Summary
Without him consciously telling them to, his knees bend, and his arms are held open wide. Ellie crashes into his chest with a screech.
“What all d’ya got there, kiddo?” He asks, standing and swinging her as she struggles to grip his sleeve with her empty hand.
“Lotsa flowers. Mama says they’re wild, like me,” she explains excitedly.
“Wildflowers, huh?” Joel asks, setting her down and crouching in front of her as she releases her sweaty grip on the smushed, lifeless stems of her little bouquet, transferring them to his much larger palm.
He looks down at the flowers, colorful and already starting to wilt. Crushed in the hands of a rambunctious little girl before they could die on their own accord in the sun once their time was up. To be picked with love and excitement, he thinks, is a much better fate.
or, some much-needed little ellie fluff featuring wildflowers, great parents, and some mild angsty joel feelings.
