AN: So this is my version of a "text-fic" between John and Sherlock. Threw in some Mycroft towards the end because he's amusing in his own way. And I love the idea of John being cheeky towards him. Anyway – this is just a plot-bunny that refused to leave me alone – hopefully it turned out okay.

Disclaimer: I'm praying to Santa to bring me the right to Sherlock. Until he does so I own nothing.

12:00

I'm bored

SH

12:02

I'm at work Sherlock

JW

12:02

I'm aware of your location

SH

12:03

I mean I'm busy

JW

12:03

No you're on break.

SH

12:04

That's beside the point. I could be busy.

JW

12:04

But you're not. And I'm bored.

SH

12:05

So do an experiment or something.

JW

12:06

No material.

SH

12:08

So drop by Bart's and ask Molly for something. I'm sure she would love to see you.

JW

12:09

Yes. But I'd rather not see her.

SH

12:09

That's not nice Sherlock.

JW

12:10

No it isn't. But why is that relevant?

SH

12:11

Why do I bother?

JW

12:11

Bother with what?

SH

12:12

Nothing. Never mind.

JW

12:20

John have you ever thought about us in a romantic sense?

SH

12:22

Where the hell did that come from?

JW

12:24

Ms. Hudson just came up. Made another comment about the two of us being so sweet together when she saw I was texting you at the clinic. Everyone else seems to think of us as more than friends. Just curious.

SH

12:26

Oh. Well yeah. I suppose.

JW

12:26

And?

SH

12:29

And I think it sounds a bit like a bad romance novel. The Doctor and the Detective.

JW

12:29

I'm offended. Detective should come first.

SH

12:29

Right. My mistake.

JW

12:30

Forgiven.

SH

12:35

Have you?

JW

12:35

Have I what?

SH

12:36

Thought about it?

JW

12:36

Thought about what?

SH

12:37

Don't play coy with me Sherlock. You know.

JW

12:37

Do I?

SH

12:38

Sherlock!

JW

12:38

Yes John?

SH

12:39

Stop being a prat. Answer the question

JW

12:39

Fine. Yes

SH

12:40

And?

JW

12:40

And I think you're right. The Doctor and the Detective sounds like a rubbish romance novel.

SH

12:41

Oh. Right

JW

12:41

The Detective and His Blogger has some potential though.

SH

12:41

Really?

JW

12:42

Really.

SH

12:42

How much potential?

JW

12:42

Would you to get on with it already!

MH

12:42

Mycroft!

JW

12:42

Stop hacking our texts!

SH

12:43

I'm merely looking out for your welfare little brother.

MH

12:43

Don't you have a government to run? Or perhaps some cake to eat?

SH

12:43

Mycroft would you just but out? This is a private conversation.

JW

12:43

Not anymore.

MH

12:44

What if the conversation were to turn into a rather personal conversation? Between two potential lovers.

JW

12:44

I'm curious to see where this goes.

SH

12:44

You wouldn't dare.

MH

12:45

Really? Sherlock do you recall that time you arrived at Buckingham Palace in nothing but a sheet?"

JW

12:45

Dr Watson!

MH

12:46

I asked if you where wearing anything under that sheet. You said no. Remember how we laughed?

JW

12:46

Like schoolchildren!

MH

12:46

It was amusing!

SH

12:47

Well I wasn't laughing because it was amusing. I was laughing to distract myself. I was laughing because if I didn't I would have jumped you right then and there.

JW

12:47

John Hamish Watson! Cease and desist immediately!

MH

12:47

Full name Mycroft? Really? You're not my older brother.

JW

12:48

Excellent John!

SH

12:48

Shut up Sherlock!

MH

12:49

Leave our conversation.

JW

12:49

No. I feel it is vital to your safety that I have constant surveillance of you.

MH

12:50

Seriously Mycroft. Finale warning. Give us our privacy or I will begin to describe in rather vivid detail exactly what I wanted to do to your younger brother that day. Starting with the removal of the sheet.

JW

12:50

Oh god John.

SH

12:51

I never thought you would sink so low.

MH

12:51

Yeah well spending so much time with you two manipulative gits must have rubbed off on me.

JW

12:51

I'm offended!

SH

12:52

Indeed.

MH

12:52

So?

JW

12:52

So what?

MH

12:52

So why are you still in this conversation?

JW

12:53

Fine. You win Dr Watson. I'll remove the surveillance from your phones.

MH

12:53

Wonderful!

JW

12:55

Mycroft?

SH

12:56

Seems like he's gone.

JW

12:56

Yes. So please continue with that 'vivid description" you mentioned earlier.

SH

12:56

Can't. Done with break.

JW

12:57

Bloody tease.

SH

If convenient please review. If inconvenient review anyway.
