Request from @thefandomdiaries07 John Dutton x reader from Yellowstone. I was thinking maybe something along the lines of a much younger reader (like mid 20s even) who lives/grew up in Napa Valley and is a struggling author, so they take a trip to Montana and meet John?

Parking my truck next to this barn, I sighed, closing my notebook and putting it in my bag, heading towards the building. Peaking my head inside the door, I think I got the right address my friend Monica sent me since I told her I needed a place to stay for a few weeks to get inspiration for the book I'm working on. There's a horse saddled in the barn, so I slowly walked up climbing on, which causes the horse to suddenly bolt out of the barn and towards the field. Gripping the reins, I screamed, struggling to stay on as he races, finally throwing me off his back. Rolling on the ground, I groaned, holding my ankle of my right leg. "Well, that couldn't have gone any better." I mumbled to myself before someone raced past me, riding their horse a lot easier than I did moments ago.

The rider chased after the horse, throwing their rope over its neck, allowing them to gently grab the reins and lead the other horse back in my direction. Tucking hair behind my ear, I blushed, seeing it was an older looking cowboy than I expected. But he was still attractive. He dismounted his horse, tipping his black hat down at me. "Never in my life did I think someone would just saddle my horse and think they can ride him like I can. Care to explain why you did that, darling?" Running my fingers through my hair, I sighed heavily, feeling really embarrassed now. "Sir, I'm sorry. Look, I thought that my friend Monica saddled him for me. Since she knew I was coming here for a few weeks to hopefully get ideas for my next book. But again, I'm so sorry, Mr Um.."

"John Dutton, ma'am. Let's get you back to the house. It was a simple mistake so I ain't mad at you." He extended his right hand to me, so I put my hand in his, but when he tugs me to stand my right ankle gives out and I stumbled into his chest. He wrapped his arms around my waist, helping me to stand, noticing my ankle was injured. "Woah, I've got you. Looks like you twisted an ankle when you fell. Come on, ride on my horse with me." He helped me back onto the horse he was riding, and we made it back to the house where he put the horses up in the barn. John came back handing me an ice pack that I put on my ankle moving over so he could sit on the swing beside me. "I'm Y/n, by the way... thanks for the save...this place is beautiful. It's almost like the scenery I am writing in my book."

John removed his hat, sitting it on his lap, staring at me where I turned my head, looking into his eyes softly. My heart skipped a beat feeling comfortable around him even though we hadn't even known each other for a day. "Forgive me for being sudden Y/n, but would you like to get a drink with me tonight?" He asked nervously, playing with his hat in his lap. I smiled, leaning forward and kissing his cheek, causing him to blush red. "Uh...what is your book about if you don't mind asking?" Gripping the ice pack, I felt a little shy since what happened today might have just given me the inspiration I needed. "Well, John, I wasn't really sure until now. Would you be open to me writing it about you and your ranch?" John placed his hand on mine softly, placing his cowboy hat on my head smiling. "As long as you write the truth and consider letting me take you on a date. I'll be happy." Monica was right that coming here was a good idea.
