Cole's P.O.V.
I can believe Jesse is lettin' those two stay. If it were up to me they'd be on there way to Doc's now but I got out voted. Sometimes I wonder if Bob is even my kin. I just hope we can even get in to Liberty with all the Pinkerton men around here were lucky if make it out of Hyperion. I shoulda just listened to Billie but hell it said right in the paper what was supposed to think. It would have been fine except for the twenty or more Pinkerton guards in the bank. Now were out here on horseback dodging the bounty hunters and law men and I keep picking up certain parts of the conversations everyone else is having. Billie trying to convince Jesse she'll be fine to ride in the back by herself. Personally she's just trying to get him to leave so Jimmy can ride back there with her. Tom and Frank are discussing some poem. And Bob is trying to convince Jim that it's best to leave Billie alone until me and Jesse don't suspect that they still like each other. Well that last conversation is going no where cause Jesse won't let the girl out of his sight anymore. And I'm gonna keep a watchful eye on him cause the last thing we need is those two doin' somethin' foolish. When we finally hit the city's limits I let out a sigh of relief we had made it this far it was just gettin' back out tomorrow that would the problem. It wasn't until Jesse said,
" I wanna see Zee." That got me worried.
"No Jesse that's not I good idea." Frank said. I had to admit that it wasn't not only because Jesse just might decide to stay, but because that's gonna be the first place they look when they find out we're back in Liberty.
"Well I don't really care if you don't think it's a good idea I'm going." He said.
"Jesse it's true there all over the place and if it gets around your back they head right for Doc. Mimms trust me that's where they went after the bank robbery." Billie said, " I'll tell you what I'll go get Zee if you promise too stay at Cole's." Sometimes I wonder which one is the older sibling. Billie is so damn smart beyond her years. Jesse nodded and Billie set off towards Doc Mimms and the rest of us went to where our house used to stand. About half an hour later Billie came back with Zee as promised.
" Jesse," Zee said once she seen him. She jumped of her horse and ran to him. He twirled her around.
"Zee, I missed you."
" Are staying?" she asked. He shook his head "Why not. Jesse why can't you just let the law take care of this."
" Because Zee, did the law do anything when they burnt down our houses did the law do anything when the tried to scare us out of our homes. No, so we gotta take the law into our own hands." Jesse said.
" Well then, May god have mercy on your soul Jesse James and protected you." That was the last we seen of Zerelda Mimms for a while we left the next morning. Not even Billie could make Jesse change his mood he was out for blood now preferably Pinkerton or Reins.
