Wee bit more on the case and a small thing between Sherlock and John. Just a small fight they have and a little jealous John :).
"So these symbols are the language of the angels?" Sherlock asked curiously before coming over and looking at John.
"Yes and I already took a quick look and found out that the first symbol is the letter S and the second one is the letter H. I'm not sure of that really means much or if he's going to kill more or anything."
"If that's all he is going to leave then maybe it's my initials? S.H Sherlock Holmes?" he suggested.
"Could be. We don't know if you're who he is trying to get the message out to or not. Let's just hope that's all there is to it. Two bodies is better than more."
"So since this is the letters of the angels, do you still think that this is possibly satanic?" Sherlock asked wanting a second opinion. Sherlock knew now that John liked being more part of the cases so he tried to ask him more questions than before.
"I think it's possible but I can't say for sure. The other things kinda make it seem like it could be satanic though. Maybe I should have grabbed another book on satanism or something," John said.
"Well at least you got a book for something that did help out a lot. I mean we would still be trying to figure out the carvings."
"I guess you're right then. Let me finish my coffee and I can go take another look at the book store for some book on satanism or something. Maybe even just some rituals." John went over and got his coffee and taking a sip at the now slightly warm coffee. He handed Sherlock his coffee. He took a sip and gave it a dirty look. He was about to complain when John said, "don't you dare say a word about it. Mine is the same way," which surprisingly shut Sherlock up.
After finishing his coffee, John set off back to the book store. As he entered, the same woman form before greeted him with the same smile. "Back for more," she asked with a slight laugh.
"No now I'm just looking for some kind of ritual books," John said looking over at the religion section.
"Well what kind of rituals?"
"Satanic," John said and noticed the woman started to look slightly uncomfortable but kept on a small smile.
"Oh um okay," she said nervously.
"Oh it's not for me. I work with Sherlock Holmes and we need it for a-"
"You mean the Sherlock Holmes? The great detective?" she exclaimed excitedly.
"Yea him," John said a bit uncomfortable.
"Oh that man is brilliant. If I could I would let him deduce me if you know what I mean," she said with a wink. This made John a lot more uncomfortable and just a bit jealous. This woman was not going to get anywhere near his Sherlock. Wow wait did he just say his Sherlock? John shook his head to clear it.
"Oh um yea ha, well anyways the book?" he said wanting to change the subject.
"Oh yes over here in the rituals and witchcraft section," she said pointing to the section. John bent over and picked up about three books on satanism and satanic rituals. He even decided to grab the satanic bible in case there was something of use in it. He goes over to check out and pays what he owes. The girl takes one of the books and writes something in the front cover. "If he ever has the time, get Sherlock to give me a call," she said in a flirtatious voice and winked. She waved goodbye but John simply walked out in anger.
Once John left, Sherlock called up Lestrade. He quickly dialed the number and got him on the second ring. "What do you have for me Sherlock?" he asked with some hope in his voice.
"Well he was killed in the same place as the other girl and the paint he was on was the same. The markings that were carved onto their bodies are Enochian symbols," he said quickly giving some information.
"What in bloody hell in Enochian?" Greg asked confused.
"It's the language of the angels," he replied. "There are symbols and they spell out S and H so far. We are guessing satanism so I got John to go out and get some books on it."
"Well okay so we have something, what do you think S.H stands for?"
"We are guessing if that's all for the bodies it could be my initials but we don't know if another body is going to show up or if this is even directed towards me."
"Let's hope it stays at S.H but I personally don't think we have seen the end of this killer. Any idea where he keeps the bodies?"
"I have no idea. I just know it's some sort of basement or warehouse. We have to start looking around to see where it could take us."
"Alright, keep me posted," Lestrade said before hanging up. John came into the house carrying a small stack of books. Sherlock could sense something was not right. He looked over and saw John was clearly upset. He decided it was best to simply ask what was wrong.
"John what happened?"
"Nothing," he replied angrily.
"John, you have lived with me long enough for me to know that something is not-"
"Why don't people know about our relationship?" he asked turning to look at Sherlock.
"Why does it matter?" Sherlock asked looking slightly confused. John didn't reply and instead threw the books at Sherlock before storming off into their shared room. Sherlock went over and picked up some of the books knowing they were some how the reason for John being upset. He looked before seeing something on the inside cover of one of the spell books.
Hey Sherlock If you're interested in maybe meeting for coffee, feel free to call me Lana xo
The girls number was written under the message. Sherlock guessed that this was the reason John was upset, more like jealous. Sherlock sighed and thought about what he could possibly do. He took the first page and ripped it out before crumpling it up and throwing it into the rubbish bin not far from him. He went over and went down the hall to their room. He knocked quietly on the door before walking in. He saw John standing by the window. Sherlock came up quietly behind him and wrapped his arms around his middle. John jumped a little not expecting it.
"Do you really think I would have gone for someone else, let alone a dull girl?" Sherlock asked whispering it into his ear. John shivered under his touch.
"I'm not saying that, it's just why can't others know? Is this something you would rather keep hidden from everyone but the four closest people to us?" John said quietly.
"Well I can't say I consider Mycroft all that close," Sherlock said grumbling slightly.
"Oh hush we both know you care about him. But really, do you not want others to know?"
"Honestly, I though you would be against the idea. I didn't think you cared about others knowing about us as a couple or would bat an eye at something as small as someone asking me out. I didn't want to upset you by telling random fans as you call them that we are together."
"Well I didn't think it would matter until she wrote that in the book. I just didn't want anyone thinking you were available to them."
"Trust me, even if I wasn't with you the last thing I would want to do is take some dull girl out for drinks. She would bore me and I might have had to do something like take her on a case to scare her off."
"Or simply bring her home. I think if anyone saw that human lung on the table last week they would have left faster than they got there," John said laughing lightly as Sherlock lightly slapped him in the arm.
"I will tell others if you want somehow. Are we okay?" Sherlock asked keeping John in a nice hold.
"Yea. We're okay," John said before turning around and kissing Sherlock.
So yay! Sorry it's short but I wanted at least a bit on Sherlock and John's relationship. Soon there will be a little more including John looking up a little m/m porn ;) Can't say I'll be great at knowing what is going on but I'll give it a shot. You'll hear from the killer again soon and the boys will be taking a little visit to his hunting grounds :) Please review! :D
