Chapter 14:

They went to Jim's new flat; it looked like it was clipped out of an Ikea book. Sebastian inspected the windows and doors before sitting down on the couch.

"So, what do you think, doesn't it just scream you IT guy." Jim opened his arms and presented the room.

"It's safe, and it looks like you live in an ikea show room." Sebastian smiled. He felt at home now finally for the first time in a week, and only another one to go before Jim's master and final plan for his life came to light.

"I missed you too Bassie, but work needs to be done." Jim sat beside Sebastian on the couch " now this new plan of ours, as you probably figured out involves bombs," Sebastian gave Jim a well duh look." Remember the vest I was working on at the country base? … Well I am using those, and all you get to do is sit and look pretty, until the right time. I will be meeting Sherlock and John as Jim from IT, probably tomorrow." Jim sighed, " I get to see john again, and I will get slapped by Molly, and you get to pick up the pieces." Jim looked at Sebastian and looked so tired. "but the final piece will be Johnny boy, you are kidnapping him for the final vest, I don't trust anyone else to no accidentally blow him up."

"Why are we even risking that?"

"I have to meet Sherlock face to face as Moriarty, John will understand, he always did when we were younger. I need a good bargaining chip to lure Sherly out, and only John can do that." Jim slumped arcross Sebastian. "Now enough of this, you just have to sit tight until I call you , you can watch from a far, get in contact with Johnny hang out with him, but as I said enough talking more sleeping." With orders finally given Jim pushed and shoved Sebastian until he was lying on the couch with pleased Jim. "You're staying here tonight, I haven't been sleeping well."

"Oh so now I am only good for being your living pillow"

"hmm"

"Never mind, night night"

"ummhmm" that was the last thing mumbled before sleep claimed both of them

...

"Morning Jim, Come on Jim time to get up its nine. You have to meet Mr. Sherlock soon Boss." Sebastian shook Jim trying to get the man off of him.

"Stop calling me Boss." Jim mumbled into his chest and stretched a bit before settling again.

"I will when you get up Boss." Sebastian gave him another nudge. With a growl Jim got up off the couch and went into the bedroom. Sebastian decided to make breakfast. Upon seeing that there was nothing edible so he decided to put on a pot of coffee at least. As he waited for Jim to finish getting ready he started to tidy up and clean out the fridge.

"Bassie what are you doing?"

"Just tidying a bit, it's filthy in here Jim." He said sipping his coffee.

"Leave it, you will be cleaning up all my messes soon enough" Jim smiled "here get dressed shower up then we will head out to St. Barts." Jim handed Sebastian a set of clothes. "You have a drawer here" Jim answered Sebastian unasked question. So with a quick shower and getting dressed Sebastian and Jim made their way to St. Barts.

The walk wasn't long only about 10 minutes "okay, why am I going? I thought I was supposed to get in contact with John without you. From afar you said."

"I changed my mind; Sherly will recognize you and will remember me, it's better to get over the connections with now when he is distracted." Jim stopped abruptly at the door leading to the Holmes wing. "Hush, Molly should be on her lunch now, she will be searching out Sherlock now."

As soon as the words left his mouth Molly came through a barely used stairwell at the other end of the hallway and. Jim walked out almost at the same time she did, it seemed she was in a Sherlock mind set and didn't register either of their presence. Now Sebastian felt a twinge of jealousy and tried to stamp it down. Jim waited until the door was almost closed before entering with a grin on his face. Sebastian hated this more, watching Jim pretend, though it helped with the jealousy it did nothing for his nerves.

"Oh sorry, I didn't know you were still working.. Hi." Sebastian watched as the person he considered a friend turned meek and shy.

"Oh Jim! … Sebastian" a look of confusion crossed her face as he lumbered into the room after Jim. "Come in come in" Sherlock glared at Jim before ignoring the room, and John's eyes zeroed in on Jim.

"Jim, Sebastian this is Sherlock Holmes and "Molly worried her lip. "um, ohh I'm sorry. "

"John Watson, Hi." John said in a distant voice before clearing his throat. "'ello' Colonel, guess you didn't have to look me up after all?" Though John's eyes never strayed from Jims person Sherlock's finally left his microscope to study the new people.

"Guess not."

Their conversation seemed to be ignored by everyone except Sherlock and molly plowed through with the introductions. "Sherlock this is my boyfriend Jim, he works up in IT. It's how we met, Office romance."

"Gay" Sherlock said barely giving Jim a glance before focusing on Sebastian again.

"What was that?" The Shrill hurt and confused voice of Molly was like a gunshot to Sebastian it made him wince.

"Hey, "Sherlock amended "you're the sniper I talked to, if I had known you knew John I would have invited you to tea."

"Sherlock, you are not to study him." John reprimanded, and got a huff of annoyance in return.

"Sebastian and I, were wondering if you wanted to join us for lunch Molls." Jim cut in drawing John's attention back to him.

"Oh, no I was going to work through lunch" Molly said.

"Alright see you at the fox later then." Jim looked hopeful and bounced on the balls of his feet.

"Yes," Molly watched them leave before turning back to Sherlock, "what do you mean gay." Was all the two heard before the door shut off the conversation completely.

"Well that was fun, "Jim turned back into Moriarty once more. "And I dare say Sherlock might even talk you up a bit." Jim grinned. "Since I am gay and all."

The two walked towards a café close by and relaxed in the rare sunshine while waiting for their tea. "John recognized you, why didn't he say anything?"

"He promised only I am allowed to open the line of communication with him. My family has kept in touch I am aware, mummy writes letters to him frequently enough and my siblings force him to go to the charity balls once or twice a year."

"So he knows everything about you, he is living with your enemy." Sebastian let the worry bleed out with his words

"His whole life is a lie Bassie he is very good at keeping his past his alone. I trust him." Jim studied Sebastian's reaction to his answer as the tea was delivered to their table.

"Alright it's just I am stuck between a rock and a hard place here. I am walking a fine line of protecting both of you." Sebastian looked into his tea as if trying to divine the future out of the steaming brew.

"Just relax, you won't be needed until a few more days and then you will be set for life." Jim winked at him, and Sebastian couldn't make heads or tails of it so he just drank his tea in silence and heeded Jim's words. His musing were cut off by Jim "all will go as planned and there will be a happily ever after."

"For who?" Sebastian couldn't' help but ask. And once again Jim just grinned and took a sip of his tea.
