"It has been two weeks since Mycroft has talked to me." Sherlock commented and to John it seemed a bit random for they were in the middle of a case.
"Your brother is a busy man. You said so yourself that he is the government." John said to him and Sherlock gave him a look.
"He is still upset that I leaked important information out to the woman." Sherlock stated in an irritated voice. "Honestly, It is not my fault that he kept in the dark about it. If he had not kept me in the dark then I would not have told the woman and it is really Mycroft's fault."
"So it is your brother's fault?"
"Of course and I have not had an interesting case in weeks! It is his fault that there have been no interesting cases for he must have solved them already!" Sherlock said loudly, he took a deep breath, and slowly released it. "Sorry about that John, but as you can see I'm frustrated."
"I can see that Sherlock." John stated and he shook his head. "Maybe you should do something to take your mind off your brother and lack of cases. Also you have not had a cigarette for about two hours. Maybe horse back riding might take your mind off of things?"
"I do not like horses." Sherlock informed him and John gave him a look. "What? I do not like them and I would not want to ride on them either."
"You are impossible, Sherlock."
"Thank you, John."
"It was not compliment."
"Mycroft must be keeping all of the interesting cases or something." Sherlock muttered while pacing around and he was frowning to himself.
"Sherlock, I doubt your brother would do that...Would he?"
"Not to mention he gave me a cigarette! A cigarette! Oh, John I bet he was testing me to see if I could say no to having a cigarette. Of course I didn't say no to that blasted offering of a cigarette!" Sherlock was pacing around and he moved his right hand through his hair. "I'm such a bloody fool."
"Sherlock, Here is a package from your brother." Mrs. Hudson commented calmly as she handed him the package.
"Oh a package. Is it full of tempting cigarettes?" Sherlock asked as he ripped it open and after a moment of staring said in a voice full of disbelief. "Lollipops? He sent me an entire box full of colorful lollipops."
"There is a letter too." Mrs. Hudson informed him. Sherlock silently read it, dropped it, and stormed off. John picked it up and Mrs. Hudson decided to walk away.
Dear Baby Brother, I filled the box up with lollipops. I have heard having a lollipop is just like smoking expect there is no smoke of course and do make sure not to have all of these lolly's in the same day for that would be bad for your teeth. Best Wishs From Your Older Brother, M.
A couple of hours later Sherlock returned and informed John that he has told everyone that sells cigarettes not to sell him any along with paying some people off.
"My brother shall not win mark my words, John! I have informed everyone that lives within two miles not to sell me any no matter what along with paying some people off by using Mycroft's credit card." Sherlock said loudly, his right fist was up in the air, and he is very determined to stop smoking.
"Of course, Sherlock." John commented dryly and to be honest he has a feeling that Mycroft will end up winning no mattter the outcome. "What are you going to do with the lollipops?"
"Perform experiments on them." Sherlock told him, he grabbed several of them, and then he briefly looked at John. "If you want some of these it would be best to get them now."
