Sociopaths in Love

Murder or Suicide?

I had just got up after a long day, I had a miss call at 11:45 pm from Lestrade he knows good and well im asleep so why bother calling? I called back and he picked up quickly:
"Hello?" He said

"Why did you call?" I enquired

"I need you on a case now and im givng you a partner" He said while I was making tea, I almost dropped my cup when I heard that.

"Um you know I don't do partners" I said

"You'll like him I'm sure of it" He said

"Okay so what's the victim?" I asked sitting in my chair

"Come down here and I'll show you" He siad hanging up. I guess I got to get ready, I threw on a dress shirt,bowtie,black pants, and a trench coat and was on my way the sence of the crime. When I arrived, policemen were standing outside I went in and Lestrade was standing over the body,
"You rang Lestrade" I said

"Yeah this woman was killed and we don't know if it's suicide or murder" He said

"Well it's obviously suicide" I heard, I turned around and it was tall man with curly hair and a hobbit like person.

"I meant to warn you about him, this is Sherlock Holmes" He said

"And the hobbit?" I questioned

"John Watson" He said

"Nice to meet you John" I said

"Try not to punch him in the face" Lestrade said

"Who?" I enquired

"Sherlock" He said

"Well Mr. Holmes, this was a murder because she is left handed and the bullet entered through the right side it would've given her great difficulty to shot herself from right when she's left-handed" I siad pointing at the entry of the bullet.

"Hm, you might be right Ms.?" He said

"Vincent Bishop" I said

"Okay Ms. Bishop,and you know what?" He asked

"What?" I asked

"I can tell a lot about you,from the family to now" He said

"How about we discuss this in private?" I asked

"No, you were born on the outskirts of a horrible town then a family from Cardiff adopted you and abused you till you were about 8 another family from Cincinnati adopted you and you were there 'till you were 18 and finally moved back to Cardiff. By the scars on your arms showed you self harmed yourself for years maybe 5 yrs straight, and the marks around your neck and the scars on the top of your wrists you tried self killing 3 yrs" He said and I was shocked hiding my arms under my coat and hide to mark around my neck with the collar, John looked so disappointed in him.

"Um, I have to go Lestrade phone me if you need me" I said running off, I heard footsteps behind me. I turned around and it was John,

"What do you want Watson?" I enquired

"I'm sorry for the my friend acted he didn't mean to tell that side of the story" He said

"Well tell him to txt me and we can meet up about this case" I said walking home, I walked into my flat and my puppy came running at me. She's so cute and she's suppose to be small, I sat on my chair and she climbed up there with me. I got a txt:
Hey Ms. Bishop
SH
Are you serious? Dr Watson actually gave my number to that Sherlock Holmes,
Hello Mr. Holmes :)
VB

We can meet at my flat and talk about the case
SH

That's fine where is your flat exactly?
VB

221B Baker street
SH
And that was it, I was getting bored so I decided to read a book.
-TimeSkip-
I finished my book and I could finally meet Sherlock at his flat...I put my coat and scarf and called a taxi, they dropped me off at 221B Baler street and I was greeted by a nice older lady saying he lived up those stairs, I knocked on the door and John greeted me when I came in.
"Sherlock! Vincent is here" He yelled and Sherlock came in

"Hello Ms. Bishop" He said

"Just call me Vincent" I said

"Okay so what about this case did you want to talk about?" He said sitting in a chair and John sitting in a chair across from him,

"Oh,well this case is a murder and she was probably trying to tell us something with the picture carved into the floor" I said sitting on the arm of John's chair

"Okay but, you have no idea what you are doing" He said

"She has a perfect explanation of why its a murder. Give her some slack Sherlock" John said

"Fine, but where's her belongings. Phone and etc." Sherlock said

"Right here" I said pulling her phone out of my trench coat.

"Well" He said

"Well nothing I won this argument Sherlock Holmes good day" I said walking out of the flat. I heard someone's foot steps, I turned and it was John.

"Hello Dr. Watson" I said

"Hello Ms. Bishop and sorry for what Sherlock was trying to do he always trys to get the last words" He said

"I can see but I grew up with brothers like that and I won every argument we had" I said

"Oh wow but, I'll txt you when we need help" He said handing me a slip of paper and walking off. I walked home which was a few blocks down, as I walked my phone rang. It was an unknown number:
Hello

Hey its John and we need your help

I just left, but okay I'll be back in a second
I can't believe they need my help and I'm half way home. I walked back to 221b and went in and Sherlock & John were arguing,
"Um hello!" I shouted and they didn't hear me.

"Hey!!" I yelled and they both shut up,

"What did you guys want?" I asked
but,they both froze and I was confused.

"We were fighting over um*cough* you" John said

"Okay and I knew it by the tone of your voice over the phone and you guys' appearance" I said

"Okay" Sherlock said

"Have a companion on who gets to date me" I said

"Realy?" He said

"Yep, John's first since his name comes first in the alphabet. John you have till 8:30 to figure out a first date" I said and with that I left. I can't believe they were arguing over someone like me, I can't believe it especially Sherlock.
