"I'm afraid not Mr. Holmes." I said with a small smile curving my lips. I walked out the door all the while feeling Holmes eyes on my retreating form. I took Teddy back to our flat and let him run around while I began to unpack. I could hear Ron and Hermione arguing in the kitchen/dining room.
"You two going to keep bickering like an old married couple or are you going to help me unpack like you promise!" I lightly yelled at them from the living room, there was a silence and a unanimous "Sorry" and the sounds of unpacking resumed. It took a few hours to unpack and place the furniture to my liking even with magic for we had interruptions from Mrs. H and John either to give us tea and biscuits for breaks or to invite us out to eat for dinner later on at Anglo even after the awkward dinner date Holmes had blurted out. I had hurriedly agreed to John's invite on almost being caught and asked if Mione and Ron could come if they had time to, which I knew they did, with a charming smile that made sure I got my way and of course it worked. I frowned a little that the smile worked twice on him but not Holmes, I think?
"Ya, of course they can come. The more the merrier right!" John foolishly said while looking around the flat. I raised my eyebrow at him and looked to Hermione, who also had a raised eyebrow and shook her head. I knew that this meant she didn't approve of John, I rolled my eyes at her and was willing to give John another chance to redeem himself.
"I don't believe you've meet my brother or sister, John." I said taking a hold of his hand, walking him in the direction of Ron and Mione.
"Ah…um no, I haven't." he stutter, I turn to look at him and saw he had a light blush on his cheeks, I darkly smirk to myself 'Oh, John, you are a foolish man. What use are you to Holmes?' I stopped in the arch way to the kitchen.
"John, the red head is Ron Weasley, who is my youngest brother and the curly brunette is Hermione Granger, Ron's wife and one of my sisters too."
"It's nice to meet you both, I'm John Watson." John said shaking hands with Ron.
"Pleasure, mate." Ron said and turn to look at Hermione, who rolled her eyes and went back to unpacking. I saw John frowned a bit at this and I knew he would be upset. I was about to say something when Ron opened his mouth,
"Don't worry, mate. Mione just doesn't like the fact she gonna have to share Eiric now." He said putting an arm around Johns shoulder taking him to the livingroom. I smiled at this happy that Ron liked John already and was willing to become friends with him 'Though it's Holmes I'm worried about' thinking to myself. I walked over to Hermione, who was now looking at an empty box with a forlorn expression. I sat on the floor by her and put my head on her shoulder.
"You will always be my best and first friend, Hermione Jean Granger." I whispered to her softly. I hear her breath stutter for a bit.
"Tristyn Eiric Potter, you will always be my best and first friend too, even if you're a bit odd." Her voice breaking in the middle, I gave a soft laugh and sat up bring Mione into my arms to let her cry. When she stopped crying ten minutes later, she went and introduced herself to John. I went to my room to change and to wake Teddy for dinner. I hear John leave to get Holmes and that we were to meet by the front door to the building. We met up twenty minutes later and started walking to the restaurant. Mione and I were up front with Teddy swinging in between us talking while the boys were behind us a few steps with John and Ron talking among the other and with Holmes sulking still from the rejection.
"So, how about Holmes? I think he be perfect for you and Teddy." Hermione said softly and glancing at said mention man.
"Hermione!" I shrieked at her a bit too loudly making the boys turn their heads towards me. I blushed lightly and looked away. 'Is it weird that I could imagine a spit take on that?' I thought to myself with slightly wide eyes. "Hermione!" this time I said it very quietly to her.
"What? It's true, he's very handsome-"
"Yeah and an egotistical jerk as well, who thinks he's god." I remarked rudely while interrupting her.
"Eiric, that's rude to say." She reprimanded me.
"But oh so true, Mione. You haven't even hear him speak yet." I reply with a shrug
"Oh, Eiric." She sighed
"What?" I raised an eyebrow at her
"You need to get back out there into the dating world, have a family!" she exclaimed to me. 'Dating world? Really the best she can come up with is Dating World! I was there and I left cause of ferret face, boy was that a mistake to do.' I gave Mione a look that said 'Crazy' and she gave me a 'Really' look.
"Not now, Mione, I've got time and all I need right now is Teddy." I said with a light smile to the little boy. She sighed again and looked back to the boys, who were whispering to each other even Holmes joined in.
"What do you think their talking about back there?" she asked me
"Probably about their past cases and Holmes is most likely showing off." I answered indifferently to her
