Authors Notes: - Ok, if you've seen the show you'll recognize this scene from the end of 'Real Folk Blues 1'. This is my take on the end, mainly because I got a plot bunny* when Faye asked Julia to team up. I'll not give away what happens next but this is going to be my first non-humor fan fiction.

* Plot bunny is a trade mark of Vix the Webmistress. Used without her consent but I'm sure she'll get a kick out of it :)

I Want to Be a Cowboy's Sweetheart

"You saved me." Julia said as she finished lighting a cigarette.

"And you saved me back." Faye remarked with a smirk.

"You're a good shot." Julia stared at the water as it gently moved, and enjoyed the feel of the salty sea air through her long hair.

"It's a plus when you're chasing bounty heads." Faye said, shifting on her seat, on the side of Julia's red convertible.

Julia looked to Faye, her face registering mild surprise. "You're a bounty hunter?"

"Well..." Faye began to say but paused to collect her thoughts and blow out a cloud of smoke. "I'm taking a vacation for personal reasons."

She looked to the blond woman and smirked again. "Looks like you're going through a rough time yourself."

Julia smiled to her then looked back to the sea saying nothing.

"It might be good to work with another woman... You want to partner up?" Faye asked curiously.

"I have..." Her voice trailed off. After a moment of thoughtful silence she turned to Faye and smiled. "That sounds great."

Faye smiled. "I'm sure we'll have a great time."

Julia flicked her cigarette into the water and chuckled to herself. "It's been a while since I've had fun."
