This is my first time writing Sherlock as I have been reading stories and I`m sick of all the inaccuracies in them regarding the English language and English culture. Being English, I hope to impress you all with the real deal! Haha!

Anyway…onto my first story of Sherlolly set after the Reichenbach Fall but before His Last Vow!

P.S. Obviously I do not own anything Sherlock related, as I would probably die of excitement from meeting Benedict.

Chapter 1: John has an announcement

"Sherlock" whispered John.

"Sherlock" said John.

"SHERLOCK!" John finally yelled due to the absent stare his flat mate possessed while sitting on the sofa.

"Ah John, there you are. Put the kettle on would you? Tea enhances my mind palace" came the smooth voice of the world`s only Consulting Detective, Sherlock Holmes.

"Sherlock, I was trying to tell you that I am here to collect my last few boxes, you know, to move in with Mary. My fiancée was hoping that the Daily Mail wasn't right about the domestic rumours about us." John guessed humour would maybe appease his best friend about his impending departure.

"John, I would never assert that you were bound to Baker Street but I would prefer it if this Mary wasn't removing your immediate services as an assistant to me. Mycroft" he scowled "has suggested that I find a new roommate to 'lessen the blow' of losing you. Ridiculous assumption. As if your current relationship and housing status is offending to me. Where is the tea?" Sherlock looked around to John who was currently shaking his head and filling the kettle up.

"Would you just get to know my future wife, maybe even talk to her now and again? Besides, I think Mycroft has the right idea there mate, I`m sure someone will show up that won`t kill you, plus I will still be your blogger. Mary said it will be good for her to get me out of her hair now and again when we go on cases."

John chuckled as he set the tea down and looked across to a frowning Sherlock.

"No one would want me as roommate John, we barely managed to live together"

John huffed and replied, "You never know"."

Little did the Baker Street Boys know that Dr. Molly Hooper was having issues with her landlord and was given two weeks to move out of her tiny flat due to it being sold.

"Damn you" Molly mumbled as she heaved the boxes into her lounge to begin packing, not knowing where she would live next month. Toby would be a hard sell, as many places didn't allow animals so she was pretty much hopeless in her venture for new housing; sighing she gave up packing and went to sleep in a cold bed.

The next day at Bart`s produced more bodies than normal that needed post mortems and Molly found them all to be routine and ordinary until one rolled up and caused Molly to scream. The body looked exactly like her: brown hair, brown eyes, same build, everything except the lips; those were full, unlike hers. She knew that hers were opposite due to Sherlock`s constant reminder. She calmed down and looked at the body before deciding it was just a coincidence and continued with her job.

A few hours later, a tall figure came swooping into the lab, quickly followed by a short man, Molly was on the phone with her landlord begging for more time to move. With no such luck and a defeated goodbye, Molly trudged into her lab to be met by a piercing blue-eyed gaze and beside that, a big grin.

"Trouble Molly?" asked John as Sherlock made himself comfortable by a microscope and started viewing his samples.

"Yes" groaned Molly, "My landlord has given me two weeks to move and its impossible to find anywhere to take a cat and…"

"Where`s my coffee Molly?" demanded Sherlock

"Get it yourself Sherlock" retorted a very disgruntled Molly.

Molly has never denied you a coffee thought Sherlock the Fall must have affected her more than I previously deduced. Maybe a bit more charm will ease her into coffee-making.

"Well today may be your lucky day Moll, as I am moving in with Mary and Sherlock needs a roommate" John desperately wanted Molly to move in, he knew she could handle the grumpy sod.

After the Fall, Molly had grown a backbone and didn't take Sherlock`s demands and mood swings. She still fumbled sometimes but gone was the mousy Pathologist, in her place was a woman who knew how to handle the man-child; yet underneath there was still that shy Doctor who was in love with the unsociable Detective.

"Um, I…" stuttered Molly.

"Absolutely not" spat Sherlock, who was stirred from his inner ramblings.

"Why not Sherlock? She is available to move in right away and you've known each other for years, plus she is probably better qualified to deal with your experiments than I am." reasoned John.

Sherlock was about to vehemently protest but then he pondered the advantages of having a Pathologist living with him. For one, he could have body parts more frequently, also she is able to deal with the experiments, like John mentioned, but most of all, he wanted to study Doctor Hooper. She was an enigma to him as she had so many different sides to her, he wanted to have her as an experiment for him to study, and think of the tea and coffee he could have without Mrs. Hudson`s "not your housekeeper" comment. As much as he wouldn't admit it, Sherlock felt that Molly would be a comfortable flat mate, someone he knew but also, someone he trusted. She counted, even if she did have an abhorrent cat.

"Actually John, that is a good idea. Molly, you can move in this afternoon if you please, John will be happy to assist you with your boxes." And with that he flew out of the room leaving a gaping Molly and a content John in his wake.

"Be round yours around 5 Molly?" questioned John, knowing what time she would be home from Bart`s.

"Uh, sure…" agreed a frozen Molly, and with that, John left.

Molly couldn't understand why the Detective was so enthusiastic with the prospect of her moving in, especially seeing as he usually put her down with snide comments and lack of respect for her lab. Yet Molly was intrigued as to what he was like at home, was he more relaxed? She was eager to discover the unknown side of Mr. Holmes and with a little more though, decided that her new home would be 221B Baker Street.

So that is the first chapter, I know the whole "Molly moving in " thing has been done but trust me when I say that this is going to have a big twist on it that involves our mousy Molly blooming into something extra special. Also Moriaty will be making an appearance but will it be him? Read on my fellow Sherlockians and soon all will be revealed!
