    Summary

    The entirety of New Year's Day 2029 felt wrong to you as your husband and kid left for patrol. While you traversed your own trail, the feeling never disappeared. Once you spotted Joel on the mountainside, you recognized that he was not alone. He was with his patrol partner, but they had a person with them.

    Your stomach churned.

    You knew something wasn't right. The girl was small, but muscular. And even if she didn't look dangerous, you willed yourself on your horse to him, to be with him, to be with your Joel. And possibly save his life from his impending retribution.

    OR... The AU where Joel survives his attack.
