My William,
I think it's a lovely thought to do something for Mycroft on his birthday. I would love to help. We'll think of something he's sure to love. I'll definitely bake a cake for the occasion. You could lend a hand, but I can't promise there won't be any frosting wars.
You use your mind palace to memorize every detail of the moments we spend together? Sherlock, that is the sweetest thing you have ever told me. I wish I could do the same, but it would take years to build up a mind palace of my own. But I suppose these letters and my journaling are my way of remembering the same things. Last weekend was absolutely wonderful. And just so you know, I'm always up for delicious, messy snogging.
I am happy you liked my little puzzle, simple as it was. I am thrilled to have an earlier wedding date. I would never rethink this decision, Sherlock. I'm marrying you and that's final, mister. You're stuck with me. I phoned your parents today and asked your father if he would give me away to you. He was thrilled, to say the least. My parents would've liked you. My mum ran a little café in Sussex where I grew up. She loved to bake confectionary goods and I learned those skills from her, so you can thank her for teaching me how to perfect the art of baking ginger nuts. My dad was a policeman but later went into forensics up until he grew ill. I followed in his footsteps a bit there. Sorry, I'm rambling.
Too bad you weren't here earlier when Anderson came in—actually, it's probably a good thing you weren't, now that I think about it. He congratulated me on our engagement and asked me to extend it to you. Greg was losing his patience when Anderson insisted on telling me his theory of how you had survived that fall. I think he watches too much James Bond! What a way to be snogged! I'll tell you everything when I get home later. Honestly, though, if he predicted something would happen between us, I feel absolutely blind because I never expected it. People can be quite surprising, I suppose. I've got an autopsy at two, so I'll have to end this here. I love you, bumblebee! Mwah!
Always and forever,
Molly xxx
