Journey Of A Master (MTM Oneshots)

As Tense As A Bowstring (Kim and Lando)

A/N

Hey guys! Remember Bulls-eye? Well, this oneshot is related to that one. And it's a sort of... Continuation, shall we say?

Hope you guys enjoy it!

(Lando's POV)

Kim and I walked into her deserted house, and dropped our bags. We'd just returned from a shopping spree that Addie had sent us on to get clothes for some party.

And it was boring.

Kim was the only thing that made it bearable. Apparently, she hated shopping just as much as I did.

I sighed as I plopped down on Kim's sofa.

My shoulders ached from carrying a billion shopping bags, and my legs hurt too.

But clearly, Kim didn't feel the same way. She rushed inside to put all her newly bought stuff away, and then came out in tracks and a running t-shirt.

I gaped at her.

"What?" She asked, messing self-consciously with her hair.

"Aren't you tired?"

"A little bit, yes."

"So, then why are you going for a run?"

"I'm not going for a run. I'm going to go to the shooting range."

"Oh. Well, in that case, can I join you? Can you teach me how to shoot?" I asked, cringing as I remembered our little competition.

Kim smirked, no doubt thinking the same thing I was.

"Sure. Do you have any comfier clothes?" She asked, motioning to my jeans and polo shirt.

"Uhh, I bought some new gym wear, I'll just go pop that on."

"Cool. You can use whichever bathroom, or just shut the door to my bedroom and you'll be fine."

"Great, thanks."

Kim smiled, and sat down.

(Kim's POV)

By the time Lando returned, I'd slipped on my high-tops, and filled two water bottles.

I mean, just because Lando was joining me at the range today, didn't mean I wasn't going to actually work out.

I tossed him one of the two water bottles, and he pulled on his keds.

"Ready?"

"Yep."

"Let's go then."

The two of us walked side-by-side in comfortable silence to the range, listening to the insects come to life.

The evening was cool, and in about 3-4 hours, the sun would begin to set.

"So, what do you want to learn how to use?" I asked Lando, pushing open the door to the range.

"The bow."

"Ooh! Smart choice! I love the bow."

"I know. It's really cool."

I grinned at Lando, and snapped my fingers, making my purple and black bow appear in my hands, and my quiver on my back.

Lando's eyes widened.

"No matter how many times you do that, I'm always in awe of it."

I laughed.

"It became easy once I got the hang of it. What still isn't easy, is drawing this bowstring."
