Anything in italics is what Jake's thinking! Anything in bold is the actual journal entry! ; )
Dear Diary,
Man. Oh. Man. If someone saw me right now I'd be dead.
If only Pa and Ryan could se me now! How dare they think that a woman isn't capable. Capable of dressing up as a man and traveling across the country...Okay, so maybe women dressed as women aren't that capable, but I'm here and that's all that matters. I'm gonna kill Brian and Quinn. Actually, scratch that, I think I'll just kill 'em all. Fewer witnesses.
Fewer witnesses? Wow...she's tough.
I'm actually considering staying here for a while...for reasons that I'd rather not mention, but also because I've pretty much crossed the entire United States and am a little sick of traveling. I'm also considering not killing Kit. He's the only one that...well...hasn't annoyed the piss outta me...yet. Though his dumping me off at that brothel is a little more than aggravating, but it was also the push I needed to...turn back into a girl.
Back into a girl? This chic is nuts!
Alright, I think everyone's starting to wake up a little so I'm gonna go hid you now. ~Sam
And with that Jake closed the journal, and shoved it back in to the saddle bag from which it came. Her writing had, yet again, left him with questions, but it had also answered a good many. He decided that he'd better finish up his chores and go see how the mysterious girl was doing. Probably still sleeping. Not that he minded watching her sleep on bit.
Just as Jake wrapped up his chores, Quinn swaggered into the barn. Figures that he'd show up just as everything was done.
"Hey, Baby Bear. Anything need doing?" said Quinn,
And it'd be just like him to ask a question he already knew the answer to. Jake's look was answer enough. Quinn giggled. Just like a little girl...
"Hey, ya know, Little SpitFire upstairs woke up?"
"Really?" Jake tried to sound casual and keep the excitement out of his voice.
And because I'm just that mean, I think I'll just end it here. Plus I have e-mail I need to reply to. God Bless! Hope nobody was OOC. I might do a song-fic latter today, but don't hold your breath! Reviews!
