Two Outlaws, One Bounty

Part 7 - Preparation

SECTION 1/5 - PART 7

Ethan and Paytah awake in the morning, all snuggled up on his bed. They had a crazy party last night. Ethan was expecting a small celebration with drinks and music... But, there was a band, flavored moonshine, and a lot of people from out of town. People who Ethan had no idea were. He was surprised, when he and Paytah arrived. They both had tons of fun drinking and dancing, but the whole time, Ethan was watching Paytah like a hawk. Making sure no one would try anything with him, or try to hurt him

Ethan gets up off the bed and goes to make breakfast. Popping two pieces of bread onto a frying pan. Paytah groans and rubs his head, sitting up on the bed, he realizes that he and Ethan were practically stripped to nothing. But it looks like they must have fallen asleep before they could even get to their undergarments. Getting up from the bed, he walks up to Ethan. Wrapping his arms around his waist, he rests his head on top of Ethan's.

"Good morning...."

Paytah mumbles sleepily. Ethan let's out a soft chuckle in his throat. Flipping the bread on the pan.

"Good morning, Hun... I reckon you've got a headache...?"

Paytah nods softly. Burying his face into his shoulder. Ethan flips the bread one last time, and puts it onto a wooden plate. Turning around to look at Paytah, he grabs him by his face and pulls him down to kiss. Kissing him sweetly, he pulls away and smiles.

"Go get some water... It'll help..."

Last night was Paytah's first time drinking. He had never expected Alcohol to be so much fun, and yet such a pain in the ass. He definitely enjoyed drinking, but he does not like the aftermath of having a headache. And he's sure no one else would like it either. Getting a glass of water, and Paytah chugs it like it's the last water on Earth. Ethan hands Paytah his plate and they sit down at the small dining table. Eating his food, Ethan looks at Paytah and smiles.

"Is it good...? Or do you need me to cook it some more...?"

Paytah smiles and rubs his foot against Ethan's calf and thigh. He finishes chewing and swallowing, looking at Ethan with loving eyes.

"It's perfect... Thank you, my wanáȟča..."

Ethan smiles and leans forward on the table, kissing Paytah's cheek, he finishes eating his toast and tosses the plate into the sink.

"Alright, c'mon, Hun. We've got some preparation to do..."

Paytah hurries and finishes his toast, tossing his plate in the sink as well. Getting up, he walks over to Ethan's dresser and picks out some of his clothes, considering his only pair of clothes were covered in dried blood, that was a pain to try to get out. Ethan walks over as well and gets his own clothes. He frowns softly at the realization that Paytah doesn't really have any clean clothes... He helps Paytah put on his instead. Rubbing Paytah's cheek affectionately.

"We'll have to get you some clothes when we go to Saint Denis..."

Paytah nods softly. Following Ethan closely out the cabin, he watches Ethan smile as he runs up to a golden retriever.

"Hey, Chip...! Did ya, miss me, puppy?"

Chip excitedly licks Ethan's face. Ethan pats and hugs the dog. Paytah can't help but smile at how affectionate Ethan is with a dog. Chip pauses licking Ethan looking over at Paytah he slowly walks over to sniff him. Paytah crouches down onto his knee, holding a hand out for him to sniff.

"I am a friend..."

Chip cautiously sniffs Paytah's hand, and suddenly jumps onto Paytah. Licking and slobbering over his face. Paytah laughs hysterically as it tickles. Ethan can't help but smile big. His cheeks are hurting from how large it is. Ethan walks over and gets Chip off of Paytah.
