rochelle hugging nick or ellis ! ( sorry for sending u my 100th ask btw 😭 )
although they'd only gotten seperated for about an hour, nick was sure as hell glad the others hadn't simply moved on and left him. the conman hated to admit it, but he doubted he would be able to survive very long by himself.
❝ you're not gonna get rid of me that easily. ❞ the gambler pipes up, sauntering over to where he spotted the rest of his teammates with an easy stride and a slight smirk quirking the corners of his lips, assult rifle resting lazily against his shoulder.
rochelle is the first to notice him, and it takes a minute for nick to register what's happening when she does. mostly because it's not something he expects to happen... even though his time with the other survivors had slowly worn down nick's defenses and he'd begun to open up slightly... well, the conman still wouldn't consider them friends. but the arms snaking around his torso hold him tightly and it's warm, comforting, reassuring in a way nick hadn't felt in a long time. there's a moment's hesitation before the conman returns the hug, draping an arm over her shoulder's as he chuckles slightly, raising a brow as he glances down at her.
❝... the hell did I do to derve this, doll? ❞ he teases, chuckling slightly. ❝ anyone'd think you'd like having me around. ❞
