After we got out of the hotel, Ellie kept her head down and didn't talk much.
"Ellie?" I stopped in front of her but she wouldn't look at me.
"Ellie." I put my hands on her cheeks and she looked into my eyes.
"Whats wrong?"
"I just, I don't want to be treated like I can't handle myself."
"Well, I'll get you a gun okay? And, Joel doesn't know you like I do. He doesn't see the strong girl i've always known." I pulled her in for a hug and she hugged me tight. After a minute or so, as I was pulling away I kissed the back of her ear.
Her mood immediately changed after that.

We had been getting chased by that mounted turret, but we got into a ledge on the side of a building, and again, i was holding Ellie's arm.

Joel entered a window but someone started attacking him.
"Joel!" I ran after him, and saw a little kid pointing a gun at Joel.
"Joel, stop!" Ellie got him to stop.
"Easy son."
"Leave him alone!" The kid demanded.
"It's okay, they're not the bad guys. Put the gun down." The man on the ground told the kid
"Man you hit hard."
"Yeah, well i was trying to kill you."
"Yeah well." He got up and walked to the kid.
"I'm Henry, this is Sam, and i caught your name is Joel?"
"Logan"
"Ellie"
We introduced ourselves.
I looked down at my leg and saw that the bullet wound started to bleed again.
"Ah shit." I unwrapped it.
"Holy shit. Logan." Ellie looked worried.
"Is he okay?" Henry asked Joel.
"No. He got shot a few hours ago, guess it started bleeding again."
"Well here, let's go to our hideout, we can help you there."
"Alright let's go."
I started to limp again on the way there, with my arm around Ellie.
"Where you from?" Ellie asked Sam.
"Hartford. What about you?"
"Boston."
"How old are you?" Sam looked at Ellie's lips and I noticed, giving me this slight burning feeling in my face.
"14"
"What about you?" Sam looked at me.
"16"
"Oh, well i'm 14 too."
"You're 14 huh?" Henry chuckled at Sam.
"I'm close."
"Right."
We arrived to a pair of doors.
"Welcome to my office." Henry chuckled as he opened the door.
I limped to the couch.
"Ellie." I put pressure on my leg.
"Yeah?" She looked down at my leg and sat next to me.
"I need you to pull the bullet out."
"Wha- are you sure?"
"Yes just do it."
"Okay." She took deep breaths as I uncovered my wound.
"Just do it quickly."
"Okay. I got this."
"You got this. I believe in you." I looked into her eyes.

She started pulling at the bullet and I held in my screams, and then everything went to black.

"Logan. Logan!" I felt a hand touch my shoulder. It was Ellie.
"Oh shit. How long was I out?" I saw that my leg had a new bandage.
"Like twenty minutes. Here." She handed me some blueberries that Sam had shared with her.
"I'm not hungr-" She stuffed a handful of blueberries in my mouth.
"You always say that, just eat them." I smiled at her.
"Thanks."
"Hey so. What's with the scar?" She looked down at my leg again.
"Well, during that day, after i told you to run i kept running chasing the infected away from you, but i ended up falling off the side of the cliff, that's also where the face scar came from."
"Oh, does it hurt?"
"Not anymore."
There was a bit of silence as talking about that day made us both sad. But then Ellie broke the silence.
"Joel said that the plan is to take the bridge outside and cross it by nightfall."
"Better get some rest then."
Ellie walked away to get more berries as Henry then walked up to me.
"She likes you huh?"
"Who? Ellie? No she doesn't"
"You see the way she looks at you"
"Pft, she doesn't like me."
"Whatever you say." He walked away, as Ellie walked back with more blueberries, eating them.
"You're hungry huh."
"Oh fuck you."
She smiled.
"Come here." I opened my arms.
"But your leg?" I then moved it out of the way, stretching it down the couch.
"There problem solved."
She giggled, laying her body on mine.
"You're so pretty." I whispered in her ear and i could see her face get red.
"Shut up."
"You are."
She stayed silent and pushed herself up, laying her head right under my neck.
I wrapped my arms around her belly.

JOEL'S POV

I saw Logan and Ellie laying together on the couch and I wanted to tell him to stop, which was weird. It was a protective feeling over her. I haven't felt this way for years.
Henry then caught my attention with the plan.

LOGAN'S POV

I felt my heart start racing as Ellie put her hands on mine.

'I wish you knew how i felt Ellie' I thought.

After a few minutes i drifted to sleep
