December 3: “Perfect weather.” (from KnightFury)
---
A/N: Watson’s POV.

It was a beautiful day, I thought, as I gazed out my bedroom window that morning. A light breeze, clear skies, mildly cool temperatures—ah!
“It’s a beautiful day outside,” I commented as I entered the sitting room, where Holmes was already seated at the table having breakfast.
“Mm,” he grunted in reply.
“Would you care for a stroll after breakfast?” I inquired as I seated myself across from him. “Through the park, perhaps?”
Holmes shrugged. “I am not sure I am in the mood…”
“It is rarely so nice outside,” I added.
“Well, perhaps, but…”
“It’s the perfect weather for a stroll.” I was wheedling now, and we both knew it.
“I, well, I…”
“And I suppose I could take a walk by myself, but I would much rather go with a friend.”
“Er…”
“Hm, perhaps today is Lestrade’s day off, I could always see if—”
“Fine!” Holmes exclaimed. “Fine, I shall take a walk with you!”
I grinned widely. “Thank you so much, old fellow!”
