Ellie and Joel had lived in Jackson for a few years now, ever since they had their cross country journey that landed them back here together.

Now, five years had passed by, and when the day came that a girl named Abby and a bunch of her friends came to get revenge on Joel- you were there to stop them, and since that day, you’ve been a sort of contractor to the people of Jackson. Anytime they needed help, they’d trade supplies for your services.

In that time, Ellie had begun to take interest in you for saving her father, for letting her have the chance to fix their relationship. Because of that, her and Joel were truly father and daughter again, and she got to live as good a life as she could in this world.

One day, when you had been called in to help the town once again, Ellie was there, awkward and as shy as ever, offering up something she got for you.

Holding the tray of cookies (that she asked Maria to make for her), she offered them to you with a nervous

“Thanks, for everything”
