Summary
“Hey.”
The girl’s eyes snapped up, panicked. She spared a second to glance down at the man in front of her, her eyes racing up and then looked at Joel with the exact same type of terror, before emerging with something in her hands.
Joel watched, immediately suspecting a gun. “Whoa, now-”
The girl lifted her hands up, revealing an old knife. She smeared the tears on her cheeks away, trying to seem bigger than she was, but it didn’t work.
She was a terrified kid.
The urgency in Joel’s expression blinked. “Hey,” He repeated, his voice painted soft, though he didn’t let himself hear it. The girl just stared up at him with her knife, not realizing the tremble of her own grip or the violent shakes that tore through her entire, bare body. He just realized that now. Only her knees were covering her, along with the clearly torn pair of underclothes on her lower half. She cringed under his eyes. “It’s okay,” He tried. “I’m not gon’ hurt you.”
The girl didn’t even blink. She just stared up through her tears, terrified of him.
Fuck.
TLDR: Joel finds a traumatized Ellie on the side of the road. He's immediately soft. Meanwhile, she has to learn how to trust him.

Summary
“This is private property.”
Her head snaps up, eyes narrowed as her lips curl into a snarl. “No shit? I thought this was a public fucking park.”
Joel levels a glare at the kid as he loads the washer. “It ain’t. These machines are for residents, not runaways.”
“I’m not a fucking runaway,” she snaps, squaring her shoulders and drawing her backpack closer. “And I am a resident. Kid of the week for the Jenkins. You know, the people who live in 3E?”
“And the Jenkins have you down here doin’ laundry after school every day?” he asks with incredulity.
She glances around the room, a uniquely teenage disdain in her sneer as she surveys the silent machines. “Obviously.”

Summary
He knew what it meant, even if he didn’t want to admit it. Anna was slipping. Again. And Ellie was bearing the brunt of it.
Joel watched her go, his chest tight. As she rounded the corner, he made a silent promise to himself: if Anna didn’t pull it together soon, he’d step in. Scared or not. Because Ellie deserved better, and Joel couldn’t keep pretending he didn’t care.
OR: Modern setting, abusive Anna, eight-year-old Ellie, and neighbor Joel, who will do anything for Ellie. Even if he doesn't want to admit it.

Summary
Unbeknownst to Joel, he was being watched. Observing quietly from the rear end of his truck, there was a little girl, dressed in tattered clothes and barely any taller than one of the wheels that she was standing beside. “Hey!” She hollered, smiling when she watched Joel practically jump out of his skin at the sound of her voice.
Joel’s eyes darted over, quickly worming through the shadows and picking out the kid, despite how small she was. “Christ, girl,” He admonished, his heart still racing inside of his chest. “How are you so goddamn quiet?”
The girl grinned from ear to ear and then dared a step closer. “It’s a talent."
“You’re lucky it’s only me that you snuck up on,” Joel lectured.
“Yeah, ‘cause you seem so pleasant,” The girl teased. She was closer now, like one of those cats who snuck closer every time they weren’t being watched.
Joel snorted in response. “What the hell are you even doin’ out here anyway? This is the middle of nowhere.”
The girl flashed another smile. “I’m on an adventure,” She replied, grinning up at him with a missing tooth.
Joel snorted again. “What, to become roadkill?”
TLDR// Trucker AU! Ellie's a stowaway, and Joel's a lone wolf.
