children, arthur morgan

You were pregnant. Sure, a pretty little scene with a ranch and a horse and a husband would have done you fine, but no, you were an outlaw, and you had a gun at your hip and a fling with the right hand man. You sat at your tent, holding the knife in your hand, and wondering deeply on whether the child was worth it all.

Your heart swelled at the even thought of running from the tricks, lies and danger, into a safe home, with a man and a dog, and money, but it wasn't possible.

The camp was rife with sound and life, and you could hear the sweet tune of singing and guitar from the outer edge of the camp.

Arthur insisted you join them, but with light refusal and excuses he left. With a purse of your lips, you stood to sleep.

The singing had slowed and silenced, and within moments, Arthur had taken your lower arm and pulled you aside, trudging towards the edge of camp and stopping behind a wagon.

"What's wrong with you? Have I upset you? You're acting real strange, Y/N." He looks around, checking there was no one around.

"No it's fine, I'm just a little off." You go to pull away, but he keeps a firm grip on your arm. "Arthur."

"What's wrong?" He puts his hand on your waist and pulls you in a little closer. With a grudge, you brush his advances away. "Y/N..."

"Arthur, look..." He wasn't going to be happy, the grim feeling in your stomach told you. "I'm pregnant." His mouth drops open and his eyes widen.

"With whose?" You glare at him.

"Who else's could it be!" You grit your teeth and turn to walk away, but he has you in a kind understanding hold. His head is resting on yours, and he's grabbing at your waist as you enjoy a sweet moment alone on the edge of camp.

There's a rustle in the bushes. "Waheyyy, Morgan and Y/N!" Sean titters, rushing off towards camp. He taps his nose and zips his mouth shut.

"I'm definitely pregnant with your baby." You say, letting it out.

"Well, then we'll have to get out some things until the baby comes, hmm?" He takes your waist and sways you, before tugging you back to camp. "A little fun." He takes you into a deep, sweet kiss, and you smile.

Perhaps a quiet life wasn't too far away.
