To John's astonishment, the dinner cruise has been reserved to them only and there was no one on board except for them and the crew. It was just a lovely view cruising among the river bend as John was beside Sherlock the whole entire time while Harry and Clara were off in the opposite of the boat. John had blushed at the thought about he and Sherlock being alone as he thought it was a date. How could he be blushing at this if he was the one who gave Sherlock a kiss on the cheek just an hour ago about?
When dinner was announced, the group sat together and it was a lovely outing that John felt sorry that Mycroft had to watch Shirley at the moment to miss this. Sherlock was telling Harry and Clara about the adventures that he had when he was away as everyone thought he was dead. Harry and Clara told the two men that they were indeed getting remarried again and that John would be one of the best men for Harry.
"Had you two set the date?" John asked.
"After Christmas and before New Year's that we are thinking, we want the wedding to be small this time," Harry replied as she looked at Clara than at Sherlock, "you and Mycroft are invited of course," she said.
"We would be delighted," Sherlock replied with a smile that John sure was fake. Just then, music began playing in the room as John looked at Sherlock with a raised eyebrow. Sherlock smirked, "May I have this dance?" He asked as he was standing up and looking at John.
John scoffed, what was he, a girl? But who could deny Sherlock Holmes? John nodded as he and Sherlock went to the dance floor and Sherlock began to lead the dance.
"Isn't that cute? I wouldn't be surprise by the end of the week my brother and Sherlock would be together," Harry whispered to Clara as the two women watched the two men danced.
"John's bisexual, isn't he? I mean, he dated women before, right?" Clara asked quietly.
"His not really bisexual, because I think Sherlock would be the first guy he dated. I think Sherlock is the only one for him," Harry replied.
"So it's like love at first sight," Clara said with a smile on her face.
"You got to remember that John was married to Mary before, Clara," Harry said as Clara nodded as Harry watched John danced. "If our parents were alive, dad would have been furious with John as he shouldn't be dating men. His military man, he shouldn't be looking at other men and that's one of the reasons why John and I didn't get along," Harry whispered sadly.
"What about your mother?" Clara asked.
"She knew instantly that I would be a lesbian and she must have known John would be gay or bisexual, because John didn't date women until the end of high school and mom supported him because of that but John didn't realize what she meant during that time. Mom would have liked Sherlock," Harry said smiling.
"I see," Clara muttered and the two women went back to watching John and Sherlock.
"You do realize that they are talking about you or me, right?" Sherlock whispered to John's ear.
"Are they?" John asked as he looked over to look at Harry who gave him an encouraging smile and he frowned. "Well, at least they are getting along," he said shrugging.
"Are you having a good time, John?" Sherlock asked.
"Of course I am, Sherlock. Why wouldn't I be?" John asked.
"I just thought that with your sister and Clara here instead of Shirley…"
"Everything's fine, Sherlock, this is where I'm suppose to be," John replied as he smiled. The music ended the two men looked at one another and before they knew what was happening, they were leaning in as if they were about to kiss. However, before they got a chance to, music started again, and they pulled away quickly. John heard a groan as he knew it came from his sister.
"We should get back to eating dinner," Sherlock mumbled and John nodded.
When they were going back to their table, Clara and Harry had stood up and were heading to the dance floor as Harry winked at John. John glared at her and he quickly looks away before he was caught blushing by Sherlock.
The rest of the dinner cruise went on smoothly and before John knew it, their dinner cruise had ended and they were leaving the boat as John saw a black car waiting for them.
"Does Mycroft really know everything?" Harry asked.
"He knows more than Sherlock does," John replied smirking as Sherlock glared at him. John was sorry that the day had ended. He knew that once everyone got into the black car, his birthday was over and he really wished that he had kissed Sherlock back when they were dancing.
