Hello, readers. We are so very sorry for the long wait. We've been busy with school, and our own Fanfictions. You should check out Grace's Underland Chronicles fanfic, Return to The Underland, and Emma's Criminal Minds fanfic, A New Member, if you'd like. We promise we will post more often.

This is from Anna's POV.

Chapter 6

I must have blacked out in the ambulance because I woke up in the hospital.

I looked over to see Julie and Sherlock sitting in the chairs near the hospital bed. I turned over on my uninjured arm. "Wheres John?" I mumbled

"Working," Julie said. "He said he'd drop by here if he has time."

I sat up with my back on huge pillows on the bed. "Sherlock, we're you waiting for me?" I said with a grin.

He sat there in silence and ignored my question. Then, I saw a slight shade of pink cover his cheeks, I stayed quiet

Julie looked from me to Sherlock. Her forehead was wrinkled in concentration. She didn't say what she was trying to figure out.

At this point I was grinning ear to ear.

Julie noticed and almost laughed. "What are you smiling about?" She said.

"Nothing." I said almost about to break

"What is it?" She persisted.

"Nothing." Now I started laughing uncontrollably, and the looks on their faces didn't help.

Julie sighed and rolled her eyes. "I really wish you'd tell me what is so funny."

"Fine" I managed to say "Sherlock was blushing." I laughed even harder At this point Julie started to giggle. She tried not to but couldn't help it.

"I was not blushing." Sherlock said, turning the slightest bit darker than before.

Julie stopped laughing and caught her breath. "You were blushing," she said, a bit teasingly. Then her face became serious with the same quizzical expression as before.

"The only reasons that you'd be here either Julie or John wanted to stay, or..." She grinned larger "You were worried."

"Being worried would irrational, it's only a shoulder wound," Sherlock said.

"You were worried at the factory."

"The factory wasn't a hospital."

"So? Worried is worried." Sherlock stayed quiet for a minute. "Sherlock Holmes was worried about me!" I laughed

"Hmm," Julie said. "Perhaps Sherlock is human."

"Perhaps." I said grinning at Sherlock

Just then John walked in to see me and Julie laughing at Sherlock.

"What is going on?" John asked.

"Sherlock blushed and now they're having an argument about how he was worried about her." Julie explained between laughing

"Sherlock blushed?" John asked, bewildered.

"Yes." I laughed

"I did not blush." Sherlock stated, slightly annoyed.

"Yeah, you did. I saw it."

John looked at Anna, his doctor's instincts kicking in. "How are you doing?" He asked.

"Good, but they could have chose a better color sling."

Julie laughed and said:

"Of course that's all you care about," turning to John she added, "they gave her enough painkillers to kill a dog."

"Yup." I said still looking at my sling. "A black sling would have been nice. I wanted a black sling not blue." I said with an annoyed tone.

"Why black?" Julie asked.

"Because I like black slings. They're awesome. And it's hard to hide a stain on a blue sling."

Julie smiled and rolled her eyes in a way that said 'typical Anna'.

"I'm starving." I whined. "I want a burger."

"You don't want the burgers here," John said. "Trust me."

"Then go out and get me a burger. A really big burger."

"Well," John said. "That's not exactly allowed... I'll be back in about ten minuets."

"Can I go with you?" Julie asked.

"Sure." They walked out while I sat there. Alone. With Sherlock. I could tell this was going to be a long ten minutes.

"Haha, Johns taking Julie out to eat." I laughed "If she heard me say that she would kill me."

"Then I would have to solve your case."

"Sherlock, she wouldn't literally kill me. It was a joke."

"Oh."

"I was wrong. You aren't human."

"I'm fairly certain I am."

"Wait." I said suddenly "You're Spock!" I shouted grinning

"What?" He said confusedly.

I laughed and sighed "Nothing," I smiled "Spock."

He sat there with a confused look on his face.

"Spock is an unemotional character from Star Trek, which is a show I like. He's also smart, and now that I think of it, a lot like you." I said kinda fast

"Was that a complement?" Sherlock asked, smiling ever so slightly.

"What? No-well, yes-But I was just-"

"Just what?"

"Well, I was just saying-" I blushed

"Just saying what?"

"I was just saying that-you are smart- you're a genius. You're the Sherlock Holmes-" I stopped and blushed more.

"What does that mean?" Sherlock said, his smile slowly growing

"Um-Well-" I was now a very deep red, I cleared my throat "When's John getting here? He's been gone a while."

"What does it mean?" Sherlock said, not buying my distraction.

"Well-You're brilliant, smarter than the entire human race. And don't get me started on your loo-" I stopped before even finishing the word. I blushed more

"On my what?" Sherlock said, with his smile still growing.

"Uh-well-" I said, starting to become incapable of talking "On your look-" I said, flinching at 'looks'

"We're back." Julie said holding a bag full of food. I could smell it.

She looked at me, then Sherlock, then me again.

"Finally!" I said, before she could ask. I snatched the bag from her and took a bite from the burger

"You never finished you sentence." Sherlock said, still slightly smiling.

I gave Sherlock the death stare "Not at this moment Sherlock." I said, with my blush still covering my face.

"Should we go?" Julie asked with a smile.

"No!" I shouted "Um, I mean no, that's fine. Please stay." I said quietly

"You better eat that burger quickly," John said, probably trying to cover up the awkwardness. "A nurse or doctor could show up at any time."

"Sounds good." I said with my burger half gone.

I was soon done with my burger. "Here." I handed the bag to John to throw it away.

"So," Julie said. "What were you two talking about while we were gone?"

"Nothing." I quickly said. My blush slowly returning.

"If you insist," Julie said slyly.

"Yes. I insist. Greatly."

"I wouldn't say we were talking about nothing" Sherlock said with his smile returning

"It was nothing that other people should learn about." I said blushing more

"I want to learn more." Julie said smiling

"Julie!" John said scoldingly

I glared at Julie. She said nothing, having turned a light shade of pink after John reprimanded her.

"Anna was kindly giving me a compliment." Sherlock said with a slight smile

I slightly sunk in my seat.I blushed and said "It wasn't a compliment."

"What did she say?" John said curiously

"She was just saying how smart I am."

"No I wasn't." I quickly said, my face getting darker

Julie seemed to realize that things had gone a bit too far.

"I wonder how long they plan on keeping you here," she said quickly. "We should ask a nurse." She pressed the button by my bed to call one.

"Thank you." I said in almost a whisper.

Soon a nurse walked in. "What do you need?" She asked pleasantly.

"How long will I be staying here?" I said with a smile at her

"About three days," she said. "Depending on how quickly you recover."

"Thank you miss." I said still smiling

"If that's all I'll be going," the nurse said, glancing up at a clock. "Visiting hours are almost over."

"Then I suppose we should be going too," Julie said.

We all said our good-byes and the three left, promising to visit me tomorrow.
