It was the night after Script had been taken, the night after the riot that broke out in the girls' bunkroom, and the night after Gypsy had endured a beating and a bedding from Warden McArthur.
She'd finally been let go, allowed to go to the enclosed yard after hours, smoking a contraband cigarette, sitting on a bench, gingerly. Her back was still raw from the beating.

Jimmy had had a little meeting with Warden MacArthur. He couldn't stand the guy. He was creepy, disturbing and you never knew what the hell he was capable of. The deal that the warden had struck with Eastman made Jimmy sick, but he tried not to think about it. It was bad enough he had to listen to him talk about his evening with Gypsy. Then he was told that Eastman wanted her and to go and get her.
Jimmy stormed down the stairs and out into the yard where the warden had told him that she was. He saw her on the bench, paused for a minute. Lit up his own cigarette and then licked his lips. He walked over to her.
"Get up," he said, it was definitely an order, but not spoken unkindly.

Gypsy lifted her eyes to look at him, her expression blank. She returned her gaze to straight in front of her, taking a last drag before flicking the butt to the ground. "So, this is it, huh?"

Jimmy nodded, not saying a word. He took a drag of his cigarette and looked away from her. He'd be lying if he told her it wouldn't be that bad, if he told her that Eastman was gonna make sure she had it nice and easy. If anything it'd probably be the opposite.

Gypsy let out a heavy sigh, wincing at the pain of the bruise on her cheek. Bitter had hit her good. And then there had been McArthur. Her whole body ached.
She stood up, moving more stiffly then with the sway and swagger she usually had. "Let's just get this over with."

"Fine," He held out his arm to her and smirked. "You ain't looking too steady," He remarked.

She smirked, but took his arm. "I got into a fight with a pack a' goddamn harpies, then got whipped for my trouble. 'Course I ain't steady."

Jimmy just eyed her smirked at her and shook his head, "I know what happened," He said. He glanced at the wagon ahead of them and then stopped walking.
"He's gonna separate us," Jimmy warned her. "I don't know where he's sending you. I don't know anything. Eastman's got it in his head we're trying to take him down. Tommy Trash'll run me a message. Let me know where you are, got it?"

She turned to face him sharply, calm demeanor gone and she held onto him tightly. "Jimmy, you're the only person on the planet I trust! I can't go without you!"

"You need to calm the fuck down." He said to her through gritted teeth and grabbed both her arms. "He won't tell me shit. After you get in that carriage we are done. I can't help you from here to wherever you're going. Tell Tommy and he'll find me."

Gypsy had only a weak control over her emotions at this point, after everything that had happened in the last day or so. Now, she could feel herself starting to panic. She nodded her head, eyes big, staring at him. "Tell Tommy...okay...Jimmy, I--" she stopped talking, overwhelmed with the desire and need for him to hold her, but she just stood there, looking up into his eyes.

"You'll be fine," He said to her. She had to believe that. He looked down at her and then cupped her face in his hands. Jimmy kissed her softly, closing his eyes. She was going to be fine...after Tommy figured out where she was.
When he pulled away he said, "get in the wagon."

The kiss surprised her, more so because she enjoyed it. She started to back away then came back, grabbed the front of his shirt and pulled him back down into a searing, desperate kiss.

Jimmy groaned into her mouth a little bit and then pulled away. He wiped his mouth. "We're taking too long." He looked down into her eyes. "You gotta go."

Gypsy swallowed roughly and nodded. "Find me, Jimmy." She walked backwards so she didn't have to look away from him right away, eyes locked on his, then finally turned away to climb into the wagon.
