Summary
Ellie’s eyes lit up. She tightened her palms around the embroidered patches of Mars, Venus, and Earth on the straps of her backpack and then quickened her pace as fast as her little legs could take her. The image of the house grew closer.
It was an old farmhouse. Vines clung to the faded, wooden siding. A porch wrapped around it, the paint chipped. There was a large willow tree in the front yard. A tire swing hung from an especially large branch. Ellie’s thoughts were immediately consumed with how much she wanted to ride it. The night breeze brushed her bare arms, nudging her along.
TLDR// Toddler Ellie comes across a haunted house while running away. In it, she finds a nice, though grumpy, ghost, Joel. For the first time in twenty years, he feels alive, looking after her when no one else ever has, the entire time terrified he'll lose another little girl.

Summary
Joel’s head darted back, his gaze soaring behind him for Ellie’s little face. She was nowhere to be found. His heart stopped. “She was just right here.” His gaze lowered to his hand, where he’d held her just a moment ago. “Where did she go?” It felt like the breath had been stolen from his lungs. “Ellie!” He stepped forward, his eyes racing over their surroundings. “Ellie!”
She was just gone.
“Ellie!”
TLDR// Ellie is Joel’s daughter. On the night that the outbreak starts, he loses her, until eleven years later, when Marlene asks Tess and him to smuggle a teenage girl outside of the city limits. It only takes so long to realize who this angry little girl is to him.

Summary
Jackson fits Joel like a glove. He joined the construction crew to do whatever contractors do. He makes small talk with the endless stream of strangers that approach them in the canteen when they’re trying to eat in peace. He’s full of amiable smiles and says shit like “after you, ma’am.”
Jackson fits Ellie like a glove too—like one of the hundreds of gloves they encountered on the road that didn’t fit her annoyingly small hands.
She doesn’t fit into normal things.
(Or: Ellie struggles to settle in Jackson, and Joel gets better at the feelings shit)
Series
- Part 3 of Jackson
