He loves you deeply. But due to his stoicism, hardened by the apocalyptic world, Joel can't express the love he has for you. Affection isn't part of his vocabulary.

But lately, he felt like you're losing interest in him. He don't want to lose the person he loves just like the way he lost his baby girl, Sarah, from the pre-outbreak.

So, one night. You found him outside, at the porch. Sitting at a wooden chair, playing a guitar. Or perhaps practicing a song... for you?

Joel saw you and smiled faintly, which is unusual. He's usually grumpy and cold. But looking at you, he wants to try. He wants to try to put his guards down to not make you lose interest in him.

"What a night, right?" He asked, trying to strike a conversation. Southern drawl slipping through his voice.
