Chapter Twenty - A Deal With The Devil

Sorry Boys! I'm SOOooOO Changeable! It is a weakness with me, but to be fair to myself it is my only weakness. You can't be allowed to continue! You just can't." Jim says madly.

"I would try to convince you." He says looking over at me through the camera again.

"But everything I have to say has already crossed your mind."

"He took out his ear bud!!!" Sebby exclaims.

"Probably my answer has crossed yours." Sherlock replies pointing the gun at Jim. They stare at each other as Sherlock points the gun at the bomb. Jim tilts his head.

"Give me your phone now!" I yell at Sebastian. He hands me his phone as I frantically fumble along the buttons.....

Suddenly on the screen Moriarty's phone starts to ring. Moriarty stands there awkwardly as 'Staying Alive' Starts playing. Sherlock and John look around the room in confusion.

Jim sighs "Do you mind if I get that?"

"Oh no please, you've got the rest of your life." Sherlock sasses.

"Hello?" Jim says.

"Hello is this Jim Moriarty? I ask shakily.

"Yes of course it is what do you want?" Jim mouths 'sorry' to Sherlock. 'It's fine' Sherlock mouths back.

"I want you to stop this. I'll be your date. I'll even throw in a diamond to sweeten the deal." I say quickly.

"SAY THAT AGAIN!" He yells. I jump and almost lose my grip on the phone. "Say that again and know that if you're lying to me, I will fond you and I will skin you."

"I'll be your date." I manage to squeak out.

"Wait." He barks at me.

Jim walks closer to Sherlock and in turn the bomb. Sherlock grips the gun tensely.

"Sorry, wrong day to die." He says slowly.

"Oh? Did you get a better offer?" Sherlock replies.

"You'll be hearing from me Sherlock." He says ignoring Sherlock's question.

"So If you have what you say you have I will make you rich, If you don't I'll make you into Shoes." He snaps his fingers and the snipers take their sights off of Sherlock and John.

I sigh, as i hear the door slam behind him.

"I'll pick you up at nine on Saturday, see you then Angel." Jim says before hanging up on me.

"What happened there?" John asks.

"Someone changed his mind. The question is...Who?" Sherlock says thoughtfully.

Moran leans forward and shuts off the recording.

"What the hell did I just do?" I ask.

"You made a deal with the devil." Sebastian replies with a smile.

"What the heck is going on? Miss Keyland?" Juni asks.

"Oh sorry. Juniper this is Sebastian Moran, Right hand man to Richard Brooke. AKA Jim Moriarty, London crime lord." I say hastily.

"Nice to meet you Juniper was it?" Sebastian says shaking her hand.

"Yeah." She clips.

"Well Juniper lets get you and Keyland home." Sebastian smiles.

"Sounds good to me." I respond.

Moran leads us out of the library and out a back door to a vehicle.

"Boss said you could know where one of his houses are, that way if you need anything you know where to reach him." Sebastian explains.

"Oh thanks I guess." I say awkwardly.

I was in such a state of shock that the car ride seemed like it took only minutes. It was in fact an hour by Juniper's estimate. Anyways we got home and had entered the house when Ren ran up to us.

"Where were you what happened?" He asked worriedly.

Juniper opens her mouth to speak but I cut her off.

"Well since Christmas is coming soon Juni and I were scouting out gifts! I'm so sorry we forgot our phones at home..." I say awkwardly.

"Oh alright then..." He says suspiciously.

"Now if you don't mind we need to talk secretly about some other things so we will be in my room." I smile. Ren shakes his head.

"Women..." He mumbles under his breath.

I grab Juni's arm and drag her to my room. She closes the door as i flop down on the bed.

"Why did you lie to him?" She asks.

"Moriarty is more dangerous then you know." I say.

"Uh he just attacked two innocent men to score a date with you. I don't think I'm underestimating him any more." Juniper sasses.

"We don't want to get anyone else involved if we don't have to. I can't handle the responsibility of putting more of my friends in danger." I admit softly.

"I see. But that man, with the dark curly hair is more than just a friend to you right?" She presses.

"Who Sherlock?! We went to university together. We were roommates, nothing more." I say firmly.

"It that why you have his ring around your neck?" She asks grabbing the necklace and pulling till she can see the ring. I snatch the ring back out of her grasp and look at it.

"The only reason he proposed was to keep me from leaving London. He doesn't love me." I say sadly.

"Well I think Moriarty would disagree. Because one thing is for sure, You love him. Or he would be dead right now." She says quickly leaving the room.

I lie on my back on my bed and stare at the ceiling... Do I???
