Drew's POV
It was probably about 4pm when we arrived at The War Zone (lol such a crappy name😂) to go paint balling. We all split into two teams, on the blue team: Nate, Kate and Austin and on the yellow team: Levi, Bree and myself. There were two other teams playing at the same time, the red and the green, most of which where around the same age as us.
Hiding behind a beat up looking car we start coming up with some tactics. Since I'm the best at shooting Levi and Bree will be watching my back while I shoot. When we hear the bell go off I quickly poke out my head, looking for a sign of where they might be. Without warning a paint ball flies past my face and hits the wall just a meter or two behind me. Bree moves to the other side of the car and begins to take a few shots at people. A shot narrowly misses her and she pulls back to where Levi and I are crouched down against the doors of the car.

"We need to get out of here and get to a more secure area." Bree says, pushing her hair back off of her face. We nod in agreement but before we can start moving I hear a group of people running in our direction.

"Crap." Levi mutters, we all take our positions on either side of the wall and send a couple of paint balls flying, some hitting their targets. The others retreat and take cover but soon start to target us again.I spot Austin and start shooting at him and soon take him down. Just two more to go.

After a few minutes most of the other teams had lost and had left but there was still only one left, and by God she was beautiful.
She had her beautiful chestnut hair in a side plait and every once in a while would brush it out of her way so that her dazzling brown eyes could get a better target on me.
Levi and Bree had been shot by her so it was all down to me.

"C'mon dude jut shoot her already!" I hear Nate shout in the distance. No I can't...

The second I I decide to move I'm hit right in the middle of the chest. The rest of her team come running back to her cheering and clapping and go to congratulate her.

"DREW WHAT WHERE YOU THINKING?!" Bree exclaims but I ignore her and slowly make my way towards the group.

As she spots me she breaks out of the group around her and walks towards me. Up close I notice that she's not as small as I thought earlier, probably roughly 5'4" just reaching up to my shoulder. She has a smug smile on her face and her arms on her hips as I face her.

"I think a Congratulations are in order."

"Well thanks for being a worthy opponent." A smirk plays on her beautiful face.

"I haven't seen you around here before"

"Well, its actually my first time going paint balling." My mouth hits the floor.

"No way! You're kidding me, you're awesome!" She smiles a small smile and looks down at the gun still in her hands. "..So what's your name?"

"It's Lorna." Returning her dazzling brown eyes back to me. God they're beautiful.

"Well I'm Drew-" A blonde girl about Lorna's age comes up to us and tells her that they're all leaving. Her face drops when she finds out and turns back to me apologising.

"Well it was great to meet you Lorna.." Go ask her out Drew! C'mon! "...maybe we could meet up again sometime."

She smiles widely and runs over to her friends to get her bag. When Lorna comes back she has a notepad and pen in hand and quickly scrawls down her number quickly. Handing it to me she puts away her stuff and starts walking away with her friends.

"Call me later Drew!" She shouts back to me with a wave. When she's out of sight Bree comes up to me and pats me on the back.

"She seems nice." She smirks at me and bursts out laughing. "You so like her! I can just see it now, the way you're gazing off into empty space like that, so cute. You guys would be so cute together! I can already tell that she and I are gonna be great friends." The look she was giving me was as if I where a new born puppy.

"Okay, I like her. She seems really cool and there's just something different about her." I admit. Her eyes begin to gleam with joy. "...now stop looking at me as if I'm a puppy."

I give her a smile and she smiles back, giving me a hug from the side as we walk out to collect our stuff and go home and I remind myself to text Lorna later when where back.
