They walked out of the movie theatre in silence; Sherlock because he was deep in thought over what he had just seen, John because he was waiting for Sherlock to speak. They were almost back at John's house by the time Sherlock started to speak.

'Who would make a vampire sparkle? It's not very threatening isn't it?'

'No. No it's not,' John said. 'But you have to admit that the thought of a handsome, sparkling vampire falling in love with you has many people enthralled.'

Sherlock stopped walking causing John to stop three steps ahead. Turning around, John found Sherlock looking at him with an unfamiliar expression on his face.

'Do you think that he is handsome?' Sherlock asked.

'Well – I -' John paused as he thought over his answer. 'I suppose that Edward has an appealing quality to him.'

His forehead furrowed and Sherlock looked in deep thought. John watched a thousand different thoughts running through his friend's mind but couldn't for the life of him figure them out. Unwilling to allow the thoughts to develop into a brood, John grabbed Sherlock's hand and started to walk again, pulling Sherlock and ignoring his own blush.
