I wake up on a couch, in a messy flat. I know it's not my flat. My leg is bandaged up. My jean leg cut off just above my cut. Next thing I know there is a gun shot. I scream and curl up into a ball.
"ERIS!" I heard some one yell
"J-John?" I asked uncertain.
"BORED" Sherlock yells. That's when I notice my pounding head ache.
"Can I have some pain killers?"
"Yes, Sherlock do we have any pain killers?" John asked
"Maybe in the drawer" he responds
"Wait time an day is it?!?" I say
"May 22 2016, 2:07 why?" John asked
"Shot! I have work Today" I say standing up making my way to the door.
"Let me help you" John says. He helps to my flat I take my jeans off. And change into some leggings I grab some jean shorts and my galaxy sweater, I put on my sweater to see John waiting at my door. I shove on my shorts. And grab my toothbrush and a muffin.
"Need a ride?" John asks
"YES!"
John gets a cab we drive the the Starbucks I work at. I grab my stuff an get to work.
"Hi how can I help you" I asks with a fake smile on.
Time skip
"Eris?" My boss said as I put my stuff away
"Yes?" I asked looking at up at him
"I'm sorry I have to let you go"
"Pardon?"
"Your fired"
I look at him in shock
"But I'm your best worker. You said it yourself. Why?"
"You came in not on your shift. And missed it completely last week" he says
I run out the door. And see John just about to come in. I had tears welling up in my eyes.
"ERIS" he yells across the street
I ignore him and start running just my leg hurts away to much. So I stop and sit on a park bench and cry. My only job, the one that gave me just enough money for my flat. Gone.
"Eris" I deep soft voice says
"Hmmm" i mumble looking to see Jake. My boy friend from high school. We never officially broke up.
"Why are you crying?" He asks sitting down next me as cars whizzed by.
"I got fired from my job" I say looking at my lap. He pulls me into a hug,
"I'm so sorry, how about we go get some ice cream, I'll pay" I looked up at the ginger, and smiled weakly
"Sure" I said as I got up.
Time skip
He was walking me to my house.
"So wait, your in all my classes but never thought to say hi?" I said.
"I know I'm crazy, but how about we study sometime for the big final?"
"How about now. I don't have work and the final is this week"
"Sounds great to me"
We walk up to my flat, when I open the door Sherlock is sitting there.
"SHERLOCK!" I yelled at him I take a deep breath a drop my bag by the door. "What are you doing here?" I asked. He turns to Jake
"Low paying 9-5 job, still lives with his parents hoping to bump in to you Eris, hoping to move in with someone. From the looks of this jacket. He wants someone *eyes me* to hook up with him, correct me if I'm wrong" Sherlock said.
"Uh, that's about right" he said looking at he feet
"How is your leg Eris" Sherlock says
"Out" I say pointing to the door
"Excuse me, I was here to talk about that case"
"After, we are going to study, I'll come to your place" I said still pointing at the door. He peace fully leaves.
"So anyway, do you have your notes?" I asked turning to Jake.
"Yep" he says patting his bag.
After a while if running notes there is a knock on the door.
"Come in " I yell grabbing an ice pack from the freezer. And grab my phone. Mrs Hudson walks in.
"Oh sorry I did not know you had people over" she says turning to walk out.
"No no it's fines come on in" I said
"I just have to make a phone call" I saidI walking into my bedroom as I called Lestrade
L-Lestrade
E-ErisL-hello?
E- hello Lestrade, I had a couple questions about the case you have me
L-oh right! What's up?
E-would I be getting paid, it's no big deal if I'm not. I was going to work with my neighbors, if that's ok, the names are Sherlock Holmes an John Watson.
L-h yes I work with them. And of corse how much would be good 300 pounds?
E-oh yes that is wonderful. Thank you.
L-anything else? And what's your name
E- Eris and not at the moment! Thank you!Beep beep beep. He hung up.
I walk out and put the ice on my leg
"So what do you need Mrs Hudson?" I asked seeing she was talking with Jake.
"I was wondering if you had wanted to join me for tea, but I see your busy" she says standing up.
"I would love too come, only if you don't mind making an extra cup" Jake says
"I would never mind" she said starting to walk down the stairs
I grab the scones I had. And run down to her flat.
"I have scones!" I say walking in.
"Oh hey Eris I have to talk to you" Jake said standing up.
"Can I move in?" He says out of the blue.
"Ok! Anything so I stay in this wonderful place" I answer.
"Mrs Hudson, Jake moving in with me!" I say
"Wonderful!"
After tea we get a can to him place so we can pick up his stuff
