CHAPTER FOUR

"iced? Sugar? Creamer? Plain?"

"Iced one sugar and one cream please"

"We'll at least he has manners" john thinks to himself.

"Anything else ? Pastry or anything?

"No just coffee is fine thanks"

"Alright" sherlock goes up to the counter and comes back with a cup of iced coffee with everything john wanted in it. He sets it down in front of john on the table along with a chocolate muffin.sherlock has his own iced mocha in hand as he sits in the armchair beside john and sips it.

John takes his coffee and sips it. "Thanks mate"

"Your welcome" he sips his coffee and then slips off his coat but leaves on his scarf.

"I'll be back" john says as he stands and goes to the restroom to get changed he comes back out in a normal tee shirt and jeans with a bee on his shoulder that he hasn't noticed.

Sherlock walks over and offers the bee his finger and let's it crawls around in his hand.

"Erm....scrawny...that's going to sting you" john takes a step back.

"No I'm pretty good with bees....you just can't be afraid of them,or swat at them, then they don't bother you."

"Your a freak" john doesn't really mean it he's only teasing sherlock.he walks back over to the couch where he was sitting before. "When are you supposed to be home blare witch project?"

"My parents don't care as long as im home before midnight......and my name is sherlock" he says with little harshness.

"What's your full name ?"

"Why would that matter?"

"I'm just curious......why does it matter huh? What is it ?" John says in an antagonizing tone.

"William sherlock Scott holmes.....what's yours?"

"John hamish watson" he smirks "why don't you go by William ?" He sips his coffee .

"It's dull..." A very small smile graces his face. Why don't you like your middle name huh?"

"Who said I didn't like it?"

"It sounds like you don't....the way you said it."

"I don't like it because my father gave it to me"

"Daddy issues?"Sherlock asks.

"I do believe that is non of your business William "

John says just to be annoying .

"It's sherlock and if you don't want me in your business I can respect that. There is no need for you to get upset." Sherlock takes another sip of his coffee.

"I wasn't getting upset its just a sensitive topic that I have to talk about once a week at a da** support group and now I have to have "being daft to add to the list!!" Now john is upset.

"I'm sorry....and I don't think that support group is very helpful....."

"I don't either" he rubs his face. "I need friends. Yes, I'm popular with the girls and guys but I can't talk to them they would laugh they aren't my friends. The only one that I can think of that would listen and help me is my friend maya.....grade school ya know?...."

"And where is she?"

"She's sick, really sick..........erm......hospital.....leukemia...." John chokes out. This is another sensitive topic.

"Why don't you go visit her? The hospital is right down the street."

"I would have to let her know first.....she shouldn't have to hear about my problems....she has enough of her own"

John pulls out his phone and shows sherlock a picture of a strikingly beautiful girl with a pink fedora on her head with a flower on the side and john next to her sitting on her hospital bed with a black fedora on along with his glasses.

Sherlock smiles a little. "Nice hat." He teases. "Why don't you visit her tomorrow? She would like to hear from you I bet."

"That hat is my prized possession .....and I think I'll see her now" he stands up. "Coming?"

"Are you sure you want me to come? You just met me and I'm annoying...."

"She likes people" john says as he accidentally and unknowingly puts sherlocks coat on.

"Uh....that's my coat..."
