Secret Untold || SHERLIAM || Female William James Moriarty AU

Chapter 4: Reunited

"Lilliana, why don't you take Sherlock to your room and you both go have some time alone? I will take care of your part for you" Albert came from behind them spoke. He walked closer to Lilliana and whispered, "and it's your choice if you want to tell him the news now or announce it after the dinner" she nodded.

"Thank you brother" She smiled at him and dragged Sherlock to her room. Sherlock made Lilliana sat on the bed as he knelt down and rest his head on the blonde's laps, feeling contented. "I miss you so muchhh" Sherlock whined as he looked at his wife. Lilliana smiled as she brought her hands to caress and play with Sherlock's long hair and flicked his forehead.

"What happened in those three months?" Lilliana asked, tugging on Sherlock's shoulder so he could sit next to her on the bed to which Sherlock complied. "It's boring really, I went on missions in many different countries and got injured here and there—"

"Injured?!" Sherlock looked at Lilliana, "I got shot twice—none were fatal!" Sherlock immediately added once he sense the distress from his beloved wife. Lilliana frowned as she laid her head on the detective's shoulder. "You should have been more careful"

Sherlock sighed, "I know, I know. I'm sorry, love" Lilliana nodded, "Whatever happened cannot be undone, just be more careful in the future, if anything happens to you... I wouldn't be able to live and.." Lilliana trailed off, suddenly getting nervous.

"And?" Sherlock asked, she debated in her mind whether she should tell Sherlock now or wait until she announced it to the other after the dinner Sherlock deserves to know before them but she wanted to tell everyone including Sherlock at the dinner for the fun of it.

"What I meant to say is that... I don't want to lose my husband and... I don't want our children to lose a father figure too if we decide to start a family soon" She settled with that. She wanted to know how Sherlock will react when the word family was mentioned.

Sherlock raised his eyebrows as he nodded. "Hmm.. a family huh?" He whispered. "That would be nice to have small version of you running around our house" Lillian blushed as the detective turned to face her. "Or maybe a small version of you" She added.

"It's been three years since we've been married, no? It will be four soon. Do you think we should retire and just start our family with ten kids?" Sherlock joked, earning a hard shove from the woman and Sherlock fell to the floor.

Sherlock burst out laughing as Lilliana's cheeks turned into a rose red colour. "keep laughing and stay there!" She scoffed. "Alright I'm sorry I'm sorry.." Sherlock stood up as he wiped a tear away from his eyes.

"But think about it, Liane, the more the merrier they say" Lilliana looked at her husband, "Sherly, I can't quite possibly handle carrying that many children" She paused, thinking. "But that doesn't mean it is entirely impossible.." She mumbled. "But for the sakes of my health.. maybe five?"

"But hey" Sherlock extended his hand out to Lilliana to which she took it as Sherlock placed a kiss on the back of her hand"At the end of the day, it's your choice. You are the one carrying the child. How many children you want, I'll obey your decision"

Lilliana smiled as she pulled her husband into another kiss, it soon escalated. Sherlock gently pushed Lilliana onto the bed as she grabbed Sherlock closer by the neck. Lilliana then nibbled Sherlock's lip and slipped her tongue in, inhaling her detective hungrily.

As they broke apart, Lilliana's red lipstick was smudged and some of it transferred onto her husband's lips. Lilliana giggled as she wiped it off his lips and hers.

"I missed you so much, Sherly" another chaste kiss. "You're driving me crazy" another kiss.

Sherlock then helped his wife to get up from the bed as he lead her to sit on the chair in front of her vanity mirror.

"Sorry about that.. your hair and makeup is ruined"

Lilliana shook her head, "it's fine, I don't mind" Sherlock smiled at his wife from the mirror as he untie her hair and brushed it.

He then quickly styled her hair in a crown braid and finish it off by tying a ribbon. "I don't know how to do your previous hair.. this will have to do"

"I love it Sherly, thank you" Sherlock smiled as he picked up a lipstick and held Lilliana's face gently as he started moving the metal rod softly over her lips.

As he was finished, he admired his wife. "Beautiful" Lilliana giggled as she pulled the detective to meet her eye level and press a firm kiss on his cheek, her lipstick left a print.

"Keep it for the rest of the night, let them know you're mine" Lilliana winked, making the detective blushed.

"Anything for you, my love" Lilliana smiled as she got up and hooked her arm with her husband and head back to the dinner hall.
