Sherlock woke early and went into Joseph's room. He stood over his cot and watched him sleep. He took one of his hands in his, he was so small. He looked out the window at New York, thinking about the trail ahead of him. He thought he'd be around to see him grow up, it looks far less likely now. He didn't hear Joan come in.
'Hey, it's early.'
'I couldn't sleep.' Joan looked down at Joseph. 'Been thinking about things.'
'Sherlock, あなた have nothing to worry about. They jury will see though her lies.'
'We hope.' Sherlock picked him up. 'I'd hate to leave あなた two.'
'You won't.' Sherlock smiled at her...

It's been a few months since Sherlock was in hospital and Joan is now six months pregnant with their baby.Sherlock has been sleeping in Irene's old room as he and Joan aren't together.

He woke up, still missing the warmth Joan's body lying 次 to his own. He got up from his ベッド and sat for a moment, only three もっと見る months till their son would arrive. He couldn't wait to meet him. He went upstairs and found Joan in the kitchen. She looked so beautiful to him, always did.
'Morning.'
'Morning, There お茶, 紅茶 in the pot if あなた want some.'
'Thanks.' He got a cup from the cupboard and sat down 次 to her....

After dinner, Sherlock disappeared upstairs. Joan was helping Irene with the dishes.
'That's was beautiful.'
'Thank you, i learnt it back in London.'
'What's it like? London?,'
'Like here but...British.' Joan giggled.
'So not much difference?.'
'Except the views, I 愛 the scenery here.'
'It's gorgeous, isn't it?.'
'So..When's the big day?.'
'We haven't decide yet.'
'You nervous?.'
'A little but that's to be expected. I'm just hoping the baby doesn't come on the day.'
'That would be interesting.' They both started to laugh when Sherlock came back downstairs.
'Hey, where'd あなた get to?'
'I went up and ran...

Sherlock went upstairs to get changed. He had to do something about Irene. Joan came out of the bathroom when he had just finished dressing.
'Where あなた off too?.'
'Gregson phoned. He needs me at the station.' He kissed her forehead. 'I won't be long.'
'Take a key with you, i'm booking the scan so i don't know how long i'll be.'
'Alright, i'll see あなた later. 愛 you.'
'Love あなた too.'
He decided to walk to the station, he needed to clear is mind. He had to decide if he was going to tell Joan what happened または not, he didn't want to hurt her again. He promised her father that he wouldn't. As he walked...

'Sherlock...' The man grabbed her によって her hair to shut her up.
'Don't あなた touch her.' The man turned to face him.
'Or what?. How are あなた gonna stop me? I'm the one with the gun.' He pointed it at Joan's head. 'One wrong move.'
'You won't use it, on her anyway.'
'How do あなた know?.'
'The way your holding it. I noticed over the years that when criminals hold guns, they hold it a certain way when they really mean their going to 火災, 火 it. The way your holding says あなた have no intention of killing her.' The man looked at Joan then threw her to the floor. 'Now, why did あなた take her?.'
'It was the only way...

When they arrived at the police station Detective ベル was waiting for them
'Captain, we have her in interview room 2 but she's refusing to speak to anyone.'
'That's why i brought him.' Sherlock made his way to the room. He went in and sat down in the chair opposite her.
'I never thought i'd see あなた in here Irene, あなた hardly ever get caught.' She quickly glanced at him then looked back down at the table. 'And your not one for kidnapping either. Where is she?.' She 発言しました nothing. 'Irene i know あなた were there, i could smell your perfume on Joan's pillows. The 質問 is why were あなた there?.' She...

Sherlock got woke in the middle of the night によって the guards switching on the lights, He had just nodded off.
'Holmes.' He looked round and saw Gregson standing at the bars.
'Captain, what...'
'No time, あなた need to come with us.' He opened the cell. Sherlock could tell he was panicking.
'What's wrong?.'
'Somethings happened, we need you.'
Sherlock knew when he withheld information it was personal to someone.
'Captain, just tell me.'
'Joan's gone.'

Sherlock sat in the back of the car and looked down at his ring, Gregson manage to pursued the guard to let him have it back. He kept twirling it round his...

Sherlock sat waiting in the interview room, he always knew he would be behind the 机, デスク as a criminal at some point. After a minuet, ベル came in.
'Detective.'
'Mr Holmes.' He sat down. 'It's been awhile.'
'Almost a month, i believe.' ベル put the case file on the desk.
'Shall we?.' He opened it and spread the contense across the desk. 'Feel free to look.' Holmes lent フォワード, 前進, 楽しみにして in his seat. 'Now care to explain your relationship with Miss Adler?.'
'There is no relationship.'
'Really? then how come we found this picture of you?.' He pushed it towards Sherlock.
'That was from a few years ago.'
'But you...

Joan woke early. She rolled over and looked at Sherlock. He was still asleep. She placed a gentle キッス on his cheek. so she wouldn't wake him, and went downstairs. She found her bag and pulled out the envelopes. She didn't know what to do about them. They were addressed to Sherlock so what would Gregson being doing with them? She was torn. She wanted to know what was in them but then that would be betraying Sherlock's trust.
'Joan!?
She heard him.
'I'm down here!.' She shoved the envelopes back in her bag. After a moment, Sherlock came downstairs
'Your up early.'
'I couldn't sleep.' She went into...

'What are あなた doing here?'
'Can't a guy drop によって and say hello?'
Sherlock stepped outside, shutting the door behind him.
'When the guy happens to be a current drug addict, no he can't.'
'You're one to talk.'
'I've been clean for almost 3 years.'
'Well congrats to you(!)' Oscar looked up at the brownstone. 'Nice place, daddy buy it for you?'
'He did.'
'You on your own?' Sherlock held up his left hand. 'Your married?'
'Almost two years.'
'Does she know about your past? Irene? The drugs?'
'She knows it all. Now, what do あなた want?'
'I was hoping for a fix.'
'Not likely, now if あなた excuse me.' Sherlock went...

Sherlock and Joan have been in a relationship for about a 月 and things seem to be going great so far...

Joan woke up and went downstairs, still in her nightwear, to find the キッチン was still a mess from last night.

'Sherlock!.'
She heard him tumble out of bed. He came downstairs to the kitchen.
'Didn't i ask あなた to clean this up last night?.'
'I was going to clean it up this morning when あなた were still in ベッド so it would be a nice surprise. I didn't anticipate あなた being up this early.' He gave her his 子犬 dog eyes.
'No, don't do that.'
'Do what?.' He moved closer and wrapped his arms around...

Set a couple of years after Mycroft's funeral.
Sherlock and Joan have been married for almost two years and Joesph has just turned two.

Joan woke from her sleep upon hearing the noise downstairs, she got out of the ベッド and went down the stairs to living room only to see that Sherlock and Joesph had been playing one of their many games and have knocked over almost everything in the living room.

'Sherlock!'
He looked at Joan and grabbed Joesph to stop him running around,
'What is going on? I thought あなた 発言しました you'd be at the station this morning?'
'I was, I managed to solve the case in under half an...

Sherlock woke early and just stared at his brother. They were going ホーム today and he couldn't be happier. He would see his son soon but most importantly he would see Joan. He missed her so much. Mycroft rolled over and opened his eyes.
'Morning.'
'Morning.' Mycroft sat up. 'What time is it?'
'Eight o'clock. あなた can go back...'
'No i'm fine. What time's our flight?'
'About two o'clock. We have a few hours left.'
'Well..Better start packing.' Mycroft got out the ベッド and picked up his bag. 'Are あなた sure あなた want me to stay with you?'
'I'm sure.' They smiled at each other. Sherlock followed his brother...

Sherlock took James back to Mycroft's flat to シャワー and change. Once he was in the kitchen, Sherlock pulled Mycroft aside.
'Moriarty is in London.'
'How do あなた know?'
'James ストール, 盗んだ two grand from him. That's why あなた haven't heard from him, he's been in hiding.'
'Have あなた called Scotland yard?'
'Not yet, If Moriarty knows we're on to him..He'll vanish. We'll have to bide our time with this one.'
'Alright, James can stay in the other guest room for now. あなた should probably call Joan.'
'No.'
'No? She has a right to know brother.'
'She doesn't need any もっと見る stress, it's not good for her または the baby.'
'But...

'What?'
'The only way あなた can save Sherlock is to give up your baby.'
'That's..That's sick.'
'You 発言しました あなた would do anything to save him. His life is in your hands.' She hanged up the phone. Joan couldn't believe what she heard, Give up her baby? Irene knew that was the one thing she could never do. She thought about Sherlock lying there, waiting for her to save him. She dialed Gregson's number.
'Miss Watson. How's Sherlock doing?'
'I don't know, Irene's with him.'
'What's she doing there? Where are you?'
'I'm at home, Sherlock wanted me to check out a theory. He thought Irene tried to kill him. He...

Joan sat in the interview waiting for Gregson and ベル to 表示する up. She couldn't help but wonder where Sherlock could have gone. He didn't have anyone left to help him. He was alone. The door opened and Gregson came in.
'How could あなた let this happen? I thought Sherlock was your... i don't know friend?.'
'It wasn't my decision.'
'Your the captain. Everything that happens gets run によって あなた first.'
'And is then reported to the chief of police, who makes the final call.'
'Why didn't あなた tell him that Sherlock wouldn't do such a thing?.' Gregson 発言しました nothing. 'He doesn't know about Sherlock does he?.'
'No...

When he got home, Joan was just out of the shower.
'Hey, where did あなた get off too?.'
'The police station. we've been broken into.'
'Did they take anything?.' Sherlock shook his head. 'Then why would they bother?.'
'Probably some kid, who was dared but wimped out at the last second. Anyway あなた need to get dressed, they'll be here in five minutes.'
'OK.' She went into her room. The doorbell rang.
'That'll be them.' Sherlock went downstairs and opened the door. 'Captain Gregson. Detective Bell.' He motioned for them to come in.
'Where do あなた want us to search?.'
'Just the kitchen.'
'But how do あなた know...'...

The 次 morning, Joan woke up and turned to look at Sherlock. He was so cute when he was asleep. He seem もっと見る at peace with himself.
'Watson, あなた know it's rude to stare.' She giggled as he turned over so he was on 上, ページのトップへ of her.
'So it's OK when あなた do it?.'
'When have i?.'
'Yesterday.' They both laughed. 'I need a shower.' Sherlock pinned her down. 'Sherlock.' He gave her a quick キッス then roll off to let her up. He watched her walk into the bathroom then went downstairs. He went into the キッチン and found an envelope with his name on it. He checked the back door and found it was open. It wasn't...
