This is dedicated to my best friend and aka the hardcore Sherlock fan. I hope she likes it,

John and his new girlfriend stopped before they reached the front door.
"Everything ok?" she asked him.
"Yeah, I just need to say that my roommate, he's … a bit …odd."
"I'm sure it'll be fine" She smiled at him
"I hope so" he said under his breath as he put they keys in the door. She looked at the letters, nailed into the door, 221B.
They walked up the stairs, hand in hand, John leading the way. All of a sudden, they heard a bang.
"What was that? She asked him, seemingly worried. He said nothing, but continued to lead her through the door.
"Hi Sherlock" he sighed, leading his girlfriend in.
"Why hello", Sherlock said, barely looking at them. He continued shooting at the wall with his gun. John turned toward her,
"Don't worry, this happens a lot." He told her, she was still slightly in shock. He turned back towards Sherlock. "Sherlock, this is…"
He got interrupted by Sherlock "Cassandra, hello." He said while giving her a half smile. And moving over to the table and started looking through John's computer.
"How did you know her name? I haven't told you it yet."
"For the past two weeks, your phone has been flooded with messages from the name Cassie now that could either be short for Cassandra or a striper name. And I was hoping you would have more sense than to go out with a stripper."
Cassandra smiled at this, she had never met someone so obnoxious who did not even realize it. "How do you know I'm not a stripper?" she asked jokingly.
"Please, you've never set foot in a strip club in your life." He said, while still looking at the computer screen. "Oh and how was the last Erticon?" he added.
"How do you know that I went to Erticon?"
"Anyone who checked your Facebook would know you went to Erticon. You seem to be a Cosplayer."
"You checked my Facebook?" she asked him
"I was checking to make sure you weren't a stripper." He told her. Cassandra laughed, she was new to this world, this world of deduction.
"Where are you from let me guess Bulgaria?"
"Yeah, Bulgarian and Dutch, how did you guess that, my eyebrows or something?" she asked jokingly.
"Hardly, your surname, its hardly English is it."
"Wow, you are amazing" she exclaimed.
"That's what I said!" John said, coming back into the conversation.
"Oh be quiet John" Sherlock blurted out.
"But I…" John was once again interrupted by Sherlock.
"Shut up John!" he exclaimed, "Cassandra, would you like a cup of tea?" he asked her
"Yeah sure" she smiled
"Great" he smiled back, "Kitchen's right through there" he said, pointing towards the kitchen. Cassandra made her way over there, while John went and sat down in the armchair.
"Are those eyeballs in the microwave?" she asked, very confused.
"Its an experiment!" he told her, barely flinching.
"Right, I think that's enough of creeping out my girlfriend for one day" John butted in. He stood up from the chair. "Come on, we should probably go, we don't want to miss our movie." He said heading towards the door.
"Bye Sherlock, see some other time" Cassandra said while grabbing her coat.
As they exited the apartment, Cassandra turned around to John, "He's a very… interesting character!" she told him.
"You don't know the least of it." He told her. She laughed as they walked away towards the cinema.
"Anyway, what movie are we seeing?" she asked him.
"I believe there's one with Martin Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch in it, watcha think?"
"Sounds like a plan" she replied.
