At the saloon it got darker and there was more drinking. Amber and Eddie flirting a lot. Patricia was getting drinks and Joy was keeping things under control. She and Patricia stepped outside and saw a horse. Joy's eyes widened as she saw who was ontop.

"Tell everyone to hide their drinks, Rutter's here," Joy said.

"Who's Rutter?" Patricia asked.

"Sheriff, now go," Joy instructed. Patricia darted inside while Joy put on a bright smile. Fabian Rutter came closer and looked at the bar in distaste.

"Joy," Fabian said.

"Hi, so what brings you here? Why aren't you with your lovely wife?" Joy asked.

"My wife is at home and I am just making sure you are doing everything you're supposed to," Fabian said.

"Oh yes, I wouldn't want a night in jail again," Joy said. Fabian nodded and got off his horse. "I promise everything is fine,"

"Are you trying to hide something?" Fabian asked.

"Of course not just talking. It's so hot in there," Joy said.

"Well it's cold out here," Fabian said. Joy held back the urge to yell at him. She just wanted him to go away. Fabian entered the bar and the crowd suddenly quieted down.

"Just harmless fun, sheriff," Amber said walking over.

"I guess that's fine. I'll go," Fabian said. With that he stepped outside. Fabian hid a building over. He didn't trust these people. If he was right then they would be partying as soon as he left.


Amber

Thank god, that fun killer left. The drinks came back out and I walked back over to my new friend. He's so dangerous. I like it. I sat next to him while Patricia brought over more liquor.

"So where are you going to stay?" I asked.

"Not sure yet," Eddie answered.

"You can stay with Patricia!" I exclaimed. "She's alone,"

"Hell, no," Patricia said.

"Oh come on, technically my Daddy owns the place. Besides you need someone to protect you," I said.

"So living with a criminal is the solution to that?" She asked.

"Hush, just be cordial," I said.

"I'll live with the outlaw," She agreed. I smiled and looked at Eddie. He grinned back. Then the door burst open and the sheriff and his men burst in. Lord. A few people scattered only leaving Patricia, Joy, Eddie and I.

"Yay jail night," I teased. Rutter handcuffed all of us and one guy grabbed me. I looked at the African-American guy who held me (AN: Yes I know African-Americans were slaves at this time, but fuck I'm not writing about slavery).

"Start walking," The guy said.

"What's your name, boo?" I asked flirtily.

"Alfie," He answered. He wasn't flirting back. That'll change. Alfie walked me through the streets to the jail downtown. The whole crew was thrown into a cell.

"You can't keep us here," I said to Rutter. He glared at me.

"You have no right to sell alchol like that," Rutter said.

"It's just a little fun," I said.

"I'll be back in the morning to release you," Rutter said. He grabbed his things and left.

"Well damn you too," I said. I sat down on the bench next to Patricia.

"You are helping me pay for my trip to England for putting me through this," Patricia said.

"Oh hush I get put in here once a week," I said. I felt behind me, my normal spot and pulled on the paneling. A key slipped out. I waved it in Patricia's face and walked to the door. I unlocked it and slid the key back into the wall. "Let's go,"

"You're smart," Eddie commented.

"Thank you," I said. "Rutter, won't chase us. At least if we can last until dawn he won't. So lay low," I said.

"Alright," Patricia said.

"Eddie, take Patricia home," I instructed. The two didn't look happy but nodded. I headed to my house while everyone else went to there's. Romance, outlaws and jail just a normal day for me.


Nina Rutter sat in her bed waiting for her husband. Next to her K.T was sitting in a rocking chair with a blanket.

"Where is he?" Nina said annoyed.

"Keeping the town in line," K.T said. Nina huffed and grabbed her hairbrush.

"It's getting late," Nina said brushing through her curly blonde hair. "Animals come out,"

"He's fine," K.T promised. As if on cue Fabian walked in. Nina perkily straightened up.

"Hi my love," Nina said.

"Hello love," Fabian said. "Kara,"

"Hello Mr. Rutter," K.T said.

"Can you leave me and my wife?" Fabian asked. K.T nodded and left.

"What were you doing?" Nina asked.

"Busting the people in that saloon," Fabian said.

"Why don't you like them?" Nina asked as Fabian changed clothes.

"They don't listen to me," He said. Nina nodded as her husband sat next to her.

"Was Clarke there?" She asked curiously.

"No, not this time," He said.

"Where do you think he was?" She asked curiously. She was hoping Jerome would be forced to stay in jail.

"Probably out harassing someone," He said.

"Can't you arrest him?" She asked. Fabian sighed.

"Not without proof," He explained. Nina nodded and laid into her husbands arms.

"What if we had proof?" She asked.

"Then I could arrest him but he'd probably escape," He said. Nina nodded. There was no real way to get rid of him.


Patricia and Eddie made it to Patricia's new home. She unlocked the door and walked inside. Eddie looked around the small place.

"I guess we have to sleep together. Touch me and I'll shoot you," Patricia said making her way into the bedroom.

"Don't worry Darlin'," Eddie said.

"Don't call me darling," Patricia threatened. Eddie laughed and stripped down, not fully just to his under clothes. Patricia put on a night gown and the two got into bed.

"Night friend," Eddie said a bit deviously. Patricia rolled her eyes and rolled over. Her living with him? This shouldn't last long.
