Disclaimer: I own nothing of Sherlock BBC
Molly Hooper turned around and jumped when she saw Sherlock Holmes looking at her by the doorway. "Sherlock, what are you doing here? Looking for John? John and Mary went out for a date. I'm babysitting Stella for them." She hastily wiped away the lone tear trickling down her cheek, looking away. She was not worried that she would just blurt out the truth to him right here and then. It's just that she would hate to lie to him; she never did and did not plan to break that pattern. The silence was further enlarged when Sherlock did not reply her, staring at her still.
Molly continued her one sided conversation, "Its Stella's bedtime now. I need to put her to sleep." and went up the stairs, not even bothering to wait for his reply, if he was planning to. Just then, John and Mary came back, "Sherlock, coming to see your goddaughter?" "Yes and now you two are back, Molly and I are off then. Good night. "Sherlock grabbed Molly's arm and saw out themselves. Molly followed without a word as usual. The two walked side by side quietly.
Because I know what it means, looking sad when you think no one can see you.
"Just now when you were carrying Stella, you were crying…"
You can see me
"Oh, it was nothing."
I don't count
"Could you give this to Mycroft? Please"
Sherlock took it but did not question her any further.
You do count. You've always counted and I've always trusted you but you were right. I'm not okay
One thing she learnt was that in life there are many things beyond one's control and all the more we must control what we can.
Tell me what's wrong
Call her cruel but Molly intended for Sherlock to be the first person to see her dead.
I think I'm going to die
She knew he will kick start the whole plan nicely.
What do you need?
She did plan the whole thing herself; there is no room for errors. Everything has to go perfectly.
You
Sherlock phoned for an ambulance but he knew it was too late. Molly Hooper was already dead.
Author's note: Wow, never I would imagine that I would be able to call myself 'author' but I guess that's the benefit of publish my own story!
This is my very first story and somehow I found the balls to published it online so if you find my work not good enough, I'll apologise in advance and of course, feedback and review are extremely welcome so to make my writing skills better :D
People have extreme thoughts of Molly Hooper in Sherlock BBC, some love her to bits and some just don't like her, saying she's just plain sad, having such a pathetic crush on Sherlock etc. etc. I respect that everyone's opinions but I, for one very much like this character even though I killed her in the first chapter
To me, she's loyal, brave (she faked an autopsy report, for goodness sake. That must be illegal or something like that), smart (Sherlock asked her to solve crimes with him, come on!) and loving (she obviously saw something in Sherlock under the rude, cocky and sometimes not really likable personality of his). I will stop now if not this will seem like I'm confessing to Molly, lol (see? I'm even calling her on first name basis...)
