    Summary

    It’s 1999, Charles Smith is a trucker that makes occasional deliveries to a certain ‘Van der Linde’s General Store’ in Valentine where he develops a crush on a hot, gruff employee. He and said employee, one Arthur Morgan, get into a friends with benefits situation. This is one of their hook ups.

    or

    Modern Charthur give each other head in a dingy motel room. And they’re pretty sweet about it.

    Summary

    “See somethin’ you like, angel?” he drawled, new shirt left hanging open on his broad shoulders.

    Arthur-

    “Mister Smith, I mean to say,” Arthur corrected himself, palms up and out in surrender as he continued chuckling like the evil, bad, evil man he was. Charles let himself get close enough for a quick slap to Arthur’s arm with the back of his hand.

    “I’ve told you-”

    Not in camp, I know, I know,” Arthur defended, his smile falling to something more serious as he took a moment to look at Charles properly, eye-to-eye. “I’m sorry, just hard sometimes when I’ve been gone and you look so…”

    “So?” Charles asked, arms crossed on his chest and doing his best to look fed up with Arthur, regardless of how far it felt from the truth.

    “Sorry, I can’t tell you in camp. Against the rules,” he said mockingly, his cocky grin returning.

    Summary

    It's been weeks since Arthur escaped the O'Driscolls, but he still can't sleep. Not without Charles nearby. Charles is going crazy. He can't bear being in love with his friend. Not when Arthur is in so plainly in love with this Mary woman. The confession could ruin their friendship. Or maybe not...

     

    “You’re leaving?”
    Takes a moment for Charles to look up from fiddling needlessly with Taima’s reins. To face Arthur. And speak. “Yeah.”
    “You can’t.”
    “Arthur.” He says it with a sigh. “You knew I was gonna leave eventually.”
    “But I—” I need you, he almost says. “I thought you was taking me with you.”
    Charles looks at him so fondly. “I can’t—"
    “Was you gonna say goodbye at least?” Arthur knows he sounds more wounded than angry. And he supposes he is.

    Summary

    :::::::::::

    Charles didn’t mean to spend a year with the Van der Linde gang. He didn’t mean to fall in love with his best friend either.

    :::::::::::

    Charles didn’t know they were running without a destination, just forward, onward, upward, through sheets of snow to certain death. Didn’t know Dutch’s plans weren’t plans at all, just daydreams. Charles ain’t gonna die for Dutch Van der Linde. He sure as shit ain’t gonna die for Micah Bell. He might, however, risk a limb for a certain sandy-haired cowboy with a handsome smile and a sharp tongue...
