John noticed a note on the baby's blanket.

Picking it up, John began reading out loud.

Dear new loving family,

This child's name is James.
He is sweet, smart, and adorable.

You may wonder why I left this child at your door.

I can no longer take care of James, I want to give him the life I never had.

A life with a loving family.

Please take good care of James for me, and raise him as your own.

Goodbye.

Signed,
A lonely mother.

John gasped and looked up at Sherlock.

"Sherlock..."

John put the baby in the small carrier it had come in, covering it with a blanket.

"What should we do?"

Sherlock picked up the note.

"Do what it says, give it a loving family."

"With wh-"

"Us."

"Us?! But how, Sherlock! We just got married and our lives are dangerous!"

"Does that mean you don't want children?"

"No, well, that's not what I mean..."

Sherlock rose from his seat, walking over to John and grabbing his hands.

"John Hamish Watson-Holmes, will you have a child with me?" He asked, staring into his eyes.

John couldn't help but smile.

"Fine. Yes, my love, I will."

[HEYYYY! Sorry it room me so long to update.
GUESS WHAT?!
I'm sick!
