Accidentally - An Enola Holmes story

Chapter 3

"Enola is that you ?" he said 

"Tewksbury!!!!" she screamed he gave her his hand. Pulling her up she flew into his arms. "I've missed you " She whispered into his ear. "I've missed you too Enola ."She pulled away and they stared into each other's eyes, a tension grew. Enola pulled away, walking towards the till. Tewksbury followed like a lost puppy. She gave the fabric to Modeste and paid. She turned to look at Tewky ." So....how have you been ?" " Good, working hard." "Changing the world in just one vote at a time " he laughed which then turned to a smile, one that he reserved just for her.

She blushed and tried to hide it but he noticed. "So Tewky tell me about Lady Beatrice ?" "Tewky" he smirked " Don't try to wriggle out of the question Viscount Tewksbury Marquess of Basilweather!" "Alright, alright she's  well Beatrice." "Yes and ..." "Enola there is something you should know " he looked over his shoulder "Could we talk about this somewhere else ?" "Yeah, sure ?" "I know a little place near here. " " Oh tell me, what it's called ?"  "It's a surprise now come on !" "You know I don't like surprises now  !" she said while locking their arms. " Well, this it's  a good surprise !"They began to stroll down the road. 

They entered a traditional Japanese garden with tranquil tiered waterfalls and serene ponds full of beautiful Koi carp. Stone lanterns, Japanese maple trees and Enola's surprise there stood a peacock. Enola giggled and Tewksbury's heart began to flutter. She ran under a blossom tree, and Tewksbury slid himself down the leg of the tree. Enola danced around as petals fell around her. He couldn't do anything but stare.

She looked beautiful, she saw him looking and sat down next to him. She placed her head on his shoulder. " So what's so important that you couldn't tell me in the shop ?"  "Well, Enola ..." he pulled away and turned to look in her eyes. "Enola I !.." And in came the peacock. Enola was so startled, that she pulled herself up grabbing Tewksbury's hand They began to run away laughing.

They reached Enola's lodgings and they began to say goodbye "I've missed you, Enola Holmes " "And I you sir " "It feels like forever since I've seen you " Tewksbury while rubbing her cheek.  "Tewksbury," she said looking into his eyes " What?" he said staring back at him. "You know what Tewky "  "Please Enola I " " Don't stay it, you'll only make it hurt more "she pleaded "But Enola"  "No buts Tewky, you're engaged !" "I know but she's not who I want !" he intertwined their fingers. "I know but we can ONLY be friends !" she dropped his hand "Only friends okay !" "yes, Miss Holmes does this mean I can take you out tomorrow ?" "As friends!"  "Obviously "she replied with a smirk on her face "Well?" he questioned "Sure, pick me up at 12 for lunch "  "I'll pick you up then !"  " Till tomorrow then sir " " Till tomorrow then malady " and he walked away.
