So I wanted to get two chapters in. I had a hard time with some awesomeness named Tera and my second all time fave anime is on netflix! (Samurai Champloo is so the best!) But I've already planned then ending so get ready for that and some more Sherlocky goodness!
John sat at his desk, looking at patients and going about his day, but all day worrying about Sherlock and Carmella at home by themselves.
It was bad enough that Sherlock was home alone but when he had Carmella…John shuddered.
He'd come to realize that Carmella and Sherlock where two and the same. After the pranks they both pulled that morning and that they grew up together he really didn't want to think of all the hell they could raise without someone watching them, and Adrian would be no help at all.
"Doctor?"
John snapped out of his daze and looked at the young woman in front of him, "Oh, I'm terribly sorry, um…"
"Melinda," she said.
"Right, right sorry." John shook his head trying to free his thoughts, "I'm terribly sorry, what seems to be the trouble?"
"My elbow doctor," the woman raised her left elbow up to see the pale flesh.
"Right then," John straighten the woman's arm and touched her arm lightly, checking for any swelling, "Any kind of pain?"
"Well when I was brushing my hair this morning it made an awful pop sound." She said and John looked at her hair, it was short and in a pixie cut. It wasn't like she had to pull it all the way through so the range was short.
"And did that hurt?" John asked and bent her arm.
"It startled me, then tying my dress was a little more stiff than normal." She said and John looked.
Her light pink sundress had a small tie in a lopsided bow and it was covered in a floral pattern, "Well it looks lovely."
The woman giggled, "Thank you doctor."
John smiled and motioned for her to sit, "Do you sleep on your side?"
"Well yes, rather, I start on my right side and end on my left." She said and absentmindedly rubbed her arm.
"Well this is probably nothing then," John pulled out his doctor's note pad, "But, I would like you to see a specialist, just to double check, alright?"
"Alright." The woman said and took the note John handed to her.
"Alright then, have a nice day." John said and opened the door for her.
"Thank you, oh and doctor?" the woman said before John could make it to his office.
"Yes?" John said and turned back.
"She'll come around." The woman smiled.
John blinked, confused and came over to her, "I'm sorry?"
"I said she'll come around." The woman kept a warm smile on.
"I'm sorry but I don't know what you mean." John said.
Now the woman patted John's arm, "You looked worried and concerned. That kind of look on a man's face makes me think he's worried about his wife. I've been around."
John looked even more confused, "I don't have a wife."
The woman blinked, surprised, "Girlfriend?"
"'Fraid not."
"…boyfriend?" the woman asked.
John's mind went to Sherlock and waking up to his naked form; his cheeks turned a light pink, "No."
The woman smiled knowingly, "He'll come around."
"Please have a nice day." John stressed and showed the woman the door.
The other doctors snickered as he past; he blushed darker and closed his office door with a bit of a slam. He sat at his desk with a sigh.
Sherlock was not his boyfriend! He was not gay! He didn't care what Sherlock was but he, John Watson was not gay. But…
Sherlock did make John feel different. Often like more of an adult then he should, a little awkward sometimes, dumb other times but the underline feeling…what was it? He did admire Sherlock, why wouldn't he? He didn't quite look up to him. He did like being around the arrogant bastard, that devilish man, that attractive man.
What?
John shook his head. Sure fine, Sherlock was a good looking man, why not? But why was John thinking about-
"Dr. Watson." He heard the intercom in his office buzz.
John got up and shook his head free of these thoughts and got up to answer the intercom, "Yes?"
"Your boyfriend is here." The receptionist snickered.
John threw the door open, startling everyone around him. He marched to the waiting area, eyes closed and fuming.
"Look Sherlock, I don't have time-"
"Expecting someone else?"
John opened his eyes to see Adrian smirking down at him, a bag of food in his arms.
"Adrian? What are you doing here?"
"Sherlock said you were at work and I can't go see them alone are you kidding me? They're probably dissecting some poor person to see his reaction while living and having his-"Adrian started but seeing all the horrified looks on the people around him stopped, "Too much?"
John held his thumb and index finger close, "Just a little."
"I'll be outside." Adrian said and went out to wait for John.
John didn't even have to ask, he was shooed out since no one else would want to see him that day that had heard Adrian.
Great, now people will think I live with some sort of nut case demon.
But the more John thought about it the more he could see Carmella and Sherlock duck tapping someone down and pulling out organs to see if they caused real pain. He shuddered again, that is why he didn't want to leave them alone.
He pulled on his coat and went outside where Adrian was calmly waiting. John started to walk down the streets with Adrian, it was quite but a question kept prodding John in the back of his mind.
"Adrian?"
"Hm?" Adrian said waiting to cross the street.
"How did you and Carmella meet?" John asked.
Adrian looked back and blinked, "Me and Car?"
"Yes." John answered.
"Well," Adrian answered and started to cross the street with a smile…
Adrian crossed the school yard his first day was tomorrow and he really didn't want to be in a new place and start over.
He got to the front door, he needed his paper work and sitting on a bench near a flower bed was a girl with long brown pig tails and a white floral dress singing.
Adrian smiled seeing the girl but saw a tear roll down her cheek, he crossed the yard again, "Hey, are you ok?" he asked.
The girl looked up, eyes red and unshed tears in her eye, "Y-Yes." She said, a thick British accent tinting her words.
"What's wrong?"Adrian asked sitting beside her.
"I didn't say nothing was wrong." The girl pouted and looked away.
"Anything."
She looked at him, he was a head taller than her and she blinked the tears from her eyes, "What?"
"Anything, you should have said anything instead of nothing."
She giggled and rubbed her eyes, "You sound like my friend."
Adrian smiled, "Well I got kicked out of my old school so I don't have any friends, I could use one."
The girl smiled and held her hand out, "I'm Carmella."
"And from that day on I've been stuck with her to get me out of trouble!" Adrian laughed aloud with John in his wake.
