An Observation

Sherlock glanced up from his newspaper. It wasn't the first time he has seen John appear vexed over something. In fact, that would be an everyday occurrence, considering how Sherlock always bring him to the brink of impatience. This is normal - or putting into consideration his current state - this was.

Somewhere in the middle of a hot summer July, John realises a part of himself that he finds rather unsavoury, and decides that something had to be done of it. John, as much as he is an emotional man, bottles up incredibly much - especially when it is something he believes that he cannot share.

He attempts to hide those little hints of unwelcome and definitely unconfirmed emotions - keeping in mind that when it comes to the ingenious consulting detective, every and any feelings displayed in the slightest would spell itself out to Sherlock visibly and immediately. John had managed to keep Sherlock from noticing, having learnt a thing or two about the human body language from Sherlock himself and taking advantage of Sherlock's ignorance.

But of course, his walls do not last against the famous eccentric detective. Flaws are inevitable for one whom is inexperienced when against an all powerful mastermind.

Sherlock finally notices that something is off.

Though for the moment, Sherlock decided to observe John's situation. His interest is piqued upon finding out that his blogger has something to hide, and is impressed that he's hidden whatever he is hiding for quite some time.

"I wonder, my little blogger - what have you to hide from me ... ?"
