You trailed your horse behind Dutch as he was talking to Hosea. Admiring the early morning light that sneaked through the leaves of the trees onto the objects beneath them.
"Where are Arthur and Bill?" Dutch asked.
"Already gone. Bill was getting impatient so Arthur followed" Hosea replied as he slowed his horse next to Dutch. "So what we doing, Dutch? Rob em? Or stay a while?"
"I was thinking on getting good buddies with this Sherrif. Grey. See what's going on with them, gain their trust and maybe go on from there?" Dutch explained with vigorous hand movements.
"Don't forget about there neighbors. The Braithwaits" Hosea groaned out.
Dutch groaned back in agreement.
"Remember, don't use your lasts names. We don't want our cover to be blown" Dutch yelled out at the both of you.
...
Arriving in the town of Rhodes, the three of you parked your horses up at the Sheriff's hut and climbed down.
"I'm off to see some deals in the saloon. Heard from a few folks that there might be some trouble round here for robbing" Hosea chuckled and walked off.
You began to walk into the hut before you were stopped by a hand grabbing your arm.
"Don't leave my side" He whispered in a deep tone.
You nodded with a bite on your lip and followed behind Dutch.
...
"Of course, of course- oh. And here is my dear friend, Dutch O'Malley- And.. uh.. Y/n?" Arthur spoke then was caught off guard when he saw your face appear from behind Dutch.
"y/n O'Malley" You blurted out with a grin.
Dutch looked down at you with shock before turning back to the drunken sheriff who was sitting.
"Mr. Callahan never mentioned you had such a beautiful wife" The man tried to get up and shake your hand but stumbled due to his intoxication.
You chuckled and took the man's hand and shook it gently before he let go. "Sherrif Grey"
Dutch grinned to himself but you caught it in the corner of your eye.
Your eyes traveling around the room you saw that Arthur was looking directly at you, looking a little off so you made a funny face at him and he just shook his head with a little grin. You noticed Bill was in the back playing with one of his own guns with one foot up on the table while Dutch and Arthur talked.
You minded your own business in the back, looking at the jail cells and some of the art on the wall.
Your eyes secretly traveled back to the group as you watched Dutch take a big swig of the moonshine container that was going around. He didn't seem to flinch at the taste it apparently had when Arthur had taken some.
Instead, he made an 'Ahh" sound as he passed the bottle to Bill.
You raised an eyebrow and bit your lip suppressing a smile.
...
After a few seconds Sheriff. Grey stumbled out of the room where he fell down outside the door with a loud thump.
"Hah! I told you we was moving up in this world" Duch said as he rumbled around in a drawer. "Deputies" He said as he held up two Sheriff badges.
"You have finally lost your mind!" Arthur barked staring into Dutchs's eyes with a frowned face.
