Hi! This is my first story I've published on here, so please read and review! This is dedicated to Tinfoil2010, because it's her birthday tomorrow, and I know how much she loves Sherlock!
Happy Birthday Lovely!
Her Birthday Wish
As Lori blew out the candles on her gorgeous, homemade birthday cake, she wished. Really hard. And wished again as she cut the cake. As she opened her eyes to all of her friends around her grinning away, she heard a loud, sharp knock on the door.
"I'll get it." said her brother, and low murmurs were all that could be heard from the doorway.
"Lori, it's for you." Ted called. She came into the hall, and through the door she saw the most striking man she'd ever laid her eyes upon. He had dark brown, almost black ruffled curls, framing a pale face with high, well defined cheekbones, and icy blue-grey eyes. He was wearing a long black coat which suited him perfectly and was blowing gently in the light breeze outside. Around his neck was wound a dark, navy blue scarf, which contrasted with his delicate, pale pink lips, which looked like the soft inside of rose petals.
"Are you Lori Isabel Stryder?" said a deep, bass voice. My name is Sherlock Holmes, I-"
"I know who you are" she interrupted him. He looked at her as if he was very unused to this kind of thing, then smiled, and swept her up into his arms. He strode down her road, still carrying her, towards the train station at the end of her street.
I will put up the last half (or third, I haven't quite decided yet!) tomorrow, just to make it exciting!
