The Things I Do For You, Sherlock Holmes!
Chapter Six - Have A Great Night, Boys!
"And an /especially/ happy New Year's to our greatest assets, Mr Sherlock Holmes and his faithful blogger John Watson," Lestrade paused to wink, "have a great night, boys! See you in the New Year, everyone." While everyone at the Yard applauded at the conclusion of the DI's speech, and the channel moved on to display an address by some politician, both men laughed in their flat. John gently took the remote from Sherlock's hand, turning off the TV and resting a hand on his friend's thigh. "I truly have had a great night, Sherlock. Thank you," the ex-soldier whispered, resting his head on the other's shoulder.
Sherlock gently wrapped his arm around John, smiling down at him, "And it truly was no trouble, John. I enjoyed myself too – very much so." He looked out at the dark sky that sparkled with a million stars. "It's getting late. You should head to bed."
"You won't come? I-I mean…" John turned crimson, flushing and hiding his face in Sherlock's shoulder. Whoops. "I didn't mean that how it sounded, exactly, I-I…"
His friend grinned, "I know what you meant, John. It's fine."
"Oh…okay. Maybe we'll go after midnight. It is New Year's day, so we should see it through to the end."
"As you wish, John."
The doctor refilled their glasses with a smile. "You're being very nice today."
Feigning offence, the detective scoffed, "What's that supposed to mean?"
"Nothing," John mumbled quickly, grinning, "just allow me to enjoy…this."
Hello everyone!
Sorry to keep you waiting for the kiss ;)
