Prompt: Tight Shirts
One year. John smiled looking down at the newspaper, he somehow managed not to kill Sherlock and actually have and maintain a pretty decent relationship. Sherlock, being who he was, obviously was not that big on anniversaries, or any holidays for that matter. So naturally John didn't expect anything.
They had a normal morning, showers, breakfast, well Sherlock watching John eat breakfast. John had thought about getting a Sherlock a present, but what did one get Sherlock Holmes? A new scarf? Another skull? Anything John could think of Sherlock would surely disregard. He decided to call Mycroft.
"What would be a suitable present for Sherlock?"
"Ah John, hello"
"Any ideas?"
"Sherlock doesn't do presents."
"So he has never received a present?"
"Not one he has actually appreciated no. Shirts, trinkets and gadgets are all pointless to him. He deems almost everything insipid and not worth his time"
"So no ideas then"
"Get him something useful John."
"Thanks I guess"
Something useful. Well at least it was a start right? John thought for a moment. What could he get Sherlock that would be considered useful. John laughed the idea suddenly coming to him. He knew exactly what to get him. John arrived at the flat after picking up Sherlock's present after work. He walked into the flat to see Sherlock sitting on his chair with his knees brought up to his chest, obviously deep in thought.
"Sherlock." John called "Sherlock!" He said a bit more louder drawing Sherlock out of his trance. "Sherlock I know you're not big on gifts, or holidays of any sort, but it's our one year anniversary I thought I should get you Something." Sherlock wrinkled his nose in dissatisfaction.
"What did you get me John?" Sherlock replied glaring at him now. "Well, I thought because you are always wearing those ridiculously tight shirts, I would get you something that fits a little better. John took the wrapped box out from behind his back and handed it to Sherlock.
"You did not."
"Oh but I did."
"John no. This is hideous" Sherlock whined rolling his eyes and pulling the colorful jumper out of the box.
"Oh come on put it on!" John laughed.
"Bugger off" Sherlock spat, throwing the jumper at John, who threw it right back.
"I'm serious Sherlock, you'll look nice" John pushed.
Sherlock gave him a look of pure disdain, before slipping the horrid jumper on. John beamed, smiling at Sherlock
"I hate you" He hissed
"No you don't"
"Idiot."
