You and Arthur have been friends for many years. You had been accepted into the Van Der Linde gang years prior so in turn new Arthur very well.

Today was a day as regular as regular can get with the gang having to constantly change locations, so you decided to not get used to a daily routine. You woke up as the sun just began to crest over the tall mountains. Birds sang their songs, the river close by whispered its course to nature, and a woodpecker could be heard in the distance.

As you left your tent that was set up just a few feet away from the amazing view, you could see that a few gang members were gathered around a slowly dying fire. "Y/N you're awake!" Tilly called from beside the fire. "Well, as awake as I could be at this hour!" Tilly laughed at your response and started to talk to Mary-Beth who sat next to her.

You walked over to where the washed clothes were being hung, and searched for some clean ones to change into. Once you found what was yours you headed back to your tent to put them on. you chose your favorite (F/C) button up, and a pair of dark trousers. It was an unusual sight to see a woman in trousers, but you did not mind the looks you got in towns, to be honest you would find it ammusing to see everyones reactions.

After finishing getting you ready you head over to where your horse was hitched. He was a Dapple grey stallion with a black mane and tail, and has been one of the best and prettiest horses you've ever owned. "Hey boy, you hungry?" your horse whinned a reply as if he was telling you he was starving. You always talked to your horses like they were humans, you claimed it strengthed your bond with them. He, not only being the prettiest horse, was also your tallest and stood at 17 hands tall.

As you were feeding (H/N) when you notice that Arthur was finally awake and out of his tent. He had made his way over to where now most of the gang was hanging out at, and was conversing with Tilly and Mary-Beth. You continue to feed your house as well as groom him, glancing over to their conversation you see Mary-Beth point over to your direction when you and Arthur catch glances with one another.

Looking back at your horse Arthur meandered over to you. "Good mornin' miss (L/N)." he said while tipping his hat. "Morin' Arthur." you responded. "I was goin' to invite a group with me to go in to Valentine with me, but Lenny as well as just bout' anyone in this camp is busy doin' somethin'. Tilly and Mary-Beth told me you might be interested to go." you were flattered by his invitation, but you did not know if it would be the right decision to go. After sifting through your thoughts for a moment you decided you could use a little fun for the day, instead of spending the majority of it doing chores for the camp. "Sure Arthur, sounds like fun."

The both of you mounted your horses and head to the town. "So what are we gonna do when we reach Valentine?" you questioned as you sped across the trail. "I was thinkin' we stop by the saloon and have us a couple drinks, talk a bit." he replied and look at you for your consent to his idea. "Sounds like fun, hopefully we won't have to shoot no body."

When arriving at Valentine you and Arthur hitch your horses outside the saloon and made your way over to the bar. "Two shots, please." Arthur requested the Bartender while throwing a coin onto the counter. After a couple drinks, a long conversation ensues, mostly about your most recent missions and how both of you have been doing.

Both of you go to leave the saloon when you both decipher shouts and curses just outside. When you walk outside you see to drunken men in the middle of a fist fight. "Should we help them or watch how this plays out?" you inquire to Arthur. He looks at you and gives you a 'is that really a question look' and turns his attention back to the fight. After about ten minutes, one of the men is declared the winner, while the other is bloodied and passed out on the muddy streets.

The winner walks up the steps and shoves Arthur and grumbles a "WhAt ChU LoOkIn' At!" and readies his stance to fight another man. "I don't want no trouble." Arthur states to the aggresive drunk. "I'm GoNnA RiP YoU ApPaRt, y-YoU FoOl!" he threatened and proceeded to attack Arthur who quickly countered it, leaving the drunk man on the ground. "Y-yOuR GoNnA ReGreT ThAt!" He retorted and pulled out a revolver hastily pointing it at Arthur. The man pulls the trigger but misses by a mile and starts laughing hysterically.

You and Arthur make eye contact and without saying a word decide that it would be best for everyone if you disarm the drunkard and take him to the sheriff's office to spend the night until he is sober enough to return back into town.

"That is not how I expected this night to go." Arthur laughed. "I couldn't agree more." you added. "Thanks for goin' with me (Y/N). Glad I didn't have to face the 'rath' of that man alone." he gave a low hearty chuckle. "Thanks for invitin' me, it sure beats a day of chores at camp. Even though you did get picked on by a wasted man." "Hey!" he retorted back while prending to be offended. "We'll have to do it again sometime." you proposed. "That we will." he replied.

You both ended back at camp, not realising that a romance was begining to blossom in your hearts.
