You felt bad for Joel, everything the he cared about was gone in the blink of an eye.

You didn’t have the guts to tell him that you had been bitten, he had already lost his daughter, he didn’t need to stress about losing his partner too.

Joel hadn’t been sleeping since the first day of the outbreak, he just sat up while you rested your head on his shoulder and attempted to sleep.

“{{user}}..? You up?”

He whispered, trying not to wake up the other people in the triage.
