We have a month and a half till we're supposed to pull of the last score. It's still only Orville, Pa and I in on the plan. The three of us still don't really know how we're gonna pull it off. The two wanna build a farm.

I woke up in the morning and saw Pa and Orville sitting by the fire.

"I wasn't expecting y'all up this early" I lit a smoke.

"Well, I guess we need to come up with some sort of plan" Orville looked at me.

I nodded, "Let's go for a walk".

The two got up and followed me. I decided to take them up to the cliff edge, the sun was just about to rise.

"So, what're y'all thinking?" I asked.

"I wanna raise some animals, cattle or something" Pa spoke.

Orville agreed, "We can build a good house for a good buck. I bet we'll have well enough money after".

I smiled.

"How do we wanna go about it then?" Orville looked at Pa.

Pa shrugged.

"I think we should get one of the carriages, pack our bags, and go the opposite way everyone is planning to go. Phil wants to head west, I think up by where we were before I got kidnapped. I liked the open fields, the country".

Pa nodded.

Orville smirked, "I like that idea. A nice big farm an the country with my brother and our adopted daughter".

I laughed a little.

"Amira, maybe today you can pull some people aside and see who wants to come with us?" Pa asked me.

I nodded, "For sure Pa".

"I think once we have a plan for the score, we'll have a better plan for what we wanna do. Maybe let's start by getting some bigger supplies? Keep it quiet" Orville suggested.

Pa nodded, "You and I can get on that today".

"Hey".

We all looked behind us to see Adam with a lit cigarette in his hands.

"Hey, you're up early" I felt a little scared.

Adam smiled, "Well, I have some stuff to do today. Thought I'd get started sooner rather than later".

I felt relived.

"Wanna come with me?".

I nodded, "Sure".

"See you later Amira" Pa spoke.

I followed Adam back towards camp, nobody else was awake yet.

"So, you excited for this next score?" I asked.

Adam nodded, "I hope I'm awake for it".

I didn't say anything.

"Anyway".

"Yeah," I took a second, "What do you have planned for today?".

He shrugged, "Not much. Might go into town and get some stuff done. Sam and Laura are going to apply for the auction today or Sam and I would be going to town together".

I nodded.

"What do you have planned?".

I lit a cigarette, "Nothing I don't think. Might go and talk to Dean for a little bit, get some things off my chest".

Adam smiled, "Make sure you're back by dinner, okay?".

"Why?" I smirked.

"Because, I said" Adam kissed my forehead.
