John stood there for a minute confused.
“Aren’t you going?” Lestrade asked.
“She just said-”
“Yeah, well, there’s three of us, aren’t there?”
“Oh.” John paused. “Right. Okay then. Um, Sherlock, I guess I’ll be back later then.” Then John hurriedly followed Avery out of the room.
“Uh, what was that?” John asked as he caught up.
“Lunch,” Avery replied. “Didn’t I say? I always have a meal after a case. I used to have a friend to go out to lunch with me, but she’s in Australia. Or France. Maybe America.” She shrugged. “It all gets a bit cloudy after the plane fight.”
“The plane fight?”
“Oh, don’t worry about it. It all turned out okay. I think.” She shrugged again. “Lunch. Where do you want to go?”
“Uh. Wherever.”
“Okay. Hmm, there’s a nice place on Northumberland Street. Have you been?”
John remembered his time on Northumberland Street very well. “Once or twice.”
She smiled. “Great. Let’s go.”
