Prompt #50 - Play.


I only smiled as there was a large crash and a twin shout of compulsive laughter that rocked the house, originating from the sitting room.

But gradually the clamour quieted, and an hour or so later I was outside the door with a coffee-pot (heaven knew 'twas needed) when I heard Mr. Holmes's violin start to play.

Pausing to listen, I heard a quiet snicker from the Doctor and a rather rude curse from Mr. Holmes as he realised just how out of tune it was.

"It's too out of tune, Watson, I'm sorry."

"I don't mind, my dear fellow."
