Friends to lovers

Cowboys

The next day I wake up and do my normal routine I freshen up , do my hair , get dressed , eat , and then leave .

I start to head down to the saloon until I noticed the guys standing in the middle of the road . I walk over to them " what's goin on....what happened " I say as I notice a dead man in front another saloon .

" an old friend got called a cheater and a liar and so he shot the man who was accusing him " Wyatt says looking over at me . I gave a slight nod and I looked down the road at a wagon rolling in

When it stopped I notice a man get out and then help a lady get out she looks down the road at all of us and speaks to the man as she watched Wyatt.

I smile as I see Wyatt looking at her as well " I'm gonna go say hi " I start walking down the road to the lady " howdy mam I'm ( y/n ) " I say with a smile " oh well hello I'm Josephine "

" I see your new in town " I say smiling " why yes I am I'm actually here our play " my eyes widen a little " I didn't know I was in the presence of an actress " I smile and bow my head " I am not royalty please no need " she says laughing

* time skip y'all became friends *

You walk into the place where the play is being held you spot Wyatt and Mattie you head up some stairs to the top floor where they are sitting you sit down on the other side of Mattie noticing an empty seat beside you

" who'll be sitting here " you say looking at them " oh doc is gonna sit there " Wyatt says with a smile " oh that's nice " I say as I look over the balcony down at all the other people " well hello again " I hear from beside me as the chair scoots back a little

" good evening Mister Holliday " I say looking to my left to give him a smile " please call me Doc ...Miss Earp " he says with a smirk making me laugh " alright doc....please call me (y/n) "  he chuckles a little and the curtains

* time skip do to writers block *

As we all leave to go to the saloon Virgil and Allie head home , Morgan kisses Louisa and she heads home , Wyatt and Mattie however fight a little and Mattie heads home with a laudanum bottle in hand

" Wyatt .... She needs helps " he nods his head " I know she does but she's stubborn saying she doesn't need it " I nod my head and Morgan walks up " well come on let's go to work " he says smiling happily

We head in the saloon and I take my place at the piano I look around quickly and notice Wyatt talking to doc , who looks slightly drunk which causes me to laugh a little . I then turn back around and start to play Clair de lune .

I play the piano for a little while but soon stand up heading to the table Wyatt is at dealing some cards until a man comes up " your Wyatt Earp ! May I have your signature? " the man says excitedly " well sure why not " Wyatt says with a smile as the man mentions his wife isn't going to believe him

Three men walk up to the table where Wyatt and I are and soon doc walks up as well standing by me the man with long curly hair speaks up " Wyatt Earp, huh? Heard of you. I've also heard of your little helper " he says pointing to me

The older man who walked up started to speak " Listen now, Mr. Kansas Law Dog. Law don't go around here. Savvy? "

Wyatt speaks up as he fiddles with a coin "I'm retired." He says giving a small smile the older man speaks up again " Good. That's real good. Yeah. Yeah, that's real good, law dog, cause law just don't go around here."

Wyatt sighs rolling his eyes " Yeah, I heard you the first  time. " the curly haired man speaks up again " Shut up, Ike. "

I man in a suit who was the third man who walked up with them finally spoke up " You must be Doc Holliday. " doc smiles taking a sip of his drink and speaks up " That's the rumor. "

The man speaks up again " You retired too? " doc smiles a little wider speaking up " Not me I'm in my prime. " the man nods his and says  "Yeah, you look it."

Doc takes another sip of his drink and and speaks up "  Uh, you must be Ringo." Doc looks over to me and then says " Look, darlin', Johnny Ringo, the deadliest pistoleer since Wild Bill, they say. What do you think, darlin', should I hate him? "

I look at him a little confused as to why he drug me into his conversation but answered anyway" You don't even know him. " He smirks saying " No. That's true, but... I don't know, there's just somethin' about him. Somethin' 'round the eyes. I don't know. Reminds me of... me. No. I'm sure of it, I hate him. " he then takes another sip of his drink

I notice Ringo's hand starts to twitch slight as his holstered gun I make my way around the table passing behind doc to stand closer to ringer as Wyatt speaks up " He's drunk. "

Doc smirks and takes a sip of his drink again mumbling " In vino veritas." Ringo looks over at him and speaks up " Age quod agis. " I look at both them and say  " In pace requiescat. " their eyes widen as they look at me

The deputy walks up speaking up " Come on, you three we don't want any trouble in here, not in any language. " I look over to Wyatt seeing his confused face I then speak up " That's Latin, Wyatt " I say with a smile

Doc looks over to me with a smile " Evidently, Mr. Ringo's an educated man......Now I really hate him."
I see Ringo's hand flinch to his gun and as he pulls it aiming at doc I have my gun drawn pointed right at his temple his curly haired friend speaks up " Watch it, Johnny. I hear he's real fast. "

Ringo speaks up " he's not the only fast one it seems " he looks at me and gives a smile " I don't approve of unneeded violence " I say looking into his eyes showing I'm serious " I was just foolin around " he says with a smile as he starts to show off and spinning his gun around

Everyone starts to cheer including his friend "Come on. Go, Johnny." Ringo smiles and finishes spinning his gun into his holster Ringo looks at me and gives me a wink I notice from the corner of my eye doc makes an irritated face and he finishes his drink and starts to spin the cup around making fun of Ringo

I laugh as I'm putting my gun back into the holster that I've was holding by my side since Ringo wasn't a threat anymore I cheer doc on laughing seeing Ringo's face go from happy to irritated not liking the fact he's being made fun of

Doc smiles as he finishes making fun of him acting as if he holstered the cup the curly haired man laughs and pats Ringo on the shoulder signaling for them to leave to go to the bar

They walks off goin to the bar and I look over at Wyatt " who were they " I whisper so they wouldn't hear me " they are cowboys they pretty much do anything they want " Wyatt says shuffling some cards

Doc looks at me smiling and says " you defended me thank you " I smile and bow my head " your welcome I could tell he was gonna pull his gun out " doc nods his head and speaks up " his hand was twitching .... It gives it away " he smirks and I laugh " yeah it's does "

I yawn and stretch slightly " imma head to my cabin " I say I look to Wyatt " hey make sure they don't leave a few minutes after I leave . I don't want them knowing where I'm at , and that Ringo was flirting with me so watch him very close "

Wyatt nods his head " you got it " I smile and I slip out the door quickly hoping they wasn't watching me . I start walking down to my cabin making sure I'm not being followed .

I walk into my cabin shutting the door I take off my boots , my jacket  , and my hat I then slip into my sleepwear after I freshen up I blow my candles out and I lay down covering up and falling asleep

I'm sorry for the long wait my huckleberries I had writers block and I didn't know what to do so for the past day or two I was forcing myself to write this chapter to hopefully get out of this block
