Little Games - Sherlock X Reader

Explanation & Something Extra

Um... Hello Wattpad. LISTEN! I can explain EVERYTHING! But first, you gotta promise to read every last page. Or, at least of the A/N. Promise? Shake on it. Good. Right:
1) MERRY CHRISTMAS!! Or happy... Hanukkah? I think that might be today-ish. I'm so sorry everyone! I'm literally living under a rock and I don't know anything about the real world anymore. Anyway, whatever you celebrate around this time, HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!! Now, speaking of Christmas leads me onto number 2.

2) SURPRISE! For Christmas, I'm thinking of releasing a substitute book for writer's block, but making it to the best of my ability. It's a one-shot book! Or imagine book. Whatever you wanna call it. For Christmas, since I've been shopping and spending all day OFF my phone for half the holidays, I think I should make it up to you with an example one-shot, to familiarise yourself with my writing style. Now, every single one of you need to remember this; I'M FRIENDLY!! Seriously, you wanna talk? let's pop over to the PM's. You've got an idea you want me to add into the story? TELL ME! :) I will take every single one of your requests into account, whether it's a new book you want or an extra unrelated chapter for fun, talk to me about it! I don't bite, promise. Okay, so one-shot. It's going to be Sherlock because it's obviously a Sherlock book but this one-shot book I'm making is not, I repeat, IS NOT just Sherlock one-shots. From video games to movies, I'll write anything I've got a prompt for! ^.^ So, onto the SHERLOCK CHRISTMAS ONE-SHOT!!!!
(P.S– (F/I) stands for First Initial

Sherlock– Sherlock X Reader

Title: The Christmas Set-Up
Warnings: None
Prompt: It's the first week of December and your Christmas spirit is uncontainable, and you unleashed it on 221B with decorations and music and tried to get John and Sherlock in the mood.
Spoilers: None
===============================
Your phone beeped a recognisable tune that only set off when John was texting you. With an eager bounce, you leapt off the sofa where you were reading The Mortal Instruments and snatched your phone from the kitchen table. Why it was there and not on the coffee table, you will never know.

It's with me downstairs. When will Sherlock be back? How much time have we got? Could you give me a hand?

With a roll of your eyes, you started to text back, unintentionally tripping over a box which held different types of Christmas ornaments for the tree. Unfortunately, the tree isn't where it's supposed to be, so that's going to have to change.

Is it?! Brilliant! And stop panicking John, Sherlock isn't going to be back until later. Lestrade's keeping him busy and I have them both on text alert. When Sherlock's leaving Lestrade will text me and make his way over here with Molly. So that answered two questions. And yes, I'll give you a hand you lazy sibling!

Thud. Yes, younger sister of John Hamish Watson just tripped over another box of Christmas baubles. Pocketing your phone, you swung open the closest exit and rocketed down the stairs, flinging the door open. Unexpectedly, instead of your brother's face, you were greeted with the top of a Christmas tree from the looks of it.
"Thanks John!" You squealed in delight, lunging towards John and wrapping your arms around him tightly.
"It's nippy outside. Can we get this thing upstairs?" He asked into your shoulder. You nodded your head and grabbed a stable part of the tree and lifted it up, walking backward up the stairs.

As you were halfway up, you stumbled on the stairs and fell on your bottom, the tree on your head. John peered through the branches that concealed his face.
"Come on! Get up you big oaf! We've got work to do!" John teased, and with a roll of your eyes you sprung up and yanked the tree up into the flat.
"By the way, if you call big (H), then what's Sherlock?" You questioned.
