John smiled at Sherlock as they walked back into Baker Street. It had taken some convincing for Sherlock to just go on a date, but well worth it. His husband had hardly seen the point; after all they were together every day anyway. But this was dinner and not a case and John was secretly hoping Mrs. Hudson wouldn\u2019t mind watching Hamish for a little bit longer. He leaned up and kissed Sherlock as he pushed open the door.<\/p>\n

\u201cPappa! Daddy!\u201d John abruptly broke the kiss as Hamish crashed into them. John swung his head around and saw the incongruous sight of Mycroft sitting on the floor in front of the couch laughing.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat the hell are you doing here?\u201d John turned as Hamish tried to climb him. He picked up his son and glared at the elder Holmes.<\/p>\n

Mycroft smiled. John held Hamish a little closer. \u201cCan\u2019t I come see my nephew?\u201d Hamish squirmed down and went for the umbrella.<\/p>\n

Sherlock put a hand on John\u2019s shoulder. \u201cYou waited until we were gone.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sighing, Mycroft watched Hamish play with his umbrella. The boy was four and curious. \u201cI have not seen much of him.\u201d<\/p>\n

John took a breath. \u201cWe\u2019re not looking to keep you from him.\u201d He moved to go make tea. \u201cYou\u2019re welcome to babysit next time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hamish got the umbrella open and crawled under it, peeking out at the adults. Sherlock sat down next to his big brother. \u201cYou are good with children.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI do believe John had other plans for when you got home. I could take Hamish out.\u201d<\/p>\n

A small smile crossed Sherlock\u2019s face. \u201cI believe Hamish would enjoy spending time with his Uncle.\u201d<\/p>\n

John reappeared with tea and handed one to Mycroft. Hamish came out from under the umbrella, something in his fist. \u201cUncle?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh, let me have that Hamish.\u201d Mycroft quickly pried it from his hand before John could see what it was. \u201cProbably you shouldn\u2019t play with that umbrella.\u201d He tugged it closed and put it behind himself.<\/p>\n

John shook his head. Better not to ask.<\/p>\n

\u201cMycroft is going to take Hamish for the night,\u201d said Sherlock.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh?\u201d John raised an eyebrow.<\/p>\n

\u201cYay!\u201d Hamish climbed into his Uncle\u2019s lap.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, can\u2019t argue with that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mycroft stood up, taking the umbrella in one hand and Hamish\u2019s hand in the other. John put a coat on his son. \u201cYou be good for Uncle Mycroft.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes Papa.\u201d<\/p>\n

They watched as Mycroft walked him out. John looped an arm around Sherlock\u2019s waist. \u201cI suppose he\u2019ll be fine. Come on to bed.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
