Target Practice
BAM. BAM. BAM. BAM.

Four shots and Del pressed the button to bring the target close so she could inspect her work. Every day she took time to come down to the shooting range to practice. Daddy said you could never practice too much when it came to shooting weapons. Del had learned from him and had picked up firearms rather easily. It was in the blood.

She looked at the target. Four perfect shots. Two in the head and two in the heart. The grouping was excellent as the holes were almost on top of each other.

She smiled and put up a new target.

	"Nice shootin', Tex." comes the casual voice from back at the other end of the range, Alecks leaning against the far wall, having wandered in at some point while she was eyeing her target. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	A brow rose. "Thanks," she said as she sent the target to the far side of the range. "It's been awhile." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Too long, good to see you again." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	electrified 2010-04-29 04:35 am UTC (link)
	Del nodded. "Good to see you too. Though I didn't think I'd see you ever again. Small world." Then again she never in a million years thought she'd be a SHIELD agent. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, well, things happen. Glad they brought you in - seen your records. They couldn't have gotten better at what you do." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"They do," she said. She honestly had never expect to see him again. He was a one night fling when they had run into each other in London. "Trying to flatter me?" There was the slightest trace of a smile on her face while she reloaded her weapons. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	heytheredelilah 2010-04-29 04:40 am UTC (link)
	"Nope, if I was trying to flatter you I'd mention how pretty your eyes are, or how sexy a confident woman with a gun is." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	electrified 2010-04-29 04:44 am UTC (link)
	Del smiled. "Point. Care to give it a go?" she said and nodded toward the target. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	heytheredelilah 2010-04-29 04:45 am UTC (link)
	"Nah, its your time, I get my target practice in, but its never been my strongest point. Besides, it'd cut into my watching-a-confident-woman-with-a-gun sexiness time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	electrified 2010-04-29 04:46 am UTC (link)
	Del laughed and shook her head. "Suit yourself. You can watch and learn then." She aimed and let loose another six rounds. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	electrified 2010-04-29 04:53 am UTC (link)
	Del put down her weapons and brought the target back. Three shots to the head and three to the heart. Once again the holes were almost on top of each other. "See?" she said as she held up the target. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	heytheredelilah 2010-04-29 04:55 am UTC (link)
	"Very nice." he agrees. "The shooting was apparently pretty good too. I wasn't looking at the gun." he teases gently. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	electrified 2010-04-29 05:05 am UTC (link)
	Del may have blushed a little. "All that flattery which isn't flattery. Are you trying to get somewhere, sir?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	heytheredelilah 2010-04-29 05:07 am UTC (link)
	"No, this is flattery. Professional assessments are all business, now I'm just reminding myself that you're cute when you blush. How about coffee?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	electrified 2010-04-29 05:16 am UTC (link)
	"Who could refuse an offer like that after such flattery? You're on as long as it isn't the swill this place makes. I haven't had a decent cup of coffee since coming aboard." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	heytheredelilah 2010-04-29 05:18 am UTC (link)
	"The garbage here? No. Long as you don't mind taking a ride downtown with me, we can hit somewhere with real coffee. Or maybe lunch if you prefer?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	electrified 2010-04-29 05:19 am UTC (link)
	"Either," she said as she put her weapons in their holsters at her side. "You're buying." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	heytheredelilah 2010-04-29 05:23 am UTC (link)
	"Wouldn't have invited you if I wasn't. How about lunch then? You like Indian?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	electrified 2010-04-29 05:25 am UTC (link)
	"How easily you forget," she teased. "Indian would be great." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Been a while, I knew it sounded familiar... guess I wasn't paying attention to the food over the company either." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	electrified 2010-04-29 05:27 am UTC (link)
	"I'll let it slide this time. Next time is a different story." She smiled and gestured with a sweeping movement of her hand. "Lead the way." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	heytheredelilah 2010-04-29 05:29 am UTC (link)
	He heads out to catch the airlift down, and then to the parking garage near where they're stationed. Never miss a chance to drive his t-bird. First, though, he heads for the passenger side, opening the door for the lady and offering a hand in. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	electrified 2010-04-29 05:35 am UTC (link)
	"Thank you," Del said with a smile as she climbed into the car. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	heytheredelilah 2010-04-29 05:37 am UTC (link)
	He hops in himself, and heads downtown. This side of things, at least, he knows, pulling up ten minutes later in front of a fairly fancy looking indian place. He gets out, then moves to open her door and help her out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
