Remember Me?- RobinGraayson
It had been three days since Sophie was released from the Medical Branch at MI6 and Grace clenched her teeth anytime it was brought up. Sophie found this a bit funny, but didn’t push it. The woman probably had enough going on.
Since Richard had last seen Sophie, her mother moved to Cardiff, she moved in with John and Sherlock, and befriended a Double-Agent who treated her like a niece, or sometimes even a daughter. Grace was staying over at 221B and anytime there was a “family” meal, both her and John would constantly command the girl to do things like a small child.
Drink some water.
Eat your vegetables. Trust me, you need them.
Sophie, napkin. Honestly.
Why don’t you go wash up and then we can watch a film, ay?
As her quasi-parents cleaned up the table, a somewhat hurried knock appeared at the door. Sophie walked across the living and opened it to find a quite nice looking boy with dark hair on the other side. “Yes, can I help you?” She asked.
“Sophie! You’re all right,” he said with a smile, but he quickly noticed his girlfriend held no recognition of him. She seemed confused and he dropped his hand to his side that had knocked on the door. John had never told him the extent of what happened to her but he was starting to piece it together.. memory loss. He kept smiling, though it faultered for a moment. He thought for a second before putting his hand out. “My name is Richard, I’m a friend of John’s” he said waiting for her to shake his hand. he didn’t want to scare her and he hoped the american accent would worry her. A strange American boy at her doorstep? Well it was better then a strange American boy claiming to be her boyfriend. Hopefully she didn’t slam it and walk away.
“Oh, um… Hello.” Sophie smiled shyly as her cheeks blushed red. “Sophie, who’s at the-…” John had gotten up and walked to her side. “door?”
Richard smiled at John nervously. "Hey John," he stuttered out hoping he would latch on to where he was going. "I thought I would stop in for a visit, I.. uhm didn't know you had company" he said letting his hand that he had held out for her to shake down. She wasn't looking like she was going to return his notion. He stuffed his hands in his pockets of his jacket and licked his lips nervously.
