Tender Love (Sherlock X Pregnant!Reader) [COMPLETED]

Chapter 1: A new addition

You’ve been living with the famous Sherlock Holmes for about 5 months now, ever since the little party that you got together at.  He actually let you share his room, as John was still staying in the other one. He always smiled at you even when he was at his angriest and gave you a kiss every morning and when he came home from a case. Even though you both decided you would abstain until marriage, neither of you could seem to control yourself when sleeping next to each other. Why mention this? It’s simple; you have just found out that you are pregnant, with Sherlock Holmes the consulting detective.

You were sure he didn’t know yet, it was too early to tell and if he did know he would have brought it up immediately. It was unlike him to not tell someone something that he had just figured out, it was in his nature to just do it. You were beginning to have the symptoms of pregnancy now and slowly but surely you could see a small and perfectly round bump showing on your lower stomach, the baby was growing. Obviously you were really happy to find this out when you took the pregnancy test alone, but would Sherlock be? The only way you could know was if you told him… or if he found out.

There were so many questions that came into mind when you thought about the baby. It was so silly how scared you were of something so small, but you weren’t scared of the baby, you were scared of what Sherlock would do; he could be excited or just not want you around at all.

You smiled at the thought of Sherlock trying to teach a little toddler how to talk, it would have the same curly hair and dimples like dad. When is Sherlock coming back? BEEP. You checked your phone to find a new text message from Sherlock. ‘Be home soon love. P.S do not worry about any blood on my clothing, I got caught up in a fight during my case –SH’ He was on his way home soon, should you tell him now? The thoughts of it all were all coming back into your mind and it made you extremely nervous, to the point of making your stomach twist inside. You heard the front door open downstairs, John and Sherlock are back.

Nerves got the best of you when you saw Sherlock opening the apartment door, you bolted to the bathroom and kneeled over the toilet. You threw up and footsteps came from behind you, the figure crouched next to you and a pair of beautiful crystal eyes were looking concerned at you.
“Are you alright?” you nodded. “You know, I can tell you are lying. So don’t try this with me. John?” He called.
“Yes Sherlock?”
“Can you make sure Y/N is alright? She doesn’t look too well at the moment and I’m worried about her.”
“Yeah sure of course. Come Y/N,” he walked over to you and helped you up, you felt a bit weak but you managed to walk into Sherlock’s room and sit on the bed.

John checked your pulse, eyes, the usual things a doctor would do. “Well I don’t see anything wrong. Did you perhaps eat something that could have made you sick?”
“No I’m sure it wasn’t anything I ate. Listen I need to tell Sherlock something, something big… and I don’t know if I can do it.”
“I’m sure he’ll be fine with it, nothing can put Sherlock off.”
“How is he with children?”
“Why? Oh- Oh you’re?” He was shocked when you nodded, “Congratulations,” he smiled and gave you a hug.
“Thank you John. Do you think he might be upset about this?”
“I have no idea. He might be, but then again he’d teach the child deduction and everything else so it could be like him. There could be either possibility, the only choice you could have is to tell him and see what happens.” He suggested.
“No need to tell me.” Sherlock said standing at the open door, you realised he did indeed have blood on his clothing, “Y/N may I have a word with you please, in private,” he looked at John with a face that was very clear. You walked over to Sherlock, who led you to the bathroom and shut the door.
