   A couple of days have passed by and Y/N and Jack were seeing each other more often. They would go to the theaters and watch shows together. Y/N would draw Jack when he least expected it. Most of the time he would have caught her but sometimes she would finish one and it would be the most beautiful sketch ever of Jack. He wasn't really a fan of people drawing him but she enjoyed it so he couldn't get mad at her. 

"Hey how about I teach you how to shoot a rifle?" Jack says while turning around towards Y/N with a rifle in hand. Y/N was at Jacks house. Beecher hope. She was drinking some coffee on his couch while reading one of his old books he used to read when he was around 16. She looks up from the book and looks at Jack. "Are you sure? I haven't held a gun in ages." She says putting the coffee cup on a nightstand beside the couch and putting the book beside it. She stands up and walks over to Jack. "Oh yeah. You're gonna be fine with me." Jack says handing Y/N the rifle. She hesitates for a moment before grabbing the rifle and looking at it before looking back up at jack nervous. Jack and Y/N begins to walk towards the door and outside and walks in a large field so she doesn't hit something Jack didn't want her to hit. Jack begins to set up beer bottles on a table and walks back over to Y/N that was still kinda shaken up a bit. She didn't know if she could do it. She continues to look down before Jack speaks up. "You want me to shoot a couple of bottles so you can watch me?" Jack says before continuing. "Or can you do it on your own?" "I think I got it..." She says before slowly raising the rifle and aiming it at the bottles. She holds her breath and closes one of her eyes. She stares at the bottle for a bit before slowly lining up the rifle towards it. But her hands felt sweaty and her arms were shaking. She takes another deep breath before shooting the rifle. She looks back at the bottles but all of them were still in their original place. She sighs and looks at Jack. Jack had his hands placed on his belt and looks at Y/N. "You got this don't worry." Jack says with a soft smile on his face. She looks back at the bottles and aims the rifle back at the bottles. 

"Hey."

"Huh?" 

"Make sure your back is straight." He says putting his hand on her back softly pushing it and makes her back straight. She takes shots after shots but fails to at least shoot one bottle. She tries to give the rifle back to Jack. "No. Don't give up. You have to at least hit one bottle. Even if we stand here until the moon starts to show." She sighs and aims the rifle. She holds her breath and aims at one of the bottles and shoots. She hears glass shatter. She looks at the bottles and sees one broken and big smile grows on her face and she looks at Jack in excitement. " Told you. It just takes practice." Jack grabs the rifle from Y/N hands and walks back to Beecher's hopes with Y/N following behind him. He opens the door and lets her go first. "Lady's first." She smiles at him and walks inside. "Thank you." She says walking to the couch and grabbing the book she was reading earlier. She opens it and continues reading. 

"You know that was my favorite book. I wouldn't stop reading it." Jack says while putting the rifle up. 

"How many times have you read it?" 

"Hmm, almost 3 times." 

"Jeez." 

"Yea it gets good close to the end. But I won't spoil it for you." 

Jack sits beside Y/N and rests both of his arms on the back of the couch with his head leaned back. He turns his head towards Y/N reading peacefully and smiles softly. 'Shes so beautiful..' He says to himself. He turns back away once she looks at him and he looks back at the ceiling. 'Why does he keep looking at me all the time..do I look funny?' She thinks to herself. She closes the book and gets up. "Thank you for letting me come over but I really gotta be going Jack." She says as she starts walking to the door. "O-oh..uh. I'll see you tomorrow Y/N." Jack says standing up and tilting his hat towards Y/N. She waves and walks out closing the door behind her. She gets onto her horse and begins to ride off back to her house. While she was on the way home. She stumbles a long two men on their horse guns aimed directly towards her. She was shocked and confused. And she raised her arms up. "Get off your horse." One of the men says to her. She slowly gets off her horse still looking at the men with her arms still up. "What do you want the horse? Money?" She asks the men. "No...We want you." The other man says with a creepy smile on his face. "W-What.." Before she could think they got off their horses quickly and ran up to her. She tries to run away but she trips on her dress making her fall. She tries to get up but one of the men grabs her making her start to scream so he covers her mouth. The other man walks up tired of her kicking and screaming and hits her with the back of his gun making her unconscious. The last thing she saw was the back of a gun going straight to her head and then black.
