Day 4: Going on a date!
Sherlock was playing violin and idly staring at the window when he spun around looking at John, who was sitting in his chair and reading a book. "John" Sherlock begun "Have you ever been ice skating?" "hm?" John mumbled "Ice skating John, have you ever been?" Sherlock repeated. "Not involving a sport, no I haven't" John replied now interested in the conversation "Why?" He asked. "Neither have I, but I would like too. Lets go tonight?" Sherlock questioned. Sherlock began to worry that what he said was a mistake when John hadn't answered quick but instead his brow furrowed as he thought. John sat for a moment, god it had been years since he last was on Ice, well, why not? It would be fun.
"Sure" John finally smiled "Why not?" Sherlock grinned and mumbled "So, it's a date then." picking back up his violin and beginning to play again. As five o'clock began to roll around, John and Sherlock both put their coats on and headed out the door. Although they were already a couple, this was their first real date. Sherlock couldn't get the stupid butterflies out of his stomach, had ice skating been the wrong choice? What if John thought it was stupid? This was their first date, it was important that Sherlock got it right. All of Sherlock's doubts were pushed away when he saw John eagerly putting on his Ice skates once they had arrived at the skating rink. John looked ecstatic! Maybe this had actually been a great plan.
John and Sherlock both finished lacing their skates up and begun to step out onto the ice. John instantly remembered days from his youth when he use to play hockey, and all of the steps instantly flowed back into his mind. John glided off doing a few practice laps before meeting back with Sherlock, who was death gripping the railing. "I thought you said you have never been Ice skating!" Sherlock accused. "I said I had never been ice skating outside of a sport! I use to play hockey Sherlock, and I can see that you have never been on the ice have you?" John laughed looking at Sherlock desperately trying to balance himself. "I must admit" Sherlock mumbled almost falling back "This is much trickier than I imagined." "Here" John smiled "Let me help you." John grabbed Sherlock's hand and begun leading him away from the railing.
Sherlock instantly started to wave his arms around in a panic a bit before John gripped Sherlock's hand tightly and whispered "Trust me Sherlock, I got you." John began skating a little faster holding Sherlock's hand and guiding him along as they went around in circles. Finally, getting the hang of it, Sherlock begun to match Johns pace even racing ahead of him a bit. All of course, still while holding hands. Sherlock smiled gaining confidence and broke away from John darting ahead of him. "This is easy!" Sherlock yelled taunting "Catch me if you can John" He smiled darting away. This, this was a challenge John knew he would be able to beat, John was amazing at ice skating.
John begun to chase after Sherlock darting through groups of people, when next thing he knew both him and Sherlock were lying on the Ice. Johns hands were on the ice and Sherlock was below him. Both of them broke into a fit of laughter before John leaned in close to Sherlock and whispered in his ear "Caught you."
