"Goodbye... Isaac."

I ran back to camp and let off a couple of rounds to make it look like I shot something.  I couldn't get Gemma out of my mind.  We spent most of the morning and afternoon together. 

   I got back to camp and saw Benny and Tommy. 

" Hey man did you get anything? "

I couldn't tell them about Gemma otherwise they would throw me out for sure.  So I lied.

" Nah man I missed every target I shot at. "

" Alright maggots,  hand over your weapons! " Sargent yelled. 

We turned them in and went to the mess hall. 

"Dude my legs are so sore.  I don't think I can do the night course tomorrow night." Tommy complained.

" Wait we go again tomorrow night? I asked.

"Yeah so we get night experience as well as day experience.  Weren't you paying attention?"

" Yeah of course I was."

The perfect opportunity to see Gemma again.  I'm just not sure if she knows about the night training. 

   We finished dinner and went to the barracks.  I couldn't wait until I saw Gemma again. Her eyes stayed in my memory the whole night.  I wondered if she was thinking about me too.
