3 December 2015, Thursday:

Early that morning, Sherlock received a text from Lestrade about a case. It didn't sound boring with the lack of details given, so Sherlock dragged John out into the chill of December London, barely allowing the man to put on his scarf before they were flagging down a cab. John was bunched on the seat, shivering slightly. The cold of the weather had gotten him.

John was the kind who favored heat, so Winter was not his favorite season. Afghanistan had changed his biology.

Sherlock, remembering the stipulations of the game, slipped his right glove off and pressed the back of his hand against John's cold cheek. The effect was instant. John shivered, but leaned into the warmth, sighing lightly.

If he was to romance John, he'd have to start with small gestures and allow them to grow in size over time.

He already had John's interest, they already lived together, John thought about him on a near constant basis - if what his girlfriends ever said was true - and John tended to rely on Sherlock. It was only a matter of turning friendship to romance and the line between both was very fine. Almost invisible actually.

The ride to the Yard was spent with Sherlock warming John. John rarely allowed such breaches in his personal space, but Sherlock felt that his reaction to the weather was what was making him so compliant. If the weather was like this every day, Sherlock wouldn't mind.

Lestrade was staring at them when they walked in. Of course this had to be one of those rare moments where he was observant, right?

John wasn't looking at Sherlock, Lestrade was looking between them, and Sherlock simply stood there as if nothing was wrong.

"Three bodies found strangled," said Lestrade, looking annoyed.

John squared his shoulders, getting into the swing of things now that attention had been drawn away from him.

Sherlock was kind enough to let it pass and save John the embarrassment... for now.
