The Lovely Moriarty(3)

15 - The Support.

A week has passed and I was starting to get a small baby bump. It was barley noticeable, but it was there.

James has been supportive 24/7. We went to the doctors. The baby was healthy and growing fast.

Olivia has come over twice since we met. She was due any second now, and I was happy for her.

Today James was gone on work, like he usually is. I was sitting in the living room watching Doctor Who when the door bell rings.

I go to the door and look out the peek hole. It's John.

"Hey, John. Why are you here," I ask as I open the door.

"Nothing much. I wanted to come and check on you since I found out you were having a baby," he responds.

"That's very nice of you. Come in."

He steps inside and we go to the living room.

"I'm sorry about Sherlock bugging you about a week ago. He thought he had a lead on a murder, but I think he just felt guilty and wanted to make sure you were still alive," John says.

"I think you're right. He's very nice under the wall he had put up."

"So, I must ask, how's the baby?"

"I went to a doctor, and the baby is completely healthy."

"That's amazing! I would suggest you coming to me, but that's not my specialty. I'm here if you need me though."

"I understand. It's ok. Thank you, though."

"My pleasure! I was actually going to lunch and I was wondering if wanted to go?"

"James would kill me if he found out I went out to eat with you!"

"I'll take all the blame. Promise."

"Ok, I'm going to change."

"You don't have to change! You look fine now."

"I have to keep the image up. Remember, I'm a Moriarty." I hold up my hand to show him my rings. He smiles and I go upstairs.

I grab an off white dres with flowers the same color all over it. It has sleeves that go down to my wrists and a high neckline.

I head back downstairs and John is at the door.

"Ready to go," John asks.

"Yea," I say and smile.
