Chapter 1

Sherlock sat in his chair waiting for his next client when suddenly the door bell rang. Sitting patiently Sherlock waits until John opens the door, but Sherlock being Sherlock he hadn't noticed that John had went out 3 hours ago. The door bell rang again and Sherlock looked around for John but couldn't see him. Standing up, he smoothed his jacket and fluffed his hair then begun to walk downstairs.

When he got to the bottom of the stairs the door bel rang once more.

"Alright! I'm coming"

As soon as he finished his sentence he opened the door to find a tall, ginger haired woman standing before him.

"And what can I do for you" he said impatiently.

"I've lost a man, a good man, and I need your help"

Sherlock was intrigued and invited her in where he took her upstairs. She sat in Johns chair and Sherlock in he's.

Without either of them saying a word Sherlock was already trying to scan her to see if he could find anything from her.

Within seconds he found nothing about her by the way she was sitting, her facial expressions, her clothes and the way her hands and feet were positioned. This had only happened with one other person before and they ended up falling in love with each other. Knowing this information Sherlock was debating if he should take the case on.

"So do you want to know what happened or not?" Amy said. "Just because you've been sitting there for about 4 minutes not saying anything"

Coughing slight and then finding some words to say "Yes… erm, what was the problem…"

Frowning slightly to him "My friend, he's gone missing"

"And when was the last time you saw him"

Amy thought about the last time she saw the Doctor and she froze slightly. "It must be 3 years, he hasn't answered any of my calls and most strangely he hasn't left any messages… I-I just worry about him"

"I'm sure he's just gone off and soon he'll come back soon" Sherlock stood up. "So goodbye…"

Amy burst out crying.

Sherlock rolled his eyes. "Oh please don't cry! It's very annoying"

"You have to help me, I'll pay you anything" She looked up at him, wiping away the last of her tears.

"It doesn't work like that, I don't like getting payed"

"Fine! I'll give you anything. What do you want?" Amy stood up.

"What I mean is that I don't want anything, I only take on a case if it sounds good"

She steps closer to him "It's a good case really"
