Ariel looked at the doors of 221B Baker Street as she got out of cab. She smiled and knocked on door. Short woman opened door and smiled at the young woman.
"Hello, dear."
Ariel smiled.
"Hello. I'm here for the 221C. You must be Mrs Hudson? We talked over the telephone. I'm Ariel."
Mrs Hudson smiled.
"Yes, dear. I remember. Please, come in."
Ariel smiled and walked in. Mrs Hudson led her towards her apartment.
"Your things came this morning, dear. How are you liking London so far?"
Ariel smiled.
"I haven't seen much but it's beautiful here. And people are quite nice. Speaking of people, when do I get to meet my neighbors?"
Mrs Hudson looked at woman with smile.
"They are just upstairs, you can meet them whenever you want, dear. I need to warn you, Sherlock can be... A bit of a weird but he is very nice."
Ariel smiled and walked into her new home. She looked around and smiled.
"Thank you, Mrs Hudson."
Mrs Hudson nodded and smiled.
"You are welcome, my dear."
Ariel walked up the stairs to meet her new neighbours. She knocked on door and heard a light come in.
She walked in, her boots making small noise. She looked at the man sitting in his chair.
"Hi. I'm Ariel. I just moved down in 221C."
The man smiled and shook her hand.
"I'm John. Nice to meet you."
At that moment a tall, dark haired man walked in. He looked over at Ariel. John smiled at Ariel.
"Sherlock, this is Ariel. She just moved downstairs. And this is Sherlock."
Ariel waved and Sherlock just nodded. He looked at her and suddenly everything was blank. He could decode everyone by just glancing at them but her...
"I can't read you."
Ariel giggled slightly.
"So you are the famous Sherlock Holmes. They warned me about you."
Sherlock let out a frustrated sigh. He walked back into kitchen.
Ariel looked at John and smiled.
"It was nice meeting you, John. I think I'll rest a bit."
John nodded and smiled.
"You too, Ariel."
Before Ariel walked out, she turned to John.
"Afghanistan or Iraq?"
John looked shocked and then sighed.
"Not another Sherlock. Afghanistan."
Ariel nodded and smiled.
"It gets better."
John smiled gently.
"Thank you."
Ariel laid down in bed and sighed. She looked at the picture of her father on her nightstand.
"I miss you."
She turned of the lights and fell into a deep sleep.
