AN: Hi there! Sorry it took me so long to update but I'm very busy at the moment and my beta is too, so it takes a bit longer. Have some Nightly phone calls, minor feels, cheesiness and shameless flirting and some innuendos to make up for it…

Sherlock, John
...
4:41am
Sherlock?
4:42am
Why are you up?
4:44am
Can't sleep again.
4:45am
Bad dream?
4:48am
Mhm
4:49am
John? Everything alright?
4:53am
Yeah, yeah of course. Just a stupid dream.
4:54am
Do you want to talk about it?
4:56am
It's really stupid. You'll think it's stupid.
4:57am
No, John, it's not stupid when it has something to do with you.
4:58am
It's just…You died.
4:59am
How did I die?
5:04am
You fell off the roof of our school. And I couldn't do anything. I just stood there, not able to move and you fell and then you hit the ground and oh my god there was blood everywhere.
5:06am
John, I assure you, it was just a dream. I'm perfectly fine, you're perfectly fine. I would never do something like that. And it's not stupid, don't ever say anything like that again.
5:07am
*incoming call*
"…John?"
"I… sorry. I just had to hear your voice."
"Don't be sorry. You can always call me."
"Promise me you'll never die."
"I can't promise this. At some point everybody dies."
"Promise me."
"John, be logical. I'll probably be retired and living in a cottage in Sussex. You'll be living with your wife in a pretty house with a white picket fence somewhere in one of the best parts in London. Your children and grandchildren will be visiting you. Maybe you'll even have a dog. You'll have long forgotten about me when the time comes to die."
"…And if I like cottages in Sussex? I couldn't forget you, even if I wanted to."
"Why would you like cottages in Sussex? Family, white fence and a dog, that's the life for people like you. For the perfect ones, not for the lonely people like me."
"Maybe I don't wanna have a normal, perfect life."
"It isn't about the cottage in Sussex. I would go to a farm in Scotland or to an igloo in Norway too. It's more the company than the place, Sherlock. You're not lonely, because you have me. And you can't leave me."
"I would never leave you. But you will, John. Try to be reasonable."
"I am reasonable. Sherlock that dream nearly killed me. Do you really think I'm able to leave you?"
"I don't know, John. I honestly don't know. I can't see the future."
"Sherlock, I will never leave you, unless you tell me to. And even then, you know how stubborn I can be."
"Yes, I know. I'll be with you as long as you want me to be."
"Then I guess we're stuck together."
"Like glue."
"Are you smiling?"
"Maybe."
"You are! I can practically hear it through the phone."
"You really should become a detective."
"Consulting detective."
"Excuse you."
"Why?"
"Haha, just forget it."
"If you say so. You should probably go to bed, John, I can hear you yawning."
"…Come on, Vic, use your side of the bed, there's plenty of space… Uhm, sorry about that, John."
"I… uhm… Well, good night then."
5:32am
*call ending*
"John? John?"
5:33am
*call ending*
5:40am
You still have to promise me.
5:41
I promise. But why did you end the call?
5:42
Good.
No reason.
5:43am
Ok. You're tired John, I can tell. Go to bed.
5:44am
Maybe I should. Good night Sherlock.
5:45am
Good night, John. Sleep well.
5:46am
Thanks, you too.
...
8:27am
Sherlock, I'm not coming home today, we're stuck.
8:28am
No, don't tell me that you're stuck because of a little snow.
8:29am
1.3 meters is not little!
8:30am
Dull.
8:31am
Come home, it's boring here.
8:31am
And the snowploughs are frozen.
8:33am
I wanna come home too, but it looks as if we're stuck for at least another three days.
8:34am
Three days?! How am I supposed to survive three days without you?
8:35am
A bit cheesy today, aren't you?
But it's not your fault, I know I'm irresistible. ;)
8:36am
Cheesy? Me?
Of course you are.
8:38am
Totally cheesy!
I'm Mr. Charming.
8:39am
Mr. Charming? Who gave you that title, one of your girlfriends?
8:40am
Actually I'm pretty imaginative myself.
8:41am
And I haven't have a girlfriend in months, if you haven't noticed.
8:42am
Wait, what about that little blonde? Maira, Miri, whatever?
8:43am
Mary? She's only a friend! Her boyfriend's name is Sebastian.
8:44am
And the one which swished her hair in all directions? Sahara or so? I always had her hair in my face?
8:45am
Sarah? That was seven months ago!
8:46am
Oh.
8:47am
But you always have girlfriends. Why not anymore?
8:50am
I dunno… I'm busy I think.
8:51am
No, you're not. You always complain that you don't know what to do in your free time.
8.52am
Yeah, well, but I'm mostly with you in my free time.
8:53am
And there we have the problem.
8:54am
I don't see a problem.
8:56am
Instead of spending your free time with me you could spend it with some girl.
8:57am
But I don't need to.
8:59
Please, John. In the past you'd rather spend your time with them than with me.
9:00am
But I don't want to anymore.
9:04am
I don't understand you sometimes.
9:05am
Welcome to my world.
9:06am
That must be boring.
9:07am
See it as a case, find out what you don't understand. I've got time the whole day, the others are sleeping off their hangover.
9:07am
I don't understand you. But I'm not sure if I ever could solve the miracle that is John Watson.
9:08am
That was kinda…cute.
9:09am
I'm not cute and I don't do cute things either. I merely stated the truth.
9:10am
Yes, you are.
9:11am
Am not.
9:12
I would pay millions to see you blush now.
You are, Sherlock Cuteness Holmes.
9:13
And I don't blush.
Hamish.
9:14am
Ha, denying is proving!
William.
9:15am
How would you know?!
9:16am
William Sherlock Scott Holmes. Mycroft showed me your birth certificate.
9:17am
Oh that stupid, fat, posh, cake eating idiot. I'll make him regret it. Should break his stupid umbrella? Or hide his sweets?
9:18am
You should, William. xD
9:19am
Stop it.
And that horrific emoticon too.
9:20am
Aww, a bit irritated are we?
9:21am
What?
9:21am
I'm never irritated.
9:22am
Noooooooo, of course not.
9:23am
John, is that sarcasm?
9:24am
Yes.
9:25am
Should I stay in bed, which is far more comfortable and stay hungry, or should I get up and get something to eat?
9:26am
Get up and get something to eat. Then return to bed.
9:27am
Perfect! That's exactly why I keep you!
9:28am
Because I am the smart one?
9:29am
Haha, yes.
9:30am
Obviously.
9:37am
[picture of a bowl full of muesli]
9:38am
Congratulations, John, you've found something to eat.
9:39am
Thank you very much, it's very good.
9:40am
It's very comfortable here in my bed with my muesli.
9:41am
Don't make your bed sheets dirty. That would be rather uncomfortable.
9:43am
Honestly, if somebody else but you would have said that, it would have sounded like an innuendo.
9:44am
Why? I don't see there any innuendos. I've only said that it wouldn't be good to get stains on your blanket.
9:45am
Exactly.
9:46am
I should probably stop laughing. I'll choke otherwise. xD
9:47am
How about you first swallow everything before you laugh, so you don't make a mess?
9:48am
Oh my fucking god xD stop, Sherlock, just stop. xD
9:49am
Now I spilled my muesli.
9:50am
Oh, John.
9:50am
Really?
9:51am
Yes, but just a little.
Anyway, what are you doing today?
9:52am
Nothing important. Annoying the fat idiot probably.
9:53am
Sounds entertaining. How?
9:54am
Eating cake in front of him. He's on a diet. Again.
9:56am
From what you tell me he's constantly on a diet.
9:57am
As if he could keep up with it. He always breaks it. And starts again.
9:59am
At least he tries…
10:00am
And fails.
10:01am
Yeah.
10:03am
Boooooooored.
10:04am
Jawn.
10:05am
Do something.
10:06am
Are you already back in our dorm? Or still at home?
10:07am
Home. School is closed because of the snow.
10:08am
Ah, okay, then I don't care if you cover the wall with darts.
10:09
Mummy confiscated the darts.
10:10am
Haha, why doesn't that surprise me?
10:11am
Very funny. I'm bored.
