Hi everyone! Told you I would have another chapter up soon! Here is chapter four! The only characters I own are Allie and the Marshal. Please read, review, and enjoy! PLEASE let me know what you think! :)

"Repeat after me James." The Marshal said a short time later as Jimmy and Allie stood in front of him holding hands.

"I, James Butler Hickok…"

"I, James Butler Hickok." Jimmy repeated as he looked at Allie who looked scared out of her mind.

"Take you Allison Marie Cody, to be my wife…"

"Take you Allison Marie Cody, to be my wife…" Jimmy said with a small smile as Allie tightened the grip on his hand.

"To have and to hold from this day forward…"

"To have and to hold from this day forward." Jimmy repeated.

"For better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health…"

"For better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health." Jimmy repeated as he looked at Allie who didn't look scared anymore.

"To love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do us part…"

"To love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do us part." Jimmy said with a serious face as Allie's facial expressions turned back to being scared.

"Allison, repeat after me." The Marshal said as Allie turned her attention back to him.

"I, Allison Marie Cody…"

"I, Allison Marie Cody." Allie said as Jimmy rubbed her hand with his thumb.

"Take you, James Butler Hickok to be my husband…"

"Take you James Butler Hickok to be my… husband." She said as she stuttered on the word just a bit.

"To have and to hold from this day forward…"

"To have and to hold from this day forward." She repeated as she looked up at Jimmy.

"For better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health…"

"For better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health…" She said.

"To love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do us part…"

"To love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do us part." Allie said with a small smile.

"By the power vested in me I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride." The Marshal said with a smile as Jimmy slowly pulled Allie closer to him.

Jimmy tucked a piece of hair behind Allie's ear and smiled as he heard her catch her breath.

Jimmy gently let his lips slide over hers.

Allie caught her knees buckling but she quickly steadied herself.

Jimmy broke the kiss and looked at Allie with a grin as he nodded at the Marshal.

"Good luck kids." The Marshal said with a smile as they walked out the door.

They walked back to their horse in silence until Allie quickly hit Jimmy hard in the arm.

"Ow! What was that for?" Jimmy asked as Allie glared at him.

"You know what you did." She said in a low hiss so the Marshal wouldn't hear her.

"Well I had to make it look real didn't I?" Jimmy said with a laugh as he hoisted her up on the horse.

"You liked it and you're scared to admit it." Jimmy added with a grin as he got up on the horse in front of her.

"Keep dreamin' Hickok." Allie said as Jimmy kicked the horse's sides and they rode off to the hotel.

~Next Day in Sweetwater~

"I swear I'm going to kill Jimmy Hickok when I see him!" Cody screamed as he slammed the door to the Way Station.

"What's going on Cody?" Lou asked as he threw the letter down on the table.

Dear William,

I'm so sorry that I had to leave so suddenly, but this is the only way I know I will be safe. The man that came here the other day wasn't an employer he kidnapped me off that stage a year and a half ago. He did horrible things to me that I won't write. I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner, but I didn't want you to worry. I'm safe and I'm not alone. Jimmy is with me. He was there when Randall came up and I explained to him what happened. We figured the best way to keep me safe was to leave Sweetwater. To be on the safe side we are getting married. It's only temporary and we will break it off once we know I'm safe. I know you want to hunt us down and kill Jimmy but this is for the best. I will write you when things are settled. For right now I'm keeping where we are a secret. Give Lou, Emma, Teaspoon and the rest of the boys my love.

Love you,

Allison

Lou read as everyone looked at Cody who was beyond angry.

"I swear if I see him I'll kill him." Cody said as he stormed out of the house.

The others followed as they saw Ike coming up on his horse.

Cody quickly got on his and grabbed the leather bag from Ike as he rode away.

"Cody I'm supposed to go next!" Buck yelled as Cody was long gone.

Lou shrugged her shoulders as they all went back into the house.

"Why do you think she went through with it?" Buck asked as he grabbed a biscuit from the bowl that was on the countertop.

"She's scared Buck." Emma said as she passed him the butter.

"The man took away a year of her life and did unimaginable things to her. She found it in her best interests to run." Emma added as Buck nodded at her.

"I don't understand why Jimmy would just up and leave for someone he barely knows though." Lou said as Emma nodded agreeing with her.

"I can't figure that one out either Lou. You know Jimmy he is as stubborn as they come but he always has reasons to do what he does, whether they be the right decisions or not." Emma said as Lou nodded at her.

"I just hope Cody doesn't find them anytime soon with how crazy he's actin'. He's liable to shoot Jimmy before he figures out what he done." Lou said as Emma nodded.

"Hopefully all this mess will get straightened out." Emma said as she walked over to the window.

~Ft. Laramie ~

"Here we are home sweet home." Jimmy said as him and Allie walked into an old abandoned homestead.

The two had put what little money they had together and bought the homestead out for a month until they could get on their feet.

Allie coughed and waved her hand in front of her face. "This place needs a lot of work and a lot of dusting." She said as Jimmy walked around.

"It's got potential. I think we can spruce it up in no time." Jimmy said as he stood in front of the fireplace.

"There's a fireplace, stove, and I can fix up the furniture." He added as Allie nodded and continued to look around.

"What's on your mind?" Jimmy asked as he noticed Allie's facial expression.

"Nothing I just can't believe that we actually went through with this." She said as she sat down on the stool beside the fireplace and put her face in her hands.

"Hey, it's going to work out don't worry. I won't let Randall anywhere near you." Jimmy said as he kneeled in front of her and put his hand on her knee.

She gave him a weak smile as she got up from the stool.

"Come on let's get started. We have a lot of work to do." She said as she grabbed a rag from one of their bags and began to clean.
