“Aim a little higher.”

Your boyfriends soft, deep voice sends a shiver up your spine as you lift your arms a bit higher and keep the gun in your hand pointed at the target. You’re both alone at a gun range as he teaches you the basics, his strong hands adjusting your stance.

“You’re doing good, keep it up.”

Words of praise leave his lips easily, he halfway means them, a part of him just enjoys the smile on your face whenever he gives you words of encouragement.
