36th Failure… And More
Chapter 1. Working
Watson was sitting at his work desk in his and Sherlock’s huge research room. He was nose-deep in the opened book in front of him, writing down some information about a recently deceased patient. As he was writing in some medical truths, a head popped in the doorframe and a soft but audible knock was heard.
‘’Watson? May I disturb you for--- Oh, of course I can!’’ Sherlock exclaimed, jumping all merrily into the big room.
‘’I wanted to ---- What are you doing, Watson?’’ he suddenly asked, peeking at the books spread out in front of his long-life companion.
Watson sighed.
‘’I’m writing down crucial information about my newest deceased patient.’’ He answered.’’ What do you want, Sherlock?’’
He threw his pen onto his desk, then stretched and took a hold of his chair’s back.
‘’Well… I want to show you something!’’ excitedly said Holmes, smile on his face, waving him to come and join him. ‘’Come on!’’
Watson sighed again then got out of his comfy chair and walked up to Sherlock. He nicely opened the door and let him pass.
‘’Thank you…’’ whispered the renown detective as he passed by his friend.
Watson chuckled as he let go of the door. ‘’Oh, you said it on the moment this time! Wonderful!’’
‘’Myeah…’’
Sherlock rushed down the stairs and flung the door open for them both to pass. He was excited to show Watson’s the purpose of their stroll; He just couldn’t contain his excitation.
‘’So, what are you going to show me?’’
‘’Oh, just you wait. You’ll see! It’s a surprise!’’ said Sherlock, all smiley.
Watson rolled his eyes and sighed a bit. He knew it would not give anything to keep on trying to get a hint from Sherlock Holmes right now.
So, instead of resisting, he just followed nonchalantly and closely. They walked for a good couple of minutes, passed by many stores and restaurants, before arriving at the entrance of a narrow alley.
Watson frowned and turned to Sherlock who was gleaming with utter joy and excitement.
‘’See? See?!’’ asked Sherlock.
‘’Wha---‘’
But Watson didn’t even get to finish his sentence that Holmes pulled him by the hand and brought him near a little silver memorial plaque. There was written on its surface the name Sherlock Holmes in bronze.
‘’No way!!...’’ Watson leaned to get a better view of it. Surprised and amused by this, a smile formed istelf on his face.
‘’But I thought you didn’t want to be..exposed. So, why are you this gleeful?’’
‘’Well.’’ Replied Holmes, faking a deep concentration. ‘’At a time in a man’s life, he wants to be remembered any way he can so… Why not?! I accepted. Plus, that’s only the second reason I have brought you here…’’
‘’The second? Then, what is the first, Holmes?’’ asked Watson on the defensive.
‘’So you would be more surprised…’’
And Holmes rushed to his companion, put his hands on either side of his face and kissed him passionately. The shock of the impact made Watson stumble a bit until he hit the nearest brick wall with his back.
Though this was unpredictable and risky for everyone passing bu could see them and denounce them with no shame at all, they stood there, kissing deeply as if nothing else existed.
‘’Sherlock?’’ thought Watson in confusion.
