Andrew Holst was a late thirties, average built, blond hair man and low rated criminal, that Sherlock would have never notice if not for the
fact that he was attracted and sexually obssesed with him. This, among other inconveniences, had the distinct fact that John was going to under
threat at some point. Like now.
The curious thing for Sherlock, was that it appeared that not even the best efforts of Holst, were enough; John had not even notice it.
Twice, he had been almost run over by a speeding car. The man had shrugged it off as bad luck and drunken drivers.
Just last night, the shrimps in his pasta were poisoned. He suspected it and could only confirmed it at the flat, after some analisys of shrimps
that were part of John's dinner last time. He took advantage of the moment John excuse himself to the loo and he pick out the small piece of
seafood and put it in a Ziplock bag. Fortunately, when the doctor came back to the table, he lost his footing, tried to gain purchase on the
edge of the table and he inadvertedly pushed the dish off the table. John's bad mood that night was monumental.
And just this afternoon, the doctor texted to let him know he'd take an extra shift, as one of his peers was ill. Sherlock who arrived to the
flat faster than expected, came to face what look like a scotch bottle atop John's desk...but of course Sherlock knew better.
