Who is She?

Who is she?

Chapter 2: Pregnant?!

The day before:

Molly sat in her bathroom staring down at the small plastic indicator in her hands. “Positive” she whispered.

Sherlock and Molly had been dating for nearly two years now, since he returned from his supposed “death” which she had helped fake. She had no idea how he would react to the news, especially coupled with the other news she had been hoping to tell him and all her other friends.

She had been sure she was pregnant for over a month, but hadn’t really taken notice of the fact that she might be but now was her proof. She wasn’t really sure either how Sherlock would take the news, even though they were now in a serious committed relationship. Well at least as serious as you can get with an overgrown man child who didn’t know how to control his feelings as such. She thought.

The next day

*beep, beep, beep*

“Urgh!” Molly mumbled as she turned over to switch the now beeping alarm clock off. 6:30 am the clock read, “Maybe just 5 more minutes” she said before returning to the warmth of her covers.

“Wouldn’t do that if I were you” A woman stood by the door, gesturing for Molly to get up. “Alice, what are you doing here?”

“Oh, nice to see you too.” She said in a sarcastic voice.

“Lily called me this morning, your Mum wants to see you later after you’ve finished work, says it’s urgent.”

“Well I should probably get ready for work then” Molly replied.

“Simon is with me; he brought breakfast for you.”

“Thank you”

“I’ll leave you to get ready then. We can talk while you have breakfast.” She replied as she left the room closing the door as she exited.

Molly got out of bed and shuffled over to the en suite to have a shower and get ready; as if nothing had just happened and it was a normal day. Fully dressed she wondered into her kitchen to be met by the smell of a full English breakfast and the sight of her two friends and employees, who were sat at the table texting and reading the paper.

“Mike’s going to collect you from the back door at St Barts after your shift later if that’s ok. Probably in the dark blue Jaguar, and we will wait in your house to take you from there.” Alice mentioned.

“Yeah that sounds fine. I will try not to get held behind after my shift too long.” Molly replied while she ate her breakfast.

“Well I better be off then. See you later.” Molly said as she opened the front door.

“By the way congratulations!” Alice added as Molly put one foot out of the house.

“For what?” Molly asked.

“Your pregnancy”

“How the hell do you know about that?” Molly asked slowly.

“You left the test in the bathroom.”

“Oh ok, thanks. Just don’t tell anyone. That includes you Simon.”

“Oh yeah, don’t worry.” He said smiling, as Molly finally walked out the door.

Alice turned back to Simon and said “They make such the power couple don’t they? Molly and Sherlock. A match made in heaven. They love each other and they definitely make a cute couple!”
