O'Driscoll (Kieran Duffy X Fem! OC)

Chapter 13

AGNES' POV

I arrived back at camp and saw that Arthur wasn't here either.

"Still don't think Colm took him?"
I snapped.

Dutch gave me a look.

A look of annoyance?

Whatever look it was it pissed me off.

"Colm may not be a problem of ours anymore, anyone could've taken Arthur or he could just be wandering"
Dutch retorted.

"Are you that naive Dutch? Arthur wouldn't go wandering when he agreed to meet us and Colm is most definitely a problem, he didn't sound very apologetic about Annabel if you ask me"
I hissed.

"She's right Dutch"
Hosea reasoned.

I smiled gratefully.

"Arthur wouldn't do that"
Hosea added.

"Agnes, you don't get to speak about Annabel"
Dutch warned.

"Considering you wanted me to forgive that fucker I think I can speak about what I want, the O'Driscoll's are mostly weak, we never needed a truce with them especially when it involves in one of us been kidnapped"
I huffed.

I turned to walk away.

I sat on a rock on the outskirts of the camp.

I gave Hosea a small smile as he joined me.

"Dutch does care about Arthur and he cares about you too but if there is no proof Colm has him then starting a fight could cause a lot of problems for you"
Hosea explained.

"How could it possibly cause problems for me?"
I questioned.

"That boy Kieran, if the O'Driscoll's want anyone dead it's him, probably even more so if they know your sweet on him"
Hosea rambled.

"Right I suppose your right"
I nodded.

"I'll tell Dutch to speak to you"
Hosea nodded.

Please don't.

I cared about Dutch, he was the one who found me shot, took me in and has been a close friend ever since however I was annoyed he left Arthur just like that.

Dutch saved my life around 10 years ago but I couldn't help but disagree with some of his methods especially when Micah was 'helping' him.

I watched as Hosea left.

I still wasn't over the fact I had to forgive Colm.

Of course I didn't but the fact I had to say I did was awful.

Arthur returned in the middle of the night with a bullet wound in his torso.

Miss Grimshaw was currently tending to him.

I was honestly fearful for Arthur's life.

I went to sleep and woke up the next day in a bad mood.

I sighed as Dutch called me to his tent.

"Yes?"
I asked. 

"I'm sorry Agnes, you was right and I shouldn't have made you forgive him after what he did to you"
Dutch apologized.

"It's ok just please don't make me forgive that man ever again and when we are worried for a camp members life can we actually help them?"
I questioned.

"I'm doing the best I can"
Dutch stated.

"Look I get that but Arthur is the best fighter you have and even more importantly you've known him for so long, everyone here is loyal to you except maybe Micah but anyways my point is these people's lives are important and I don't exactly want to lose anyone to the likes of Colm"
I explained.
