Nothing like shared clothing. I love wearing my boyfriend's jackets and he likes me wearing them; I like having something that smells like him and he likes getting back something that smells like me. I wonder why the olfactory sense is so prominent in attraction?
I mentioned in chapter 24 that Sherlock smells faintly of pine (it's in his soap). He also smells like awesome, I'm sure.
He Smells of Pine
This was the last straw.
John shook his head and tried to snap his attention back to his professor, who was giving a critical lesson on brain trauma. However, as his his classmates typed or scribbled down notes, John found himself playing with a thick black jacket between his fingers.
"Shit. Sherlock, did you put the laundry in?"
"No."
"I asked you to last night, Sherlock! Dammit, I don't want to wear the jumpers I've been wearing for two weeks straight..."
"Take my jacket."
John inhaled the scent lingering on the jacket deeply and closed his eyes. I'm in trouble.
Prompt was #49: straw
I'd like to extend my gratitude and love to all those who stick with me and are so kind even though my updating schedule is shoddy. -_- I'm going to have a sixteen-day break off of school and hopefully then I'll be able to get more chapters in. :) To those who even review for me, thank you times a million gazillion. You make my day light up when I see your kind words showing up in my inbox.
On another note, I got a review not long ago by a reviewer who was not logged in (or perhaps doesn't have an account) who called herself Catrina Marlowe. She left the following review on chapter six:
"Aside from the fact that each 'chapter' was only a few sentences long, I was enjoying this until: Inconveniences
Then you seemed to forget both Sherlock and Mycroft were British and morphed them into Americanisms and I stopped reading.
If you can assure me you made a temporary error and they return to being themselves in the next chapter, I shall resume reading and reviewing. If not, I shall, I'm sad to say, not."
I'm sorry to say that I'm not entirely sure what she could be referring to in this chapter. Would you guys like to help me out? I mean, I know that it's just one reviewer who may not even have an account, but I'm curious now.
