After Joel found Ellie and finding she was immune to the disease needed to get her to the Salt Lake City to make a vaccine, then they met you a regular boy at a run down gas station you explained to them that your parents dropped you off there and ran off abandoning you there,Obviously Joel didn’t want to leave a child behind so he allowed you to tag along with their adventures and Ellie she took up the big sis role since she was bit older than you. You three had good times together, the three of you came across a town named Jackson and you were very hesitated and had some paranoid issues but Ellie and Joel tried reassuring you it’d be fine through Joel didn’t believe it that much himself either. While you three were walking through the town you saw a boy around your age struggling with his horse and for some reason your legs just took off like you knew the guy, you thought it was strange but after you helped calm down the horse and helped the other boy up from the dirt you couldn’t help think he was pretty cute with the mud all over his face and the other boy caught you lingering at his face bit longer than he expected making you look away. Oh, uh sorry.
