HELLO READERS, HUGE CLIFFHANGER AT THE END OF THIS CHAPTER :D (P.S don't kill me) 

The Duke chuckled as we all sat down on the dining table, "AHAHAHAHAHA, you're a joker Holmes!" the duke smacked Sherlock on his shoulder as Sherlock just had a weird expression on his face. Anything Sherlock said coldly, the duke found it amusing for some reason. He had a weird sense of humor. Viola laughed nervously, the mansion they lived in was magnificent. It was beautifully ornamented with golden lush carvings everywhere.

"Your excellency, I think we should get going" Viola tried but the duke insisted "Ah no no, not so fast. Dessert comes first!" He demanded. "Of course, dessert" Viola gave him a fake smile. "So what are you working as Viola? Are you still a bad girl or has Holmes made a lady out of you?" the Duke asked with an amused look on his face.

"No your excellency, I'm past that now" Viola responded with uneasiness. "When's the big day then? I can see a baby growing there eh!" the duke was embarrassing Viola and Sherlock.

After he barged in on Maria and Sherlock in the middle of their quarrel and Viola bleeding her nose out, he scolded Maria for trying to start another scandal. He apologized on the behalf of his daughter where he asked Maria to go to her room and invited Viola and Sherlock to dinner. Note that he had no idea about the 'dinner' Maria was planning.

"I'm actually quiet pleased that Viola you're here visiting, I've been in contact with your grandpa! He's visiting soon" the Duke said and Viola's eyes widened when she heard all of that. "Oh my God, please don't tell him I'm pregnant?" She said quickly.

"I dont think Ill tell him but someone should, you're not getting any smaller" the Duke chuckled at his own 'joke' as Viola gulped looking down at her belly and back at Sherlock.

"Why were you so tense when the duke mentioned your grandpa?" Sherlock asked Viola as they sat down in their flat at Baker Street. "See my grandpa is a scary man" Viola started as Sherlock arched an eyebrow at her. "Like your father?" He asked.

"No no no, nothing like my father, he's quiet worse!" Viola whined putting her hands on her temples. "What would he do?" Sherlock asked. "Look, we have certain traditions, and me getting pregnant without even getting married is a huge deal in my family... my father is quiet old fashioned" Viola explained.

"Alright so we get married tomorrow then, problem solved" Sherlock said as he plopped down on his chair putting his feet up and sipped on his tea. Viola watched him irritated "Sherlock, don't be an idiot. It's not that easy..."

"Why? Exactly what can happen?"

"Henry visited me in prison and told me my grandpa's visiting. He was quiet upset about the whole pregnancy thing..." Viola said remembering her father's words.

"Go on?"

"Well, look, marriage is not an easy thing in our family. You've got to take permission first from my parents...which is Henry, my grandpa and grandma and of course Aline, who wouldn't mind" Viola stated as Sherlock nodded.

"Ill pay your father a visit then" Sherlock shrugged still not taking this matter seriously.

"Sherlock, my father might be okay with it after convincing him. But my grandfather would literally shoot your brains out!" Viola snapped.

"Don't give this too much thought, we can solve it out" Sherlock assured her, as she rolled her eyes at him "Yeah, sure when you do meet grandpa, I think you'll have a different opinion of that" Viola retorted glaring at him in the process.

"We'll see" Sherlock yawned as he got up placed his tea cup on the saucer and went over to Viola. "Let's go to bed?" He asked her quietly, seeing the worry coat her face. "Yeah sure" She got up and he took her hand turning her around.
