I woke up in a sterilized hospital bed. An ominous beep in the background. I tried to sit up but it hurt to move. My chest filled with pain. Sherlock ran in doctors trying to stop him

"Oh thank god your okay." He said. Was, was he crying? From what John told me he was Sherlock Holmes king of no emotion and no feelings. Why was he crying? He held my hand. My heart raced. I was in an all-too-familiar place.

"Why am I in the hospital? What happened?" I croaked. He kissed my knuckles.

"I'm sorry I couldn't stop him. He shot you. It was too close I thought I would have lost you."

She looked at him with extreme confusion. She pulled her hands away "Why do you care?" He looked hurt.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean why do you mister king of no emotions. Care about a girl with such mental problems like me. I'm just a bloody freak!"

He grabbed my hands. "Because. I was a freak too. Being able to deduce at a young age made it so no one would like me."

"At least you weren't a murderer at age 8"

"What?" He asked.

"I killed my parents and my siblings on my 8th birthday. I stabbed them all according to their ages. 34, 40, 17, 12, and 2" I didn't dare look up

"How did you not get caught?"

"I suffered from night terrors and there was no way I would have known my parents ages."

"Then why weren't you taken in? By other family members?"

"I have non. I'm all alone in this world."

"Not anymore." He hugged me.

"What?" I pushed him away.

"Your no longer alone. We can be alone together." He said. "I promise."
