Maybe Sundays Ain't So Bad After All

Chapter Summary: Jimmy hurt himself trying to break a horse and Cody volunteers to stay at home and take care of him for the day

(Chapter 1, of Ranch Work is Hard But You Make It Easy)

Note: this ♡ is Ike using sign language

——————————————

Sundays were the worst because on Sundays Emma made everyone even Teaspoon go to church and the only way out of it was to wake up before she did, make yourself scarce and forget or turn off your phone but today was not like every other Sunday because today Jimmy had a free pass and didn't have to go to church because in true Jimmy Hickok fashion he was injured...... again... for like the third time this month

And since Emma and Rachel don't want Jimmy to be home alone Cody seen the opportunity for what it was and volunteered to stay with him

that was an hour ago and Cody really can't tell if he's regretting his decision or if he just wants to punch Jimmy in that pretty face of his for hurting his damn leg trying to break a horse he had no business being on so soon after recovering from a almost broken shoulder almost being the keyword

and yeah okay Cody will admit that a severely sprained ankle is not nearly as bad as an almost broke shoulder however with the shoulder he still had one good arm and hand and was able to walk and fend for himself with the ankle he had to be waited on hand and foot

and Cody was almost damn sure Jimmy was enjoying bossing him around way to much for someone who's supposed to be in pain, he just couldn't prove it without running the risk of getting in trouble with Emma and Rachel and possibly even Lou and if there was one thing Cody knew for sure it was that he never wanted to be on the receiving end of one Lou McCloud's anger so he he was just gonna have to man up and deal with it

maning up and dealing with it was a lot easier said then done

Cody stood in the kitchen next to the microwave waiting for the food Emma had made to finish reheating and that wouldn't be so hard to do except for the fact that one Jimmy Hickok was in the next room on the couch watching a rodeo on TV and yelling at HIM after sending him to the kitchen to get food for Jimmy

"Cody if you don't get in here you're going to miss the opening ceremony!!!" Jimmy yelled out from his spot on the living room couch surrounded by pillows and blankets, now it wasn't exactly normal for Jimmy to be sleeping on the couch but with his ankle like it was he couldn't get up the stairs to his room so Emma, Rachel, Sam and Teaspoon had confined Jimmy to the first floor of the ranch house

Cody sighed "Well which is it you want Jimmy me to bring you somethin to eat or me to witch the opening ceremony with you"

"both"

Cody shook his head it was just his luck that the one day he thought everything would be easy it turns out to be complicated just as he was considering forgetting about the food the microwave pics that moment to go off "it's about time" Cody mumbled as he took the food from the microwave and headed into the living room "here you go nice and hot" Cody said as he handed the plate to Jimmy who took it and nodded

Cody set down in the floor with his back against the couch "ya know Jimmy you don't have to call me Cody we's the only one's here right now"

"I know that" Jimmy shook his head and took a bite of his food

Cody watched him for a brief moment before turning his attention back to the TV

a few minutes passed by with the sounds from the TV and the occasional sound of Jimmy's fork scraping against his plate being all that filled the room it wasn't that Cody minded the silence exactly it's just that he thought that maybe just maybe with everyone gone Jimmy would actually act like Cody wasn't just a friend

it's not like they ever tried to hide the fact that they are dating hell everyone knew they liked each other before they did, and when they did finally get together no one not a single soul was surprised by it

so it wasn't that their relationship was a secret because it's not that keeps them from acting like a couple in front of the others it's because Jimmy didn't like PDA that much after having his heart broken so many times and they have enough respect for everyone else not to kiss and act all lovey dovey in front of them unlike Buck and Ike who don't care who's in the room and will kiss at any given opportunity

so no it's not the silence that's bothering Cody it's not the waiting on Jimmy hand and foot and running back and forth between the living room and the kitchen hell it's not even the fact that all of this is happening because Jimmy got hurt trying to break a horse when you work on a ranch around horses and cattle you're going to get hurt it's a given they've all been hurt before

what's bothering Cody is the fact that him and Jimmy are the only ones home and Jimmy is acting like the others are still here

Jimmy set his plate on the coffee table and looked at Cody he knew what was bothering him or at least he thought he knew and if anyone asked him later Jimmy would and will deny what he is about to do ever happened "Billy" it was short and sweet and soft-spoken but it got Cody's attention real quick

Cody turned his head towards Jimmy and graned as he looked Jimmy in the eyes

"What was that I don't think I heard you?"

Jimmy shiffed in false irritation "Billy" in the same soft-spoken way as earlier but this time Jimmy was looking in Cody's eyes when he said it

"see I knew ya loved me"

"Shut up and get up on the damn couch Billy"

Cody laughed as he helped Jimmy move around on the couch so that when Cody set down Jimmy could lean back against him and still be able to keep his foot propped up

"happy now baby" Cody put his arm around Jimmy and placed his hand on Jimmy's abdomen

"Yeah" Jimmy leaned his head back on to Cody's shoulder and they both turned their attention back to the TV and started watching the rodeo that was on within a few minutes both boys drifted off to sleep

about an hour or so later the others returned home and Emma and Rachel were the first ones in the house wanted to check on Jimmy and make sure that Cody actually kept an eye on him and made sure he didn't put any pressure on his ankle

upon entering the living room both women stopped at the sight before them Cody was sitting on the couch with his back against the armrest one leg was on the couch bent at the knee and the other was on the floor Jimmy was lying down with his back against Cody's chest and his head on his shoulder with both his leg propped up on the opposite arm rest of the couch both boys were sound asleep and none the wiser about the two women standing in the doorway

"I'm telling you boys that preacher gets no longer winded with every sermon" he's been was saying as he walked through the door looking behind him as he turned to look in front of him both in the end racial put their fingers to their lips and motioned for everyone to come over

so the others gathered around the two women and looked into the living room

Sam shook his head "Well I'll be damned"

"I don't think I've ever seen them like this"

"now of us have kid"

"♡they look happy together♡"

Buck pulled out his phone and snapped a quick picture to give to Cody for later before Emma and Rachel shood them away and left the two boys alone to rest

CONGRATULATIONS DEAR GENERAL!!!! HOT GLENN CHRISTMAS HERE WE COME

aslfkjasghk ngl i really wasn't expecting to still be called a general in this battle. let alone have it be what i am known for according to multiple people. but it is a fucking honor to fight alongside you all. this is OUR victory o7

LET'S GO HOT GLENN CHRISTMAS !!!

#sei says an answer #ike-mcswains-mortician #The Advanced Voter Fraud Experience #hot glenn autumn

[tzigone]

How would you AU Ike as alive?

There are plenty of options.

Does Emily just not exist?

If she does exist, does her father still die?  Does she die?

Or maybe the gang never leave Sweetwater?  Or do you go back even further and Sam and Emma never left Sweetwater?  That one opens up a lot of possibilities to me, as it’s so AU. I do like Noah and Rachel, but not as much as Sam and Emma. And I liked Kid and Lou’s personalities better in season 1.

But still, with Ike alive, what does he do after the Pony Express stops all routes east of Salt Lake City (I believe that’s in March 1861)?  Or does he quit earlier if he’s rushing into things with Emily?  Sure Pony Express is good money, but it’s dangerous work, and he might want to spend more time with her.

Would Buck keep having a problem with Ike moving too quickly with Emily after the wedding? Of, if she didn’t play in, would they then decide together what to do when their current employment dries up?

* talking about a potential breakup *

Fortune Teller: But there is a romantic relationship in peril.

Kid: Well, it's not mine. Lou is so loving and devoted, even though she ...just recently chose to move out.

Fortune Teller: I see.

Ike: {And Buck and I are solid as a rock - if half the rock was super attractive and the other half was…. wildly insecure....}

Fortune Teller: Hmm.

Cody: Ha‐ha! This fortune lady thinks your love is garbage.

Kid: Well, what about you and your unlikely partnership with Jimmy?

Cody: I agree, Jimmy is a ten. But, as you all can see, I'm an eleven. Together, we are blackjack.
