Spillage
pairing: Albert James Moriarty x Fem!Reader
summary: Albert’s favourite wine is spilled and now he has to clean it up :(
warnings: smut, erotic content, unprotected sex!!!
The hour was late and Albert was still yet to return to your shared bedroom.
Everyone in the Moriarty manor decided to celebrate a recent victory taking down a nobleman that had been troublesome for quite some time.
However you couldn’t find it in yourself to join the celebration as you remained tired throughout the day and had returned to your room rather early. William did the same to correct some students test and Herder…
well he’s Herder, putting something together you assumed.
When it comes to celebrations of course there is all sorts of alcohol.
Of course it was Moran who didn’t hesitate to start the drinking early.
How could Albert refuse ?
You found yourself laying just in your undergarments along with one of Alberts white dress shirts that practically engulfed you. The buttons all open exposing your body underneath as the room had a tendency to become quiet warm with the heavy sheets even with the window slightly opened. A book.
Of course the calmness couldn’t last long.
The door practically swung open as the head of the manor walked in causing you to practically throw your book away in such sudden fright.
“Are you tipsy, Albert ?” You sigh, watching his every move as he walked in confident yet a slight trip to his step. His blazer out of sight he always looked fine in his suits.
Tightly gripped in his hand was a new bottle of his favourite wine half empty of course.
“Of course not, y/n.” He smirks. A familiar glow in his emerald eyes. He runs his hand through his typically combed back hair and a few loose strands fall over his forehead making him appear messy and desirable.
“Come to bed, beloved.” You pat the spot beside as if you were trying to convince a child that it was bedtime.
“You’re more so the lord of wine rather than lord of crime.” You roll your eyes, rubbing your hand up and down his back in a comforting manner.
“What’s this ?” He simply asks.
His eyes practically glowed at the sight of you his darling Wearing nothing but your undergarments along with one of his dress shirts. Overcome with tiredness you failed to even button the shirt, your stomach on view. Just like how he liked it.
“I didn’t think you’d notice.” You simply state.
“I’d be a fool not to notice.”
For a small intimate moment he presses his lips against yours before going back to taking a swig from the bottle.
Such a gentleman.
“”We’ll I’m sorry my lips don’t taste like wine, Albert !” You scoff at the sight an amused glow in his emerald eyes.
With a smirk on his wet lips Albert turns towards you and in an instant cages you in one arm
Suddenly Albert tips the expensive bottle and the warm red liquid splashed your belly and rolls down your side, staining the silk sheets.
“Albert !” You jump, your attempts to sit up fail as his arm keeps you still. He towers over you, quite the intimidating sight.
“Louis helped me change these sheets just this morning !”
His tongue pressed flat against your stomach licking up whatever was left of the wine like a starved man.
You gasp at the feeling of Albert licking the scarlet liquid from your belly and suddenly that familiar tingle starts riling up inside of you.
“Albert-
“I’ve missed this.” He whispers to himself.
It was only then did you realise he wasn’t as drunk as you originally thought he was.
He always had that certain smirk on his lips.
His tounge invades your mouth, wine spilling and running down your chin
“It seems you need cleaning kissing down from your lips to your neck.
“I don’t recall having wine splashed on my neck ?” You groan, Albert’s wet lips pressing against under your jaw all the while his fingers effortlessly grasp at your underwear. He playfully slaps at your hips silently telling you to raise them. You comply shimmying slightly while whines escape past your lips due to the lack of contact. But as soon as Albert removed your clothing he was quick to return the warmth of his touch.
He licks a long stripe of your cunt taking his time like he would sipping his wine.
His emerald eyes roll to the back of his head as you grind your cunt against his scarlet stained tongue. His brown locks feel so soft as they slip through your fingers as you grip at Albert hair holding him in place as he satisfys himself by enjoying his meal.
You learned quite early on to never interrupt Albert while he was in pure bliss.
But the cravings that rise inside of you make you suddenly wanting more. You practically have to pull Albert off of you to gain back his attention.
He always had his priorities straight.
“I’m here, my love. I’ll have your legs shaking in no time.”
You don’t hesitate in helping Albert remove his clothing while typically you would admire Albert in his nicely fitted suit, in this moment of time you’d rather see it be removed…more often.
The lamp by your bedside leaves the room in an orange glow makes Albert’s skin glow as his dress shirt is finally remover. A wave of greediness washes over you as you run you hand up and down his glistening body from his nice shoulders till just above his suit pants.
It doesn’t take long before his pants are removed and you’re suddenly too shy to look despite knowing not only the captivating appearance of his aching cock but also the sensation that it caused inside of you.
“I’m taking you now, y/n.” He assures, his hand massaging your waist. His eyes flickered down to the sight of your wet cunt, eagerly wanting to dive into his desert. You’ve both enjoyed the pleasure of love making to eacherother for a long time and yet on every occasion you’re both suddenly filled with giddiness and relaxation which come from the complete trust you both hold deeply for one another.
“Then take me, Albert.” You smile, no longer being able to hold back.
You’re connected not only physically but emotionally too. The pleasure not only feels good but Albert’s smile as he stares deeply into your eyes make you more than content.
He takes you just as good as he always has. Albert practically does all the work and yet with the pace of his thrusts you understand that he prefers it this way.
You don’t mind. The only sounds evident in the dimly lit room was your gasps of pleasure and Albert’s groans that sounded like music to your ears. Though the sound was of skin slapping was becoming much more louder.
“Don’t be shy now. You know how to use that voice of yours.”
If they hadn’t already, your ears had blushed red at his constant teasing. Yet really you couldn’t get enough of it despite how embarrassed you may of seemed.
His thrusts were deep as one of his hands rested by your hand holding himself up as his other was stained with scarlet, groping your left breast, clear determination evident on his soft yet toned features.
He soon presses soft little kisses between your breasts. He always shows the same affection with both of your breasts. You had to laugh at how considerate Albert was towards them. Your highs come when Albert leans up and presses a considerably slow kiss against your lips, purposely avoiding tongue making you wanting more. He couldn’t whether your lips were bruised or simply stained by the wine. Either way he liked the sight.
His eyes glow with not only lust but also with admiration as he brushes strands of hair away from your forehead, his touch being so gentle compared to his thrusts.
He doesn’t pull out he remains inside of you. He doesn’t hesitate to move on with the constant kissing onto your neck.
Albert was practically addicted to the sight of your newly bruised neck being mixed with the staining shade of red wine.
“I think the celebration is over.” You breathlessly sigh, running your hand through his dark hair.
“On the contrary.” He doesn’t hesitate to continue his attack on your neck.
“I think it’s just starting.”

hi! your imagine was amazing, thank you so much for answering. i hope you don’t mind but may i request a mycroft x reader again but with some angst, where they have a really bad argument? they can break up or reconcile - it’s up to you!
Argument -Mycroft Holmes x GN Reader-
———
!! Angst with comfort !!
Gender Neutral reader
!! TW !! : Argument and smoking/nicotine mentions
Romantic relationship
———
Word count: 1098 words
A/n: (I have returned !!) I chose to have a happy ending, I hope you’re fine with that ! I also have no idea what the argument should be about, so I did not specify it, I hope you also do not mind that
This is serving as such a good distraction from the suffocating air in this plane 😭😭
———
It was a rainy day, both on the inside and out. You are laying on a relaxing and comfortable bed, the one that you and Mycroft shared. Usually, the two of you would be resting together, but last night was contradictive. Mycroft did not return home, he had most likely been staying in his office for the night.
You knew clearly what was the cause of this, during the night before yesterday, the two of you had an argument, not pleasant at all. “I despise you.” His words hurt like a excruciating stab wound, engraved onto your brain, haunting you.
The curtains were not open, but a faint luminescence emits still from them. The silence filling the air is harmonized by the rain, softly tapping at your window. At first, the tapping was simply background music, but now it seemed to become louder and louder, driving you to the brink of insanity as you hid under the warm blanket.
You decide to finally let go of the comforting embrace of your blanket which is as soft as a feather. You begin to sit up against the chilly bed frame. Your eyes are slightly swollen from the tears of last night mixed with the fact how you did not get the recommended amount of sleep, no, way less than that.
You simply sit there, blankly staring down the thin strips of light that had succeeded in escaped the cover of the gloomy curtains. You slowly and painfully recall the recent events, fatigue weighing down on you as you do.
It was presumptively one of the worst fights you’ve ever had with Mycroft, not psychical, but equally painful. You sat on your soft bed, rethinking the whole conversation over and over again, recalling every single tiny detail as if it only happened seconds ago.
By the time you realized you should perhaps head out for a breather, hours had passed since you sat up, the rain had died down. Getting out of bed was not difficult, you were wide awake ages ago. The very moment you step out from your blanket, the icy cold air bites at your skin.
After getting dressed and brushing your teeth you head straight outside, forgetting about breakfast entirely. It wasn’t too early in the morning, you stuff your house keys into your pocket, the sound of steady footsteps arising from your shoes. The air was particularly nice, cool and fresh, just what you needed.
The grass was damp, water droplets still resting on the emerald leaves that sprout from the earthy dirt. Every wave of sound was automatically blocked out by your ears, granting you the calmness you had wished for. The frown painted on your face, at long last, disappeared.
It was late in the evening when you finally returned home. During your stroll you had purchased some delectable food at a befitting bakery and had a cup of warm coffee.
You approach the front door to your and Mycroft’s shared house. By the amount of times you saw the door, you could tell when someone entered after you left. After you left the door, it had been unlocked from the outside and then locked from the inside. You stood there, slowly extending a hand to unlock the door, puzzled at who could and would enter.
It appeared you forgot about him, you had forgotten about Mycroft for a good couple of hours. “Mycroft…” You mutter, your memory finally refreshes as you unconsciously say his name. Your hand movements stop entirely, freezing up on the spot.
Your heart races, you don’t quite know what to do, open the door or stay out for longer? You knew deep down, the argument did not result into hate for Mycroft, you had said some pretty hurtful things too, but you just didn’t know at all what to do to fix the relationship.
You take a deep breath and place the keys into the keyhole, turning them as your ear takes in the sound of a familiar click. With your shaking hands, you turn the door handle and push the door open.
You look around and observe the room, Mycroft was most certainly present in the area, his once shiny shoes sitting near the front door accompanied with the difference in placement of a chair at the dining table proved that. After taking off your shoes and carefully placing them next to the door you walk around.
He was not in any room, not sitting on any furniture, you had searched most rooms. It was until you plopped yourself down on the couch you felt a small breeze graze your skin, it was coming from the sliding glass doors to the balcony along with a faint smell of nicotine.
You approach the balcony doors, brushing the silky curtains to the side, revealing the sight of Mycroft standing on the balcony. His back was turned to you but you could spot the smoke forming from each drag of the cigarette he made. It is without a doubt, you were not happy at all with Mycroft’s actions, he had promised he would avoid smoking a while ago, keeping his promise until now.
You slide open the glass door, Mycroft immediately puts out the cigarette on an ashtray and turns around to face you, as if nothing occurred at all a second ago. As he turns to face you, you can observe and notice that his lips are quite dry, the cigarette he had clearly wasn’t his first in a while. In addition to that there are very visible eye bags, he wasn’t getting enough sleep.
The moment the two of your eyes met, tears spill from Mycroft’s eyes, he had evidently been holding it in for quite a while. He walks towards you and holds you in a tight embrace. “Please, just allow me to do this for a while,” Mycroft whispers. You are caught off guard by this.
After some time you both head inside and make some tea. Eventually, the two of you talk about the matter and came to an agreement. Mycroft had also promised he would try his best to avoid turning to nicotine no matter what happens.
The following night was better than every other one you experienced, the two of you holding each other in an embrace while sleeping peacefully under the familiar warm blanket. The aftertaste of the argument entirely washed away. The both of you finally being able to receive sleep, the rain had begun again, but this time it was in forms of soft and calming taps on the window.

A/N: I'm thinking of making this a series or at least a couple parts but i'm not sure so i figured i'd post this and see what people think. Sorry if theres any mistakes, its literally 6;30am, ive been writing all night. I'm tired.
Warnings; swearing, mentions of a knife??
Word count: 5.4k
Masterlist
****= time skip
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Living in 221b there was never a dull moment. Whether it was sherlock shooting the walls at stupid o clock in the morning because he was, quote-on-quote “BORED”, or john ranting about how sherlock needed to stop using the fridge as a place to store body parts. Every so often you would walk in to find a rather bloody, beaten body on the floor which more often than not was paired with a dishevelled looking Sherlock. You supposed you should be afraid of him, considering the things he was capable of, but you weren’t. In fact you were utterly enamoured by him. Not that you would ever admit that out loud. But it’s true, everything about the raven-haired detective enticed you. His voice, his dry wit, his intelligence – the whole lot. That didn’t stop him getting on every one of your last nerves. Maybe that’s how you ended up in this position.
****
“Sherlock, your phone keeps going off for god’s sake would you answer it?” You groaned, your head falling back against the sofa as the detective’s text notification went off for tenth time that hour.
“I’m busy” He replied plainly, his eyes fixated on the microscope in front of him.
“One of these days I am going to throw that phone down the toilet.” You grumbled standing up to read his messages. “It’s from Greg, says he has a homicide he wants you to check out.”
“Greg?” The detective stopped what he was doing for a moment, his brow furrowed.
“Lestrade you idiot.” You rolled your eyes.
“Oh. Not important then.” Sherlock resumed his work.
“Did you not hear me? He has a homicide he wants you to check out. That’s right up your street.” You said walking over to him.
“Clearly not important enough otherwise he wouldn’t have texted me” Sherlock replied flatly, not looking at you as you rested against the desk next to him.
“Explain.”
“If it was that major, Lestrade would’ve called or barged through the door demanding for my help. You know what he’s like for theatrics. Seeing as he’s done neither of those things, it’s hardly worth my time.” Sherlock ranted with a wave of his hand.
You scoffed. “He’s one for theatrics? Jesus have you looked in the mirror recently.” Your tone caught sherlocks attention.
“What’s wrong with you today?” He asked, looking away from his work.
You shuffled slightly. “Nothing. It’s just- I don’t know.” You sighed looking down at your feet.
You did know. Your feelings for sherlock were causing more issues for you as the days went on. You were beginning to care about him, too much. Everything he did was causing you to fall more in love with him. And it hurt. Not only because you knew he wouldn’t love you back, but because he didn’t care about himself. Every day he would put his life on the line, throwing himself right into the middle of a warzone whether it be with terrorists or serial killers or whatever else, he had no regard for his own life. Whether he lived or died, it didn’t matter to him as long as he was right. But it mattered to you. Loving him resulted in a constant life of worry. The thought of him dying, it hurt your heart more than you cared to admit. As much as the detective meant to you, life before you were in love with him was a lot simpler.
“You’re lying.” Sherlock replied, snapping you from your train of thought.
“Oh well”
“It’s obvious you’re lying. The way you’re standing gives it away almost immediately. By the way you’re fidgeting with your hands I’m guessing it’s to do with someone you care about, someone you love. A friend, family member, a significant other potentially-“
“Sherlock would you just shut up?” You snapped at him.
He looked slightly shocked by your tone. Not at the fact you’d shouted, no he’d heard that plenty of times, but it was never directed at him.
“You know sometimes people like to keep things to themselves. If I wanted you to know I would’ve told you. What the hell gives you the right to deduce me and find something out I never wanted you to know. I thought as my friend you’d have a little bit more respect for my privacy.” You ranted as you grabbed your coat.
“What? y/n where are you going?” Sherlock stood up, confused by your reaction.
“Out. I need some air. Go help Lestrade.” You replied, before slamming the door.
******
You ran your fingers through your hair as you took a seat in the far corner of your favourite coffee shop, thoughts of sherlock whirling round your head. You needed to move past this silly little crush you had. It was already starting to cause tension between the pair of you and you knew if it continued either your friendship would fall apart all together, or sherlock would find out and reject you. Either way ended in you losing him. You needed a distraction, someone to take him off of your mind. But who? John was like your brother so that was off the table, Mycroft rather repulsed you instead of attract you. The thought of asking Greg out had crossed your mind, sure he was attractive enough, but you were too close as friends. Plus you knew your heart wouldn’t be in it. No you needed someone new, someone to sweep you up in a whole new world of emotion. It didn’t necessarily have to be true love, just something to occupy your mind. Slowly you started to realise how hopeless you truly were. You had no time to meet anyone new and all the men in your life weren’t enough. You sighed, looking down at your coffee.
“Excuse me? Is this seat taken?” A smooth Irish voice filled your ears.
You looked up to see a rather attractive man with slicked back black hair and a grey suit jacket on standing in front of you. You felt your stomach flutter as he smiled at you expectantly. His eyes were beautiful. He cleared his throat, still waiting for an answer. You shook your head slightly, chuckling to yourself.
“Um sorry, no its not.” You replied.
“Mind if I sit? It's pretty busy in here and they told me it would be about a half an hour wait.” He said, chuckling.
“By all means” You smiled gesturing to the seat in front of you.
He thanked you and sat down. The two of you sat in silence for a moment. He was looking towards the counter which allowed you to take in his features a little better. His jaw line was magnificently chiselled, line with a short layer of stubble. His arms looked well defined, even under the jacket. He gave off a familiar vibe even though you were certain you had never seen this man before in your life. But something about him felt, comfortable, almost.
“I’ve just realised.” His voice came, breaking you from your thoughts. “Here I am intruding on you and your coffee, and I haven’t even introduced myself. I’m James.” He said holding his hand out to you.
“Hi James, I’m y/n. And you’re not intruding at all, I’ve just been sitting here wallowing in my thoughts.” You joked, internally cringing at yourself.
However, James didn’t seem weirded out by your statement.
“Something bothering you?” He asked, looking genuinely interested.
You questioned whether or not to say anything, you had just met. In the end you figured – what’s the worst that can happen.
“I think I’m in love with my best friend. And it sucks.” You confessed with a weak smile.
James nodded, smiling slightly. “Okay. Do they not feel the same?” He asked.
“Well I haven’t told him, but no. Relationships, feelings that whole lot – not really his thing. But that’s not even the worst part.” You sighed.
James watched you, staying silent allowing you to continue.
“His job, it’s not the safest. But he helps people, which is good, but he has no regard for his life. I guess it’s just an occupational hazard to him, but watching the man I love almost die like every day of my life is fucking draining. And every time I even try to explain it to him he just gets all stroppy about how I shouldn’t care about what happens to him and that it’s his life and I can’t stop him, which I don’t want to do because I know if he stopped working that a lot of people would suffer. That doesn’t stop him infuriating me on a daily basis.” You ranted, running your fingers through your hair.
“That’s why I am here. He was just getting too much for me.” You concluded leaning back in your chair.
“That sounds really intense.” James replied.
“Yeah his job is a bit mental but like I said he helps-“
“-no no I meant you. The fact that you care so deeply about this man is honestly beautiful, but him seemingly not caring about how his actions effect you – that is intense. And in no way fair to you.” He said, looking you in the eyes.
You were slightly shocked; no one you’d talked about this had ever taken the time to see it from your perspective. But here you were sat with some random bloke in a coffee shop, feeling more seen than ever before.
“Oh…yeah I guess.” Was your response.
You mentally face palmed, what sort of response was that?!
“Americano for J M. J M?” Someone shouted over the sea of people.
James’ head whipped round as he stood to grab his drink. Part of you was sad he was leaving so soon, even if you had just met him.
“Well, I best be off. Told my colleague I’d only be gone a few minutes.” He chuckled, a warm smile spreading over him.
“I’m sorry to have kept you. It was nice meeting you James.” You replied, smiling back.
“Don’t be sorry, it was nice to meet you to y/n. See you around.”
And with that he left. A sigh escaped your lips as you rested your chin against the palm of your hand. He could’ve been just the distraction you were hoping for, but you scared him off with an overload of emotions. Whatever, you’d just need to go out to a bar or something. Even something as simple as a one-night stand would be great right about now. Just as you started to pack up your stuff to leave, the same man appeared at the edge of the table once again.
“James? Did you forget something?” You asked looking around the table.
“Um yes. Well no not exactly. I just wanted to- I know you’re into your friend- we just met so- oh god I’m making a right mess out of this.” He chuckled looking down at his hand which was still grasping the cup from earlier.
“Would you like to go to dinner?” He spat out.
You were once again rendered speechless for a moment.
“I know you said you’re in love with your friend so if you don’t want to or think it would be weird because you hardly know me then that’s fine I just think your beautiful and deserve someone who can treat you well. Not that I’m saying that has to be me but-“
“James?” You cut him off from his ramble.
He looked hopefully at you.
“I’d love to go to dinner.” You said smiling at him.
He left out a sigh of relief. “Okay, brilliant. Do you want to take my number and text me? Or I could take yours?”
“Here” You handed him your phone. “You put your number in there and I’ll take this” You said reaching for his phone. “And put mine in. That way we both can contact the other.”
You typed your number in and handed it back. You took your phone from him, laughing at the contact name
“Mr Americano?” You said glancing up at him.
“You can’t tell me it’s not accurate.” He said laughing.
“Well I’ll be looking forward to your text.” You spoke.
“I’ll see you soon y/n.” He said as he waved goodbye walking out the door.
*****
You returned to 221b in a much better mood. James had texted on the walk home and you’d arranged to go for dinner the next day at 7. You told him you’d meet him there although he did try to convince you to let him pick you up, but you didn’t want sherlock to grill him.
“y/n? Is that you?” The detectives voice called out.
You sighed before replying, preparing yourself for the inevitable conversation to come. “Yeah hi sherlock.”
He came round the corner as you slumped onto the sofa.
“Are you okay?” He asked standing in the doorway to the kitchen.
“Yeah I’m fine. I’m sorry about earlier, I was just tired and in a bad mood. I didn’t mean to snap at you.” You apologized.
“Don’t be. It’s me who should be sorry.”
Your head snapped up at his words. It wasn’t like Sherlock to say sorry.
“I shouldn’t have invaded your privacy like that. You’re my friend and I never want to make you uncomfortable. And I did. So you had every right to be angry at me.” He explained, taking a seat in his chair.
You smiled at him softly. “Thank you Sher, that means a lot. But I’m not angry anymore.” You said genuinely.
“You do appear to be in a better mood. Coffee shop must have worked its magic.” He said glancing at the to go cup still in your hand.
“Something like that.” You muttered, feeling your cheeks blush as you looked at the ground.
“You met someone?” Sherlock stated. Well it was more of a question.
You sighed. There was no point denying it, he could clearly read it in you.
“Yeah. I did. We’re going out tomorrow night.” You replied happily.
“Who’s going out tomorrow night?” John asked as he entered, taking a seat in his chair opposite sherlock.
“I am. I met someone at the coffee shop. He sat at my table, and we started talking. He asked me out and I said yes.” You had the biggest grin on your face, but you were excited.
Excited that someone asked you out, and that you actually felt some type of attraction to him. This could be more than just a distraction. You shook your head slightly at the thought. You’d just met him, there was no reason to be dreaming of a future already. Johns’ eyebrows raised at you.
“Wow.” He glanced at sherlock, who hadn’t said anything. “That’s great y/n. Will we meet him?”
You laughed. “No.”
This caught sherlocks attention. “Why not?” The boys said in unison.
You gestured at the two of them. “Have you met the pair of you? I love you both, but I really don’t need you scaring off the one guy who actually wants to take me on a date.” You picked your stuff up and headed to your room. “I’m going to sleep. See you both in the morning.”
“It’s only 8 o clock” John yelled.
“Well I’m exhausted. Goodnight” You called before closing your bedroom door.
*the next evening*
“Why can’t you come over? It would be a lot easier.” You groaned over the video call.
“Because Tom is over, and I don’t want to leave him.” Molly replied smiling.
You smiled for her. Even if her new boyfriend looked almost identical to Sherlock, you were glad she had someone.
“Okay well what do you think?” You tried to show her the whole dress but trying to fit yourself in the frame was rather awkward.
“I don’t know, dresses aren’t normally your thing are they?” She asked.
“Well no, but I haven’t been on a date in a while, so I wanted to make an effort.” You replied, straightening the skirt.
“Where’s he taking you?”
“Just a little Italian place. Never been there before but it’s near the river. I’ve walked past it like a hundred times.”
“I think you should wear the black dress.” Molly suggested. “The one you showed me at Christmas that you never wore?”
You looked at her, unsure. “Really? Do you know think it’s a bit, I don’t know, flashy?”
“Not at all. It’s perfect. Go on, put it on.” Molly beamed at you hopefully.
You thought about it for a second. “Okay fine, give me a second.” You said, earning a little clap from the screen.
You pulled the blue dress off and found the black one. You pulled it out, admiring it for a moment. It truly was a beautiful dress. It was a soft flowy material, the front falling just above the knees while the back trailed a couple inches further down. The top was in a crossed over, v line neck with two flowy straps going round the neck like a halter top. The back was open which just added to the beauty. It was scattered with sparkles that caught in the light in the most elegant way. In all honesty, you’d been looking for an excuse to wear this for a while. You slipped it on, paired with a pair of chunky black heels as well as your black dahlia necklace. You returned to your phone, so molly was able to see my outfit.
“Well?” You asked nervously.
“Oh my god!! You look gorgeous” Molly squealed.
You laughed slightly but had to agree with her. For the first time in a while, you felt truly beautiful.
“I was thinking of bringing my little black clutch and maybe doing my hair in a messy bun?” You suggested, scooping your hair up.
“Do not touch your hair.” Molly practically yelled.
You blinked, eyes wide, as you dropped your hair. “Why not?”
“Y/n your natural hair is perfect. It looks so much nicer if you leave it down.” She explained.
“But will it not look really messy?” You very rarely wore your hair down due to the fact it was naturally very curly. You always thought it looked quite shabby.
“No trust me. It looks amazing.” You sighed. You trusted her opinion, so you left it. Just then a notification popped up on your phone.
“On my way, be there in about 20 minutes. J x”
“Oh shit, I’ve got to go. He’s on his way there. Okay, thank you for everything Molls. I’ll talk to you later.” You grabbed your things before hanging up the phone.
You rushed out of your room, not even noticing the boys in the front room.
“Wow.” John’s voice came from in front of you.
Your head snapped up, finally clocking they were there. John was sat at the desk with his laptop as stood staring the wall with a bunch of newspaper clippings all over it.
“Y/n you look…wow.” John repeated, looking you up and down.
“uh thank you?” You chuckled nervously as you double checked the contents of my bag.
“I mean that in a good way of course.” He reassured.
You nodded. “Good to know.”
You pulled your jacket on and double checked your makeup in the mirror.
“Right boys, I’m off. No idea what time I’ll be home so don’t wait up.” You turned to walk out the door but walked straight into a certain detective’s chest.
“Jesus sherlock.” He stared down at you, his eyes raking over your body.
“I have to go Sher I’ll be late.” You said, hoping he’d move.
“You are utterly divine.” He muttered. Your heart jumped for a moment.
“What?” You whispered.
He cleared his throat, shaking his head slightly as if he hadn’t meant to say that out loud. He moved to the side, letting you move past.
“Have a nice time. Call if you need anything.” He said, turning his back to you.
You stood there, momentarily stunned before you snapped back into reality. You walked towards the door.
“Right. Um yeah, I’ll see you later.” And with that you left the flat, still processing what Sherlock had said.
****
The date was wonderful. James was an absolute gentleman, and if you were being totally honest with yourself – you were falling for him. Since the restaurant the two of you had been out on a good few dates, each one of them making you fall further and further for him. Sherlock wasn’t pleased. You were never around anymore. Well that isn’t strictly true, considering he lives with you, and you help him on cases but in his mind you weren’t there. He felt like he never got a moment to just be with you, without the stress of a mass murderer or a kidnapping on his mind. John had noticed the change in the detective’s behaviour, which just amused him.
“Y/n, we need to go to Cornwall this weekend for a case. It’s a big one, we think Moriarty is behind it.” Sherlock said, striding into the room with john following shortly behind you.
“Hello to you too” You mumbled, adjusting your position on the sofa.
“We are leaving early tomorrow so be ready.” Sherlock continued, ignoring your comment.
“I can’t come, I have plans.” You replied casually.
“Going out with your coffee man again? That’s what like 3 times this week?” John asked, sitting down next to you.
“Yep, he’s got a whole weekend planned for us.” You smiled.
The detective froze, his back to you. The excitement in your voice was evident and Sherlock felt an intense wave of anger wash over him. He didn’t like this side of himself, and he had no idea why you being happy was provoking this reaction from him. He usually loved nothing more then when you were smiling or laughing. But he wanted to be the one making you feel that way.
“Did you not hear what I said? This case has got Moriarty written all over it. You can’t just decide not to come because of some random idiot you met at a coffee shop.” Sherlock seethed.
You frowned at him, standing to face him. “He’s not some random idiot Sherlock. He means a lot to me.” You argued.
“Well then maybe you’re an idiot too. Look cancel your plans; we need you with us.”
You laughed in his face. “I am not an idiot for falling for someone who actually gives two shits about me and treats me well. I’m sorry you don’t know what it feels like to have someone want to be around you but I’m not cancelling my plans to help you with some bullshit case so you can insult me more.” You raged.
You hadn’t meant to sound quite so harsh, but he was really winding you up. Ever since you’d started dating James he took any opportunity he could to make you feel bad about being happy and you were sick of it. You were finally getting over him and he chooses to be an arse about it. Sherlock blinked back at you, momentarily shocked by your words. The tension in the air was thick before he decided to speak again.
“Y/n, we need you. I need you there. Please” He asked, his tone a lot softer.
You sighed, looking at the floor. “I’m sorry Sherlock. I hope it goes well.” You replied before leaving the flat.
Sherlock watched as you left, unable to fully comprehend what had just happened.
“Well…that was…something.” John commented.
*****
The next day when you woke up, the boys had already left. You felt bad because you hadn’t spoken to Sherlock since the argument and now you weren’t going to see him for two days. Thoughts of him getting hurt, or something worse began to flash through your mind. You couldn’t let yesterday be the last thing you said to him. You scrambled to get your phone, finding his contact before shooting him a message. Down in Cornwall, Sherlocks phone buzzed as he was examining a body.
“John.” He instructed.
John sighed “yeah I know, give me a second”
John grabbed the phone from the detective’s coat before pulling up the message. “
Its from y/n” John said.
Sherlocks head snapped up, grabbing the phone from john.
“I didn’t mean what I said. You just know how to push every single one of my buttons Mr Holmes. Stay safe and catch me a killer. y/n xx” Sherlock grinned at the message before promptly putting the phone back in his pocket.
After a while you decided you should probably et up and start getting ready for you’re weekend away. James had told you he’d be round to collect you and 2pm and you still hadn’t packed. It was exciting that he wanted to surprise you, but without knowing where you were going – you didn’t have a clue what to pack. You stared at the wardrobe in front of you, hands on your hips as you wracked your brain on what the best choice was here. However, before you could continue our mental debate much longer your phone started ringing. Deciding to come back to your clothes later, you grabbed your phone and headed to the kitchen.
“Hey, you” You answered happily.
“Hey y/n, how are you?” James asked over the phone.
“I’m good, definitely not packing last minute I don’t know why you would even suggest that” You reply with a light chuckle.
James laughed nervously, making your brow furrow in confusion.
“Everything okay?”
“Yeah, yeah…well actually no. Look I’m really sorry, but I can’t actually take you where I’d planned this weekend” He replied.
Your heart sunk a little as you placed the cup of tea you’d been making on the counter in front of you.
“Oh.” Was all you could think to say.
You had been really excited to get away with him.
“I am so sorry. But something came up at work which means I actually have to stay in London.”
You felt a twinge of annoyance at that. You’d turned down a work opportunity for him, but he couldn’t do the same for you? Not that he knew you done that but that wasn’t the point.
“But I still want to see you. I was just thinking we could do something else instead. I’d offer to let you stay over at mine, but my roommates are pretty annoying and-“
“Stay at mine” You blurted out, not really thinking.
James still was yet to meet John and Sherlock, let alone visit your shared flat. But them being in a way for the weekend presented you with a window of opportunity.
“Really?” He sounded surprised at your suggestion.
“Yeah, I mean that way you don’t have to leave London and we still get to spend the weekend together.”
“But your roommates-“
“Are away for work. They won’t be back till Monday evening at the earliest. We can have the whole place to ourselves” You said, smiling.
“Well that could not be more perfect.” He replied.
“Brilliant, ill text you the address and you can head over for 12ish if that still works?” You suggested as you headed back to your room.
“Sounds good, I have a few work calls to make but I should be done with those in time and then I’ll head straight over.”
“Okay, ill see you soon James” You said goodbye, a grin on your face.
It hadn’t been the weekend you were expecting, but it was good enough for you. It also solved your packing issue. You shoved your suitcase back in your cupboard as you began to tidy the flat, the nerves of him seeing your place for the first time finally setting in. It’ll be fine You thought. A weekend in with eh guy you were falling for, what more could you ask for?
****
It was midday Sunday when the boys were finally back in London, making their way back to their flat. Neither one had bothered to tell you they were on their way home, assuming you were out with your mystery guy.
"john I’m telling you, there was no way Moriarty wasn’t leading us astray. That whole case was way too simple. He’s misdirecting us and we were stupid enough to fall for it.” Sherlock ranted as he unlocked the door.
“That may be true Sherlock but that doesn’t get us any closer to finding out what he’s got planned. You heard what Mycroft said, nothing else has happened while we’ve been away. He may have sent us on what was essentially a wild goose chase, but he hasn’t done anything else so what now?” John replied as they made there way up the stairs.
Sherlock was about to reply as he pushed the door to his flat open, but the sight before him made the words die in his throat.
“Sherlock?” John noticed how tense his friend had become. “What’s wrong-“ He stepped around the detective to look into the apartment, his face dropping in shock.
You heard the door swing open, your head snapping round to see Sherlock staring intently at you.
“What the fuck” You muttered scrambling to get off of James’s lap. You’d been enjoying a rather heavy make out session moments before. Your face flushed red as john also caught sight of you in the compromising position.
“Why are you guys’ home already?” You asked rather frustratedly.
James didn’t say anything, but you noticed his grip on you hadn’t loosened.
“Y/n, come here.” Sherlocks voice was low, almost scarily so.
His eyes burned into you as he glared at you. You noticed the lack of colour in John’s face. Why were they being so weird?
“What? No! What the hell is wrong with the pair of you? You’re acting like you’ve never seen someone kiss before” You scoffed.
“Y/n seriously, listen to him.” John said, a hint of nerves laced in his tone.
You stared at the two of them, feeling increasingly more annoyed. Why were they being so ridiculous?
“No!! John what the hell-“
“Get over here. Now” Sherlock demanded once more.
You were about to reply when you heard a small chuckle from behind you.
“I’m not going to hurt her if that’s what you think” James said from behind you.
You noticed now the boys weren’t glaring at you, but rather him. You turned to face him, utterly lost. His face had changed, he didn’t look as kind as he had moments before. He wore a sinister smirk on his lips, his eyes gleaming with an emotion you couldn’t quite place but it unsettled you to no end.
“James? What are you talking about?”
“Let go of her wrist then” Sherlock replied, talking to him as if you weren’t even in the room.
His words made you realise just how tight James was holding onto you. You tried to pull away, but he wouldn’t let you. Your heart was racing, a bad feeling sinking into your bones.
“James, let go” You tried to keep your voice steady, but he noticed the way it wavered.
He chuckled ominously, meeting your slightly panicked gaze. “Would you look at that” He leant forward, so close you could feel his breath on your face.
He reached up a hand to brush some hair from your face, causing you to flinch. “She’s scared. Poor thing. Rather pathetic actually, considering how you had your tongue down my throat not too long ago” He said, his words laced with venom.
Your face flushed red in embarrassment.
“Why are you being like this James?” You asked, your voice just higher than a whisper.
“You know that’s such a boring name. James” He grimaced as he said it. “No I much prefer Jim. Or the name your little friends over there know me by. Any guesses as to what it might be pet?” He asked you with a smirk.
You sat staring at him in silence. Nothing about this situation made sense.
“Moriarty” Sherlock’s voice answered for you.
Your blood ran cold. It felt like your heart had stopped beating as you stared at the man in front of you. The man you had developed feelings for. Your reality came crashing down around you. Fear swept through you as you sat there, frozen.
He grinned wickedly at you. “Hiya love.”
Suddenly you felt the cool metal of a blade against your stomach. You heard the boys tense from behind you. Your breath caught in your throat as Moriarty just laughed.
“Now what are we going to do with you?”
