Arthur stretched. Damn it had been a while since he could get up, three months to be exact. He had been begging you to let him get up, but you just wanted to be sure he was healthy again.

Arthur cleared his throat, that was another thing. He could finally do that without coughing up a storm, after being diagnosed with tuberculosis, Arthur had broken down. He cried in your arms that night for hours. He didn't want to leave you, he didn't care about himself as much as he cared about being with you for as long as possible.

After Dutch and the rest of the gang heard this news, all the plans changed. Everyone's goal was to get Arthur well again, before Tahiti, before robbing anyone, before anything, that was the focus, and it had paid off.

"Hey handsome!" You greeted Arthur, who was sleepily sitting up.
"Hey beautiful" Arthur smiled, he stood up and stumbled into you.

"Guess it has been a good bit since I used these legs of mine" he chuckled.
"I'll get the hang of it".
You smiled. You knew he would. He was so strong.

"Arthur today's the day!"

"Already?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes! It's the first day of spring silly, today is when we are leaving"

While Arthur was getting better, the gang had been working extra hard to find somewhere more... permanent, to stay. Somewhere you all could call home, for good. No more runnin round, no more shootin and fightin, it was time for a new start, and thankfully Dutch had a change of mind and heart because he finally saw what his family really needed. A home, rather than a get away. The bounty would slowly be paid off with everyone's hard work when you all figured it out.

"Where are we headed?" Arthur asked as he got dressed.

"Oh Arthur, it's so beautiful! Me and Charles went to scout the area, it's an old large wood cabin up in the grizzlies" You spoke excitedly.

"That sounds perfect" Arthur hummed in response.

The two of you exited the tent, only to be greeted with clapping, whistles and cheers.

"There he is!" A few of them called.

"There's my boy" Hosea smiled.

"How are you feelin son?" Dutch asked, laying a hand on Arthur's shoulder.

"I ain't dead" Arthur chuckled sarcastically.

"I'm glad son, really" Dutch said.

That meant the world to Arthur, only months ago Dutch nearly lost his mind. It was so good to see him better.

"Alright folks! Let's gather up the last of Arthur's tent and items! We are off to the Grizzlies! A new start" Dutch announced.

The spring air brushed against your face as you watched everyone scurry around all excited.
This was everything, just everything.
A few tears slid down your face.
Arthur, was healthy again, all thanks to these people. Just when you thought you had lost everything, they were all there.

"Hey lovely"
You felt Arthur's warm breath against the back of your neck, his arms slid around your waist, pulling you back against him.

"Are you ready to go?" He asked between kisses on your head.

"Oh Arthur" you turned to face him, burying your face into his chest.

"I'm so ready to live this life with you"
