Frank's P.O.V.
We left about twenty minutes after dawn that mornin'. Jesse and Cole lookin' like they did after we had pulled of a job and got a bunch of Railway money. I could tell they were happy about this I wasn't to sure 'bout Bob though he looked like he had something he needed to get off his chest. Billie and Me were talkin' 'bout what we were goin' to do 'bout Jesse horrible mood if it came back after this buzz was gone. Jim was his usual quiet self. The boys were carryin' on 'bout the guy thinkin' Billie was a paid lady last night. That lasted all of ten minutes when she swore she'd shoot anyone that said another word. We rode the rest of the way discussin' what we were goin' to do with our new farm. I swear that if I didn't know better I'd think there was somethin' going on between Jimmy and Billie. It would be funny to see those two together though. When the night fell we set up camp.
"So Jesse." I said when we were sittin' round the fire.
"Yeah Frank." he said lookin' up from the fire.
" I heard Mr. Larabee's daughter is the sheriff in Charity." I said.
"Really, you mean Christopher Larabee's daughter." He said lookin' at me like I was drunk.
"Yeah that's the one Alison Larabee first female sheriff in the country." I replied puttin' my plan in to action.
"For some reason it doesn't surprise me," he just starred into the fire.
"Isn't she Jesse's age," Billie piped up.
"Yup." I answered.
"It's funny you guys got along so well and now she's keepin' the law and you're breakin' it." Bob said. The gang all let out a laugh. Jesse pushed a smile.
"Yeah but knowin' Alison she would have done the same thing in our position." Jesse said pushin' a stick around in the fire.
"True," Billie said, " I think I'm turnin' in for the night."
"Yup sure sounds like a good idea." Bob said.
"I reckon we should 'cause I wanna get an early start tomorrow," Cole stated the rest of us followed suit.
The rest of the trip was pretty uneventful I didn't push the Alison thing any further. All except a conversation I had with my sister. She was going on about how she had somethin' she wanted to say but couldn't because it might upset some people and how Jesse would be angry. I quoted Shakespeare and told her " To thy own self be true. Now that's from a great man so believe what he says and follow your heart." When we arrived in Charity Sunday afternoon it took us half the afternoon to find this farm which turned out to be a not bad place except for a couple sections of fence needin' mendin' and needin a new porch the place was decent. It was nothing the bunch of us couldn't fix.
