Fics like drifting

When Ellie realizes the hands cupping her face belong to Joel, when she realizes he’s fucking alive and here and holding her, when she picks out baby girl through the rushing in her ears, when Ellie realizes she’s safe, she shuts down. It’s sudden. She’s everywhere, she’s everything, she’s scared and angry and desperate and she just doesn’t want anyone to hurt her anymore—has to keep them all off of her—and then Joel is here, and everything is gone. It’s all blissfully gone.
