Author's note: 16/60.
Pairing: Lestrade x Sherlock (platonic)
Warnings: Arrogant Sherlock (but that's a given right?)
Disclaimer: I do not own Sherlock.
Arrogance
"You are so arrogant!" The wife of the criminal shouted. "Thinking you are right all the time! My husband would never kill that woman; they didn't even know each other!" "Miss, I may be arrogant, but it is arrogance well deserved. After all, I have never been mistaken on the identity of a criminal. Your husband knew his victim very well; we have video evidence of his affair with her. Your anger is misplaced."
"Sherlock." Lestrade groaned. While he was right and his arrogance was an earned privilege, he still didn't know how to communicate with other people. "Madam, Sherlock is correct, all evidence points towards your husband and since when we arrested him he said, and I quote him on that, 'that bitch deserved to die, I don't regret anything', even he admitted to his crime. Sherlock Holmes might be an arrogant man, but he is never wrong as far as cases are concerned, he always give it his all."
The woman blanched. "I – I am sorry, Mr. Holmes. I shouldn't have said what I did." She whispered then she left them alone. "Thank you, Greg." Sherlock whispered before he turned to leave as well. Lestrade smiled. "You're welcome." He said back at a normal voice, making Sherlock blush and walk faster.
