Watolock #8 (Date Attempt Part 1)
It is an ordinary day, nice weather, not too hot and not too cold, but not for Sherlock, this is her first attempt on having a date. Sherlock couldn't understand, why does couple need a date when you can be happy just watching your girlfriend cleaning your mess and fix your foods or running to a crime scene one after another or solving a case or barging into someone home without or with permission, technically with your girlfreind, wait isn't that a date? Yes for her and not for Wato. She sighed.
"Sherlock, lets go for a date!" Wato is so giddy, how can she refuse this adorable woman's request, with a clear crystal eyes, bright smile and a wide one, she feels her stomach stirs a rainbow looking at her deep dimples decorating her smile. Damn, she is outragously adorable. It is true, its been a month since they established their relationship and haven't go anywhere together, alone, except home, but then if it meant to make Wato happy, she is willingly to sacrifice her social and logical insecurity for her. She close her eyes, arguing with her brain for this ridiculous thing while her heart want to make her girl happy. "When and where?" Heart wins.
Amusement park. This is the worst scenario she could ever imagine, noise, people, kids, scream..this is ridiculous. "This is ridiculous" Sherlock pout, her head is already dizzy "Come on..its fun!" Then Wato drag her to the Roller Coaster section, uh.. Why does people ride this thing when all they do is scream and it ended up with Wato screaming next to her, so close to her like her ear drums could burst, gripping her like her wrist could break in anytime, she did all through the ride. After the ride, Wato could barely stand with Sherlock infront of her, crossing her arms "I told you, its not fun" She said with unconcern tone, Wato sighed, I want to be hold right now, but Sherlock only stand, watching Wato who are already in pale. "Wait" Sherlock give her a bottle of water. She take a sip, a little bit frustrated as Sherlock doesn't seems to care about her condition, all she did is nag and pout and complain. She took Sherlock hand and drag her to another game corner "I want that doll" She point a big brown fluffy teddy bear. Sherlock rolls her eyes and sighed, she did 6 tries and ended up nothing, she's supposed to throw darts on the card but it ended up with one of them flew nearly straight to the person who are incharge of this game, looking at Wato's expression, sour. She feels bad, this date is bad, it is definitely turned wrong. They try one game after another, fail fail fail, the result is bad, definitely bad as Wato's dissapointment. She want to hold Wato's close, but somehow she couldn't and she feels stupid.
"Lets go home" Wato voice weakly, Sherlock know she should fix this mess, think think think! Then its raining, suddenly, seriously?! At this crucial time?! Fuckk.. Sherlock swears but only echoed in her head. She immediately took off her coat and shade Wato, Wato hug herself, cold. They are actually in the middle of their way back home, how ironicly the nice weather turned into an outbursting heavy rain. Sherlock drags Wato, still shading her using her coat, she found a large trees beside the path and decided to take shelter under it. Wato is still sour, plus its raining and cold. I am the worst girlfriend. They stood in silence, Sherlock try to think how to clean this mess, how to make up this disasterous date, while Wato, she already trembling and freezing, Sherlock awares and the guilty inside her is puking out, oh god damn Sherlock, why are you insisting to hold her? She is your girlfriend, you don't put your selfish and ego on top of your responsibility to protect her! She talk to herself again, she take Wato's hands and wrap them around her own body and shade her with her coat, this is..pleasant, she finds a small curl on Wato's face. "Im sorry, Im such a jerk" Sherlock breaks the silence. Wato shakes her head "Its okay, I understand" short respond from Wato. "Are you mad?" Sherlock glance at Wato's face "No, I understand.. You are not used to this kind of thing, though I was actually hope you could care about me more, and hold my hand, buy me foods and win me some doll" Wato voiced out, Sherlock sighed heavily, how stupid I am, she's trully feels guilty, their first date should be more fun and sweet and romantic. She cups Wato's cheeks, stare at those clear eyes, those eyes could reflect stars, her heart ache remembering how excited this woman about this day, their first date, I should have been better, I should have hold her hands, take photos, buy foods, having fun on every game instead of complaining about every logic that could be relied on it, she should have took Wato to ride the ferris wheel just like her mom, she remember about it as her mom brought her to the place when she was a kid, caprivated by the sunset and her mom smile, she miss the warmth of the memory. She actually want to bring Wato and shares her memory but then, it shattered when Sherlock sees Wato's gloomy face, when she ask to go home "Im sorry, I still feel a little uncomfortable about sharing my personal space, or being affectionate, I know this is not an excuse..but I... I promise I will do better next time, Im gonna take you on a wonderful date" Sherlock promise is gentle and reliable as her eyes, Wato wraps her hands around Sherlock tighter and Sherlock does the same then put a gentle deep kiss on Wato's eyebrows. "I love you Wato" her voice is sincere, the rain had stopped a few minutes ago but Sherlock decided to seize this moment, feeling Wato, loving Wato, give and take all of it, share the warmth Wato longed in this date, indeed, it is worth of it.
"Lets go home" she kissed Wato's forehead. "okay" Giddy Wato, its look like she restored her girlfriend. She take Wato's hand and interwined their fingers, Wato flushed, how wonderful her girfriend is, how lucky is she to have a wonderful girlfriend, wonderful Wato, god..do I want someone better than her?. "From now on, my personal space is also my girlfriend's personal space" She declared, made Wato's grip tighter, her heart flutter in happinness. This is all what she wanted, this is all it takes to make up for her gloomy date but then.. this is not a bad date after all.
