A/N: My favorite CSI: Miami pairing, Ryan and Natalia!!! This is set when Talia shows up at the Gun Range and Ryan is there helping out. No beta so all mistakes are mine, so sorry.

Disclaimer: me no own, you no sue! And whoever owns Jonathan Togo hand him over and no one gets hurt! :)

Natalia had just pulled into the Miami Dade Gun Range. She just had to get some more practice before her Shooting Test. She hoped out of her hummer and straightened out her green cotton top. "I sure hope this goes well" she hopefully thought. Natalia walked up to the gun rental booth. The man at the booth had his head down so she could only see the top of his hair. "Omigosh I know that head!" Natalia thought franticly, "Its Ryan!"

Turning around abruptly Talia ran away behind the booth. "Oh no, Oh no what am I going to do? I can't let him see me, I have the worst aim ever! Why? Why? Why?" she silently asked the big guy up there as slipped down to sit on the soft green grass. As far as she saw it she only had two options, 1) wait until Ryan leaves and someone new comes, wait she had to leave at four and it was 2:30, option 2) go up to Ryan and hope he doesn't judge her on her. Taking a big breath Natalia decided on option 2.

Getting up and walking around to the front of the booth she saw that Ryan, the object of her affection, wasn't there. She silently said 'Yes!' This time the man was a blonde guy who couldn't have been older than 28. "I would like to rent a 9 millimeter, please."

"Sure no problem ma'am. Here just sign the wavier and pay the $30 fee" the blondie said.

Nat took out the 30 dollars and signed the wavier. Grabbing the 9mm from the guy she walked off to the 10 yard target. She set down her bag, which was Coach of course. She checked the ammo, all there; next she checked the safety, check. Then Talia cocked the gun and turned the safety off. Ready, aim, and bam! The next thing she knew there was a hole in the target, but nowhere close to where she was aiming. Bam! Again nowhere close. Bam! Once again she was nowhere close to her mark.

"This is sooo frustrating. I can't it!" She said aloud to no one in particular. After another five horrible shots and set the gun down and slumped down onto the ground she was so frustrated she began to cry, not even caring who saw. (There were only three other people there, they weren't paying attention to her.) A couple minutes later she stood up again and tried a couple more times. "Hey at least I'm getting a little closer." she thought to herself. As she put down the gun, ready to give up she felt hands on here. "Who is touching me" she thought .

A/B: Hey hope you liked it. Ryan will be appearing in the next chapter. So far I think this will become my longest story. Hang with me 'cause I have exams next week but will try my best to update quickly! Reviews motivate me to write more!
