Summary
“I’m not ready,” she cries.
“Welp, I’m sorry to say, but we don’t always get to decide when we’re ready for stuff. Sometimes, life just happens,” he comments, flipping his hand around in a careless gesture.
“Don’t you think I know that? For fuck’s sake, my whole life has been stuff just happening to me. It’s not fair.” She stands up and clenches her fists at her side. Joel puts his mug down and pushes away from the counter.
“Ellie, who told you life was fair?” Joel asks, and Ellie can feel a spark of anger in her gut explode. She shoots forward, flinging herself at Joel. She starts pounding on his chest, and he stands there and takes it.
IE: Dying in your sleep isn't how anyone expects to go, not in this world, least of all Joel... and yet.
