Part 10: Follow You Home.

*This one goes out to TrekkieL! This was entirely her idea; and a great one at that! Hope this brightens your day :) *

(Re-uploaded due to typos! Sorry about that!)

Sherlock, I think I'm being followed. -JW

Don't be preposterous, John. Who would have reason to follow you? -SH

I dunno but I just have this bad feeling, you know? -JW

No. I would not know. A feeling is hardly grounds for assumptions John. -SH

I guess your right. I'm probably being paranoid. -JW

Might be due to the grounds of our job. Your faced with many theories on how victims meet their end, your mind is not used to working in this way. Therefore making your senses heightened out of fear or your desire to find answers; the best way of which is letting yourself experience it first hand. -SH

Sherlock, I swear I just saw someone. They were there one minute, gone the second I turned round. I didn't get a good look. I'm not being paranoid! I'm sure of it! -JW

I'm busy now John. Please refrain from producing anymore ridiculous theories and messaging them to me. You are not being followed. It's your imagination. Its craving for danger thus inventing it's own. -SH

Whatever. I'll see you at home. If I'm not kidnapped by then! -JW

I'll see you at home then. Minus the kidnapping; that would be a tiresome ordeal. -SH

I'm glad you care so much about my well-being. I'm flattered. -JW

Please refrain from entering one of your 'moods', John. I cannot concentrate on the task at hand whilst knowing you are giving me daggers. -SH

How do you know I'm in one of these 'moods'!? You might just be taking my texts out of context, seeing as you can't actually hear my voice! -JW

I just know. Go home and get some sleep. You must be tired. -SH

You get some sleep! -JW

I am not paranoid! -JW

~3 hours later~

Solved the case. An 8 at most. Anderson was his delightful self, I had to remind myself that violence is not the answer countless times. On my way to Baker Street now -SH

I assume your sleeping. I apologise for the interruption. -SH

*Sherlock enters the flat, calls out for John but gets no answer*

I wasn't aware that you had plans. I would have liked to have been informed of such. I could have purchased a Chinese on my journey home. I assumed you were cooking. -SH

John, where are you? You usually reply within 2-3 minutes upon receiving a text. It annoys you otherwise. -SH

Are you on a date? You haven't mentioned anything along those lines, you usually bore me with the details for hours. -SH

~An Hour Later~

John. It is of paramount importance that you reply to this message. -SH

[Outgoing call to John Watson]

* VOICEMAIL*
"Hi! You've reached Watson. I am busy at the moment but if you leave a message i will get back to you as soon as I can. If you have a medical question contact the doctors surgery, if its a case, try talking to Sherlock Holmes."

*BEEP*

[Call Disconnected]

"Dammit John!"

[Outgoing call to John Watson]

[Call Dissconnected]

[Outgoing call to John Watson]

[Call Dissconnected]

ANSWER YOUR PHONE! -SH

[Outgoing call to John Watson]

[Call Dissconnected]

If this is one of those terrible pranks of yours, trying to prove me wrong, I'm informing you that I will not fall for such a monotonous act of childishness. -SH

[Outgoing call to John Watson]

[Call Dissconnected]

I'm worried. Please call me. -SH

Or text me. Whatever you prefer. -SH

[Outgoing call to John Watson]

[Call Dissconnected]

I wish I listened to you. I often do when it's too late. I'm sorry. -SH

Lestrade I need your help. John is not replying to any of my texts or calls and I have no idea of his whereabouts. Before he disappeared he expressed his worries of being watched/stalked. I dismissed this stupidly. Please get in touch as soon as possible. -SH

Jesus! Okay, rounding some officers now for the search. Sorry, mate. Don't worry, we'll find John and he'll be fine. -GL

I highly doubt that. -SH

My tech team are watching CCTV footage of John turning onto Baker Street, he looks very skittish, you know, like turning round every 5 seconds to see if someones there. He stopped at an alley opening to check his phone and we can make out a pair of hands grabbing him backwards and a bag being put over his head. We are trying to find him now. -GL

Anderson. I know we do not get along, but John is missing and I would appreciate your help in searching for him. If you could gather the rest of the Forensic Team and coerce them into helping I would be grateful. -SH

If I must. -A

This doesn't mean I like you. Just because I'm helping you. Greg is offering double pay. -A

Thank you. -SH

Sherlock are you coming down the station to see the footage? -GL

Of course I am! I'm not going to sit here twiddling my thumbs whilst John is missing and possibly being tortured or being put in distress! -SH

Sorry, yeah of course. I'm sure John can handle himself, he used to be in the army! -GL

He was an army DOCTOR for Christ sakes! Not a soldier! -SH

You know as well as I do that they wouldn't send medical officers in the field without basic defence training! -GL

I hope he's okay. I need him to be okay. -SH

John, Please be okay. -SH

I'll never do experiments in the kitchen, (the flat even) again if you tell me something, anything. I need to hear your voice. -SH

I'll do the washing up and cook for a month -SH

I'll even store body parts in a separate container so you don't moan about it contaminating food. -SH

I'll give you your wallet back -SH

I'll buy you a new wallet-SH

I'll buy you an obscene amount of jumpers, tea, and jam! -SH

I'm coming to get you John. Just hold on a moment longer. I'm coming. -SH

I think I understand how it feels to be emotionally attached to someone now. This feeling Is horrible. I want it to go away. I need you safe for it to subside. You are my only friend. I've never told you how much your friendship means to me before, but I can't loose you. -SH

~8 hours of hard searching by both Scotland Yard and Mycroft's contacts later...~

The doctors won't let me in! Do something! -SH

I can't, being a doctor doesn't give you a special visitors pass or whatever! -JW

Please. I need to see you. -SH

You've seen me. I'm fine! I promise, once they check me over you can come in. Wont be long now :) -JW

That doesn't assure me in the slightest. You have been gravely injured before and exclaimed that you were in fact 'fine'. -SH

Well I'm telling the truth now, and you'll be able to see that once the bloody doctor shows up! -JW

The receptionist is threatening to have me escorted off of the premises. -SH

You always were impatient. I would sneak out and see you but my legs a little swollen. -JW

What!? I thought you said you were fine! You promised! -SH

I AM FINE! I just have soft tissue damage because of the chain cuff things that were around my ankle. -JW

When I finally get to see you; which will probably be in 10 minutes via the window opposite your bed if this incorrigible excuse for a medical professional doesn't make an appearance, I will personally ban you from uttering the word 'fine' in my presence. After assessing your condition first of course. -SH

Sherlock, I am a doctor, and I'm telling you I am fine. It could have been much worse. I got away lightly. -JW

Right. That's it. I'm coming in through the window. I am telling you in advance encase you have developed acute paranoia after such a traumatic event. -SH

It wasn't traumatic! I invaded Afghanistan! That's far more traumatic! -JW

See you in 5 ;) -SH

Did you just send me a winkey face? -JW

Yes, Doctor Watson, I do believe I did. Now keep a watch out. I will be making an appearance shortly. -SH

You impatient idiot! -JW

You enigma. –SH

As always, thanks for reading! Suggestions welcome :D
