WAS IT WORTH IT ↛ ARTHUR MORGAN [EDITING]

Unexpected

I walked over to Arthur, the short train of the dress dragging behind me. I wasn't too worried about it since the dress was already a bit dirty.

"What's wrong, Arthur?" I spoke to him, with confusion in my face.

"You look.. stunning." He said as he rubbed the back of his neck.

I immediately felt my face heat up and I walked over to Arthur and laughed.

"Well thank you, Mr. Morgan." I planted a kiss on his cheek and made my way into the stagecoach. (We're just gonna pretend the dress didn't take up the whole thing.)

Arthur walked behind me and climbed in next to me, Dutch and Hosea following in after. Lenny climbed on the coach and grabbed the reins. "We're heading out!" He yelled to everyone.

"What a lovely dress you have there, Y/N! Don't you think so, Arthur?" Hosea said, turning to Arthur and giving him a teasing look.

Arthur cleared his throat and muttered, "Yeah."

Lenny stopped the stagecoach right in front of the Mayors house. He opened the door for us and I stepped out of the coach and walked up to the man who was welcoming everyone.

The man looked Dutch up and down and then said, "We will not be allowing weapons due to an incident from the last party." Arthur, Dutch, and Hosea handed him their guns and walked inside.

"May I look in your handbag?" I opened my handbag, all I had was money and lipstick in it. "Alright you can head on in."

I walked into the house and it had to be the biggest house I've ever seen in my life. It was well furnished and everything was spotless. I caught up with Dutch and the others and started walking up to the back doors.

"Y/N, Hosea, go enjoy the party. Me and Arthur are going to pay our respects to Angelo Bronte." I nodded and Hosea led me out the doors, I glanced down from the tall platform to see many rich folks drinking and laughing, I sort of envied them, their lives seemed so easy.

"Alright Y/N, make sure to not get yourself in any trouble. I'm going to go down and make some acquaintances." I smiled and watched Hosea walk down the stairs and make his way towards a group of people.

I walked down the staircase and was offered some champagne. I nodded as I took the glass and walked over to a group of women. They were talking about some of the men at the party. They looked up at me and greeted me with a smile.

I smiled at them and soon got bored of the conversation they were having and went to sit alone. I liked being alone sometimes, it helped me think better.

I looked up to the sky, the stars were sparkling in the dark atmosphere. I looked over to see Arthur and Dutch at the top balcony with an Italian man. I took in the moment until I was interrupted.

"Well if it isn't Y/N L/N." I turned to where the voice was coming from and my face turned white as a ghost.

"N-Nate?" I said, I couldn't believe he was here, at this party.

"Yes?" He said, walking closer to me and grabbing my hand. "I thought I'd never see you again." He bent down and placed a kiss on the top of my hand. I aggressively pulled my hand away and stood up. I ran over to where Hosea was, trying to get away from Nate.
