So for the sake of story, you are working in the Mann co store at register after your college fell sick. You take orders directly from the administrator.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(Y/n)'s pov

Just another boring work day. I usually manage the online store, where people would buy virtual weapons and accessories for some videogame the administrator created, but due to the regular cashier being sick, I had to take over and boooooy is it boring. The most interesting thing to happen was a huge crate filled with custom-made bullets came in for someone named "Misha".

It was almost closing time when I got the first actual customer. He had brown hair partially covered with a slouch hat with a band of crocodile teeth around it. He was wearing tinted sunglasses so I couldn't see his eyes but his clothes were casual; a black vest, a red long sleeved shirt with his logo on it and brown baggy pants. Judging by the logo on his arm, he was the red team's sniper.

"Oy Harry, have y-" He stopped talking abruptly after realising I wasn't the usual cashier. Shame, he has such a nice voice. Gruff and with an Australian accent.

"Ah, yes. Sorry for the inconvenience but our usual cashier is off sick so I had to step in. Can I help you?" I give him my most welcoming smile and it seems to work.

"Don't worry about it sheila, no problem. 'Sides, you're far more of a looker than Harry was."

I laugh at that.

"Hey, at least it's good for business." I joke and he laughs, clearly more relaxed than when he cut himself off earlier.

"Anyways, oi was wonderin' if you have any compound bows for sale?" He asked.

"Sure, we have a couple different models if you're interested. Or do you have one already in mind?" He seems to think about it for a bit before deciding.

"Oi'll take a look at some different ones." His face seems to flush as I smile.

"Ok, wait here and I'll be right back." He nodded and I left to go get the bows. He is a really interesting person. He wasn't afraid to joke about the obvious use of me as eye candy and he has a pretty chill and down to earth personality overall.

Sniper's pov

I was not chill, I was not chill! What the hell just happened! I walked into the store looking for a bow and possibly a chat with Harry but he wasn't there! Instead I found a freaking goddess with a great sense of humour! What the actual fuck administrator, you don't change something in the store and don't tell us! Dear god, I keep replaying that moment over and over.

"Ah, yes. Sorry for the inconvenience but our usual cashier is off sick so I had to step in. Can I help you?" and then she smiled and I felt like the biggest idiot ever. Here was this gorgeous woman and I came bursting in, calling her harry and making a joke that was basically "haha, you're better than this other person because you're hot" and she laughed. Then she was joking and I got over my initial shock. I couldn't help but steal looks at her though. Then she was talking about bows and models, I think, and asked me if I wanted to look at some.

My stupid brain then thought she was talking about modelling for me and I almost passed out. Then I realised she was talking about different bow designs and pulled myself together. I think I played it cool but I am still internally cringing.

"Hello?" OHMYGOSHSHE'SSUDDENLYHERE! Act natural, act natural. Don't fuck this up, if you ruin this, I will slap you.

"Hey, sorry bout that. Oi was lost in thought." Nice save.

She raises an eyebrow. "Yeah, I could see. Anyways, I brought a few bows. This one is made from-" she continues talking but I kinda tune it out.

I take the opportunity to study her face more closely. She has (e/c) eyes that have a kind of mischievous twinkle in them, her lips were curling into a half smile as she explained the advantages and disadvantages of each bow. She had lines around her eyes that showed this was a person who smiled often and genuinely.

I tuned back into the conversation as she was explaining the last one.

"-to better improve accuracy. So, any in particular catch your eye?" she smiles again at me and I feel a warmth in my chest.

"Uhhh, that one." I pointed to one on the far left and she nodded with approval. Good, I made the right choice. She inputs some stuff into the register and hands it to me.

"That'll be $49.87" I fumbled in my pocket for the money and hand it over. She gave me my change and I stuffed it in my pocket.

"Thank for doing business with us." she smiled, but this time it was more of a smirk, like she'd noticed something funny. I wracked my brain trying to figure it out but I had no idea so I shrugged and waved goodbye as I was leaving. She was still smirking and I had no idea why.

It wasn't until I was driving to the base that I realised. I'd put my hand to my face to rub some sleep away when I realised that I wasn't wearing my glasses. I thought back to when I might've lost them but the only time I was distracted enough was... oh god. When I was lost in thought back at the store. Before she explained everything and I tuned out. Which means...

She saw me staring.

Timeskip brought to you by jarate.

Half an hour after my revelation, I was still sulking around my camper. She probably thinks I'm a creep or some obsessed weirdo. In frustration I threw my hands inside my pockets and found something I hadn't noticed before with my change. It was a note. I hurriedly read it:

If you ever want to see your cool sunglasses again, come to the Mann co store with flowers.

A date can then be arranged at the location if you're interested.

-(y/n)

"That sly sheila stole my sunglasses when oi wasn't paying attention." I said out loud to no-one.

I smiled, put the note on my dresser and prepared to go buy some flowers for a soon to be unforgettable date.

Narrator's pov

Outside of the camper, spy adjusted his tie and uncloaked.

"Interesting, ze bushwhacker 'as gotten 'imself a date. Ze others vill be very interested." He then proceeded to walk back to the base to inform the others, who acted either mildly interested or like twelve year old girls.
