I apologize if this is quite bad, and I know I do a lot of Sherlock x Reader but I will post a different character, it will either be a Molly, Irene or Lestrade x Reader.
Enjoy!
You've been working for Jim Moriarty for a good two years, throughout the two years you've grown close. The two of you flirted constantly but neither of you made a move. You were scared of rejection and although Jim would never admit it to anyone, not even Sebastian, that he was scared of rejection too.
You were the most beautiful woman he's ever met, he met you through a client and decided to let you work for him, it didn't take much convincing. You usually gave and dropped off files and paperwork and you would have to seduce men, clients of his for information and much more. You'd never sleep with any of them nor has Jim ever asked you too.
You had fallen for him, even though you knew what kind of man he is, and he's fallen for you too. But you'd never admit it, neither has he. You two were merely friends. But that'll all change soon.
"Y/N/N?" You hear a voice and you turn around "James. To what do I owe this pleasure?" You smile and he looks at you "I have a job for you" you nod "and who's this client?" You ask and he looks at you "not much as a client, more as an. Enemy" he grins "which enemy is this?" You ask and he looks at you.
"Sherlock Holmes" he replies and you nod "and when would you like me to start?" You ask and he looks at you "today" you nod and smile "and if it doesn't go well?" You ask and he looks at you "go for his friend, John Watson" you nod "I'll have to get ready. I'll tell you how it goes, handsome" you wink before walking away.
You swear you saw a tint of pink coating his cheeks but you decided against teasing him about it. You do enjoy your life.

You see Sherlock walking down the street, he is quite handsome, if you say so yourself. You "accidentally" bump into him, you're about to fall back but his hands grab onto your arms quickly pulling you up "oh my god, I'm so sorry. I should have watched where I was going" you sigh and look up to him.
His brows furrow for a moment and nods "you should have" you look at him and fake a smile. He's looking at you longer then needed, Jim said something about deducing and he may be trying to do that right now.
"Again, I'm sorry" you're about to walk away but you feel him grab your arm softly "wait" you look at him "I can't read you" he says and you smile "and?" You ask and he nods "well. If you read the tabloids or the papers you should know who I am" you nod "I've seen you on a website or two, don't read the tabloids or papers that much. I find it to be a waste of time" you smile
"Would you erm. Would you like to join me for a coffee?" He asks and you raise a brow "I don't even know you. Not personally anyways. Why would you want to have a coffee with someone you don't know? I could be a serial killer for all you know" you smirk and he chuckles "there is always that possibility" you fake another smile.
"Luckily for you, I'm not. You're paying" he nods and you walk with him "I know of a great little place close by here" he says and you nod "so, what's the half-famous consulting detective want with me?" You smile and he looks at you "as I've said before I can't read you like I can with the others. You're. Different" you nod
"I guess that makes me in some way special" you reply and he chuckles "don't flatter yourself-" "oh that's right I haven't told you my name. Y/N Y/L/N" you say and he chuckles "don't flatter yourself Y/N"
The two of you talk over coffee, you've told him your likes, dislikes, you made up what you do for a living and told him little bits of your life, just the non-important parts. You could tell already he's falling into your trap.
