Holmes and Lestrade had been planning for a few days now, and everything was now into place. Both men stood in front of the door as the handle started to lower. Both of them tried to hold in their smiles as the target of this whole plan walked in through the door.
Watson was amazed to see the two men gnawing on carrots. But before he could say anything, they both said at the same time, "*munch, munch* what's up doc?"
Watson rolled his eyes as the two roared with laughter and fell onto the floor. Watson walked out of the room for a moment and walked in with a box. Without any expression on his face, he turned the box upside down and out came his pet spider, Hubert (from the chapter April fools), on top of the two men.
Sherlock screamed and flew behind the couth as Lestrade gave a yell of shock and a shudder and backed away.
Watson said in a sad tone, "Mary doesn't want Hubert around the house any more. Do you think you can keep him here for a while?"
LOL, poor Sherlock. Poor spider. This not the Christmas gift I was talking about. That story will be posted at midnight. Cheers!
