Sherlock and John were out having a bite to eat one afternoon and John had made the mistake of trying to teach Sherlock the basics of the solar system.

"Alright let's start from the beginning. There are nine planets-"

"Wrong," Sherlock cut him off. "Eight. There's eight planets."

"What? No. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto."

"Pluto is not a planet."

John groaned. "Oh God. Are we really going to have this debate right now? I was just telling you what the schools tell the children."

"Well they are teaching them wrong. Wouldn't be the first time." Sherlock added the last part under his breath.

John could just picture a young Sherlock fighting with his teacher over whether the information was right or wrong. "Okay fine. Jupiter is the largest one-"

"Saturn is."

John's fists clenched under the table. "Saturn is only the largest if you count it's rings."

"They aren't actually rings."

"That is the proper term for them!"

"No, that is the common term. The proper term is-"

John threw his hands up in defeat. "You know what. Forget it. I give up. Let's talk about something else."

"So how is the new girlfriend?"

"How did you-?"

"Simple." Sherlock smirked. He loved to show off. "I saw you two outside the bookstore together. She-"

A sudden voice from to the left cut him off. "John Watson?"

John put down his fork and saw two large men standing by their table. "Yes?"

"Stand up and put your hands behind your back," the man standing closest to him ordered, fishing out his handcuffs.

"What's going on?" John asked, standing up.

"You are under arrest for murder," the man answered, cuffing him.

"You've got to be joking!"

Sherlock stood up. "There has to be some mistake. You have the wrong man."

"Fingerprints and DNA don't lie," the man growled.

"Sherlock?" John was getting dragged to a nearby car. "Sherlock!"

"John don't panic! I'll call Lestrade! We'll get everything sorted out. I promise." Sherlock had barely finished his sentence when John was thrown in the back of the car and hauled away.
