It's cold and snowing at the Baker Street. Freezing.

John Watson was wearing the new jumper Mrs. Hudson offered him. A red with snowmen and green stripes.

Sherlock Holmes was reading a book. John looked, and sighed.

He's so bloody cute when he's peaceful...

-John?

-Yes?

-It's cold.

-It's winter.

-I require coffee John.

-Only if you ask in an another way.

-.....Please?

-Sure.

Sherlock was really bored. There wasn't any case for 1 month and half ago. John confiscated his gun, and threw away all the nicotine patches.

All Sherlock had for distractions was his violin, but he had no inspiration.

-Here. Brought you a jumper.

-Thanks. What day are we?

-December the 1st.

-Dear Lord... Nearly Christmas..

-If you don't want, we can spend Christmas here, and not at your parents' house, nor mine.

-And what will we do then?

-Spend time together.

-Together? And what will we do? For instance, what will we do now?

-Snows outside. Wanna play?

-Do people play in the snow?

-You never built a snowman nor a fort?

-Maybe once or twice...

-Come on, get your shoes on, we'll play.

-What for?

-No cases, no inspiration, no nicotine patches, no --

-That's it, that's it I come. But your jumper is too small.

John gave a glance to Sherlock, and saw that the jumper was really too small.
