“Mrs. Hudson!”

“What..?” She opened her eyes to find her maid at her bedside.

“There’s creaking upstairs!” whispered Bessie urgently. “And Mr. Holmes and the Doctor are still away, aren’t they?”

“Heavens—!”

Mrs. Hudson sat up and listened, her body tense.

Then she sighed.

“Don’t worry, dear. There’s nobody upstairs. It’s just the house relaxing.”

She looked up at the ceiling and addressed the upper apartments.

“Better make the most of it! They’ll be back tomorrow.”

There was a sudden shriek in the pipes.

Bessie giggled, and Mrs. Hudson rolled her eyes.

“It has to be said, my thoughts exactly.”

Hee hee. Even the house knows. "He's not going to shoot holes in me again, is he?"

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

That's a very good point ^^" The house is quite right to not be looking forward to Holmes coming back ^_^

Relaxation means so many things. I never knew houses could relax.

Well, you know - that general contracting and expanding that houses do... ^__^
