Advent Calender 2012 - December 10
This is day 10 of the Advent calendar filled with little ficlets, brought to you by days_of_storm and me. We will post in rotation, so you get a story by me one day and one from her the next day, right up until Christmas.
Apart from the overall Christmasy theme we decided to take over from where the other left off in her chapter so that there will be one story in the end. Let's see how that works out.
A happy pre-Christmas season to all of you! :)

As they were walking back towards the exit of the gallery, John put his hand on Sherlock’s arm. It was a gentle gesture and at the same time perfectly innocent. The man was in enough trouble without John touching him inappropriately.
“Let’s walk the rest of the way. The cool air will help hide our... um, slightly dishevelled appearance and it might help you to calm down.”
Sherlock snorted.
They entered the cafeteria and John looked at the cakes. Was it worth buying some for Mycroft, hoping to annoy him enough to maybe overlook the tiny tales that would give away their last minutes’ activity? He glanced at Sherlock, who smiled but shook his head.
“He would know exactly where we bought it and therefore why we stopped here.”
“You know, sometimes I wish Lestrade was your brother. Everything would be so much more simple. Even the Christmas dinners.”
They both chuckled as they stepped outside into the cold air.

AN: Sorry, this is rather short. But I have so much work to do right now, I don't even know where to start.
Also I thought this is a good point to stop, so days_of_storm can either go visit Mycroft or jump home and get back to the porn. :D
