    Summary

    Shoving herself upright, she splashes beige tinted water onto her face from the trickling tap before forcing herself to meet her own eyes in the mirror, the starkly white wash of her skin making her look ill. The drift of her hand drags her shirt back up and her breathing catches, an undignified whine slipping out of her as she stares unblinkingly at that small protrusion, it's existence undeniable now that she knows.

    She's pregnant.

    And she can't tell Joel, he can't know.

    Tess makes the belated realization that she's harboring a tiny fugitive (Ellie) and decides that it's best if Joel doesn't know (Outbreak compliant, takes place within Boston QZ)
