Chapter 2
The two rode in silence for what felt like an eternity, when James' stomach growled with hunger. He looked at Tom to see if he heard it or not and their eyes met. They were both hungry.
“How about we stop in the shade there?” James pointed at a large tree in front of them and wiped the sweat drops off his forehead with his sleeve. With the sun now almost at its highest it was blazing hot, and with their powers gone they were both sweating like pigs, but they didn’t want to admit they were feeling hot.
Tom, still under the effects of their argument, nodded in response.
The two dismounted their horses and sat down onto the cold floor, their legs crossed in front of them.
James undid his belt holster and placed the gun beside him, then leaned back onto his arms to enjoy the colder temperatures and shook his head. “We’re not going anywhere in this heat, no, no. We’ll travel at dusk and dawn, but spend the noon in shade, what do you say?”
Tom, as much as he would love to deny it to appear tougher than his father, couldn’t help but agree with him that the heat was far too much to handle. “Yeah.” A drop of sweat fell from his nose when he nodded. “We’re under no time limit anyway.”

I knew that belt would be easy for you! You really have a lot of stamina to bring it this far!!
Hopefully I can keep on going and really make this into a full book! :D Some ideas are forming in my head for the future already - but nothing is quite decided yet. Everything is subject to change in those 5 minutes. :P And I thank you for that! From the bottom of my heart! <3
Speaking of which, I still need to do today's! :D
Nice freewrite for your post.
