Sooo, we've already reached day ten... wow. One third. Can't quite believe it.
Day Ten – With Animal Ears
Sherlock entered John's room ten minutes later with moving boxes and a piece of paper in his arms. "Surprise!" he beamed excitedly.
"Moving boxes? Do you want me to move out?"
"Out of this room, yes." He threw the piece of paper in John's lap. "Look!" John unfolded the sheet. "I ordered a new wardrobe that'll fit all of our stuff but it won't arrive until Monday. Therefore we'll have to pack up all of our belongings and dismantle the old wardrobe.
John felt a knot form in his chest. "You… oh wow." He swallowed. "I didn't expect this. Wow."
"Not good?" Sherlock whispered. Shit. Too fast.
"No. No, no, no, no, no. Sherlock no. Come here." He embraced his friend and kissed the corner of his mouth. "Thank you. Really. This is the best present I could have imagined. I just didn't expect it from you. It really surprises me. Do you want to fill these boxes now or later?"
"We could fill yours now and mine later. That's if you want me to help you, we can also split and both fill our boxes simultaneously."
"Of course I want you to help me. I'm sure that we'll find some funny stuff in the shoals of my drawers."
"Like these?" Sherlock had opened the last drawer and found a pair of cat-ears and a pair of bunny-ears.
John laughed. "Yes, just like these. " He took the bunny-ears and put them on. "Remember the party where we wore these? One of the duller case, even though that party was quite funny."
"Yeah, until the cake exploded. What a waste!" He laughed as well and put the cat-ears on. "Got to keep these!"
"You child!" They emptied all drawers in less than two hours and then went on with John's wardrobe.
Sherlock pulled out a suit bag. "What's in here?" He opened it and pulled out John's old uniform. "Oh… Does it still fit?" He smirked.
John frowned. "Umm… I don't know, haven't worn it in ages. I don't think so."
"Will you try? I'd love to see it on you." Sherlock blushed and handed john the bag.
The ex-army hesitated but then took the bag and laid it on the bed. "Why not?"
The uniform was tight but surprisingly still fit him and didn't look bad at all. Sherlock had to laugh nevertheless. "These ears look absolutely ridiculous. Let me kiss you, captain bunny!"
"Come here, messmate kitty" He pulled Sherlock in for a sweet kiss. "I love you."
The detective hummed into the kiss. "I'd so love to rip this uniform off of you and make love to you right here and now. Let's empty your wardrobe so that we can finally go to bed."
John gulped audibly. "Make love as in…" He trailed off, not finding the right words to form his question, but Sherlock understood.
"If you're up to it. I really want to try it."
This made John smile shyly. "Yes, yes. Me too." He pulled Sherlock down for a kiss and wiggled with his animal ears. "Let's hurry up then."
They managed to empty John's room within five hours despite the fact that they got distracted fairly easily. It was nearly midnight when they finally collapsed on their bed, exhausted and happy. Sherlock rolled on top of John and pulled on his bunny ears. I like these. They make you look… extra cute."
"You know that I don't like being referred to as 'cute'", John mock-pouted. "It's not my fault that I'm that small."
"You're not small, you're… compact. Yes, compact. The perfect size to put you in my pocket." He grins.
John laughed "Well if you say that." He pulls Sherlock's cat ears out of his thick curls and throws them to the floor. Then he pulls out his pair and they soon join the others on the floor. "As I'm the birthday boy, can I wish for something?"
"Anything, John. Anything you want." Sherlock smiled fondly at his partner. He felt so much happier than all day, now that he and John finally lay on their bed, cuddling and kissing. His fingers itched to touch John's skin, all of it.
"John had to clear his throat. He was already so aroused that his voice threatened to fail him. "I want you to make love to me. Show me how much you love me."
"There's nothing I'd rather do right now." His fingers skimmed under John's jacket and he started undressing him.
Hehehe... sexy times ahead, whoop whoop! Isn't that what we all waited for? ;)
I love each and everyone of you. X
