'I'm sorry?' said Sherlock.

'You heard what I said' replied Lyanna as she sat down in Sherlock's chair

'Of course I am free' replied Sherlock

'Good' said Lyanna 'Because we are going to The Swan for dinner'

'We are?' inquired Sherlock

'Indeed' replied Lyanna

'What do you know?' inquired Sherlock

'What ever do you mean?' inquired Lyanna with a smile.

'Well Lyanna, you being you, you would not just want to go out for dinner just to get to know me' replied Sherlock 'That means you know something, something that is going to happen'

'Saturday night entertainment' replied Lyanna with a knowing smirk

Sherlock smiled.

'Are you up for it Mr Holmes?' inquired Lyanna

'I would not miss it for the world' replied Sherlock with a grin.

'Perfect' replied Lyanna with a smile.

Lyanna stood up and headed into the kitchen. Just then, the door of the flat opened and in walked John looking rather pleased with himself.

'Ah John – perfect timing' said Lyanna, sticking her head out of the kitchen 'Coffee?'

'That would be lovely, thank you Lyanna' replied John with a smile.

Lyanna nodded before heading back into the kitchen.

-A few minutes later-

Lyanna walked back into the living room and handed John his coffee.

'Thank you' said John

Lyanna then sat down in Sherlock's chair.

Sherlock gave a small smile.

'So Sherlock' began Lyanna 'Did you find a case in the end?'

'None worth my time' replied Sherlock.

'Honestly Sherlock' said John 'People come to you foe help, you could try and be slightly sympathetic'

'Sympathy will not get you anywhere' replied Lyanna 'Caring is not an advantage'

Sherlock stopped and stared at her.

'You're as bad as him' said John, motioning over to Sherlock.

Lyanna laughed lightly, but her eyes never left Sherlock's; and Sherlock's eyes never left her.

John noticed the tension and decided to interrupt.

'Well, this has been lovely, but I really must be going; lots to do' he said, as he stood up and slipped on his coat.

He received no response. John just sighed and rolled his eyes, before shutting the door of the flat behind him.

'Coffee?' inquired Lyanna, breaking the silence

'As always' replied Sherlock

Lyanna smirked before getting up to make Sherlock a coffee.

'Oh, and Lyanna-' Sherlock began.

'Yes?' inquired Lyanna

'The dress code for this evening is formal. This means I expect to see you in a dress' replied Sherlock

He smirked in triumph as he heard Lyanna groan from inside the kitchen.

'Fine, just this once' replied Lyanna, as she handed Sherlock his coffee 'Any new cases?'

'Unfortunately not' replied Sherlock as he pulled out a laptop.

'Is that my laptop?' inquired Lyanna

'Obviously' replied Sherlock 'I have no new cases'

'What has that got to do with you using my laptop?' inquired Lyanna

'Bored' replied Sherlock

'Meaning you are going to successfully break into my laptop' said Lyanna

'Of course' replied Sherlock 'I am not expecting it to be Fort Knox'

Lyanna smirked slightly

'You may be surprised' she replied as she pulled on her coat and grabbed her hat.

'Where are you going?' inquired Sherlock, looking up at Lyanna.

'To reserve a table at The Swan' replied Lyanna 'I shall be back soon'

Sherlock waited until Lyanna had slammed the door behind her, before he got up and stood by the window. He pulled the curtain back and peered outside. He watched as Lyanna pulled her long coat tighter around her, as she battled against the wind. He smiled as he watched Lyanna head up the street towards The Swan. He continued to watch, even once Lyanna was out of sight. However, the sounds of the flat door opening, interrupted him.

'Everything alright Sherlock?' inquired John 'Where has Lyanna got to?

'Ah John' said Sherlock 'I am glad you are back'

'You are?' inquired John

'Yes' replied Sherlock 'I need to borrow your phone'

John just rolled his eyes before handing Sherlock his phone

'Thank you' replied Sherlock, as he took John's phone.

John watched as Sherlock tapped away on the phone, before handing it back to John.

'Thanks' said John, as he placed his phone back in his pocket.

Sherlock nodded, before grabbing Lyanna's laptop and taking a seat in his chair.

John proceeded to then sit in his chair. Silence filled the room.

The door of the flat flung open and the silence was broken.

'Have you figured it out yet?' inquired Lyanna, as she took off her coat and hung it up 'Hello John'

'Um, hi' replied John 'Figured out what, exactly?'

'My laptop passcode' replied Lyanna

'Well Sherlock?' said John

Sherlock ignored them and continued to type away on Lyanna's laptop.

'We shall take that as a no then' replied John.

Lyanna laughed.

'Well John-' began Lyanna 'Have you got a suit for this evening?'

'Oh no' John cried 'I knew there something else I had to do'

Lyanna smiled as she watched John pull on his coat.

'Thanks Lyanna' he said 'Bye'

'Goodbye John' Lyanna called after him, as the door of the flat slammed shut.

'Well' said Sherlock, as he slammed Lyanna's laptop shut 'I have a very important meeting that I cannot miss'

'Alright' replied Lyanna 'Just be back here before 8'

'Of course' replied Sherlock, as he grabbed his coat and left the flat

'Goodbye' Lyanna called after him

She heard the downstairs door slammed shut, so she stood up and grabbed her laptop off Sherlock's chair.

'Not Fort Knox Sherlock?' Lyanna smiled, as she spoke to Sherlock's empty chair 'I agree – this is much harder'

Lyanna laughed lightly as she tapped in her passcode – Sherlock Holmes.

She then yawned. It was only then did Lyanna realise how tired she was. She placed her laptop on the arm of Sherlock's chair, before settling down on the sofa and letting herself fall asleep.

-3 hours later-

'Lyanna' a soft voice called.

No response.

'Lyanna' they tried again, this time shaking her slightly

A slight murmur was the only response they received from Lyanna.

Sherlock sighed slightly, before attempting to awaken Lyanna for the third time

'Mycroft's here' Sherlock whispered in Lyanna's ear.

'What?!' Lyanna cried, as she bolted upright.

Sherlock laughed.

'I was merely joking Lyanna' Sherlock explained 'It is now 7 o'clock and you need to get ready'

'Ready for what?' Lyanna inquired, rubbing her eyes slightly

'Our Saturday night entertainment' replied Sherlock

'Of course' replied Lyanna 'How could I forget?' she said, standing up

'Do you remember what I said about the dress?' inquired Sherlock

'Oh yes' replied Lyanna 'Unfortunately I do not own a dress, and it is too late to get one now' she said, smirking in triumph.

'Which is why I bought one for you' replied Sherlock as he handed Lyanna a bag

'Go change' he said, as he watched Lyanna's smirk turn into a scowl.

He smirked as she took the bag and headed for the bathroom to get ready.
