Molly took a deep breath and straightened the hem of her shirt. She reached out and rang the doorbell. The quick and immediate footsteps alerted her to the fact it was John. She was right. John opened the door.
"Hi, Molly. You have more body parts for Sherlock?"
Molly nodded. She held them out. "These at for Sherlock."
He smiled fondly at her. "Thank you for doing this. You don't have to, you now."
"I shouldn't either, but who knows what would happen to the world, no, universe if I didn't." She dimpled. "It's no trouble, really."
John opened the door wider. "Won't you come in? Sherlock is in the kitchen with another one of his experiments."
She walked into the kitchen. "Hello, Sherlock, I have your items."
"You can put them on the counter, Molly." Sherlock looked up and smiled briefly. "And thank you."
And that, was worth all the work she did to get him the body parts. "Sherlock, would you like-"
"You to make me coffee? I would love that, Molly. Thank you. The coffee is, well, you know where the coffee is."
Molly sighed and began to make him coffee. "John, would you like some?"
He shook his head. "No thank you, Molly." He smiled at her gratefully. She nodded and went back to her work. After she had finished, she set the coffee in front of Sherlock. She glanced around quickly and wiped her hands on the front of her pants.
"Well, I guess I'll go now."
John got up from his chair. ""Thanks for coming, Molly, and for making the coffee."
She nodded uncertainly and bit her lip. "You're welcome, John." She turned to Sherlock. "Sherlock? I'm leaving now."
He finally looked up from his experiment. "Would you like to have dinner?"
She gaped at him. "Dinner? Why?"
He sighed in exasperation. "Because I believe the human body needs to eat, and that's what you do for your girlfriend."
Molly's smiled could have blinded him. "I would love to, Sherlock. When are we eating?"
"Right now." He grabbed his coat and hat. "Let's go."
She blinked and stepped back. "Okay." She turned back and waved at John. "See you."
He waved back. Girlfriend? He mouthed. Molly nodded. He grinned. "About time." he muttered under his breath. "Well, have fun." Once they were gone, he pulled out his phone and texted Lestrade.
You'll never believe what just happened.
