Do Not Open

"Don't look in the fridge!" Sherlock yells from the sitting-room.

"Didn't know you were back," John grumbles.

He'd only taken the extra shift last night because Sherlock was away. It's 6 a.m. and he's exhausted. He wants tea. Now.

Fuck knows what's in the fridge this time. Probably not a severed head, because Sherlock doesn't usually repeat himself.

Today of all days he would really like a nice cup of tea and then bed. Not a stand-up row with the world's only consulting detective. But it looks as if that wish isn't going to be granted either.

John opens the fridge door, bracing himself. No body parts on view. They're probably just lurking in that big white box though. Bloody Sherlock.

The milk's at the back of the fridge so he has to pull the box out.

"I said don't!"

John just registers that Sherlock's naked and aroused; then the box pops open, startling him so much he nearly drops it.

"Spoiled my surprise," Sherlock complains. "Where were you?"

"Hospital. Night shift," John says. "Is that chocolate fudge cake?"

"The cake's for later, really," Sherlock says with an insinuating expression, "but you might want to try some of the icing now."

"You remembered," John says.

"Idiot," says Sherlock, pulling him in close for a kiss. "Of course I did. Happy birthday."
