Light Hits the Gloom
“A rose?”
I wasn’t sure I had heard Holmes correctly, but he grinned.
“Indeed, Watson.”
“I fail to see how such a flower reminds you of me.”
His expression softened. “The rose can never see its own beauty. Cannot know what it is like to live only in a fog, until suddenly there blooms warmth and color.”
“Holmes,” I said, feigning shock. “That is positively sentimental.”
“Merely an analogy,” he replied, though with a smile in his eyes. “Surely as a man of letters, you recognize the literary device.”
“Yes, of course,” I said, and pulled him into a kiss.
