Genevieve POV
I woke up at 7:00am to the sound of that goddam alarm clock. Grrr I hate that thing. I had a surgery booked in for 9:15, I was not injured or requiring plastic surgery. It was my job. I walked groggily into the bathroom ready to take a shower. A much needed shower. I stripped myself of my pyjamas and climbed into the shower.

I walked out of the shower feeling very much refreshed, and ready to start my day. I had picked out blue and white China plate patterned trousers, a white blouse and some brown brogues. I swiftly dried my self and got dressed ready to blow dry and straighten my hair.
I got into my car and started heading to the hospital, ready to start the day with an 8 hour long surgery. When I arrived Dr Green approached me, smiling but with a hint of nervousness displayed on his wrinkled, kind face. "Hi Genevieve, umm look your surgery has been covered by Alissa today there's a job I need you to do" he said making full eye contact. "Another job?" I questioned with shock. "Well since you are the most experienced with spines I thought you could help out on a suspected suicide. Three breakages in the spine" he replied nervously. "Well I guess I could do it, I mean my surgery has been taken care of" I replied slightly disappointed.

I got into my black Mercedes and drove down to my temporary job. As I entered the building I was greeted by the receptionist, a kind looking woman with a face full of warmth. "Hello dear, you must be the surgeon, just head up to room 114 where the body is and start looking at his back. Here's his medical history" she said handing me a binder full of paper.

I entered room 114 and put on a lab coat. I looked around and there I saw the body of Aleksander Resnik. As I walked closer I could clearly see how misshapen his back was due to injury.

Sherlock POV
I was about to check on the body when I noticed a woman, who had obviously beaten me to it. I stood there watching her take notes "Thoracic spine damaged at 59 degrees to the left, lumbar clean break. Where is my notepad?" I picked it up and handed it to her, she blushed such a marvellous colour. A pinky red. "Thank you, I'm Genevieve. I was sent from the hospital to inspect the.body of Mr Aleksander Resnik." She peeled off her latex glove about to reach for the notepad. "Holmes. Sherlock Holmes." I introduced myself, I was about to ask her about her findings until John burst in "I'm so sorry I left you with him. I'm John and you must be Dr Baudin?" He said breathing rather heavily. "Just Genevieve. Honestly Mr Holmes was rather helpful finding my notepad for me" she said smiling. It was now my turn to go "Just Sherlock" I looked at her and winked. She went back to Aleksander and continued. John approached me with the smile of the Cheshire Cat. Oh crap. "You should ask Genevieve to go get coffee with you after work" he whispered still smiling like that stupid cat. I looked at him "is it obvious that I like her?" I asked. John turned to look and me and talk "well considering we all thought you were asexual.." He then proceeded to say "yes, for me it is."

Genevieve POV
"So we have possible causes of murder, euthanasia or weak bones and suicide. Though it's most likely murder. Just do a test test tomorrow" I said, talking to myself unaware that Sherlock was behind me. "Murder sounds about right" he said smiling at me. " I was talking to myself again, wasn't I ?" I asked feeling my cheeks burn up. "Even I talk to myself...." Sherlock said half way through his sentence before John interrupted with "he talks to himself a lot, and to the skull." Skull, must be an inside joke. " I'm feeling coffee today, would you like to come with me now to go get some?" He asked. "Starbucks?" I asked.
Sherlock and I walked out of the building laughing, in the last couple of minutes he had told the story of how stupid some of the detectives were at Scotland Yard. We arrived at Starbucks still in the best of moods. An hour had passed and we had decided to go for a walk down through the park. It felt just right. Was I falling for a man I had only known for two hours?

Sherlock POV
Talking to Genevieve was great. She was just so beautiful and the most intelligent woman I had ever met. We started walking through Hyde park and I could truly say that it was a night worth spending.

Genevieve was about to come back from ballet any minute now. I was waiting outside her door with roses in my hands. I was about to ask her out. Five minutes later I saw her pull up only just noticing me when she bumped into me. "I'm so sorry Sherlock, do you want to come in?" She asked. I handed her the flowers and walked in with her. We sat down on her sofa, I looked at her and asked "Will you go out with me?"

~Two years later~

Genevieve POV
Sherlock had asked me to meet him at Hyde park, by the water fountain. I got ready in a beautiful blue dress and brown gladiator sandals. I walked over to see him in a full suit. "Damn Sherlock why didn't you tell me the dress code" I asked in a jokey way. He looked up at me, smiled and said you look stunning darling. I was too busy feeling flattered to notice he had gotten on to one knee. "Genevieve, will you marry me?" Shocked I started crying and managed to whisper a "yes." He then slid a beautiful ring on to my finger then kissed my hand. What a gentleman!

~Two months later~

Today I was moving into Sherlock's flat. I was nervous, I moved to get out of bed and start the day. Half an hour later the removal men had appeared at my flat with Sherlock to move my belongings to his flat. I was quite nervous, I was still a virgin. Would I have to have sex tonight?

Twelve hours later I was fully unpacked and about to get into bed with my beloved. I had chosen a pair of silk pyjamas to wear tonight. I walked into our bedroom to find him reading the newspaper, I quickly slipped in under the covers and gently kissed his cheek.

Sherlock POV
I felt a kiss on my cheek. I liked being kissed by her soft lips. I had never thought I would find the one. All the girl I had met were just
not right for me. Molly Hooper was just too available, Jeanine was too stupid (for me) and I just didn't really think I was attracted to anyone.
