Ohmygosh 10th chapter go me and my followers. This is going uncomfortably fast. I first posted this like five days ago.

I thought I was going to post this yesterday but then tumblr.

*clears throat awkwardly* please enjoy this chapter


January 3

Do you have a lunch date with Tiffany today? SH [sent at 11:23]

Again, it's Tracie, and yes. JW [sent at 11:24]

Why? JW [sent at 11:24]

No reason. Have fun. SH [sent at 11:24]

Thank you, I guess. JW [sent at 11:25]

Are you coming right back to the flat after work? SH [sent at 11:25]

I'm assuming so, why? JW [sent at 11:26]

No reason. SH [sent at 11:26]

You're asking some interesting questions for 'no reason'. JW [sent at 11:26]

Am I? SH [sent at 11:27]

You are. JW [sent at 11:27]

Sorry. SH [sent at 11:27]

Did you just apologize? JW [sent at 11:28]

I've apologized before. SH [sent at 11:28]

I never know if your being serious or not. JW [sent at 11:28]

*You're. SH [sent at 11:29]

Don't be a git. JW [sent at 11:29]

Sorry. SH [sent at 11:29]

Again! Are you being serious or not? We should have a code word or something for when you're being serious. JW [sent at 11:30]

How about 'sorry'. SH [sent at 11:30]

You are impossible. JW [sent at 11:31]

John. SH [sent at 13:43]

John. SH [sent at 13:49]

John. SH [sent at 13:52]

Don't. JW [sent at 13:53]

But I'm bored. SH [sent at 13:53]

And I'm at work. JW [sent at 13:54]

I know you're at work, I'm not daft. SH [sent at 13:56]

You're daft enough to think it's okay to text me when I'm at work. JW [sent at 13:56]

I know it's not okay, but that doesn't stop me from doing it. SH [sent at 13:56]

Can't you just retreat into your mind palace or something? JW [sent at 13:57]

I haven't got a case to think about. SH [sent at 13:57]

Ask Lestrade for one, then. JW [sent at 13:57]

If he had one, he would have already given it to me. SH [sent at 13:58]

Not necessarily, I have a feeling he tries to go as long as he can on his own before calling you. JW [sent at 13:58]

Why would he do that? SH [sent at 13:59]

Because calling you makes it look like he can't do it. JW [sent at 13:59]

He can't. SH [sent at 13:59]

Exactly. JW [sent at 14:00]

You were right, he did have something. SH [sent at 14:34]

I told you. JW [sent at 14:35]

Don't start. SH [sent at 14:35]

Never mind about getting back to the flat right after work, I'll be gone until at least 22:30. SH [sent at 14:35]

Alright, I probably wasn't going to come right back anyway. JW [sent at 14:36]

Are you going to ask me about the case? SH [sent at 14:36]

Nope. JW [sent at 14:36]

Fine. SH [sent at 14:36]


If you have any ideas for Johnlock, I would be happy to steal them (maybe).

If you ever think the chapter is going to fast or doesn't make much sense, it's probably because I mostly get an idea, then mindlessly write stuff down and focus on Panic! at the Disco blasting through my earphones. *muttering lyrics*

Reviewing is still nice and stuff...
