Hey, Sherlock. - JM

I'm thinking. - SH

About what? - JM

A case. - SH

How's it rated? - JM

Only a six, but it could go up. Is it yours?- SH

Not if it's just a six. - JM

U must not have found mine yet...- JM

What do you mean? - SH

Nothing. Nothing at all. - JM

Ignore what I said. - JM

Alright. - SH

So... U getting anywhere with the case? - JM

Not really, I've been thinking about it all week, and nothing not a single lead has presented itself. - SH

lol. Maybe u should take a break? - JM

I'll take a break from solving crimes as soon as you take a break from committing them. And please stop using 'U' in place of 'you' and 'lol' in place of... whatever it means. - SH

So basically never, then. - JM

And what's wrong with using abbreviations and acronyms? - JM

You're a smart man, Jim, but when you text, you look like an idiot. - SH

It's perfectly normal, people everywhere use it every day. - JM

I know, but you're not normal are you? - SH

How about a compromise? - JM

I'm listening. - SH

I'll do it less. - JM

How about that? - JM

Unless you're annoying me of course. - JM

Then I'll use it more than normal on purpose. - JM

I wouldn't put it past you.- SH

Good. Because it's not. - JM

Hmm... - JM

What? - SH

I'm hungry. - JM

I want food. - JM

Sherlock was surprised to find that at the mention of food, his stomach rumbled.

I'm a bit peckish myself. - SH

No food in the flat? - JM

Nothing appealing. - SH

I've experimented on most of it. - SH

Is John there? - JM

No, he's visiting his sister today, why? - SH

Wanna drop by Angelo's for a bite to eat? - JM

Sherlock considered this for a moment.

He didn't usually eat on a case, but he hadn't gotten anything figured out.

It would be less boring than if he went by himself.

And he wouldn't have to wait for John to get back.

Besides, spending some time with a criminal might spark a hypothesis.

Fix your text, then I'll say yes. - SH

Fine. - JM

Do you want to get a bite to eat at Angelo's? - JM

Yes. - SH

Sherlock was already sitting in his usual spot when Moriarty got there.

They both ordered and ate.

"This is soooo good." Moriarty said, chowing down on his sandwich. "I can't believe I've stalked you when you went here, but never actually bothered to try the food."

"I saw you drink a fizzy drink." Sherlock commented.

"Well yeah, but-" Moriarty cut himself off. "You know when I'm there?"

"Of course Jim, it takes me a few minutes, I'll give you that," Sherlock said, "But you aren't as sneaky as you think you are."

Moriarty crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes at Sherlock, pouting.

"You'd be better at it if you spent more time with ordinary people. The best way to hide is to blend into the scene." Sherlock said, taking a bite of his own sandwich.

"Don't you think I know that?" Moriarty said.

"You know it, yes, but you're not that great at applying it."

"Shut up." Moriarty muttered.

Sherlock rolled his eyes.

"And John says I'm dramatic..."

Moriarty kicked Sherlock's leg underneath the table.

"You're only proving my point." Sherlock smirked.

"Ugh! Just change the subject!" Moriarty said. "Tell me about that case you're working on."

Sherlock frowned.

"Well, it's one of the more difficult easy ones I've worked on." Sherlock said. "Not because it's all that confusing, but simply because I don't have all the pieces to the puzzle yet."

"So... Murder? Theft? Burglary? Arson? What?"

"Actually, it's only breaking and entering."

"So they broke in, and didn't steal anything?"

"No, they left something instead." Sherlock said.

"What?"

"A piece of emerald green velvet."

Moriarty stared at Sherlock for a moment before he started to laugh.

"What?" Sherlock asked, confused.

"You know how I said it wasn't mine when we were texting?" Jim said, laughing so hard his eyes were watering.

"Yes." Sherlock narrowed his eyes.

"Well, it actually is." Moriarty said. "It was actually a training exercise for some of the newer of my network. They were just supposed to break in and drop a piece of cloth the color of their team."

"Oh." Sherlock said. "Well that's disappointing. It looked promising."

"Yeah, well, I'm sure you'll get a new one soon enough."

"Probably."

A/N: Well that deviated from my original train of thought. It worked though. Oh well. Reviews!
