Laura's P.O.V:

I was sitting on the couch listening to Sherlock play violin. Sabina was with a friend and John was at work, while I was at home hopelessly sick.

"How do you do this all day?" I asked.

"I get bored." He replied casually.

"Well, I should be doing something! I should be in my office working on patients!" I exclaimed.

"It's not my fault you went out in the rain." He replied as he kept chainsaw sounds coming out of his violin. I... mean he was strumming...

I sat back down and opened my laptop to John's blog, and opened Sherlock's website on another tab.

"D'you normally do this?" I asked as I read John's blog.

"Pardon?"

"Solve cases, get taken hostage and get put on the verge of death!" I said flopping over in John's chair.

"On our good days." Sherlock replied, plucking another string.

"I'm making tea, want some?" I asked shutting the laptop.

"None for me." He replied and launched into a very strong Mozart piece.

I opened the cupboard and was greeted by about 50 canned eyeballs.

"DAMNIT!" I screamed as the jar splintered to pieces on the ground, spilling its contents everywear.

"FOR FUCK'S SAKE!!!!" I yelled hopping from foot to foot.

"WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN HERE?" I shrieked.

"Everything alright?" Sherlock asked.

"If the definition of alright is a heart attack, then yes!" I yelled.

"Sarcasm isn't appreciated." Sherlock said dully back.

After about a full two hours, I heard a loud bang followed by another and raced in from where I was snooping around in John's room. I found a bored Sherlock in nothing but a house coat shooting the wall.

"What are you bloody doing?" I shouted above the noise.

"I'm bored." He replied.

"At least put some clothes on!" I yelled.

"Why should I?" Sherlock said back.

Oh boy. He was in the worst stage of boredom again.

"C'mon. Put your clothes on and we'll go out."

"You like John, don't you?" Sherlock stated plainly, in more of an statement than a question.

"Umm... Yeah, I do" I said.

"You should tell him." Sherlock said calmly.

"WHAT!!?"

"Give it a try. Try this..."

Sabina's P.O.V:

I said bye to Zoe and left the town square to go back home.

"I'm... back?"

I walked through the door.

"Anyone home?..." I paused and looked up the stairs.

"Guess not." I mumbled.

I walked in to Sherlock's part of the flat and jumped back seeing John in his chair.

"Productive day?" he asked not looking up from the paper.

"Where are they?" I said, suddenly jealous of Laura being with Sherlock.
