Chapter seven! Scott and Jimmy have dinner at the saloon. Fwhip informs Jimmy about how his deputy duties are going.

"She's right, you know," commented Scott as he sat down. "You're far too reckless."

Jimmy groaned. "Don't you start." He took off his hat and ran his fingers through his hair. "It's my job to protect the people here. None of them have experience with anything more than a drunken brawl. Asking them to fight is asking them to die."

"So what, you'll die in their place?"

"If I have to."

Scott stared at him, taken aback by how matter-of-fact he said it. "Don't say that."

#not in love with this chapter but it's a necessary bridge for what comes next #it's almost festival time!#which means those 'yearning' and 'jealousy' tags will start coming into play #not long now before the intensity picks up and I can finally drop some things on y'all i've been sitting on for a while~#also i don't usually directly ask for comments because it feels weird #but it's my birthday and I'm sick and lonely so yknow 🥺#if you're still enjoying this I'd love to know what you think about it #file: storm writes things #farmboy au #flower husbands
