Chris and Julia sat outside the sheriff's building, after the attack on Jesse's kidnaper's they had gotten all of the deputies and the sheriff too arrest anyone they could from the camp.
All that was left now was for the remaining gang members to be hanged and for Jesse and Cal to get out of the doctors.
"Gah, Fuck it!" Julia yelled unexpectedly as she rapidly stood up, spooking Chris. "I ain't gonna sit on my arse any longer feeling sorry for the others and myself!" She shouted catching the attention of a few passerby's. Chris simply sighed before standing up "well cmon then" he said earning him a confused look from Julia "what?" She asked, "you said that you wanted to improve your rifle skills and I want to improve my throwing knife skills, so let's go practice" Chris told Julia as he made his way over to his horse and retrieved his rifle before making his way to a shooting gallery.
Julia followed and watched as he rapidly hit five bottles in rapid succession. "You make it look so easy." Julia told Chris as she took the rifle off of him. it was heavy yet light, there was a slight crack in the lens, also on the scope was a a small chain attached to a ring, engraved into the but of the weapon was loads of tally marks on how many kills he had claimed over the years.
Using the iron sights on the weapon, Julia raised the gun into her shoulder, she missed due to the kick on the rifle sending it flying out of her arms. Chris laughed hysterically at this, warning him a punch in the arm. "Looks like I'm gonna have to teach ya how to use that" Chris told Julia as he picked up the gun. He pressed the gun into her shoulder and made her position her hands on as far away from each other as possible.
He then stood behind her and told her to move her left leg forward and lean on it. Chris then pressed Julia's head against the rifle but and said "aim on the inhale, fire on the exhale" Julia followed what Chris said and fired hit the closest bottle. Julia smiled and turned to Chris who motioned for her to continue, which she did and to her surprise hit every single bottle.
She then placed the rifle on the bench and hugged Chris, after their embrace they looked each other in the eyes, and slowly leaned in for a kiss. "Oi you two, get a room" Cal shouted as he hobbled over with Jesse leaning on him to the two breaking them apart. Julia and Chris both blushed at being caught before walking over to the other pair. Both still as red as tomatoes.
