🍓The first “I Love You’s”
Technically he said the first “I love you.”
It was over the silliest thing too.
It was nearing nighttime and as the sunset you went out to find your cowboy.
And of course, Arthur was over by the horses.
Wanting to surprise him you walked slowly and careful signaling anyone who gave u questioning looks to be quiet.
You could hear Arthur talking to someone but you couldn’t quite make out who, but the closer you got you noticed that he wasn’t talking to a person, but the horses.
You stopped to take in the scene watching him brush one of the horses.
“That girl of ours is mighty fine don’t ya think” You waited a bit longer not wanting to interrupt the soft moment you had caught Arthur in as he spoke again, “I think I’m in love with her.”
Your eyes went wide, did you hear him right? He said love a smile appeared on your face.
“I think she loves you back” Arthur’s head snapped towards you and his face went red, part of the reason was being caught talking to the horses and the other half for you saying you loved him back.
One moment he’s by the horses he’s pulling you into a bone crushing hug.
“I love you doll.” “I love you too Arthur….but your crushing me”
Not really surprising but you said the first “I love you”
That’s just because John is a little oblivious. I took him months until he could finally get the hint that you were flirting with him and even then you still had to make the first move
You sitting by the fire, taking in the night sky when
“Mind if I join you” you looked over to see John walking towards the spot you claimed for the night
You shook your head and moved over and patted the spot by you “not at all”
He was probably about only a couple feet away and he still managed to catch his foot on a rock and came tumbling down. He fell with a “SHIT” and landed with and “oof”.
He landed right by you and you started to laugh “hey what’s so funny”
Still giggling you shook you head slowly and gave him a found look “oh John marston, I love you”
This caused him to smile “really?”
“Yeah, really” forgetting that he has on the ground you gestured to the spot beside you “you gonna stay on the ground for the rest of the night?”
With this he scrambled to the seat next to you, and pulling you into his lap
Resting his head on top of yours he sighed out “I love you too
As we all know Sean’s love language is teasing, and that meant sometimes he’d accidentally hurt your feelings
And that’s exactly what he did
“Well fuck you too Sean” you said storming off. You know it was meant to be a joke, you and Sean poke fun at each other all the time but time he went a little too far
“Wait, love, I didn’t mean it” Sean was chasing after you “it was s’posed to be a joke
You turned around to face him with tears in your eyes “no Sean…just leave me alone for a while…please” that broke Sean’s heart he was supposed to make you laugh not make you cry
“Yeah okay” with that he watched you walk away hanging his head he walked the other way not wanting to upset you even farther
“What’s got you all upset?” “I’m not in the mood Arthur”
Arthur took a seat next to Sean “c’mon now kid something has to be bothering you.”
Sean sighed “I might’ve taken a joke too far”
Arthur shook his head “And did you use this joke on your one and only?” Sean nodded “And what exactly was this joke?”
Sean looked around and then whispered something into Arthur’s ear, the others eyes widened and he took is hat off and smacked Sean with it
“Dagnabbit MacGurie you better march oh over there and apologize before it’s too late” “but-“ “NOW”
Sean for up and quickly went to find you, he found you sitting by a tree with your head in you hands
Sean came over and sat by you “I’m…sorry love…I didn’t mean to take the joke that far”
You sniffled “yeah I know, it just hurt my feelings y’know”
“Come here “ you moved to lean on him
“I hate you.” “No you don’t.” “No I don’t.” “Ya love me really.” “Yeah I do .”
He held you closer “I love ya too”
Dutch said it first, and of course, it was as dramatic as he is
You both are in his tent laying on his bed
“Y’know what my dear” he proclaimed randomly that night
This made you move to your side propping up your head up with your elbow “yes Dutch?” Not bothered by this because this is how he was
“I do believe I am in love with you”
This made you sit up completely “what?” Looking at him is disbelief “Dutch you can’t just say things like that”
“And why not?” He sat up too “I’m in love with you and I’m afraid there’s nothing you can do about it”
“You really mean that?” and Dutch took that as a challenge
“i do declare I'm in love with you" he said as he grabbed you're face and peppered it with kisses. "i will shout it on top of rooftops if that makes you believe me"
you giggled at this "you practically already are Dutch"
"i can be louder if you'd like" outside you hear the groans of the others in the camp and a collective of "no's"
you are both sent into a fit of laughter as you calm down you settle back onto the bed.
Dutch laid down and pulled you closer.
You said “I love you first”
Only because Charles wasn’t the best at talking about how he felt, so he would show you
His love language is gift giving, not all his gifts where big and extravagant, but they where mostly just things that reminded him of you
And I’m this instance it was a flower
You were waiting for Charles to get back from his lastest job. You haven’t seen him all day but your not extremely worried sometimes you two wouldn’t See each of days, but that’s how it goes when your in the great Van Der Linde Gang
Your thoughts are interrupted by the sound of horses riding into camp. And there he was
You ran up to him just as he was getting off his horse and wrapped your arms around his shoulders and pulled him into a kiss
“Hey there lover boy” you said still hanging off of his shoulder “miss me”
He leaned down to capture your lip into another kiss and hummed into it “always” the two of you stood there like that for a minute. Not minding the rude look Micha was giving the both of you
“I brought you something back” this made you look up
“When do you not?” He shrugged his shoulders and turned back to dig through his saddle bag
“I hope it’s not to squished i tried to be careful” he handed you a light blue flower.
“Oh Charles” you couldn’t get over how sweet he was
“It made me think of you” he bashfully rubbed the back of his neck
“It’s beautiful I love it” looking back at Charles you added “I love you”
“I…I love you too” and with that you returned to the embrace you both started in, but this time you both held on a little tighter
Hey guys….it’s been awhile anyway I hope you liked it, it’s pretty obvious but it wasn’t beta read but I hope it’s not too hard to read I’ll probably go bad and edit it later if I feel like to, thanks to everyone still reading and liking my stuff it means a lot , love y’all 🍓
