After John’s previous gang fell apart, he only had one person to turn to after everything; you. You were everything to him, and you were there for him whenever he needed you.

After a while, he became a ranch hand and you two had a home. A beautiful garden was planted in your front yard, beautiful colored flowers blooming and sitting beautifully against the porch. Life was perfect and so was your relationship, so he wanted to make it even better.

He was nervous to take your relationship to the next step, but he wanted it more than anything, so he pushed past his nervousness and practically dragged you out of the house and towards the town of Blackwater. It was clear he had something planned but when you asked, he wouldn’t budge.

“Quit askin’, would ya? I told you, I ain’t tellin’ you. It’s a surprise.” He huffed, rolling his eyes and feigning ignorance as you continued to ask him what he was so eager for. You were equally excited, but also a bit nervous since you didn’t know what you were getting into, but you trusted him nonetheless.
