It's been a while again, and I'm working on a big, important chapter right now, but I thought I'd write a tiny something so you know I'm still working on this story. Enjoy this short little, not affecting the storyline piece!

"Check,"

"Oh come on, Sherlock, we just started, you can't possibly know you're going to win yet. I haven't even made my first move! Furthermore, this is our first game of chess against each other, so you can't possibly know my strategy,"

"I know you well enough by know to know I'm going to win,"

John moved a pawn.

"Oh bad move. You should have placed that piece there,"

"I can do as I bloody well please, Sherlock. Now shut up and play,"

Sherlock moved a pawn. "I'll shut up if you can take my queen,"

John's eyes shone at the challenge, as Sherlock knew it would. John moved a piece.

"I wouldn't have made that choice either,"

"Well maybe that means I'm being unpredictable and will win,"

"I highly doubt it, you're obviously terrible at the game," Sherlock moved a piece.

"Actually, I've played chess quite a bit. When I was in the hospital I had nothing else to do. I must say I'm not horrible at it," John moved a piece.

"Obviously. Why are we playing muggle chess?"

"Did you delete that? We made a bet that if I managed to get a 100% on a test, we'd play my version,"

Sherlock scuffed and moved a piece.

"What, nothing to say?" John moved a pawn.

"You weren't supposed to ace the test. You were most likely going to get a B," Sherlock moved a pawn.

"Well maybe that goes to show that math isn't everything, and a strong will can get you anywhere," John took his turn.

"Can strong will help you pass the OWLS?" Sherlock took his turn.

"Yes! I just proved that with that test!" John moved.

"You studied," Sherlock moved.

"Because of my strong will!" John moved.

Sherlock rolled his eyes and moved.

"Check,"

"No,"

"Yes! Look! I have you in check!"

"Impossible!"

"Well the facts are right in front of you!"

"You can't possibly have beaten me at chess! You aren't clever enough,"

"Maybe you've underestimated me,"

"Maybe I have,"

Like I said, it's short. I also never said who said what by saying, "said, stated, sighed, etc,". I don't know why. I just sort of felt like it. If you're confused, ask me about it. Reviewers get a reply from Sherlock or John!
