Our New Life Together

Chapter 03 : Strange feelings

Sherlock Holmes P. O. V :

I was really nervous today because, it was Aniki's 13th birthday meaning, there will be a lot of people today. Ugh! It's not that I hate my brother even though, he makes fun of me most of time, it's just I don't like being around so many people all the time. I prefer being with myself. I like the comfort of my ownself. Turns out it wasn't so bad after all because, I got to meet Liam!! My first ever friend!! Liam's very pretty... He has beautiful blond hair, ruby like eyes, flawless white skin, a small pointed nose and a cute pair of small lips.

We were running off to my room to play. It was on the second floor. We were on the first floor, we were in the living room, I stopped running to catch my breath so was Liam. He looked around and awed at how huge our living room was. Mother always kept the house clean and told us to never dirty the house or we'll get punished. Aniki listens to them well but, I don't. I'm quite mischevious. Hehe. Even though, I get in a lot of trouble. Mother still loves me and defends me from Father's wrath most of the time whenever I cause trouble. Yes! I'm a proud Mama's boy.

"Sherly." I hear Liam called so, I looked at him.

"Yeah?" I asked while, looking at him. He really is so pretty.

"Your house is very clean." He commented on.

"Oh that's because my Mom always cleans. She doesn't like dirt." I explained while, stuffing both my hands into my small pockets.

"Oh... My Mom's also like that. " He said while nodding his head, "So... Where's your room?" He asked while, looking at me with his adorable red eyes.

"It's this way. C'mon!" I said while, walking towards the stairs.

We walked up the spiral staircase but, Liam suddenly stopped walking as he looked up the stairs. I was already standing on the first step while, he was still standing behind me so I looked at him. His eyes shined as he looked at it so I looked at the stairs like he did. I observed him for a while since, he was still looking at the stairs.

"Golden ratios?" I asked.

He flinched then, he looked at me with a shocked face. Man!! He's so cute!!! I wanna keep him in my room forever!!! I said inside my mind.

"How... How did you know?" He asked curiously.

"Well.... It didn't seem like you were admiring the way it was made or how beautiful it was but, more like you were observing the angle of it. If it was like the golden ratios." I explained.

"Wow!! You're so cool!!" He said while, clapping his hands in a happy matter. "How did you do that anyway?!!" He asked hyperly.

"Nothing. I just like observing people sometimes. " I said avoiding looking at him.

My Parents say I'm quite different from the rest. They say I'm extraordinary. Due to that reason alone, nobody wants to be my friend because most of the kids say I'm not normal. They say I'm weird. That's why, I like being alone most of the time. Now, Liam's gonna think I'm weird too... What will I do? I don't want to lose my first ever friend!

"Sherly ? What's wrong ?" I heard him asked so, I looked at him, he had a worried look on his face.

"What?" I asked confusedly.

"Well... You suddenly stopped looking at me. He suddenly became quiet. Your face became gloomy like I was going to leave you. Are you okay?" He asked worriedly while, slowly walking up to me.

When he was already standing next to me, he suddenly hugged me really tightly. He was hugging my neck while, keeping me close to him. I didn't understand why but I also hugged him back, I hugged his waist tightly. Liam's warm.... He also smells like strawberries. I said inside my head.
