Title: Note
Author: Asagi Tsuki
Pairing: hint of Sherlock/John if you squint
Warning: none
A/N: today's prompt is 'note'. I had to cut down almost 100 words from the end product. Removed a point entirely, then deleted a lot of details. Some sentences become compromised because of the word limit, but I do try to keep the important ones as they are T_T I've never thought that writing with a word limit would be so hard.
For those who read my Father Brown universe, I'll try to post 'The Flying Stars', the third instalment, soon =)
Note
Whoever said knew no one with worse mood swings than a pregnant woman clearly hadn't met Sherlock. The man went from indifferent to sulky in a matter of minutes, and if that wasn't impressive yet, try putting indignant, offended, and flattered in-between.
He was in the kitchen finishing up an experiment when John approached him and demanded Sherlock to clean up the mould growing on the bathroom window. The taller man indignantly pointed out that it wasn't one of his experiments. He then made the mistake of asking if John thought everything bizarre happening in the apartment was his doing.
John made the mistake of saying yes.
The consulting detective was offended, and John knew he had to remedy the situation fast. He said it was normal for a scientist to want to experiment on everything. The comment flattered Sherlock. He looked like a cat that got the canary, before he suddenly frowned and accused John of not trusting him. He stormed off to his room and slammed the door shut.
John raised an eyebrow, and wondered if it was Sherlock's time of the month.
Sherlock only came out after John wrote him an apology note filled with 'I'm sorry' and 'please come out and eat'. John knew then that Sherlock had a sadistic side that loved to see him beg.
