Chapter 4

A diamond is a girls best friend... Or that's at least what my mom always used to tell my dad, after he had gotten his paycheck from work. What I'm trying to say is that Watson actually bought Johanna a silver necklace, or that's what Watson told me her name was, Johanna. After my research, she´s living in the old mansion up the hill, or another way of telling it... Her dad is one of the richest people in hole London, and after what Watson has told me, she was tall, blond and had "Eyes as blue as the ocean when the moon is shining upon it"... Watson came batching in two hours ago, that's when he started to annoy me with all his "Oh she's just so perfect" and " Holmes, promise me that you won't ever meet her and then, Well...By being you, scare her away". It continued until it was time to meet with his date, Johanna, it was like being in heaven, but for me it was like I'd just puked Watson with my violin stick. After he had left I just sad there, all alone in the darkness with only the moon to bright up the room, just sitting in my own thoughts thinking "What if... What if he was speaking the truth, all about me failing in my own game, and what did he mean when he said that I would surrender...Surrender for what and who."

Watson´s point of view

I was on my way to meet my beloved Johanna, (I was going to pick her up) when suddenly I stopped by the gate were if you followed the path you would end up standing by the front door. The reason why I stopped was that i saw a man with roses standing outside her front door, ringing on the door bell. The door was opened and out came her father, he began yelling like crazy, saying she wasn't interested and that he should get the hell off his propriety... I hoped that when he said "she" that he didn't mean Johanna. The stranger left and I was free to go, though I was a bit worried about Johanna´s dad. He was like an angry bulldog watching after the mail-man. I threw myself together and began very slowly to walk. It took me a while to get up to the front door, many thoughts threw around in my mind. I looked at my watch, I was 20 minutes late. I couldn't delay it anymore. I rang on the door bell, sweating like a pig. Again the door was opened by Johanna´s father, he didn´t look very exited on seeing me, but after a minute or two the silence was broken by Johanna. She kissed her dad goodbye, took my hand and left.

"I would like to apologies for my fathers behavior, he´s just trying to keep me safe" Johanna said while starring downwards, like she was ashamed of it.

"I can´t see anything wrong in that your dad´s trying to protect you"

"Don´t take it the wrong way, it...it´s just that, oh, forget it" I stopped, still holding her hand. I lifted her head so I could look her in the eyes.

"Darling, you know that you can tell me anything right?"

"Of cause I know that John. It´s just that everybody is treating me like a kid, like I can´t do anything on my own. I wanna decide who i´m dating, John, I wanna date you, without needing my dad´s permission. I really like you John Watson." She said, while she began smiling. I just smiled back at her, there was no need for words.

I woke up socking wet and with what I think, the worst headache i´v ever had in my entire life. I tried to remember what had happened last night when I was out with Johanna, but I couldn´t. I had a strong bitter taste in my mouth, that would take several days to wash out. My teeth hurt so badly that I couldn´t eat, but the worst thing of them all was when I walked past the mirror in the hallway, that´s when it hit me. I´d been in a fight. What I saw in the mirror was me, with morning hear, swollen lips and a blue eye. I hurried on some cloth and almost jumped out of the door on my way out. Destination: Holmes. I walked in, seeing everything as I left it, even Holmes...or actually he was not sitting in the same position, but in the same place. His leaning chair. I began talking, cause even if he didn´t move or showed any signs on him being awake, or even alive, I knew that he was.

"Holmes, something has happened" I said pointing on my eye.

"I´m sure it´s not as bad as you think" he said turning his head away from the light and into the shadows.

"Holmes, take a look at me and say that i´m fine"

"You´re fine Watson, would you now please let me sleep" he said not even taking a glance at me.

"You have had the hole night to sleep Holmes... Rise and shine" at the same time I ripped the window´s certain to the side, so all of the shadows in the room disappeared.

"Actually no... I was out last night, keeping an eye on you and your precious Johanna, and trust me my friend. You blew it." he finally stood up, but yet with closed eyes. It was first when he stumbled into the same table for the third time In a rove that he finally opened his eyes.

"You did what?... wait so you know what happened last night when I was with Johanna."

"Indeed I do" he said with a I-wanna-have-something-in-return kind of voice.

"Holmes... do you always have to get something in return?"

"I could just tell you, but that wouldn´t be fun"

"Not everything have to be fun Holmes, you know that"

"Watson you know that you aren´t getting any where, just ask me what I wanna have back in return" He said sounding tired of talking.

"Fine...What do you wanna have in return?" of cause Sherlock began smiling.

"You have to arrange a dinner in one of the finest restaurants in hole London"

"For who...i don´t know anyone who would go out and eat with you" He just sat there, smiling because I didn´t get it, but then something clicked.

"Never...Holmes, you are never gonna meet Johanna, you maid well get jousted to the thought"

Sherlock began moving back to his comfy chair, but stopped beside me so we stood shoulder to shoulder.

"Well then I guess you don´t wanna know why you should apologies over for Johanna"
