The Other Watson: - Of Bombshells and Introductions

Tabitha Watson stood in front of 221b Baker Street, trying to work up the nerve to knock on the door. "Come on Tab's, just knock on the door. It's Uncle John, he's not going to turn you away." Just as she finally works up the courage to knock on the door, it flies open; she just manages to avoid being barrelled over by a tall curly haired brunette man, with the most striking eyes that she has ever seen who is quickly followed by the man that she is actually here to see Dr John Watson.

"Uncle John" states Tabitha, stopping Dr John Watson in his tracks, "Tabitha" replies John embracing Tabitha who he has not seen since his return to London, their reunion is interrupted by a throat being cleared, "Oh, Tabitha let me introduce you to my friend and colleague Sherlock Holmes" "Hi I'm Tabitha Watson, it's a pleasure to meet you Mr Holmes" says Tabitha extending her hand to Sherlock, "Please call me Sherlock" states Sherlock as he shakes Tabitha's hand. "Ok, Sherlock it is." "John we should be going, Tabitha please make yourself at home" states Sherlock as he gives Tabitha a key to the flat. "Thanks" states Tabitha as she watches her Uncle and Sherlock get into a black cab "Love you Tab's" states John as the taxi pulls away.

John and Sherlock arrive back at the flat 2 hrs later; they find Tabitha reclining on the couch reading one of Sherlock's many books. Sherlock takes a minute to observe Tabitha, she is short about 5ft, she has curly shoulder length dirty blonde hair, and her eyes are warm a mix of blue and green. She is on the heavier side but is not fat, to his surprise Sherlock finds her very attractive.

"So Tab's, I don't want to sound ungrateful for the visit" "but what am I doing here" finishes Tabitha. "Isn't it obvious John, she's pregnant, I would say about 3 months" states Sherlock sitting down in the armchair across from the couch, "Tab's is he right" asks a very shocked John, unable to voice a response Tabitha just nod's. "How did you know" asks Tabitha finally finding her voice "the way your hand kept going to your stomach, and you have a slight bump that I noticed when we came in, you don't seem very angry that I blurted out your secret" "actually I'm glad, I don't think I could have gotten the word's out. So Uncle John I know you're probably disappointed in me but I really need your help, Mum's seriously fallen off the wagon since Clara left, she doesn't want anything to do with me, I just need somewhere to stay for a few nights, then I will be out of your hair". "Tab's I could never be disappointed in you, yes it's not ideal that your only 20, but that's older than your Mum was when she had you. As for your accommodation you will move in here with me and Sherlock until the baby is born. Won't she Sherlock" states John looking at Sherlock who surprisingly gives no objection to Tabitha moving in "Tabitha you can stay as long as you need to, I do have one question though, what about the baby's father", "he doesn't want anything to do with the baby, he wanted me to get an abortion, but I just couldn't do it" says Tabitha crossing her arms over her stomach protectively. "I personally think you're very brave" states Sherlock with sincerity in his voice that surprises John, "thanks Sherlock." States Tabitha covering her mouth with her hand as she yawns "let's get you settled in, we will talk more tomorrow after you have had a goodnights sleep" states John smiling at Tabitha "thanks Uncle John, and you Sherlock" says Tabitha kissing John and Sherlock on the cheek "I don't know what I would have done if you had turned me away" says Tabitha not noticing the fact that she has made Sherlock blush, a fact that which Sherlock would deny, Sherlock Holmes does not blush.
