20. Blanket

It's been a few nights now that there would be a slight disagreement in the Holmes-Lestrade household.

It was the age old disagreement, which knows no gender, colour or label, the fight of the blanket.

Greg would argue that Mycroft steals all the blankets during the night and Mycroft would say that Greg keeps it for himself. Instead of a double bed blanket, they bought a Queen Size blanket. It went well, for a few nights, but soon enough that blanket became too small for Mycroft's long legs and Greg's broad shoulders.

In an attempt to keep the peace Anthea bought them a King size duvet wide enough for Greg's broad shoulders and long enough for Mycroft's never-ending legs.

That seems to do the trick, that is until they decided to buy a King size bed to go with the blanket and their activities after they nearly had a trip to the ER when one of them fell off the bed and hit his head on the bedside table.

Yeah, Sherlock still refuses to acknowledge that his brother and Greg can be adventurous.

In the end there was only one solution Mycroft wrapped the blanket around them both and they would sleep as close as possible to the middle.

Greg thinks it was all a masterplan to make sure they spoon when they sleep. Then again it was a perfect plan.
