The World In Our Hands (Sherlolly/John Mary)

The accident (chapter 3)

SHERLOCK

As I walked down baker street I saw an ambulance race by me, someone probably over dosed. After I left I went to the flat. Molly and Hamish were not there. That scared me a little. Normally she would text me or call if she was leaving or when she got to the flat but she was not there nor did she text. I went down stairs and asked miss Hudson if she knew where they went she said they did not come back after we left.

Now I'm scared, that is unlike Molly I ran to John and Mary's I got there and I did not even knock I just busted in.

"What the hell Sherlock....(then he saw the shear panic on my face) what's wrong are you ok is Molly ok is Hamish ok"

By this time I was almost hysterical I told John how they where not at the flat and how Molly did not text or call or return any of mine. So John and I were off we took her normal route home there. Then I got a call from the last place I ever wanted to hear from st Bartholomew hospital....How could I have been so ordinary the ambulance it was stopped a little away from 221b. I was being so stupid it never crossed my mind they where in that ambulance.

The realization finally hit me. My heart sank I answered they told me there had been an accident Molly was severely hurt Hamish had a couple of bumps and bruises. When I got there, Molly was in surgery according to the doctors she had a broken leg and arm, punctured lung and really bad concussion they had to induce a coma John had just got there he was out of breath I had just regained my breath. John handed me my phone it was cracked just as I knew it would be.

As soon as I finished with the phone I dropped it and ran John picked it up I ran for two miles to get there and John must have taken a little break because he was pretty far behind me by this time I was holding Hamish he was crying and carrying on. I was telling John what was going on Molly was pushing the buggy with Hamish in it on the side walk and a car jumped the curb hit Molly but just nicked the buggy causing it to flip making Hamish fall out the car hit only one other person and it killed him the car kept going never stopped or slowed down.

JOHN

After Sherlock finished telling me what happened he looked at me with a look I had never seen before. I could not see his face during the reichenbach falls but I think it would be some what similar but worse his eyes were filling with tears he almost looked the same as the hounds of Baskerville when he was experiencing an emotion but worse. I know he is not a hugger but neither am I, but in this case I hugged him as he cried into my shoulder. I have never seen him cry before he is really scared, he was like a five year old that is scared of the dark.

"I don't know what to do John. Less than an hour ago I was thinking and planing are wedding and how to propose to her and now I'm thinking what if she doesn't make it and I have to raise Hamish by my self and I would have to plan her funeral and what to say to her grave.....I can't do it I don't know how to."

"Sherlock don't she will be perfectly fine it will be okay"

"NO IT IS NOT OKAY (his voice cracked)...... you do not know that she-"

His voice had a sound in it I have never heard come from him it was pure fright, sadness his voice even cracked I was upset too but I had to be strong for him and try to keep him calm

"Calm Down you have to keep it together for Hamish's sake he needs you and Molly needs you to keep it together"
