As The Crow Flies

Chapter 1. 1868

~FLASHBACK~
Today, this day was the day i was born, at 7:28am on 19th July. I took my first breath and opening my Hazelnut brown eyes everything still a slight bit blurry as i opened my eyes more while blinking away the blurred vision into perfect vision. I saw my mother smiling down as me with my father looking down on me too but with a stern look. I grew to hate this look as the years went by. My baby brother John being born, death of my mother then my father becoming an alcoholic. So we ran. Me and John packed what little belongings we had And left me age 10 and John age 5. We left that life behind us...

Walking down the dirt road from our home town in West Virginia often taking a kip in peoples barns secretly. We made our way to a town called Armadillo where i got a job looking after a farmers horses. Mr. Pedra was a nice guy. He taught me to ride a horse, how to wrangle cattle and in turn gave me a horse too. He was a dark lanky stallion that had been born 2 years prior to my arrival. After 5 years had passed of working with Mr. Pedra i decided it was time to leave. I needed a better paying job so John and I packed out belongings and climbed onto 2 horses Mr.Pedra gave us leaving that life behind too.

We found ourselves in Blackwater after a 3 week detour to see scenery and sadly we needed food and money, we saw 2 wealthy looking gentlemen with a boy a little older than me  walking up a street so we tried to pick their pocket, they flew around catching us both and i looked at them wide eyes and burst out crying, the older of the gentlemen trying to console me.
"Why did you try to steal from us? Are you ok?"
The older gentlemen asked. So i enclosed my story to him with a scared feeling in my chest. Thats when i found out they were the beginnings of The Van Der Linde Gang, always waiting for that one big push and i had become part of it...
~FLASHBACK OVER~
Its been 10 years since i joined the Van Der Linde gang. I was officially an adult too i was at a ripe age of 25. My little brother 15. Loads more people have joined the gang, both men and Women. Abigail who took an instant liking to my brother, Tilly, Karen, Mary-Beth, Susan Grimshaw, Lenny, Javier, Charles, Reverend, Pearson, Uncle, Strauss and sadly Micah who always trying to get me to fuck him. I didnt want that... there was someone else i had my eyes on. I heard a knock on the wagon beside my tent and someone enter, "Miss Marston would you like to come huntin' with me?" I smile and blush knowing who it is and i turn round, there stood my crush, Arthur. "Yes of course i will let me just get my weapons and ill meet you at the horses" he nods and walks out and i run around the tent trying to find my satchel with my weapons and journal in it. I found them with my spare tent and walk to my horse.

My horse Rook was pitch black and was now getting on in age so i needed to invest in a new horse. "Arthur can we goto the stables? I need to get another horse since Rook is getting old"
He nods and we start our ride into Blackwater.

We entered the stables and i smile seeing 3 big horses in their stalls a horse catches me eye its an Arabian its rose grey bay coat gleaming in the beam of sunlight entering through a hatch window on the other side of the stables. I pay $1250 for her and tack her up with Rooks tack and leave Rook in the stable for boarding.

"Where should we go to hunt?" I see Arthur thinking for a moment "lets go to near Valentine in New Hanover" i nod and we start cantering to Valentine. After a few hours we arrive and set up our camp for the next few days in a place called Horseshoe Overlook. Its getting dark so i build a first with logs as a bench and i also build our tent. Sitting beside the fire as Arthur comes back with rabbit meat for us to eat for Dinner. After dinner i open my bottle of beer and start drinking Arthur doing the same, before we know it we are both really drunk and leaning on eachother while laughing loudly. We lay on the floor under the stars and look up at the stars.
"Miss Marston you know i really like you, youre an amazing woman and youre a great person."
I blush and look over at him "i like you too Arth-" i get cut off by Arthur pulling me down and pressing his slightly chapped lips against mine. I feel my heart beat faster and i lean in to the kiss. Within minutes in straddling his waist kissing him. "Arthur... i want you" he moans gently and starts unbuttoning the blouse i was wearing, while i unbutton his shirt and pull it off. I then unbutton my jeans and pull them off then unbutton his and pull them off too.

The cold air sprung against my breast making my nipples hard and i blushed slightly rolling onto my back pulling Arthur ontop. "Take me..." i felt myself getting wetter as he bit his lip seductively at me then suddenly leaning down and nipping at my neck with his teeth while rubbing his now erect penis against my slit and pushing the head in slightly before slowly pushing his penis in the whole way making me gasp as a pain spread slowly throughout my body. He slowly starts thrusting in and out of me and the pain eventually disappears and is replaced with pleasure. I pull Arthurs lips down to mine and kiss him wrapping our tongues together while im moaning in his mouth loudly. I pull away gasping and moan "A-Arthur im going to cum" he growls dominantly and holds my hips while thrusting rough and fast making me moan his name louder and louder my pleasure making a knot feeling in my stomach, i orgasm and grip him slightly while he pushes deep into me and groans as i feel a hot liquid enter me and i moan gently. I bite my lips when hes done and look into his eyes " Arthur i really like you..."
"I like you too, be my girlfriend" i nod and kiss him gently. "Let goto sleep Arthur" we climb into the tent and cuddle up together and fall asleep.
