Sherlock and John had finished secondary school. The fifteen year olds enjoyed holidays together, and this year they weren't going abroad or anywhere. They were just going to stay at home as far as their plans went.

John dragged Sherlock out to go clothes shopping and as they sat in a coffee shop on two cosy chairs by the window enjoying some tea they were interrupted by a group of five girls, around their age, who came and sat on the sofa and chairs close to theirs.

"Hi boys!" One confidant girl smiled at them flirtatiously.

"Afternoon." John greeted them with a passing smile and continues to talk to Sherlock quietly about how he was worried about Harry.

"So, what are you two doing around here without girls on your arms?" Another girl asked loudly.

Sherlock sent them an irritated look and John sighed and knew that they could no longer converse freely with these loud girls next to them.

"We don't have girlfriends. We're-"John was cut off.

"Really? Well that's lucky as me and Natty here are looking for two guys. What are your names?" she asked.

John sighed "I'm John, this is Sherlock. And though I'm flattered by your offer we're actuall-"the girl cut him off again.

"I'm Jenny. And this is Natty." She pointed to the girl next to her.

"Good to meet you, but seriously listen, we're-"John was yet again cut off.

"It's nice to meet you too." Natty finally voiced shyly.

"Listen, we're going to the cinema in half an hour. Do you want to come, and for now we can just get to know each other?" Jenny suggested.

All the girls started talking at once and giggling.

"Will you shut up?" Sherlock said rudely and loudly.

All the girls were stunned into silence.

"You barely let John get a word in! Let people finish their sentences and maybe you won't look like such fools in the future." Sherlock scowled.

"What?" Jenny asked.

"Oh for goodness sake." Sherlock growled. He leant over the table, grabbed John by the front of his jumper and pulled him in for a kiss. Sherlock invaded John's mouth with his tongue and John involuntarily moaned. After a few moments John pulled away and they both sat back in their chairs.

"You're... gay?" Natty asked quietly.

"Yes." Sherlock and John said together.

Natty looked fine but Jenny suddenly said "Hey, most people go through experimental stages. Are you sure you don't want to just get to know us? We might... change your mind." She leant forward and pushed her chest out a bit.

"John and I are very much in love. We have been together for ten years and we would both appreciate it if you stopped attempting to guess what we think and let us speak for ourselves. You have to be one of the most loud and annoying girls I have ever met." Sherlock said cruelly.
