Jack
We had been ridin' for a few hours now. It almost felt like the sun was hotter than usual. Maybe that be because I have a damned woman stuck against my front. My shirt felt soaked but for some reason Audrey didn't seem to bother it none. She also, for the first time hadn't said a damn word in a while. Was quite enjoyin' the silence, let me tell you that much. But it was off.. So I looked down, bending my neck a lil bit to see under her hat. But when i saw what i saw i felt a little bit annoyed. The damn woman had fallen asleep!
I was gonn' wake her by giving her a push, but decided against it. She seemed to be peaceful enough for now. I didn't have to pay much to none attention to the road right now, since it was just sand and dirt anyway, so my eyes lingered on her face a little longer. She truly was a pretty thing. Sweet 'n innocent when she wasn't opening that mouth of hers. I looked at her cheek, which had a light bruise on it. Jebediah really got her hard when he struck her.I shook my head and looked up for a lil bit before stopping Banshee. Now I did have to wake the girl because I needed a piss.. I let go of the reins before grabbing her by her waist, pushing her forward a little. For cryin' out loud my chest was really soaked and it didn't just feel that way. I heard Audrey groan softly and I shook her a little. "Doll. Wake up." I grumbled into her ear, needing her to wake up. I could just leave her cheeks to sit on Banshee but she'd probably fall off. It's a means of waking up, yes, but not a fun one.
"Five more minutes.." She muttered back to me and I just felt some more annoyance bubble in my chest. I was not gonn' wait for her so I did the next reasonable thing to do. I scared her. I wrapped my arms around her waist tightly, which made a smile form on her face. Sorry girly..I took in a deep breath and yelled loudly, close to her ear. "RAH!" Her eyes shot open and she screamed in terror when she heard it, jolting in place since I was keeping her there and she panted like she just ran across the desert and back. "For fucks sake Jack! What the fuck is wrong with you?!" She yelled right back at me, turning a little to face me with a hateful look on those pretty features.
"You didn't want to wake up, and I have to piss. Coulda left you, let you fall off the horse if you wanted." I rolled my eyes when I said that, shaking my head at her. She just huffed softly and turned to look back in front of us again. I let go of her waist before i climbed off Banshee's back, leavin' her on the horse. I walked over to a nearby cactus. Y'know one of those big fella's. I stepped behind one, makin' sure i was far away enough from it so i wouldn't get bloody stabbed by it.I took my sweet time with that piss, because my ass felt numb from riding that saddle on it's edge. When I was done though, I stuffed everything back into my trousers and wiped my hands on them, while walking back to Banshee and my new personal headache. I looked up, squinting my eyes and I saw Audrey looking at me with a grossed out look on her face. So I cocked a brow at her, moving my hands to get back on the horse but she moved away. Horse and all. "Girl what are you doin'" I asked her, getting slightly annoyed again. "Wash your damn hands, or you're not touching me.." I heard her hiss through her teeth and I looked down at my hands. "They are clean, don't be weird." I said while rolling my eyes at her.
She held one of our water bottles up, moving away with Banshee again when I tried to grab the saddle once more. "They're not, your dick was in there." I heard her say. Her voice was filled with disgust. "I haven't shaken the hand of a man named Richard." I said, cocking a brow at her once more. She stared at me in disbelief and I just shrugged. "Oh my God, Jack. Your dick? Penis?" She said, while waving her hand, gesturing at my trousers. I stared at her for a moment before it clicked. Then i grinned. How about I give her a cookie of her own dough. "You had no problems touching it yesterday. More than once." I said with a wide grin on my face and she just rolled her eyes. "That was in a bath and there was no pee involved. Wash your damn hands!"
