The Shadow (on hold)

4

I wake up about 7 and get ready. I shower and wash my leaving before drying it. I leave it downa nd wavey. I put on black tight jeans and a see through top. I put on my boots and grab my things befor locking up and heading down to the cafe.

I see Sherlock and sit next to him. He tenses slighlty as he looks at my outfit. "Morning."

"Morning Sherlock, where are the others?"

"John is waiting for Jade, who wouldn't get up this morning."

I laugh, "so it's just us for now."

"yes."

I lean over and whisper, "good." I kiss his cheek and move his arm around me.

"What are you doing?"

"getting comfortable and I know you are comfortable." He doesn't argue with me or deny it. He just smirks. I feel his fingers moving against my side, rubbing gently. It feels electric and so nice but I don't tell him that. I don't even know if he is doing it knowingly.

Finally Jade and John show up. Sherlock doesn't move his arm from me and it gets us two curious looks.

John knows what I want so goes and orders. Jade says, "so are you two finally together."

I say, "no."

Sherlock laughs, "definitely not."

Jade says, "sure."

I roll my eyes and lean against Sherlock. He doesn't seem to mind and he is so comfortable to lean on. Jade raises her eyebrows and I roll my eyes. John comes back with drinks and looks at us confused but smiling.

Jade says, "they aren't together."

John sits down and says, "really? From the way they are now and last night. So when are you finally going to get together?"

"Were not." They all look at me, even Sherlock. "I told you. I don't do commitment or relationships."

John asks, "why not?"

"I just don't and with my line of work. It will just confuse things."

Sherlock says, "there is more but you won't tell us."

"Let it go."

"Just tell us." Sherlock insists.

"It's nothing. I told you it will confuse and complicate things."

The food arrives and John ordered two bacon sandwiches. I take hand of one and pass Sherlock the other half. He takes it and Jade looks at me amazed. Sherlock still doesn't take his arm off me.
