Request by @kaymudd on Tumblr. Beth sets up a date for her dad with her friend whose younger than him. The pair are both nervous but realize they have a lot in common. (set after season 4 episode 4.)

Beth called me last night determined to have us hang out at her family's ranch tonight. Driving under the Yellowstone sign in my truck parking away from the porch. Beth comes over hugging me gently. "Glad you're here." I hug her back happily. "We need to hang out more often." She pulls away dragging me to the V barn for me to see two horses saddled. "Oh don't worry we will. You still remember how to ride?" Nodding I climbed on the horse questioning her when she climbed on the other horse. "I thought you'd never get back on a horse." Since her mother died she'd never get back on one until now. She simply had us ride out to the fields by the river. I parted my lips at what is in front of me. A picnic blanket covered with sandwiches and desserts is layed out before me. With a lit lantern in the middle. "Beth I'm confused-" I'm cut off hearing another horse riding up behind us.

Whipping my head around I see none other than her father, John Dutton. He dismounted his horse confused as me wearing a blue button up shirt, dark blue jeans muddy boots and a black cowboy hat. "Sweetheart what's going on here. I thought you wanted to see me to discuss our land?" Beth rides over on her horse smiling down at her father. "Daddy I said you need romance in your life. So I set this up. You and Y/n are perfect for each other. You both need someone and I thought this would be a perfect match, enjoy your date." She rides off before either of us can respond. A blush rises to my cheeks once I dismount my horse head buzzing with her words. Perfect for each other. Romance in your life. This is a date.

I've had a massive crush on her father for awhile. Granted I know he's a few years older than I am, I can't deny it. He clears his throat stepping towards me and I feel shorter then I already am. Being 5 1/2 he's taller than me. "Well we might enjoy this little spread considering we both know Beth will be pissed if we don't." He lightly chuckled groaning once bending down to have a seat. I drop down on my knees feeling the wind blowing my hair softly. "That's very true mr. Dutton-" He sticks his right hand out introducing himself. "Since this is a date call me John." Shacking his hand I lightly smile. "Hi John, I'm Y/n."

"This place is beautiful. Much more beautiful than a city building any day." I breathe out staring across the water at the different fall colored the horses munching on grass behind us. John picked up a strawberry watching me eating some too a bright smile on my face. "Here I was thinkin' everyone outside this ranch wants a damn casino." Looking at him I feel a little blush on my cheeks that he likes my comment. "I'm not like those business people John. Places like this should stay as they are, so you change enjoy the land." I direct my freehand.

John felt his heart warm as the words left your lips. He thought he'd never find another love after losing Evelyn. The love of his life. The woman who made him a better father to his children. But he felt himself blush when you'd laugh at his jokes or smile that smile of yours at him. Adding it together he'd see you blushing every few minutes back at him. Last night he thought his daughter was just slightly drunk and saying crazy things but now he was damn sure she was right. He needed love. He needed a new partner and he'd found it in you.

The sun was setting behind John and I as we put the horses up for the night. I started going to my truck but he called out to me from the porch, a nervous smile on his face. "Would you wanna come in for some hot chocolate?" I brush a strand of my hair behind my ear I nod yes. Sitting on his main couch in the living room I snuggled feeling the warmth of the fireplace going. He slowly entered the livingroom carrying two cups of hot chocolate, taking a seat beside me. I blow on the drink so I don't burn my tongue for one second forgetting I'm on a date with the famous John Dutton.

"This ranch is a getaway for me or at least it feels that way." I said drinking some of the drink moaning at the delicious taste and warmth. John slowly sat down his drink removing his black cowboy hat. "What if it was a permanent getaway Y/n?" I slightly choke on my drink sitting it on the coffee table I gasped staring into his eyes. "What - what do you mean John?" Once I'm sitting upright he scoots closer to me and I feel heat but no longer from the burning fire. His right hand takes mine in his gently squeezing it. Beth what have you gotten me into.

His left hand raised to rest on my cheek. His eyes locked onto mine deeply. "Y/n, I know it may seem crazy but I think my daughter was right. That you and I are meant for one another." I blushed stuttering out in disbelief. "John don't you think I'm too young?" He shakes his head chuckling softly. "If I was worried about what everyone thought I'd never do anything darlin'." His gaze shifted from my eyes to my lips then back up. "Can I kiss you, honey?"

"Yeah.." I stutter out feeling my heartbeat faster in my chest. He slowly leans forward placing his lips onto mine. I slowly kiss back loving the feeling of his lips on mine. Wrapping my arms around his neck deepening the kiss I felt his arms pull me onto his lap. We break apart needing air but we're both grinning lovingly. Unknown to the two of us Beth was standing in the doorway smiling. "What's got you smiling honey?" Rip's voice questions behind her confused. "Just my plan working perfectly, baby." She replied seeing John and I snuggled up on the couch.
