Title: His Brother's Keeper
Fandom: Sherlock
Pairing: Sherlock/Lestrade
Characters: Sherlock, Lestrade, Mycroft
Rating:G
Summary: Mycroft always looks out for his little brother, usually to said brothers objection. And those around the younger Holmes always seem to get caught up in the sibling quarrels.
AN: this was written along the format of the 221B challenge, (a fiction exactly 221 words long with the last word beginning with the letter B) the idea was given to me by kaitou1412 and her cake fic, apparently the challenge was created by KCS

Lestrade bounded upstairs to Sherlock's apartment. The door was open and so the Inspector stepped across the threshold uninvited, taking the open door as a standing invitation to visitors (not that Sherlock had many visitors apart from himself)

Expecting to find his young lover draped over one of the pieces of furniture in his usual haphazard way, Lestrade found himself shocked to find him in what seemed to be a staring contest across the room with an older man.

"Ah, Lestrade, glad you could join us," said the well dressed stranger. Lestrade looked to Sherlock for an explanation; he shook his head, which the older man took as a signal to stay quiet.
Sherlock, who was fiddling with the bow of his violin, brandished it towards his companion.

"Mycroft here takes an unhealthy interest in my personal life"

"Well, I am your brother"

"Yes, but I never asked you to be my keeper"

They glared at each other again and now. Lestrade saw the resemblance in their intent expressions.
The man called Mycroft was the first to break off, standing abruptly and turning to the Inspector.

"Don't hurt my brother Lestrade... I'll be watching.

With that he strode out, leaving Lestrade gaping after him. After a few moments the Inspector recovered, murmuring

"I can't believe I was threatened by your brother!"
