be taking my time, loving every inch of Ellie, on a soft bed where there's no fear of infected or cannibals, she should be with a young man her age, going to school, hanging out with friends, being loved by a family. That's what Ellie deserves, but she will never get that, Ellie was born in a dark place in a dark time. In this world the only place Ellie should be is with me. The only place Ellie is safe is with me.
When Ellie's jeans are off she is left in her few layers of tops and a worn out pair of pink panties that were too big for her small frame. I look up at Ellie from between her legs, we lock eyes and Ellie quickly takes off her panties, kicking them away. The sight of her naked from the waist down standing above me, has to be the most erotic thing I've ever seen. I stand up, grabbing Ellie as she wraps her legs around my waist again and rest her back on the door, we both gasp as my cock rubs on her little pussy. She kisses me roughly, teeth crashing into teeth as I push her further onto the door. As I corrupt her mouth, my fingers move below to corrupt her core.
Just rubbing her pussy makes me dizzy, she is so wet and so warm, but what drives me further are the gasps and whispers Ellie makes into my mouth. I release her mouth to kiss and suck her neck, more than happy when in return Ellie's muffled sounds are now clear. I slip a finger into her tight warmth and Ellie throws her head back, whispering out my name, another finger and Ellie's eyes shut tight and she moans deeply, the noise travels straight to my groin.
Ellie's so tight around my fingers I worry for a moment going any further would be too painful for her, until Ellie grabs my cock again and places the tip at her dripping entrance.
Before I can gather myself, Ellie starts to push her hips against mine. She grips my shoulders tightly, her nails biting into my sink through my shirt, I breathe heavily as I slowly push my way further inside. When I'm almost fully in I pause, noticing Ellie's short and rushed breathing. When she notices I've stopped, Ellie pushes her hips again until I'm fully inside of her. Ellie throws her head back and gently pulls out a couple of inches before slowly working my cock back inside of her.
I support her in my arms, gripping her tiny ass as she works her way up and down my penis. The feeling is intense, and as Ellie starts to speed up she starts to get more excited. I struggled not to cum as Ellie moaned and squeaked my name, all the while bouncing on my cock in my arms. To distract myself I lift up her shirts to her chin, (and her thin sports bra), I leaned down to take her tiny nipple in my mouth while still supporting her with my other hand.
Ellie screams out my name and digs her nails deeper into my back, bucking her hips wildly, "Ellie", I growl around her tit. I start thrusting back into Ellie, her moans and squeals getting louder. Our hips slap together as I leave large purple marks all over Ellie's chest and neck, she's so close to cumming, I can feel her pussy getting so tight it's strangling my cock. I move my hand from her tit to rub her swollen clit, she cries out as I rub in small circles.
I grunt deeply in her ear, "Baby girl, atta girl, you're so perfect baby", Ellie screams out my name, arching her back and tightening around my cock. I cum as she shudders in my arms, telling her how much I love her against her neck…over and over and over. When I pull away I notice I'm crying, I look at Ellie and she's crying to. As I go to pull away, horrified I've done this, Ellie quickly pulls me back to her neck once more.
We stay like that for a long time, both silently crying together. The wolf and the lamb, crying from different traumas but the same event.
When we pull away Ellie smiles, her face still covered in blood and ash, her emerald eyes shining with tears. I dress her and she runs her fingers through my hair. When I'm done I rise to meet Ellie's eyes once more, she kisses me softly, her lips quivering. "I love you Joel, please never leave me".
I grab the sides of Ellie's head gently, tears brim my eyes again but this time in relief. She loves me, she doesn't hate me, and whatever she wants me to be to her I will gladly fill that roll. I don't deserve her to forgive me or love me, but I thank god she does. If I were to loose Ellie, I would loose everything.
"Until the day I die, I will always be there for you, always"
