*My Sweet Paulita* is a romance story about how Outlaw Billy the Kid and his girlfriend, Paulita first met and their romantic relationship. And how Paulita's friend, Elizabeth Perez helps him escape for over a year.

## Synopsis

The story begins with Paulita's friend, Elizabeth Perez (now formally named Elizabeth Crawford) telling the story of the events of their relationship when they were young and how they helped The Kid escape.

The story begins in Fort Sumner, 1880. The four are regular teenagers working as servants for the Maxwell Family (The most powerful and richest family in New Mexico), However, there is some backstory behind that. Elizabeth's father, Chris Neisen (Who was a gang leader Most formally known as "The Russian Joe and the one that started The Lincoln County War.) was killed in 1879 by one of their rival gang (who have all been killed.) Sherriff's have not found the suspect but were able to trace footprints and blood whom they believed was Billy the Kid. A Newley recruited Sherriff Pat Garrett had been told to look everywhere for the Outlaw and ordered a bounty if he would be found dead. (However, the truth is Elizabeth was the true suspect of killing her father because of him abusing her mother and her sister for many years. But, Instead, Billy did not Chris despite killing more than eight people.)

Elizabeth was taken by The Maxwell family (Paulita Maxwell's family) because both of her parent's died, and her sister passed away from succumbing to an “illness”. Despite previously living in Lincoln County, She moved to Fort Sumner and grew quickly along with the family. She made connections with one of the other servants, Deluvina and Lilah Maxwell (They were Navajo Indian sisters that were kidnapped by the Apache tribe and taken to New Mexico for a sum of ten horses) The Maxwell's took them in just like Elizabeth and the siblings treated her very well. Elizabeth met many of her friends Eileen and Edith from visiting Fort Sumner. Her best friend being Paulita Maxwell, who has always been there for her. Their friend, Eileen Abbott was the daughter of a Confederate war soldier that lost his home due to a guerilla fight between the Unions damaging their home, forcing the Abbotts to relocate to the New Mexico territory. Edith on the other hand, Came from Germany and she and her family came to New Mexico to work as Cattle barons. Over the years, the friends became very close that Paulita bought a Purity ring as a sign that they would always be together and stick for each other. Or at least, that's what they promised.

At night, they rebelled against their parents and went out to drink at a dance hall (despite being very young and immature). Paulita came too, but she refused to drink because she tried to be more sophisticated and act more mature as an adult. (Paulita wasn't exactly a introverted person as she was very cheerful and outgoing. But this time, she drank and became apart of the crowd). In the hall however, they spotted a young man (his face wasn't seen clearly) but he wore nicely dressed clothes and a broad-brimmed hat. Paulita changed her mood as she became more tipsy and unaware of her surroundings, she came closer to the man (to which was odd because she would hardly do anything like that). She came back with the alcohol glass shattered and everybody began to stare, to which she becomes embarrassed. she whispered to Elizabeth if they could get outside and the four left. The man was still there, however.

Elizabeth had a strange dream that her father (in his younger self and dressed in vampire attire) told Elizabeth in his typical deep fake Slavic accent telling her that "*she needs to find a young man, White blouse, Red Vest and Long boots, and if she didn't find him The town will be “Suffer consequences”*" Elizabeth was frightened but didn't think much of it because of the fact she was dreaming. But when she woke up, she thought to herself that the man her father was referring to does exist and he's out there somewhere that she is not aware of".
