*Sherlocks point of view*
"Now that we're done, go get dressed. We have to go somewhere today." I sent her off as she went to actually get clothes on.
"What ever you say Mr. Bossy!" She winked at me as she began to wonder off into her room. I began cleaning up just thinking of how today would go, I was going introduce Irene to Mary today. If I was going to date her, I needed John and Mary's approval and I already knew I had John's. I wasn't really cleaning while thinking, I was just putting the dishes in the sink. Once I finished that, I went and sat on the couch while I waited for her to finish getting ready.
"Sherlock. I'm ready. I hope you didn't want me to dress up cause I'm not really dressed up." Walking out of the room she was finishing buttoning up her shirt. I examined what she was wearing, it was fine. She looked beautiful, as always.
"You look fine. It'll do. Put your coat on and we'll go." I walked towards where our coats were hanging and past her hers as I put mine on. Once both of our coats were on I grabbed her hand and we walked out the door to the street.
"Where are we going exactly?" She questioned.
"We are going to my house."
"Your house? Why? Should I have packed and overnight bag?"
"Yes my house, there are people you have to meet, and that may or may not be nessasary." If everything went well with her meeting Mary, then she could stay. If not, she couldn't stay. I don't want conflict.
"May or may not? What does that mean?" I didn't want to inform her, and luckily there was an interruption, we were already here.
"221b. We're here." I could tell she was nervous because her grip got tighter and tighter. "Don't be nervous, just be yourself and everything will go fine." She nodded and we walked in.
Walking up the stairs I could hear voices, voices that weren't John and Mary's. Voices that were familiar. We made it to the top of the steps when I realized who's voice it was, it was my parents.
"Ok, no ones seen us, let's just walk back to your flat. There are people here I don't want you to meet." I whispered to her. We turned around when a voice interrupted us.
"Ah! Look! Sherlock has come! Come Sherlock, mom and dad are here." Mycrofts voice filled the entire flat, and I've never wanted to punch him as much as I did now.
"Your parents? You don't want me to meet your parents?" Mycrofts face brightened, he was going to have fun with this.
"If it was my choice I wouldn't want anyone to meet my parents, but I guess there's no choice anymore." I rolled my eyes at Mycroft and proceeded up the stairs. John and Mary were there too, which made things a little better.
"Sherlock! You are here!" Right as my mothers eyes saw me she got up to hug me. As she walked towards me I didn't let go of Irene's hand. "Sherlock, who is this?" Before she hugged me she stopped herself laying her eyes on Irene.
"This is Irene mother. Now you two can leave." My mothers face brightened when I said her name.
"Irene! I've always loved the name Irene! It's nice to meet you very nice to-. You're holding hands! Sherlock has a lady friend!"
"Mother, stop it." My mother grabbed her away from me and pulled her towards my father. She turned and looked at me and I mouthed the words 'see.' Irene just smiled and continued to walk. Today was going to be an interesting day.
