Happiness (Elementary Sherlock x reader)

You were walking around New York. You jut got transferred from Scotland yard to the New York Police Department. Detective Inspector Lestrade didn't like you leaving the Yard, but he understood that you needed to leave after the death of your brother. You started working at the 11th precinct two days ago. Your phone started ringing.
"Detective (y/n)," you answered.
"We have a case," detective bell said on the other side of the conversation.
He gave you the address and hung up the phone. You hailed a cab and gave the address to the driver.
"Thank you," you told the cabby.
You looked at the flat complex. It looked about seven stories high. There were cops all over the building. You crossed the crime scene tape and entered the building.
"(Y/n) the body is this way," detective bell said.
He led you to the fifth floor and you both entered the 16th flat. You saw two women and a tall male. One of the females was an Asian with long black hair. The other female was a small red head. The male was tall and short brown hair. There was something about him, but you couldn't put your finger to it. It was almost like you knew him.
"Hi I'm Joan Watson," the Asian said.
"Hi. So what do we have here," you asked Bell.
"The victim was Carl tanner. 35 years old. 2 45s in his chest. His girlfriend found him this morning ," bell said.
"He died around 10 - 12 last night," Joan said.
The man and the red head left the room and searched the house. You examined the body. You noticed an inflammation around the mouth and neck. You went into the kitchen and looked in the fridge and the cupboards. You then go into the bathroom and look through the his medicine cupboard. You turn around and see the red head standing in the door way.
"Pardon me," you said.
The moves aside and let's you pass. You go back to where the body was and look at bell.
"There are two causes of death," you and the tall male said.
You looked over at the tall man and saw him give you a smile.
"How can there be two causes of deaths," Bell asked giving you and the male a strange look.
"The first cause of death is obvious," the man said.
"But if you look closer at the mouth and throat," you stated.
"It's swollen," Joan said.
"If you look in the kitchen you won't find one thing," you said.
"He had a severe peanut allergy," the male said.
"But there are traces of peanuts on his face and hands," you said.
"So someone gave this man peanuts knowing he is allergic then shot him. Don't you think that's over kill," Bell asked.
"There were two killers," the red head said.
"The first one came and gave him peanuts knowing that it would kill him and left to give theirselves a brilliant alibi," you said.
"And the second came and shot him twice in the chest," Joan said.
"Twice as many killer twice as much paper work," bell said exiting the crime scene.
You followed him and the tall man followed you. You stopped in the hall and turned around.
"May I help you," you asked the man.
"Sherlock Holmes," the tall man said.
"That's how I bloody know you," you said walking down the stairs.
"Wait what," Sherlock asked following.
"You probably don't remember me. You helped detective inspector Lestrade catch the man who killed my brother," you said.
"Yes (brother's/name)," Sherlock said.
You went down 4 flights of stairs as Sherlock followed you.
"I was amazed when I found out you solved my brother's case before the yard did," you said.
"(Y/n) you need a ride to the precinct," bell asked.
"That would be grand," you said walking over to bells car.
You got in and saw Sherlock standing on the side walk. You watched as he got smaller and smaller in the rear view mirror.
"Did you know homes back at Scotland Yard," bell asked walking into the building. "I mean you two were like twins at the crime scene."
"No I joined the Yard right when he left," you told Bell.
"Detective the girlfriend is in the interview room," an officer said.
Sherlock walked up to bell and just stood there. Joan and the red head were sitting in the chairs behind him.
"Do you want to join us in the interview," bell asked.
"I would be delighted to," Sherlock said.
Bell, Joan, Sherlock, and you went into the interview room while the red head and captain Gregson went into the room to watch the interview.
"Ms. Withmore I'm sorry for your lose," you told the crying girl across the table from you.
"Elise. Thank you," she said crying.
"When was the last time you saw mr. Tanner," bell asked.
"Last night at 7 to 9 we had dinner together," Elise said.
"Ca you give us the name of the restaurant," you asked.
Elise grabbed the notepad bell offered her and wrote down the name of the restaurant.
"Did you know he had a severe peanut allergy," Sherlock asked.
"Yea, he told me on our first date. I was making him dinner," she cried.
"Where were you at 10," you asked.
"I was home alone why," she asked you.
"Is there anyone who can verify that," bell asked.
"You think I killed Carl. I loved him. What you are insinuating is very rude. I wish to no longer talk to you," Elise said walking out of the interview room.
Sherlock left the room and Joan followed him.
"Let's go notify his next of Kin," bell said opening the door for you.
You both left the precinct and drive to mr. Tanner's sister's house
~Carl's sister's house~
You knocked on the door and a women with long blonde hair opened the door.
"Mrs. Sparello," you asked.
"Yes can I help you," the women asked.
"We are with the NYPD. May we come in," bell asked.
Sparello opened the door and gestures us into the living room.
"Please have a seat. Would you like something to drink," sparello asked.
"No thank you," you said.
"Mrs. Sparello please have a seat," bell said.
She sat down across from you and leaned forward.
"I'm sorry to tell you this but your brother was found dead this morning," you said.
"Oh my god," she cried.
"I'm sorry for your loss," bell said.
The front door opened and a man walked in.
"Mary," the man called.
He saw you two and walked into the living room. He turned and saw his wife crying.
"May I ask what you two are doing here," the man said.
"Johnny, Carl is dead," Sparello cried.
Johnny comforted his wife and looked back at you.
"Is there anything we can do," Johnny asked.
"When did you last see Mr. Tanner," bell asked.
"Tuesday. Mary insists on having family dinner every week," Johnny said.
"Did he seem different at all. Even the slightest thing will help," you said.
"No. Well he did always look over his shoulder. Like he was running from someone," he said.
"Did he say who," you asked.
"No but he did say that he has been in an argument with a coworker," Mary said.
"Where does he work," bell asked.
"He works at the New York ledger," Mary said.
~back at the precinct~
"He is an investigative journalist. His stories most of them have made the front page," you said looking through try the ledgers from the past two months.
"Go home. It's late," bell said.
You looked at the clock and saw it was 7:00 pm.
"You win," you said grabbing your coat and your bag.
"You need a ride," bell asked.
"No it's fine. I could use the fresh air," you said.
You left the precinct and walked home. You reached your flat and unlocked your door. You made yourself a quick dinner and took a quick shower. You dried yourself off and went to bed.
~2:00am~
You woke up to someone phoning you.
"Hello," you said half awake.
"Detective (y/n). I need your help," Sherlock said.
"Are you daft. It's 2 in the morning," you said.
"Meet me at the victims home," Sherlock said hanging up the phone.
"Bloody hell," you said out loud.
You got up and changed. You left your flat. You walked to Carl tanner's flat and saw Sherlock.
"What is bloody wrong with you," you asked him.
"I solved the case," Sherlock said.
"Couldn't you wait til a descent time to tell me," you asked him.
"No," Sherlock said.
"What ever what are we even doing here," you asked.
"This is your first case with me so I thought you would want evidence," Sherlock said.
"Okay," you said.
"You examined the bathroom am I correct," Sherlock asked.
"Yes," you said.
"what did you notice."
"I'm tired and I have a gun. Just tell me," you stated.
"Carl tanner was having an affair," Sherlock said.
"So his girlfriend  was one of the killers. That great. But she will just a be charged with attempted murder. I really think that the NYPD want the person who actually killed him," you said.
"I went to Carl's work and found out what he was working on. He was investigating a company called maxwell & maxwell," Sherlock said.
"That's where Johnny withmore works," you stated.
"Exactly," Sherlock said.
"Was there a reason this couldn't wait til everyone was awake," you asked.
Sherlock ignored your question and left the flat.
"Sherlock Holmes," you called.
He walked all the way back to his flat. You followed him into his flat.
"What is you problem with me," you asked him.
"I can't read you," he said.
"What," you asked.
"I can tell everything about someone when I look at them but I can't when I'm around you," Sherlock said.
"Is that why you got me out of my nice warm bed. To try and read me," you asked.
"No," he said.
"Then why," you asked.
Sherlock looked at you and pressed his lips against yours. You were shocked at first then moved with his lips. You two made your way to the guest bedroom by the kitchen. You two undressed each other and fell into the bed.
~morning~
You woke up and saw you were in a bed naked with Sherlock. You got up and got dressed. Sherlock woke up and also got dressed . You exited the room and hear someone.
"How do you take your coffee," Joan asked.
"Cream, two sugar," you said.
Joan turned around and saw you.
"Morning Joan," you said grabbing the coffee cup Joan offered you.
"Um," the red hair said.
"Great now that kitty is up we can go tell bell who the killers are," Sherlock said grabbing his coat and leaving the brownstone.
You grabbed your coat and hailed a cab to the precinct. You reached the precinct before Sherlock and went to your desk.
"Hey do you know why Sherlock called a meeting," bell asked.
"Yea. He said he solved the case," you said.
"He is not human," bell said laughing.
"Good morning bell," Sherlock said.
"No who killed the victim," bell asked.
"At first I thought it was the girlfriend but after having sexual intercourse with detective (y/n) I realized that I was wrong and it was the mistress and the other killer was the brother in law Johnny," Sherlock said.
"Wait you two," bell started. "Nevermind that what's the motive."
"The mistress did not want Carl to leave her so she slipped some peanut oil in his food. And Carl was investigating the company maxwell & maxwell. Johnny was scared that Carl would find out about his skimming the company's money so her killed Carl," Sherlock said.
Johnny and Carl's mistress Blanca Williams walked into the precinct. You and bell walked up to them and cuffed them.
"What is this all about," Johnny called.
"Don't touch me," Blanca said.
"You two are under arrest. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law. You have the a
Right to an attorney. If you can not afford one, one will be provide for you. Do you understand these rights," bell and you said.
You two put them in the interrogation room and interrogated them. After five minutes the confessed to the killing. You both walked out and watched as two officers took them into lock up.
"So you and Sherlock," bell said.
"Shut up bell," you said walking to the vending machine.
"You did well this case," Sherlock said behind you.
"I know," you said laughing. "Have you read me yet."
"No and I have seen every inch of your body," Sherlock said causing you to blush.
Sherlock looked you in the eyes and smiled. Like an actual smile.
"Why are you looking at me like that," you asked,
"Would you like to go eat dinner with me," Sherlock asked.
"Like a date," you asked.
"Yes," Sherlock said.
He stepped closer to you and put your face in his hands. His face was so close to yours you could smell the tea he had this morning. He pressed his lips against your and you moved along with his.
"Um kitty wants so see you," Joan said.
Sherlock left and Joan and I were standing in the hall way.
"You make him happy," Joan said. "I have never seen him this happy."
"Really," you asked.
"Yea, from what I know about him. He hasn't been happy in a long time," Joan said.
