You point again at a target , filled with the confidence of the last shot. You hold the handle and just point, without positions or aiming. Your other hand supported the gun as you pulled the trigger, your shots sound echoing through the range. The long bullet hits the deers head. You know that you're good. But this was insanely awesome, addicting. You smile and drop your gun, it falls upon your bag, landing with a soft thud, and then you pump your fists. You smile and a few men just stare at your celebration. Their guns balanced against their fingertips, some chuckling, some glaring. You grab your gun from the floor, and caress the barrel. " Damn your good." You place several bullets in the barrel, reloading the silver shaft. You eye your bag , placing your gun upon the gun rest, and grab your water bottle and take a sip, feeling the soothing liquid pour down your throat, quenching your thirst. You grab your bag, and stuff the bottle at the bottom, you chuck it on the flooring, hearing the splashing of the water bottle as it hits the floor. *Bang!* You look to your left, clutching your gun in your palms. The blue hooded boy from before stood beside you, he had shot the same deer right in the eye. The other two boys hover behind them, watching him intently, silently fangirling. You smirk at them, taking my attention to your gun. You close your left eye, aiming at a smaller target, and pull the trigger, bulls eye. You quickly change targets, feeling the cold handle against the warmth of your hands, turning swiftly facing the best target. You shoot, bulls eye , change , shoot and bulls eye. " Score." You say, silently applauding to yourself. You smile and exhale. The smell of the gun smoke gave you a tingle up your spine.
You chuck your gun to the floor, pulling your bag up from the floor, you grab a handkerchief and grab your gun by the barrel, polishing the silver , wiping the filth from the shaft. Your turn your head to the boys, the green and purple hooded boys just stood jaw dropping, and eyes wide. They're just stunned, speech less you could say. The blue hooded boy stares at my face, blushing hard. He turns his head to his gun, and just stares at the handle of it, slightly shaking. I gave them a " what?" look. They straightened themselves up, the blue one coughing. " Wow!" Squeaked the purple hooded one, clutching his face with his hands. " That was amazing!" I slightly smile and laugh. " Thanks dude." The green hooded one puts his hand out , expecting a handshake. " Im Edd!" He squeaks. I grab his hand and form it into a fist , and bump it. He looks at his fist and grins. " I'm Y/N and nice to meet you." Edd nudges the blue guy with his shoulder, whispering something into his ear. He just brushes his hair back with his hand, just staring at his gun, with a bright shade of pink across his face. " How the heck did you learn to do that?" Exclaimed Edd. " Let's just say , I was born with gunpowder in my blood." Edd chuckles and turns to the blue hooded guy, patting his back. " Why are you being so strange Tom?" He looks up at Edd, the redness fading from his face. " Oh no r-reason." He says rubbing the back of his neck. " I guess Y/N just left me speechless." He says, flashing you a smile. " I bet you could beat Tims high score at Asdf land!" -Screamed the ginger haired boy.
"Matt, it's tom." Says Tom, frustrated. You laugh and sit down making yourself comfortable, pushing your hand into your soft hoodie, feeling the wind blow against your face. You look to your left , locking eyes with a bushy haired man. He glares at you.
" This isn't a fucking social club, some people are trying to sharpen their skills over here!" You stand up and stare at the extremely rude and extremely fat man , he stroked his long bushy beard, his eyes digging into your skull. " I would like to see from your point of view sir, but I can't seem to reach that far up my ass." You grin mischievously at him, he seems taken aback, shocked. He grumbles and turn his head towards the targets and continues with his business. Tom holds in his laughter, seeming as if he was going to explode, Edd and Matt just look at your careless expression as you sit down, brushing yourself off. Edd then bursts out laughing , triggering Tom to start laughing, a chain reaction, a disease. Then Matt starts up, spreading the disease to me, I chuckle and smile , laughing till our sides hurt. " Your fu**ing bad ass!" Screams Edd, taking a breath in, trying to stop giggling. "Damn right right I am" you say winking and putting your thumbs up, as if you were in a commercial. Tom slowly stops laughing, once again, his face went a deep red, slightly giggling. He gazes at you again , looking you up and down. You notice what Toms doing, and chuckle to your self, slightly blushing. Edd and Matt smile and gesture towards the exit, keeping a grin spread across their face." Would you like to come over?!" Matt and Edd say simultaneously. You look at them with a slight glimmer of surprise in your eyes. You pick up your gun and bag. Dragging the zipper across the surface of your bag, closing the entrance. " Of course!" You say excitedly.
