“You need John,” he said as kindly as he could.
“But he’s married. Not here. On his honeymoon,” Sherlock wrinkled his nose in disgust.
“I’m not even going to try and replace him.” Greg watched his eyes as he fidgeted nervously.
“You couldn’t.” Sherlock didn’t mean to wound, but Greg’s heart still dipped. “Just tonight, please.”
