Summary: The girls meet a suspicious looking character.
Notes: Alright so here's the deal, I am got tired of typing in third person so I will continue on in first person. The first three chapters were just to introduce the main characters anyway so yeah. Hope you enjoy.
Watson( This two weeks after Sherlock went to the Yard)
Hot breath, sweaty bodies, and moaning. "You like that don't you Mary? Oh, you are such a bad girl."
"Watson...stop. It HURTS!"
I awoke with a start and broke out in a cold sweat. I held my head in my hands and looked over at Mary hoping I didn't wake her up, thankfully I didn't. I've been having the same nightmare for the last three years and every time I try to remember I only get small flashes. In the nightmare I would hear yelling, skin slapping against skin, and even more surprising,the air smelled of sex. Sometimes I wold see Sherlock's face and even my face but I could never piece together the whole story. In order to clear my head I slipped out of bed and decided to walk out into the midnight air and find my way to Mrs. Hudson's. Breathing in the crisp night air I tried forcing the images into the back of my mind. The cold air bit at my face and caused me to wince. I looked up to find the street light labeled 221B Baker Street. Thankfully Mrs. Hudson allowed me to keep the keys to building so I just let myself in.
All of the lights were out and not a sound reverberated through the house. Still standing in the foyer, I looked up the stairs toward the room that I use to share with my now deceased friend. I hadn't allowed Mrs. Hudson to clean it or give it away because I felt an attachment to the place where I had developed a strong life long friendship and brotherhood with the man. I made sure to quietly get up the stairs and turn the nob to enter the room. Upon entering, I breathed in the smell of him and of molded paper and chemicals. The bed was empty and the I could see that Mrs. Hudson have given in and picked up a couple of things around the room. I smiled remembering the times we spent together and the cases we solved. My mind flashed back to parts of the nightmare and this time I saw Sherlock's face contorted in pain and fear but I didn't know why. Leaving out the room, I gasped when something bumped into my leg.
"Uh, sorry." I turned on the lights to get a better look a what I was dealing with. A pair of young interesting eyes stared up at me. I call them interesting because they are brown but they have specks of blue in them. Brown curls framed a white, clear, round face, "Oh, hello Mister." The small girl said. I knelt in front of her.
"Hi there, who are you?" She eyed me suspiciously before speaking.
"My name is Lilly." She held out her hand for a handshake.
"I'm Dr. Watson; it's nice to meet you." I took her hand in mine and shook it.
"Lilly, what are you doing?" Another voice came out of the dark hall
"I'm going to the bathroom."
"It's been eight minutes, you would have come back to bed by now." Another little girl padded into the dark hallway, Lilly glared.
"Why are you observing my bathroom patterns that's really creepy. Stop it."
The other girl seemed to ignore Lilly, "Who is this"
Lilly sighed, "His name Dr. Watson. He just came out of the forbidden room." Lilly looked back at me, "This is my sister Beth."
"Well, it's nice to meet you Beth. How are you?"
"Sleepy...Lilly hurry up and go use the bathroom."
"Okaay." Lilly left for the restroom and I continued to look at Beth. She had blondish-brown hair with brown eyes. Their faces seemed kind of identical but their other features such as their hair and eyes were not. They were quite adorable might I add. Lilly finally came out of the bathroom and wiping her washed, wet hand against her nightgown. Beth grabbed on to her sister's hand and waved at me, "Good night Mister." I waved back. As they walked back, a thought entered my mind that they sorta of had the features of a certain someone. Just as I quietly entered the house, I left and I felt as if someone were watching me.
9 A.M.
"Darling, where did you go at three in the morning?"
I had just sat down for breakfast when Mary asked the question. "I just went for a walk to clear my head." She frowned.
"Was it the nightmare again?" She said with concern.
"Yes. I don't know what it's about and I don't know how to make it go away."
"Well it's alright darling, I'm sure it will leave just as it came."
I nodded hoping she was right because i was tired of having the same nightmare every night. I continued to eat my breakfast.
"Um, Dear?" Mary sat across from me looking very anxious.
"Yes?"
"I went to the Doctor yesterday since I haven't been feeling well as of late."
"Okay, is everything alright?"
"I'm pregnant."
I stared blankly only for a minute letting the words sink in, "Oh, well this is great news. After so long of trying finally we will have a child of our own." I gave her a hug and continued on with my breakfast. Finally I will have a child of my own that I am able to show off.
Sherlock
I sat in my chair feeling quite flustered as i plucked away at my violin; Watson had come into my room last night and had I not hid things, could have gone terribly wrong. I looked at Beth and Lilly as they played the game I spy or something to that effect, just looking at them filled my heart with happiness and yet knowing that Watson was still alive and well made me even happier. How is it that a man who I undoubtedly drove crazy and always created problem for made me excited?
"I hear with my little ear someone coming up the steps." Lilly drawled the girl has very keen hearing abilities.
"I spy with my little eye Clarky." Beth finished and ran to open the door.
I was surprised that the girls had grown quite fond of Clarky but then again I like Clarky more than anyone in Scotland yard.
"Hello Beth." Clarky handed her a small piece of candy and picked up Lilly who made the grabby hands at him. She never does that for me any more. Clarky saw himself in and sat in the chair across from mine.
"How may I help you Clarky." I said while continuing to strum the strings.
"We have a case. His name is Ronald Adair and he was found dead."
"So, lots of people are found dead." I spoke uninterestedly.
"In the room he was found dead, the door was locked, no forced entry and no gun shot was heard. The money he had on the table was untouched as well; he is one of the sons of the Earl of Maynooth and they are willing to pay a handsome amount of money."
After hearing a couple more details, my interest was peaked and I stopped my redundant strumming. "Almost sounds interesting, let's go." I grabbed my coat and hat and made sure that Mrs. Hudson wasn't too busy to watch Beth and Lilly otherwise I would have to take them with me but then again it would probably to them some good to see me at work. I called out to them, "Be good and don't cause trouble for Mrs. Hudson I will be back later tonight."
"Yes Sir."
Clarky and I were off.
A/N:So I don't exactly like this chapter and just because of this chapter I am thinking of stopping but it people say they like it I will push through and continue. I will probably continue even if people don't tell what you may want to see in the next chapter and I will try to incorporate it cause at the moment I have writers block. It's a miracle that I could type chapter four. See you in the next chapter. BYE!
