Sherlock's POV:
I am an idiot.
I cannot believe that I let my job get in the way of Sofia's grief, I feel like an absolute arse.
We were walking to the theatre now and I'm still reeling from her explosion in the factory. I hadn't known her long but i never expected her to be able to shout so loud.She's a kind person and that's what made me realise that I was being a complete nincompoop as enola would put it, but sometimes I can't help it. She's the first person I've ever gotten close to and I'm already ruining it, sabotaging myself as always.
To make things more awkward, I was walking with her brother and I could practically feel the anger radiating off him.
"Look James i-m" he didn't even let me finish before he started talking.
"I have no interest in your apologies, you were incredibly selfish in there. I know she is older than me but she is still my sister and I will do everything I can to protect her, I promised my father that she will always be safe and happy and you are making me break that promise all for a stupid case!" His face was red and I knew he hadn't finished yet.
"I love my sister very much and she loved Will. The least she deserved was a moment to mourn the loss of her friend. I get that you were doing your job but she was just being his friend. She's never screamed at anyone like that which means she cares, and you hurt her more than you know. So rather than apologising to me, you should man up and apologise to her." She was right about him actually being mature."Your right. I'm an idiot. It's no excuse I know but I was so deep into that case, it had me spiralling and the moment I had a lead I just went at it without even considering her feelings. You don't have to break your promise because of me, I'll make it up to her, I swear." As if giving me his approval, he just sent me a nod.
I could hear her whispering to my sister and everything in me was telling me to call out to her but I knew she needed space so as soon as we got there, James and I walked in.
Sofia's POV:
It was tense when we walked into the theatre and I was starting to get worried. This was dangerous, and I had nothing to do with any of it but I stayed because I Couldn't let James enter such danger alone.
I knew enola wouldn't let anything happen to him but it would ease my nerves knowing I was there to protect him, especially after what had happened to Will.The atmosphere at the theatre was eerie but that was because I'd never heard it so quiet before. I came here with Will once or twice when he came to visit his friend, i never met her as I always left the shows early to get home so James wouldn't worry but now I wish I'd stayed just so I could see him happy again.
I was starting to daydream and I felt a nudge."What?" He was looking at me like he'd been caught out on something, guiltily.
"We're going to the top, Enola says that is where the meeting place is. Also Sof let me exp-l". I didn't want to hear anything now, especially when we were in danger so I stopped him.
