Chapter 15: I used to Love

Sherlock

"Sherlock, this is Lisa. Lisa, Sherlock."

Sherlock looked at the tall, brown haired girl with a smile while he deduced everything to know about her.

Daughter of a single mother, father left them when she was three. Loves to horseback ride, plays the piano and sings, but is unable to reach high notes.

"Nice to meet you Sherlock," She said with a dainty smile.

"Shall we get going?" Peter asked, smiling at John.

"Let's go." John held Peter's hand, which made Sherlock frown.

"Are they dating?" Sherlock asked Lisa.

"I'm not sure. But they've been like that," Lisa told him.

"Ever since when?" Sherlock inquired.

"Two days ago? I heard they were fighting, then they made up with a... bed scene?"

"Are you two talking about those two love birds?" Joshua suddenly interrupted.

"Obviously," Sherlock said.

"Peter doesn't have a roommate so it's possible they had sex," Joshua informed the two. "Though I imagine one of them would be limping. I mean, getting fu-"

"Shut up! I don't need to hear that," Lisa said.

"Just you wait, Lisa. One day, I'll be doing-"

"Ugh! C'mon, Sherlock! Let's leave that pervert!" She pulled him away to the car.

"I was just joking! Lisa! Please?" Joshua whined.

"You might want to talk to him. He looks sad," Sherlock said.

"Of course. He has a crush on me. It's so obvious. But I like playing with him," Lisa said. "Making him jealous, it's like a test to see if he'll really wait for me."

"Really? But it looks like he's been waiting long enough," Sherlock said.

Lisa looked at Joshua and her face softened.

"I guess you're right. Maybe he does love me," Lisa said. "Maybe it's time."

Sherlock nodded and got into the car, sat down next to a window and thought about what Lisa had said.

He glanced at John and Peter who looked like they were flirting, yet Peter looked slightly uncomfortable.

Lisa sat beside him and Joshua next her.

The car ride was noisy and fun, but Sherlock felt displaced among the two pairs of couples. They all flirted, which made him wonder why he had even bothered to come. It wasn't like he was really a part of their group.

"Hey! All of us are couples- Lisa, Joshua; don't give me that face- except you, Sherlock!" Peter said. "Have anyone special?"

"No. I don't even what love is," Sherlock replied.

"Well, love is... uhm... someone help me out please?" Peter looked around the car, hoping someone would answer the question for him.

"There are different kinds of love and everyone reacts differently to it. But I think love is cruel," Lisa said.

"Love is beautiful. But you get hurt. And even if you get hurt," John said. "You still do it, because you do stupid things for the person you love."

"Amen to that," Joshua said.

"Well, that is true. I used to love, but I prefer to forget what happened between me and that person." Sherlock smiled a bit. "And I did many stupid things for that person."
