reuniting with an irish outlaw •ch 3•

Grace sat in camp, cleaning her gun

Dutch put a hand on her shoulder and she turned her head slightly and glanced up "Trelawney found Sean, him, Charles, Javier, and Arthur are there, go on and join the rescue group of you want to"

Grace leapt to her feet Dutch quickly pulled his hand back "knew it, they're by blackwater" he said as she rushed past him and moved towards Jenny "thanks for the info Dutch!" She said before mounting up and riding off

...

Grace dismounted Jenny and slipped quietly over to the spot where Javier, Charles, and Arthur were scouting blackwater

She snuck behind them and slapped Javier's ass "sup fuckers I'm here to rescue an Irish guy!"

Javier yelped and jerked around "what the fuck??"

She burst out laughing "Sorry I had to!"

Javier blushed and turned around "well... anyways... the bounty hunters are somewhere near there, they're probably heading over to a boat" he said while pulling his binoculars back up to his face

Grace lay down in the middle of Javier and Arthur and snatched Javier's binoculars

"They definitely look like bounty hunters" she murmured before Javier snatched his binoculars back and stuck his tongue out at Grace

Grace gave a fake surprised gasp and then stuck her tongue out back at him

Arthur got up "stop fooling around, let's find that boat" he said while Charles nodded and stood up "I'll go scout on the cliff over there" he said before going racing off

Grace and Javier got up and looked at each other before going over to their horses and mounting up, following Arthur

Javier glanced over to Grace and blushed but quickly ducked his head while Grace continued to stare, blushing.

She gave her head a shake and flicked her reins going up to Arthur's side

"So... erm... what do we do once we get Sean free?" She asked, clearing her throat

Arthur glanced over "we get our asses out of here before Pinkertons come" he replied simply while Grace nodded

...

Bang!

Sean fell down as his rope snapped. Grace hollistered her revolver while Arthur rushed over and cut him loose,

Sean immidiantly stood up and jumped at Grace, hugging her

Grace giggled and hugged him back tightly "I thought something bad was gonna happen to you!"

Sean pulled his head back and smiled "oh ya know nothin' bad can happen to good ol' me!" He laughed

Javier grabbed Sean's shoulder while Grace pulled apart, wiping a tear from an eye "let's save the reuniting for later, we gotta get our asses back to camp"

Sean nodded while Grace whistled for Jenny

Jenny came trotting over and Grace mounted up, watching Javier call for Boaz and mount up, Sean climbing up and grabbing onto Javier "dont go too fast ya hear, I dont wanna fall?"

Javier smirked and glanced back "but I want you to fall off, might save me from some long ass stories"

Gracw laughed and gave Jenny a light kick before heading back to camp

...

Grace flopped to her side and leaned on Javier

"when I grow up I wanna be a farmer and raise some lions" Grace choked, her words slurring and her face red

Javier gave a groan "chica you've had too many drinks... how about I take you to your tent, eh?"

Grace raised her hand and flopped it down onto Javier's chest "noo how about you take yourself to your own tent"

Javier blushed and removed her hand "you're making no sense..." he murmured, helping her up and letting her lean on his shoulder

"Yeeehawwww" Grace cooed while Javier tried to stop her from face planting

Finally Javier reached Grace's tent and lightly set her down on her bed, she rolled over onto her side and laughed

Javier rolled his eyes and turned around, walking back to the campfire to play his guitar for any other gang members that were awake for sean's party

...

Grace shoot at the enemies while the gang advanced

"We can do this guys!" Shouted John while Grace shouted back in agreement with the rest of the gang members

Suddenly somone knocked into her and Javier and the three rolled down the side of a cliff

Grace groaned and rubbed her head, when she stood up and her vision blurred she saw the enemy was standing behind Javier, pointing a gun at his head

Grace screamed and quickly ran forwards to attack but the guy whipped around and shot her stomach

~

Grace gave a scream and jerked out of bed, she clutched her stomach with one hand while her other was cupped over her mouth

Tears slipped down her face and her breath was shuddering

The tent flap opened up and the gang was standing outside

Javier walked inside and sat on her bed "what happened...?"

Grace remembered her nightmare and immidiantly shot forwards and locked her arms around Javier's waist, hugging him tightly

Javier stood still for a moment before pulling her up and hugging her back

Sean slowly entered the tent "did ya have a nightmare..?" He said softly

Grace gave a stiff nod and Sean nodded, turning to the rest of the gang "let's leave her be, Javier can handle this..." he said before slipping out and closing the tent behind him

Javier rested his chin on Grace's head and stroked the back of her head with his hand "its alright... I'm here for you... I always will be here for you..." he murmured softly while Grace's sobbing got quieter

Javier sat back and let Grace relax

He's not having his life being threatened... his death isnt a bullet away... he's ok and so am i...

Grace slowly closed her eyes and felt herself slowly fall asleep

"Sleep right mì amor... I'll be here when you wake up" Javier whispered before Grace felt sleep take her back away from reality

A/N
I just started my third playthrough, I decided to visit Arthur's grave before starting a new game and I cried cause he deserved so much more.
