Sherlock's soft spot

Aug 10, 2010 22:26

 This is all a bit random but I thought it would be cute. It fits in between episodes 2 and 3. My plan is if I do more, it will be in an alternate universe through episode 3 and after that. Also I'm writing it as a script because I suck writing it as anything else. Oh and FYI, I used my name for the girl but she isn't necessarily based on me.

Title: Sherlock's soft spot

Rating: g
Summary: Being as ridiculously brilliant as Sherlock has it's consequence, but some may not be as bad as others

(Watson is in the kitchen)
Watson:Tea Sherlock?
Sherlock: Always
(Watson starts making tea)
Sherlock: I am so bored
Watson:Why don't you watch TV, or you could tidy the flat, or surf the internet, or...
Sherlock: Boooooring. I really have no idea how you do not kill yourself.
Watson: I'm normal, not some moody psychopath, and normal people find those sorts of things interesting.
(Sherlock sits bolt upright)
Sherlock: Hey, for the last time I'm a sociopath. What does it matter anyway, I'm still bored.
(whimpering noises)
Sherlock: I know it's hard being wrong, but crying's a bit dramatic
Watson: That wasn't me
(more whimpering noises)
Watson: What is that noise?
Sherlock: If you've let a puppy in my flat..
Watson:Your flat? It's as much my flat as it is yours. And no, I haven't let a puppy in.
Sherlock: Then what is that noise?
(Felicity runs across the room wearing a maid outfit)
Felicity: SPIDERRRRRRR
(Sherlock leaps on Felicity)
Sherlock: How did you get in to my flat?
Watson: Sherlock, she's only a child, go easy on her
Felicity: Hey, I'm not a child, I'm 17.
Sherlock: Why are you here anyway?
Felicity: I'm a big fan. I've always wanted to work along side you and be your side kick. When I saw how quickly you started working with John, I thought maybe I could join you as well. 
Sherlock: No
(Sherlock gets up)
Felicity: Please, I've got nowhere else to go, I spent most of my money on getting here. Look, I don't mind running errands for you. I can cook, I can clean,
Sherlock: John does that. He enjoys it.
Watson: No I don't. Come on Sherlock, this place is a mess.
Sherlock: Yes but it's my mess.
Watson: Come on, she's only young, it's dangerous in London at night. And it's your fault she's here.
Sherlock: How is it my fault. I didn't choose to be this brilliant.
Felicity: I won't take up much room, and I don't eat much. I promise I won't cost you a thing.
Sherlock: Oh whatever, I give up.I've had enough of arguing with you two. John, she's your responsibility.
Watson: Why?
Sherlock: You wanted her to stay.
Watson: Whatever.

Later

(Sherlock is sat at his desk. Felicity is sat by his side on the floor.)
Sherlock: Must you sit there
Felicity: I want to be ready to help you if you want me to at any moment.
Sherlock: Well it's annoying.
Felicity: Sorry
(Felicity gets up and goes to walk away)
Sherlock: Pen
Felicity: What?
Sherlock: I said pen.
(Felicity passes Sherlock a pen)
Sherlock: Paper
(Felicity passes him a piece of paper)
Sherlock: Your learning quickly.
(there is silence for a while)
(Felicity goes to leave again)
Sherlock: Have a look at this. It's an email I got
(Sherlock hands her the pen and paper)
Felicity: It's just a random load of letters.
Sherlock: Are you sure?
Felicity: Yes
Sherlock: Look again
Felicity: Ahh, it's a grid cypher. 
Sherlock: Now how did you work that out?
Felicity: Well it says I live off the grid at the end. I guessed it was a clue because it sounded out of place.
Sherlock: I suppose you're not a complete idiot then.
Felicity: Well I've been researching things like that. 
Sherlock: Pointless. If someone want's to leave a well encrypted message they aren't going to use basic codes like that. The last code I encountered used an ancient Chinese number system and the London A to Z. Now somehow I don't think you could memorize the whole London A to Z and the page and entry number for each word.
Felicity: I read about that. It was really interesting.
Sherlock: What skills have you got anyway. What makes you think you will be any use to me. Watson's a doctor,I'm just brilliant, so what can you contribute?
Felicity: Um
Sherlock: I give up. Sleep on the sofa tonight, but tomorrow you need to go somewhere else. 
Felicity: Why did you jump at the chance to share with Watson? He moved in in a day, you knew nothing about him and he's boring.
Sherlock: I needed a flat mate to afford this place.
Felicity: Whatever.
(Felicity storms out)

Later

(Sherlock and Watson are getting ready for bed)
Watson: See you tomorrow Felicity.
Felicity: Goodnight 
(Sherlock and Watson go off to bed)
(Felicity looks around making sure the others have gone then takes her dress revealing a tail and cat ears pop up from under her hair)
Sherlock: Sorry I forgot to give you a blanket and a pil...
(Sherlock sees the tail and cat ears)
Sherlock: OH MY GOD SO CUTE 
(Sherlock runs and glomps Felicity)
Felicity: Nya?
(Sherlock let's go and straitens his shirt and tie)
Sherlock: Ok, I think I've found how you can contribute., but we must never tell Watson of this.
Felicity: Ok
(Sherlock hands Felicity a blanket and a pillow, then gives her another hug)
(Felicity giggles and settles down on the sofa)
