John walked up the stairs to the flat of 221c, it had been over a month since Moriarty had escaped from the police and so far he hadn't been seen anywhere. In the month that had passed Enola had moved into 221c, she wanted to go further away but the police wouldn't allow it. She was under patrol and she couldn't leave 221c without telling Sherlock or John so they always knew exactly where she was. John could tell Enola hated it, she liked to be able to go where she wanted to but now she hardly could and he felt sorry for her. In front of Enola's flat door there was a large bouquet of red roses, an envelope addressed to Enola and a small box. He knocked on her door waiting until Enola opened the door dressed in a long dressing gown and pyjamas. "Yes John?" Enola asked softly, obviously half asleep.
"Sherlock told me to come and tell you that he's gone to Dorset on a case" John replied.
"Why didn't you go?"
"Didn't feel like leaving."
"He wouldn't let you go with him would he?"Enola asked, raising her eyebrow.
"Nope" John chuckled before looking back down at the gifts "Looks like you've got some mail."
Enola sighed picking up the roses, envelope and box "Hmm.. I wonder who these are from.."
"Is it your birthday or something?" John asked.
"Well.. Erm... It's thursday which means its the 18th so yeah it is" Enola said after a while of thinking.
"Oh.. Well maybe there from Mycroft or something."
"I highly doubt that" Enola replied "it's Mycroft, he wouldn't give me anything even if his life depended on it."
"Well you never know... Anyway I'm quickly going to the shop, I might pop back later on, only if that's alright with you of course?"
"Yes of course John" Enola said.
"Alright, I'll see you later then."
"Good bye." Enola said as John turned around and walked off, when he was gone she went back into her small flat and placed everything down before going and getting changed after she went back into the living room and picking up the card. She knew to well who they were from and she just preyed that when she opened the card it wouldn't explode. She slowly opened the envelope and got out the card, it was rather simple with a birthday cake and 'Happy Birthday' wrote on it. She opened it and inside there was writing;
"My dearest Enola,
I told you I would not forget your birthday didn't I?
And don't worry, nothing shall explode, it's just a simple gift, I'm expecting you to put it on though and not lose or break it
I'll see you soon
JM xx"
Enola placed the card on the side picking up the box and un wrapping the purple wrapping paper to produce a small blue box, she flipped it open and inside there was a silver necklace with a light blue diamond pendant on it. She slowly took it out of the box and wrapped it around her neck and tried to do it up without looking behind her neck, suddenly she felt a pair of hand take hold of the ends of the necklace and do it up after a hesitant second.
"For a minute there I thought you were going to strangle me.." Enola said quietly facing away from the man stood behind her.
"You know I wouldn't do that" he said.
"Do I?" Enola asked, raising her eyebrow as he put his hands on her shoulders.
"I would never cause you any harm."
"You have before..."
"But that was before, this is now."
"Where have you been?" Enola asked.
"Just getting people to help me with my plan."
"What is your plan then?" Enola questioned as he turned her around to face him.
Jim looked like he normally did, well groomed and cocky "that is for me to know and you to find out" he paused before continuing "and don't worry, you won't have to wait to long... Just a few more days."
"Whatever you're planning you will not succeed" Enola said confidently.
"You know I will, I always get what I want" Jim said wrapping his arms around her and pulling her close to him "I mean take yourself for example, I wanted you and I got you."
"You don't have me..." Enola muttered looking straight at Jim.
He shook his head "that's not true" he said bluntly before kissing her suddenly, at first Enola struggled to get away from him but then she gave in for a moment, accepting what was occurring. She waited a moment before realising everything and thinking about how wrong it was before stepping back and trying to push him off of her. "What are you doing?" Jim growled at her.
"Get out." Enola said quietly.
"What was that?"
"Get out now!" Enola snapped.
"Why would I want to do that?" Jim said mockingly, Enola bit her lip when suddenly there was a click behind Jim. Enola looked over his shoulder to see John standing behind him holding a gun and pointing it at his head.
"I'd find it best to leave now before I call the police" John said bluntly.
Jim started laughing, turning around to face John "oh look, you're trying to threaten me... Me! Where's your dear Sherlock? Left you alone?"
"Jim, I mean it, just leave" Enola said, her tone calm again.
"Fine, can't take the chance of being hurt today, got to much planned" Jim said, budging past John and knocking him to the side and walking out "see you soon my love."
When he had walked out Enola went over to John and helped him up, when he was up she done something which was out of the ordinary for her, and hugged him. "Thank you" she said softly as he slowly hugged her back. After a moment she stepped away from him and cleared her throat. "Sorry about that..."
"It's fine, honestly" John said.
Enola's eyes looked over to a bag near the door. "Is that yours?" She asked warily.
"Don't worry, it is, I brought some movies and food."
"How come?" Enola asked confused.
"You shouldn't have to sit about and do nothing, so I brought some things and thought I'd keep you company for a bit" John said, hoping she didn't refuse.
Enola smiled at John "erm... Alright then" she said, knowing that John was actually bored because Sherlock had left. "What movies have you got then?" She asked brightly.
"What do you like?"
"Hmm.. Horror?" Enola asked.
"Is Dawn of the Dead alright with you?" John asked.
"Perfect."
A/N~ if you haven't realised yet, this is based on the BBC version of Sherlock (hence all the modern stuff) not the actual books, thought I'd just make that clear :D
