there was a moment of silence as the three of them absorbed what Casey had just said to Alistair. They watched her walk inside and for a moment Lulu and Ryan looked back and fourth from Alistair to the doorway Casey had just gone through. Eventually Ryan decided to break the silence.<br/>'All right! Alistair just made out with Casey!' He cheered and chuckled as Lulu punched him in the arm.<br/>'Ryan don't be mean Alistairs going to be really confused now!' She hissed but couldn't help but let a sly smile break out over her face as she looked at Alistair.<br/>'You two knew?' Alistair asked, his cheeks burning and eyes firmly fixed to the ground as he scratched the back of his head.<br/>'Of course we did. You would have to be dumb, deaf and blind not to be able to sense that Casey was into you.' Ryan muttered and rubbed the patch of his arm that Lulu had just hit.<br/>'What am I supposed to do?' Alistair asked and looked at them both pleadingly, 'I've never really...you know...thought about girls like that.'<br/>'You don't have to tell me twice.' Lulu muttered and rolled her eyes before getting up off the pavement and handing Alistair a can of soda. She gave him a small sympathetic smile and patted him on the shoulder, 'Just go with it. Be honest with her and tell her that you're not sure how you feel and spend some more time with her. Just see how things play out.'<br/>'Or alternatively you could go upstairs now and hop in the shower with her.' Ryan teased before letting out a yelp as Lulu threw her can of soda off Ryan's head.<br/>'No don't do that. She's not a piece of meat.' Lulu snapped at Alistair, which confused him more because he was sure Ryan had been the one to say the inappropriate comment.<br/>'But Lulu I...Sherlock never-' Alistair began.<br/>'You're not Sherlock and I'm not Alice. We're just incarnations of the characters, they don't define us. You can love if you want Alistair.' She said before smiling and wrapping an arm around his shoulder before leading him towards Casey's house, 'Come on lets go put a movie on. Something dumb but funny to keep you from thinking too hard...like finding nemo!'<br/>'Nemo? You mean the science pirate who was captain of the Nautilus from two thousand leagues under the sea?' Alistair asked as they walked through the door way with Ryan following them whilst nursing a large bump on his head.<br/>'No the CGI fish that gets lost.' Ryan groaned as he shut the door behind them, 'God help this one Lulu. He takes everything too damn seriously.'<br/><br/><div align="center"><strong><span class="bbc_u">A few minutes later</span></strong></div><br/>Casey had found the three of them spread out in front of the television watching computer generated fish crack jokes and swim a lot. Lulu lay on her stomach in front of the tv, she seemed to find the whole thing rather entertaining. Ryan on the other hand was sat on the corner of one of the sofas clutching his head in between his hands. It was clear that he would rather be watching something with naked human girls and a lot of raunchy scenes. Alistair just stared at the pocket watch that he held in his right hand. He was sat in an arm chair chewing on a stick gum with his mobile phone balanced on the left arm of the chair.<br/>When she entered the room and asked her question all three of them turned in her direction and stared at her as if she were some sort of saint.<br/>'Yes please' Lulu spoke.<br/>'God yes' Ryan growled.<br/>'More than anything in this world.' Alistair spoke and for a moment seemed to gaze at Casey. As if studying her just a little more closely. Hopefully she wouldn't notice.
