Purpstho- Learning the Bow

Purps, here ya goes!



Purple was at her base, she was practicing shooting her bow. She was mostly focusing on the two skills she knew were the most important, accuracy and power. The two things which she lacked in; in order to protect herself, she must learn it.

When Purple was practicing she felt a cold wind on her back, this distracted her from her first practice shot. She spun her head around, and saw Etho behind her. Purple seemed startled for a moment, then when she came to the realization that it was Etho she blushed, a bright pink. Etho was only a foot behind her, and was curious in what Purple was doing.

"Oh hey Etho!" Purple said trying to act casual

"Hey Purps... what 'cha doing?" Etho replied

"Trying to practice using this stupid bow..."Purple looked back down at the bow in disappointment

"I think I can help." Etho answered, putting his hand on Purple's bow, causing Purple to look up, blushing

"Um. Okay." Purple said, having many emotions run through her mind. Etho smiled at her answer, and grabbed Purple's bow for a demonstration.

Etho out stretched the bow to it longest length, and aimed the bow in the direction of Purple's target that she had placed. Purple stood still, focusing on the bow and its movements. But she occasionally glanced at Etho and his movements. As Etho did the same; staring in the direction of the target, but often looking back at Purple for brief moments.

Etho let go of string and released the arrow. The arrow was reaching speeds immeasurable by human nor machines. The arrow hit only an inch north of the center of the target. Etho stared in the direction of the arrow for a few moments and felt proud of what he'd done.

"Amazing..." Purple whispered, still staring at the arrow in the distance

"You like that don't you. See this bow isn't stupid." Etho smirked at Purple, he then handed her the bow, and stepped back.

Purple accepted, and lined up her shot. Purple can feel her heart beating very loudly, and it was pulsating very quickly. It was only when Etho was around, when she felt like this. It was something about his persona that threw her off from her usual game. Purple is usually confident, quirky, and is happy most of the time; whenever around Etho, she starts to act less confident and more vulnerable, but there are those days when she does have the confidence and ability to overcome these feelings. But she cannot help being interested in him.

Purple shot the arrow, she missed the arrow shot by a lot. Purple looked down back at the bow, and stood still. Etho came closer to Purple, 'till they were only inches apart from one another.

"Here let me show you." Etho said while grabbing Purple's bow, with her hands still locked on to it. Etho was a centimeter from Purple's back, his arms were wrapping around her's, and his head was on her shoulder. Etho was trying to show her how to fire the bow correctly. Purple was somewhat shaky, she felt insecure, with how close Etho was to her.

They both held on to the bow. Pulled back the string, and Purple followed his direction.

"Now you look at the target, with a sharp eye, and focus just above it." Etho whispered into Purple's ear. Both Purple and Etho let go of the string at the same time, and watched the arrow hit the target, right in the bulls eye. While the arrow was in motion Etho quickly pecked Purple on the cheek, she blushed a deep scarlet. Etho chuckled when he saw her in her current predicament. They broke apart, and Etho let go of her bow and stood back a few feet. Purple turned around and had a subtle shocked expression on her face.

"What?" Etho questioned, smirking

"What did you do that for?"

"Oh...no reason."

"No, no, no, no, no, there is always a reason. Tell me."

"What if there REALLY isn't a reason..." Etho tilted his head, walking back towards Purple. She tried to stand her ground, and put her confident face on, but it was clear none of it was working. Etho leaned in and kissed Purple. She immediately gave in, and kissed back. When they broke apart they looked one another in the eyes, and stood there, inches apart.
