That Holmes Girl: 5 Stages
London, England 1994
Hospital
A 16 year old boy holds his child for the first time. Though he was young he fully intended on caring for the tiny child. The Child was raven haired like himself, and was bound to be tall. If Sherlock Holmes had anything to say about it his child would be destined for greatness. He turned to the woman in the bed, knowing that they had both been in the wrong, he couldn't be angry with her though.
It hadn't been a relationship it had merely been sex…mind you she had been his teacher at the time. He smiled sadly to her "Would you like to hold her Janine?" The woman shook her head "It's best I don't Sherl." He frowned suddenly extremely upset about the situation he found himself in "I don't understand why they are all angry. It was just sex!" Janine chuckled "It's less about the sex and more that I'm an adult and your teacher."
Sherlock nodded but was still confused by it all "Oh, I see so you mean that It's a morality thing?" the woman smiled "Exactly Sherl. You take care of our girl." He nodded as a nurse came in taking the baby away to be fed. Janine looked to Sherlock and smiled sadly "Go on now Sherl. You need to learn how to do this stuff. Take care of her and do your best to be a good dad for her. The boy nodded "Of course Janine." He said as he raced off to learn how to care for his child.
While he was feeding her his best friend John Watson came by to see the little girl. He smiled down at the child in his friend's arms "She's beautiful Sherlock. Have you thought of a name yet?" Sherlock sighed heavily "No, haven't had a chance. You know with court and all." John nodded and put a hand on his friend's shoulder "Well, how about Jessica or Tara? Something like that."
He asked really seriously trying to help his friend name the little girl, he chuckled as Sherlock wrinkled his nose and shook his head "Ok" John replied "How about Shirley then?" Sherlock glared at a now snickering John "You know John, you're really not helping." John cleared his throat trying to stave off his laughter "I was joking Sherlock. What about something like Arden or Ashton?" Sherlock's eyes brightened as he nodded "Yes! That's it! Ashton Sherlock Leigh Holmes." John smiled at his friend "It suits her Sherlock."
