The Detective (A Sherlock Fan-Fic) (Under Editing)

Chapter Forty-Six

MOLLY'S P.O.V

Her Flat.

I smiled as Vidar entered, Signe following him.

"Vidar!"  I hugged him my heart racing as he wrapped his arms around me and kissed me quickly on the top of my head.

"Molly!"  I felt Signe wrap her arms around my side and I ruffled her hair before motioning for them to sit down,

"How's life Vidar?" He shrugged,

"Stressful, my jobs becoming quite intense and Signe has just started Primary School," I nodded and smiled down at Signe,

"Ummm, Vidar how do I say well done in Norwegian?"

"Godt gjort," 

"Godt gjort Signe!"  She smiled,

"Jeg lærer å telle til ti!" I frowned and looked to Vidar for a translation,

"She's saying that she's learning how to count to ten," I smiled at her again, she turned to Vidar an excited look on her face,

"Pappa kan jeg vise Molly min nye dukken?" He nodded and she hurried off to her bagpack,

"It's really nice to see you again Molly,"

"You too Vidar.  It's been a while since I've seen you..." He nodded and the silence was broken  by the Signe squeling in delight as Toby sat down next to her,

"You got a cat?"

"Yep, I was lonely so I got a cat and named him Toby."

"I heard you were engaged,"

"I broke it off, he cheated on me,"

"What a dickhead,"

"Yep,"

"So... It seems Sherlock's settled down..." I shrugged,

"I don't think so, there's always been something off about those two, I mean for over a year they didn't speak to each other and then suddenly after only being acquaintances for about eight months they start going back to this relationship, It's more of a 'friends with benefits' sort of thing, I just don't think they're ever going to marry each other, do you know what I mean?" He nodded,

"It's sort of like what we were before I moved back to Norway," I nodded, I wish he hadn't...

"Yes, I guess it is," there was the sound of the guest room door closing,

"Signe likes to play with her dolls by herself.  Look Molly I wish I'd never-"

"Don't Vidar, I don't want to bring it up,"

"Well I do; Molly I lov-" I just shook my head,

"No Vidar; you loved Hannah, it was always Hannah,"

"No you're wrong, it was always you, I was a stupid boy, I'm a man now Molly and it's time you knew that I've always loved you!" He leaned forwards and before I could react he pressed his lips to mine, I kissed back and he pulled me onto his knee before breaking off,

"Come back to Norway with me,"

"No, I can't, I have a job, I have a house-"

"Molly, please!?"  I closed my eyes, rubbing my temples,

"I'll think about it."

SHERLOCK'S P.O.V

Lucy's flat.

"So this Vidar person is working for Moriarty and is saying that if I don't drop the case he'll kill Vidar, Vidars' daughter, you and me."  She nodded,

"I forwarded you the email he sent me his contact details,"  I checked the email on my phone before saving his details to my contacts,

"Sherlock?"

"Yes?"

"What exactly is this case?" 

"I can't tell you,"

"Yes you can if it involves us dying,"

"Mycroft has cameras everywhere watching me, if I tell you he'll know,"

"Can you at least give me a word, a name, something?" A word, one word.

"Green." She frowned,

"Green?  What is that supposed to mean?"

"Exactly, you asked for one word, I gave you a word related to the case," she just rolled her eyes before lighting a cigarette and popping the filter end in her mouth before taking it out and breathing smoke in my face,

"Want one?"

"Yes, but that's the last one of the packet,"

"You ruin the fun, here," she handed me the cigarette,

"You've put me off it,"

"Nope,"

"I'm going for a shower, don't follow me in there."  She got up and disappeared into the bathroom leaving me alone with a now dead cigarette, my phone vibrated and I checked the message,

I'm bored; let's have dinner.

- I A.

And a second one;

Oh deary me Sherlock; there's a deduction you've missed, and believe me you won't like what you find.

-JM

I turned my phone off, what have I missed, have I actually missed something or is he just trying to annoy me?  She's going to be in there for a while, I might as well go.  I got up, placing the cigarette in the ashtray before glancing once more at the bathroom door, have I missed something about you I wonder?  I shrugged then left.

A/N

So yeahhh, sorry for the long wait and the incredibly short chapter, I've got writers block.  So... Vidar and Molly; what do you think she'll say, and what has Sherlock missed?  Sadly this book is nearing an end and yes there will hopefully be a sequel.  To save confusion, the case that could end up killing them will start to take more of a light soon enough (most likely in the second book) and to be warned there will be a lovely little cliffhanger for you to enjoy :) As always please feel free to vote, comment and tell your friends! :)
