Levels (A Benedict Cumberbatch Fanfiction)

Chapter One - "Hold The Doors!"

"You know what they're doing,don't you?" May laughed as she nudged my arm.

"They might as well sing it into the karaoke mic" I replied, rolling my eyes and taking a sip of my drink.

I watched as he walked over to us,oh so confidently. I crossed my arms and leant back against the bar with a smirk on my face. This was going to be hilarious.

He stood in front of May and myself,eyeing us both so as to pick his prey.

"No" I snapped before he could even get the words out of his opened mouth.

"Excuse me?" He retorted in a disgusted manor,quite take aback.

"No,you can't buy us a drink" I smiled sweetly as I watched his face heat up.

"How the h-" He started,but once again I interrupted.

"I mean,unless your mates over there were betting that you couldn't talk to two ladies without treating them like objects that you can put money on. In which case, they win. Pay up".

"What did y-" Poor thing. He was tongue tied.

"Now,correct me if I'm mistaken,but you and your little friends over there were just betting money that you couldn't "pull one of them birds",right?" I raised my eyebrows and looked up at him with a winning smile.

He scoffed at me and decided to walk away in defeat. I can't believe some guys still have bets to see who can get a woman in bed. It's disgusting.

"You're a little badass" May laughed in amazement,one hand over her gawping mouth.

"Close your mouth, May. Don't give them any more reason to come back here" I said with a smirk.

"You're disgusting" May laughed as she took a step away from me just to prove a point.

"And you dragged me to this damn party so shut up and drink" I laughed, pushing her glass into her hand,and she gave me a sly grin as she drank from it obediently.

It was your typical Friday night party. A friend of a friend had rented out the club for the night and May dragged me along because apparently Netflix marathons and five bags of fun sized skittles isn't a fun Friday night.

Apparently.

No,May's,and many others I'm sure,idea of a fun Friday night was getting plastered in a crappy club surrounded by douchebags and girls who were wearing dresses so short they might as well have come naked.

But who am I to judge?

"Okay" I heaved twenty minutes later,holding up a hammer May who had slumped onto my entire body "Let's get you home" I patted her back with a roll of my eyes and helped her out the door.

"I,I,I,I don't want to go...home" May slurred as I called for a taxi.

"Too bad" I replied,realising I'd have to go with her.

No way was I putting her alone in a taxi in the middle of the night whist she was drunk.

"Just another fun experience to check off my bucket list" I sighed.

-

"Okay,now shut up and sleep" I said as I pulled the covers over May who had practically passed out as soon as her head hit the pillow.

"W-wait" She whispered,grabbing my arm before I could walk off.

"What?" I whispered back.

"Than-" She paused mid sentence to yawn and as her eyes pressed together,she fell right asleep.
