Lazy Gazing
Sherlock and I were walking down a back alley in London. After a thrilling chase of a criminal - we caught him – I waved for a taxi but Sherlock shook his head.
"The air seems to be nice out for a short ride home don't you think John? Why don't we walk?" He suggested. Why down dark deserted alleys, I'm unsure. One thing that I am sure of though, you can actually get a decent view of the stars from here. Maybe it's because it's so dark.
I shoved my hands into my pockets as a slight chill set in. As I was walking I couldn't help but keep gazing up at the sky. The night was clear and I could make out all sorts of familiar constellations.
There was a particular star I was mesmerised by; as I was walking I couldn't stop staring at it. It was the brightest star among the others; maybe it could be a satellite. No, it was too pretty to be a satellite. It defiantly had to be a star. Maybe there were little aliens on it waving down at me and I just couldn't see them because I thought that it's a – BAM!
I was pulled out of my starry daze as my face came full collision with a brick wall. The force knocked me backwards onto my bottom.
I could practically hear Sherlock's smile, wishing that I could wipe it off.
A few seconds passed and Sherlock blew up into a ball of hysterical laughter.
I narrowed my eyes and glared up at him but there was a small smile tugging at my lips. Maybe it was a little bit funny.
After Sherlock calmed down, I realised I felt this small increasing pain on my forehead. I pressed around on forehead and it stung. I made a small, quiet whimper.
Sherlock bent down to inspect the damage. He turned my head this way and that. After examining he grimaced.
"There's only one treatment for terrible wounds like this John." Sherlock said, seriousness in his tone.
He slowly but gently pulled my forehead close to his lips and pressed a small delicate kiss to my graze. When he pulled back he smiled and said.
"Feeling better now doctor?" I looked up into his face and couldn't help but return his smile.
"Much."
