The clock ticked onto 22:16 just as he knocked on the door.
"It's open," called a voice from inside.
There she sat in the middle of the room. Dr J. Williams, he didn't even know her name.
"So did I get it right?" She asked.
"Urm I'm not sure what you mean, may I sit?" He enquired pointing to the chair opposite.
"Sure," she replied, "And surly you understood, 22:16. I didn't pick it for fun you know. I can't believe you couldn't work that out to say you're the worlds leading detective."
"Ahh, . 221B right? So you worked out the flat I was looking at; and I'm a consulting detective not a detective," he responded slightly annoyed she'd caught him out twice.
"Well I'll share the flat with you. Is that okay?" She asked.
"Urm well you'd have to share a room with me? Plus what's you name, I'm guessing it's not 'J'?" he responded slightly worried.
"It is Jay, short for Jayne. Why'd we have to share? I've seen 221B there's two rooms." Jay replied.
"Some one else came wanting to share this morning and I've already said they can have the other room. I can't turn around now and say no you have to share with me now. Can I?" Sherlock pondered.
"Good point and okay I'll share but only with separate beds. Okay?" Jay decided.
"Fine. Just wondering what is your job? And earlier you said I got something wrong, what was it?" Sherlock asked.
"You should have been able to work it out when I worte on the card. You said I was left handed judging I'm guessing by my watch. Well I am one of those awkward people and I'm right handed: and I'm a consulting therapist, the only in the world you know," Jay happily responded.
"How can you be a 'consulting' therapist?" Sherlock wondered.
"Well I don't get clients that come to me direct, they go to other therapists and if their therapist feels too close to the case or can't handle it they come to me. Make sense?" Jay replied.
"Perfectly," Sherlock answered, "I'm meeting John, the other flatmate, at 221B tomorrow at 1900, will you come?"
"Sure," Jay replied, "Don't forget I need a bed though," she laughed.
