                                                           SHERLOCK’S POV
     “Sherlock! Listen!” Huh? Oh, John? “You zoomed out of there for a second there. Is there something distracting you?” Ugh! Moriarty’s on my mind! “No, I’m fine. I was just thinking of…  lunch! Of course! I’m just slightly hungry right now.” He stared my face down for a second, and grabbed a box full of my favorite food. “Well, you definitely won’t be hungry more after this.” I stared at his friendly, beautiful eyes and took a bite of my food. This actually tastes good! I ate and ate until, the box was empty. With my mind fully replenished, I scanned the room for any indicating factors of Moriar- no, no, no. NOT Moriarty. Ugh, why do I keep thinking of him? Never mind. I scanned the room once again and noticed a blue bag with a logo on it. Hmmm… What has John been doing? “John. Have you been shopping?” John looked towards the bag and opened it up. While I peered inside, John answered “Actually, I was buying a gift for you. I know you don’t use your phone that much, but I’d like to give you one.”
          He gently smiled and handed me a phone. “Happy birthday!” My birthday is today? Well I mean it feels like a regular old day. My family never really celebrated birthdays. “I appreciate the gesture, but you didn't need to buy me a gift.” He smiled and replied “No, I insist.” He stared at me with his puppy dog eyes and finally, I obliged. “OK fine John. I’ll take it. Umm so where’s my cake? I’m starving a bit right now.” He grasped the bag and slid out a cake with a custom made cake with the 221b street sign on it. “Wow.” Wait. Did I say that out loud?! “Umm I mean, you didn’t need to make it with our street sign on it, John.” He noticed the slip up I had made and grinned a bit. “Well. I’ll go leave you with this cake for now. The forks are in the bag, oh and I registered everybody’s phone number on your new phone.” With that, he slammed the door lightly and left me to the cake and phone. Oh, but he didn’t really need to. Well whatever, free cake. I snatched a fork from the plastic bag that John had left and took a bite. Well… it isn’t the worst thing in this world. While I ate, I scrolled through my phone and looked through my contexts. Donovan, Anderson, Greg, wait. Who's Greg? Never mind. John, Mycroft, Molly, and Mrs. Hudson. Mrs. Hudson has a phone too? As I reached to the bottom of the contacts list, a name caught my eye. “Miss me♡?” Darn it Moriarty. Knowing him, he probably hacked into my photo and put his contact in. Ding!
                Texting conversation:
M:So? Do you like what I did?
S: No.
M: But why? I worked extra hard for you.😘
S:Moriarty, I am immediately deleting this contact off my phone. 
M: Oh noooo. Nah I know you'd never delete me babe.
     Was this really te same Moriarty that I had talked with before? He was actually blushing before. I pressed the home button and went immediately to contacts. I clicked his icon with a heart next to it and pressed delete. Are you sure? This contact will be lost forever. I tapped yes and sighed a breath of relief. Ding!
M: Aww, too bad you can’t delete me. I installed a virus and it prevents you from deleting my specific contact.
S:…
M: Cat’s got your tongue? Never liked those things anyway. Anyway, I’ll go visit you soon. Sayonara~!
