Stupid Law 26
Sherlock was bored and John was bored. Their game of revenge had reached a stalemate for now and neither could find a decent law for the other to break. Sherlock had received a call that was to take him back to America once again and John wanted to go to…London was so boring! On hearing the request John's eyes lit up and somehow Sherlock knew what was coming.
"John I propose a truce once again in the spirit of a double revenge on a certain Inspector of Scotland Yard. He really has been enjoying this little a game a little too much and I think it is about time he discovered the humiliation it brings…What do you say?" John grinned and nodded in acceptance. This was going to be fun.
"Just one thing Sherlock…how are you going to provide a cover story to get him to America?"
"Well there is no need as the client has requested that a Scotland Yard representative is to accompany us. It would appear they may have gotten wind of our antics on our previous visit!" Sherlock said indignantly.
Two days later the boys sat on a plane which was to take them to Oklahoma. Lestrade sat with a smug grin on his face completely unaware of what was going to happen once they landed. The case was apparently baffling the local cops and this made Sherlock all the more keen to arrive. John hoped it would be an interesting case otherwise Sherlock might turn sulky.
As luck would have it the case did not disappoint, however, as the days passed Lestrade became more and more of an irritation for Sherlock and John knew that revenge would come soon to the Inspector. John had not noted any particularly stupid laws about Oklahoma but Sherlock seemed to have something up his sleeve.
"The case is almost complete so it is some sort of tradition to dine out if I am not mistaken" came Sherlock's voice from the crime scene which they had been visiting for the last four days.
"Sounds good to me!" remarked Lestrade who had been complaining non-stop about the hotel food since they arrived. John shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly getting the feeling that tonight was the night. As they got ready to leave he approached Sherlock to find out.
"Well John, get him to eat my hamburger…that's all we have to do!" Sherlock stated as they caught a cab to the restaurant. Sherlock sauntered off for a few minutes as they waited to be seated saying he needed some headache tablets. John and Lestrade were seated and had ordered before Sherlock returned (John ordering a hamburger for Sherlock). The food arrived and they began to eat, apart from Sherlock who remained still and stared blankly at the table.
"Are you going to eat that?" came Lestrade's voice after fifteen minutes of this. Sherlock shook his head and the Inspector grabbed it off his plate, apparently unsatisfied with his own meal. Within seconds of taking a bite the restaurant was in uproar. Cops came flying through the door, and shouted at Lestrade to put his hands up as he was under arrest.
"What the…" Lestrade managed before he was in handcuffs. He glanced at the detective and the soldier and realised in a split second that he had been tricked. Confirmation came with the officer reading him his rights…
"You sir are under arrest for illegally taking a bite of someone else's hamburger"
"So much for looking after you two!" Lestrade roared as he was taken away to the station to be locked up for the night. "I will get you both for this…Watch your back's boys…watch your backs!"
Sherlock and John just sat back looking very pleased with themselves ordering some rather overpriced dessert and charging it to Scotland Yard.
