John's POV
Me and Sherlock were standing with Lastrade looking at the dead girl. She still had her clothes on which apparently meant that this was a revenge thing.
"She was walking down the ally, on the way to work, then someone grabbed her from behind and pulled into the shadows."
My phone rang so I excused myself and walked away to answer it.
"WHY THE HELL DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?!" I got when I answered the phone. Mel.
"What are you talking about?" I asked.
"Gianna is pregnant!" She told me.
"What?" I asked stepping backwards a bit.
"Gianna is pregnant." She said slower this time.
I hung up the phone and sat down. Sherlock walked over to me.
"Gianna's pregnant." I told him.
"Do you want to go home? I told Lastrade who it is." He told me.
I nodded and got up and walked over to the taxi he hailed. I got in and Sherlock told the person the address and we started to go.
"Who did it?" I asked.
"The highest paying clients wife. His name was George Anderson. His wife found out yesterday that he was cheating on her with that girl. I could tell that because the girl had bruises the size of a woman's hand on her neck. That was the cause of death, but the woman tried to make it look like her husband did it. So she slit her throat."
I nodded absently. I looked back out the window.
Mel's POV
Gianna was going to be here in a few minutes so I decided that now was a good time for me to get changed out of my pajamas. I decided on a lace top with lace jeans. I also put on a green hooded coat and high heel work boot like shoes.
I walked down stairs and sat on the couch. I heard a knock at the door. I got up and walked down to answer it. Standing there was Gianna.
"Hey come in." I said walking back up stairs.
I heard Gianna following me up. We walked into the lounge room and sat down.
"What's up Buttercup?" I asked.
"I think. I think I'm uhh, pregnant." She said quietly.
My eyes went wide with shock.
"Have you told John?" I asked.
"I was planing to do it when he came to my place tonight." She told me.
"Okay...." There was a pause. "I'm calling him." I said picking up my phone.
"No!" She yelled trying to snatch it off of me.
I got up and started to run.
I ran to Sherlock's room and locked the door.
The phone was answered.
"WHY THE HELL DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?!" I yelled at him pretending that I thought he knew.
"What are you talking about?" He asked confused.
"Gianna's pregnant." I told him.
I could hear Gianna on the other side sitting on the couch sighing.
"What?" He asked still confused.
"Gianna is pregnant." I told him slower this time.
He hung up without saying anything else.
I unlocked the door and saw Gianna sitting down with her head in her hands.
"Gianna, it's better to do it now rather than later. And he finds out by someone you wouldn't want him to. Like Sherlock." I told her.
She looked up and laughed at the last part.
"Yeah... You're right." She said.
"Aren't I always?" I asked sarcastically with a eyebrow raised.
Sherlock's POV
We got back to the flat and John pretty much sprinted inside.
I sighed and followed him in. When we got in, we found Mel and Gianna on the couch. Mel was asleep and Gianna was staring into space with wide eyes.
John walked over to her and kneeled in front of her.
"Gianna? Are you okay?" He asked.
She looked up at him.
"Yeah I'm fine. Just want to go home." She told him.
"I'll take you home." He told her helping her up.
Once they left I walked over to Mel. I saw that she was still asleep so I sat where Gianna was sitting previously.
"I honestly thought that that would be more dramatic." A voice beside me said.
I looked next to me and saw Mel staring at me.
"Quite right Mel. Quite right." I told her leaning my head back and closing my eyes.
I felt her move and I opened my eyes. I saw her above me.
"Sherlock," she said.
"Yes Mel."
"I love you." She told me.
"I love you to Mel." I said.
She bent down and brushed her lips against mine. She pulled away, about to get up. But I pulled her back down and kissed her.
I don't know how long we were kissing for but when she pulled away again I noticed I was out of breath.
