No. I don't own Doctor Who.
No. I don't own Sherlock.
A Different Way to Break the News
•Why do I always have to be the one to break the silence?• I ask myself as I look at the two men sitting on either side of me.
Shaking my head, I get up and say, "Well if neither of you are going to tell our family what is, and has been, going on, you can both sit here and not say anything at all when I tell them."
"You may not talk," I said pinning each with a glare that, no matter how many times I use, they have not grown accustomed to, "while I tell them everything. You may speak after I have given permission. If any of us are interrupted as we are speaking and going over everything, I will not hesitate to lock you in the basement. Yes the sound proof basement," I look at Sherlock, "and with Toby," I pin the Doctor with a look.
As I finish, I look at both of them and give them a look, asking if they understood. After giving each other a glare, they each look down and nod.
"Good," I say, turning around, "How does tea sound?" I ask the rest of the room.
Looking around, I'm getting a large variation of looks. On both Mickey and Rose was a grin that stretched from one ear to the other and a bit of confusion in their eyes, on Jackie there was a look that just screamed proud, I think the only thing that has ever made her this proud of me was that time told her I slapped a man yelling at their parent.
But of these looks, the one I loved the best was Mycroft's, it was a look of shock, most likely of seeing me like this for the first time, and awe that I could get Sherlock to be silent.
Looking at them expectantly, Jackie finally replied, "A spot of tea would be lovely dear, and get some biscuits too, your biscuits are the best."
"Alright then, I'll put the kettle on and get a plate of biscuits, and when that's all done, we'll all sit down and I will explain why I had to drag you all to my flat," I said, smiling and nodding as I went to the kitchen.
Getting everything ready in the kitchen, I put some water to boil in the kettle from Clovfris that the Doctor got for me a couple of years ago. After just three minutes of boiling, the water was ready to be pour into my teapot. With tea seeping and sugar, cream and biscuits on the try as well, I made my way back to where everyone else was situated.
I set everything down on my coffee table, got all of us teacups and saucers, including ones for John and Mary, both of whom were due to arrive at the door in thirty seconds because they were at work. How nice it must be to be able to work until their shifts were over, though I guess they chose when they could leave.
*Ding Dong* It's nice knowing that my skills in timing have not gone sloppy over the years.
"I'll be right back," I said over my shoulder as I made my way to the door, letting the blond couple in, both of whom, discarded their coats swiftly and dropped down on the loveseat.
"Well this isn't they exact circumstance I wanted everyone to meet, but see as I even associate with these two," I gestured to the two men sitting beside me as I served everyone a cuppa, "I really shouldn't have been surprised."
Once everyone had a cup and a biscuit, I sat back and started.
"First off, introductions. Mickey, Rose, Jackie, to your left is Mycroft, Sherlock's brother. On the loveseat are John and Mary, who are married and friends of mine and Sherlock. Finally, to my right is the infamous Sherlock Homes, who I am seeing," I said, rolling my eyes at the end, when Jackie clapped her hands in celebration.
"Mycroft, John, Mary, the wonderful woman who is to Mycroft's right is Jack and Rose is her daughter and Mickey is a friend of theirs and mine. The man to my left is my older brother," I stressed, as Sherlock's eyes widened, seeing the mistake in his deduction.
"That explains more than half of the story!" Jackie announced, placing her cup and saucer on the table.
"It's nice to meet the infamous Doctor that Molly always hints at!" John and Mary say in union.
"I feel like I'm meeting a superstar after talking to you and hearing all the fabulous tales the Doctor tells me about you Moll," Rose laughed, beaming at me.
"You're both aliens," was the only think that Mycroft said.
This time, both Sherlock and the Doctor's widened as they gaped at Mycroft. All I could do was chuckle, if Sherlock couldn't get it, I was expecting Mycroft to.
"Yes we are," I confirmed, feeling like a load had been taken off of my shoulders.
Suddenly, I was turned to face Sherlock. They looked into my eyes for a minute before nodding and kissed my cheek and releasing me. Turning to my left, the Doctor was slumped, seemingly just done with everything for the moment.
"So, since the bigger news is out of the way, on to the reason I had to come dragging you all to my flat," I said.
Everyone placed their tea down and gave me their full attention. I started to tell them about waking up to my phone ringing and being so excited about my brother finally coming to visit. Then pondering everything at work, getting a few chuckles at how comfortable I was around severed limbs and dead people.
Next, I went on to describe how elated I was to hear our girl appearing in the corner of the lab. I also added in that I realized I should have at least told one of the two about the other but not having enough time.
Then about my thoughts and how I didn't really catch what was being said before I had to pry them apart and drag them here and have Toby guard them as I went out to get everyone.
"Well not you're all caught up. And that is why these two haven't said anything, I gave Toby permission to maul them until they sat back down and you don't want to see their legs before you arrived. It was a bit of a bloody mess," I said, giggling at the end.
Next chapter will be up today or tomorrow.
