    Summary

    “You are not replaceable, I am not temporary.” He’s holding her face in his hands, wiping away the tears that try to fall from the corner of her eyes.

    She’s had a shit childhood, one he wishes with every fiber of his being, he could replace for her.

    He can do this, though. Be here for her now.

    “Look at me kiddo, I know you are not Sarah, and I don’t need you to be. I need you to be Ellie; funny, brave, and so goddamn smart, Ellie.” His heart tugs painfully in his chest as her face screws up in an anguished expression.

    “You are enough just as you are, and anybody who tells you different will find themselves laid out for spit’n that kind of bullshit at my kid.” He tucks her into his chest as the first broken sobs burst past her lips.

    She might be eighteen, a legal adult, but she’s still just a kid looking for the comfort of a parent.

    Something she’s never had before. He’ll be that for her, if she’ll let him.

    From now until the earth claims him.

    —
    Another modern/western vibe. After Ellie ages out of foster care in Boston, she greyhounds it out to Wyoming to work at Miller Ranch, where Joel is waiting in that dad shape of his.

    Summary

    For you, an aerospace engineering professor at the university, life consisted of elegant equations and the sterile silence of a laboratory. That was until Joel Miller arrived—shaking the building to its foundations with the roar of a construction site and a cloud of cedar dust under the scorching Austin sun.

    "Come on, Quake, I dare you," Daniel replies and Daisy's had enough.

    "Oh, shut up," is all she says before she grabs a fistful of his shirt and roughly pulls him down to clash their lips.

    Summary

    “Joel,” you said, almost unsure why you were saying his name.

    He looked at you again, like he’d wait all night if you needed him to.

    But instead of saying what you wanted to say—what terrified you to say—you offered a small, broken smile and whispered, “Thank you.”

    And Joel, ever steady, just nodded once. “Anytime.”

    When Joel Miller is hired to renovate your kitchen, it seems like just another project. That is, until the days stretch on, walls come down, and something unexpected begins to take shape. Amid the dust and drywall, you find yourself growing attached to the rugged older contractor, and before long, you’re no longer just picturing a new kitchen, but a life with him in it.

    Summary

    You squeezed your eyes shut, willing yourself not to cry. You were left alone to fend for yourself and a child. You didn’t know how. Fuck, you’d never even had to look after a fish, and now some laughing deity had put a child in your care.

    But you made a promise.

    You’d give your life trying to keep her safe.

    Even if that meant following a stranger, who seemed to hate your existence, to a settlement you had never heard of.

    What else was there left in this world for you?

    ...

    Set 15 years after the outbreak if Joel was never asked to take Ellie to the fireflies. Instead, he continues his quest to find his brother, finding you and little more than he bargained for on his way.
