Sherlocked

The Ball

Sherlock P.O.V

It has been two days since i last saw Mycroft when he told me about who ely is. I still was in shock and awe that she could pass as such an ordinary girl but was much more. It in fact made me more interested in her.

I sit there thinking in my mind palace when my phone goes off.

There has been another murder just like the last two. Come as soon as you can.-Ely

I wanted to tell John but as of right now he was of on a holiday with his wife Marry and told me not to bring up any cases for he wants it to be a perfectly normal week.

I take off the blankets that kept me secure and warm as i dressed into something more my attire.

I took a taxi cab and was off to see the mysterious girl and the dead body.

About 5 to 10 minutes later I arrived at the morgue walking inside looking at the surrounding and remembering all the moments he had with Ely or Flora since that is her true name.

I walk into the room to see Ely reading something.

" what is that you hold in your hand?" I say as i walk over. I can tell her expression is mixed between scared and worried.

" it's nothing." She said but before i let her say any more i took the letter out of her hand.

I invite you to my masquerade ball. And bring that pretty toy of yours since John can't seem to make it. Be at  the inter temple at 6:00-JM

" the man that was killed was holding this letter in his hand planning on taking it here but the syringe got to his brain causing it to loose blood and quit all together. The man had then been shot on his way here." She deducted.

I stood there knowing exactly for JM was.  I knew what he can do as well.

" go buy a dress i will be
At your flat half past 5 ." I said to her.

" wait are we seriously going?!" She said trying to act surprised but she can't fool me now.

I head back to the flat and dress in my best formal ware which os the outfit i wore to John and Marry's wedding. I then opened my closet to see the one snd only mask i had. It is pure black.

It was 5:00 and i knew i needed to leave to pick up Ely right on time since it is 15 minutes away and traffic is backed up.

I sit in the back of the taxi waiting anxiously to see what Jim Moriaraty is doing.

As we pull up to Ely's house i get out of the car and walk up the concrete steps leading to her door. I picked up the handle and knocked slightly. 

" almost ready!" Said a voice coming from inside.

I stood out side the door and I tapped my foot wondering why she is taking so long but before i knew it she opened the door and came out. She looked stunning. Her dress was pure black and it flared. I then noticed i was staring.

" sorry i was thinking... Shall we leave." I say as I escort her to the car. Opening the door like a gentleman.

" thank you." She said with a slight smile.

We were off to the ball.

Once we arrived i payed to taxi man and got out of the car and walked to the other door and opened it for Ely as i held my hand put for her to grab.

She got out of the car and simply denied my hand offer.

Since she would bot let me escort her inside i will do it myself. I think as i get closer to her and slipping my hand into hers.

" what are you doing?" She said shocked.

" i am simply escorting you to the ball what else would it be?" I say but when I touched her small soft hands i felt weird. My body felt warm like everything was hot.

As we walk through the doors i look to see
All the masks.

It was sure gonna be a challenge to spot him in this crowd.

" so many people." Ely said sounding the slightest bit intimidated.

" are you... Scared." I said.

" my people skills are rusty." She said as I griped her hand a little tighter for comfort.

This girl is a killer yet she makes me feel... Strange. I remember that John changed me for the better being my best friend but, i never thought a girl would do this to me.

" you go that way i go this way." Ely said pointing in the directions.

" i would like us to stay together because I don't want  you to get hurt on my watch." I said looking around and observing people to see who fits Jims persona.

" okay..." She said as i saw her observing too.

" shall we have this dance." I said since i was quite found of the activity.

" i guess why not. I am warning you though that I can't dance." She said smiling.

" then lest start of easy." I said. " put your arms around my neck. While i put my hands around your waist." Once she put her arms around my neck i felt my face feel warm.

" are you blushing?" She said as her beautiful green eyes looked up at me.

" no, it is just unreasonably hot in this room." I said because I didn't want to admit the fact that i was blushing.

Right after I said that Ely drew closer and before i knew it her head was rested on my chest as we were just swaying back and forth.

It was a mix of emotions because it was something i had never felt... The love of a woman and the compassion.
I also felt happy... I was happy with John but this was a different kind if happy.

Sadly it didn't last as long as i hoped.

" he is leaving" I whispered into Ely's ear.

" is it him." She said not moving.

" i think so." I said as i pulled away from her and began to follow the man known as Jim.

We ended up following him to the outback in an ally when i noticed.

" no no no no NO!" I said pacing, the last no causing ely to flinch.

" he stood us up. He is not even here!" I said angry as well.

Then i heard it. A loud boom. I ran down the ally way to the main road to see the London Eye bursted into flames.

" oh my god." Ely said looking in shock.

" we have lost today Sherlock..." She said but I simply blocked the lost out.

She then came up to me and put her hand on my shoulder as I snapped out of my thinking.

" lets get you home... Your shaken up." She said as she soothingly rubbed my arm." Let Lestrade take care of this."

The next thing i knew i was laying on a couch bed contraption.

" you're awake." The voice said.

Ely P.O.V

I walked in to see that he was waking up. He was really shaken up over Jim.

I sat on the edge of the bed facing the other direction of him. I looked over and he looked so innocent with his messy curly hair and beautiful blue eyes. Before i knew it... I was Sherlocked.

I felt a hand crawl on top of mine as i looked down to see Sherlocks fingers laying on mine.

" come closer... Flora."

------ he called her by her real name!! I am hardcore fangirling! I hope you all enjoyed that chapter it was sooo fun to write! Goodnight me friends.-----------------
