Title: Locked Room Mystery
Fandom: Sherlock Holmes (ACD)
Rating: PG
Length: 100
Author notes: This is a drabble: 100 words exactly.
Summary: There is a body behind a door locked from the inside.

Holmes cautiously approached the room and tried the handle. Locked from the inside. He frowned to himself. Lestrade was on his way but there should be time… Using his lockpicks, he quickly opened the door.

The body was sprawled over the bed, and Holmes observed its relaxed pose and peaceful expression. He came closer, and began poking and prodding at the torso, muttering away about the case.

“Dear God!” The body sat up abruptly.

Holmes smiled. “Ah, you’re awake, Watson. Suspected murder—Lestrade’s meeting us here.”

Watson just stared at him. “For God’s sake, Holmes. Why don’t you ever knock?”

Ah yes, the locked door mystery, where the true mystery is why Watson hadn't bolted the door and pushed some heavy furniture against it, if he wanted to keep Holmes out.

Of course - the fault absolutely lies with Watson ^__^

(You know, in its first incarnation, when it was a Sherlock 221B, I was going to finish with "I'm going to fit a bolt." :P)
