[3:05pm] For Gods sake...

-Incoming Call-

-Sherlock Holmes-

"John, I need your help."

"Alright, fine. What's wrong?"

"It would seem I have been... invited on a... romantic cinema trip..."

"Wait, wait, wait, wait. You've been asked on a date?"

"It was appear so..."

"..."

"John... John stop laughing."

"..."

"John this is serious. Stop laughing."

"..."

"John!"

"I'm not laughing."

"Yes you are."

"..."

"See! You're doing it again!"

"Sorry! Sorry, I just... Who asked you?"

"Janine."

"Mary's friend? She seems nice."

"Mmm, not my type."

"You have a type?"

"No..."

"You just said you did."

"..."

"What is your type then? Short? Blonde?"

"..."

"..."

"Where are you?"

"Who? Me or your soulmate?"

"Yes, you."

"..."

"Where are you?"

"Wales."

"What, why? I thought you lived in London."

"I do."

"Then why are you in Wales?"

"I'm on holiday."

"Holiday?"

"Yes."

"In Wales?"

"Yes."

"For how long?"

"A week."

"A week?!"

"Yeah. Why is that so surprising?"

"It's just... a long time I suppose..."

"Sherlock, I am coming back!"

"I know..."

"..."

"..."

"What are you going to say to Janine then?"

"I was hoping you'd know."

"Well... Say yes, I guess."

"Oh."

"Oh?"

"Oh."

"Okay..."

"..."

"Let's play a game."

"Games? Really John?"

"It's time to play: What should John have in his sandwiches - Welsh edition."

"John..."

"Our first contestant today is Mr Sherlock Holmes. So, Sherlock, are you excited to be on today's show?"

"Not really."

"Wrong answer!"

"Fine! Okay, yes. Yes I am."

"Good."

"..."

"First question: What kind of bread should John, the handsome, successful, talented, incredible man, have?"

"White..."

"White bread. Is that your final answer?"

"..."

"..."

"Yes..."

"Correct answer. Question two: What should the irresistible man that is John Watson have inside of his white bread?"

"..."

"This is a multiple choice question. The available answers are: Ham, ham or more ham."

"I think I'm going to have to go with ham."

"Brilliant choice."

"John?"

"Yes?"

"One week?"

"One week."

[5:18pm] Yes.

[5:19pm] So you're in the cinema.

[5:19pm] Yep.

[5:19pm] I thought there was some kind of rule against having your phone on in the cinema.

[5:20pm] Rules are made to be broken, John.

[5:21pm] She's trying to eat my popcorn.

[5:21pm] What film are you watching?

[5:22pm] I don't know... Something about faults and stars - Janine's request.
