*Holmes frowned in thought.*
"I fear I must take back my previous advice."
*He met her eyes.*
"And run. I cannot fend off Dracula and Moriarty; and should they learn of each other and band against us, well... It does not bear thinking on. There is no doubt they are capable of following, but perhaps it will buy us time. Will you come?"

*Holmes could not quell the brief, rather inappropriate smile that flashed across his face. He was relieved; relieved that she would not part from him, and that they had not yet addressed that night.
So he hadn't had to tell her how she haunted his dreams and clouded his thoughts.*
"Very well, then," *he said briskly.* "How long do you need to pack?"

"I can be ready by tonight."
*It would hurt to leave her friends. But she had done it before, and no doubt they had as well.*

*Holmes cupped Irene's face in a gesture he could remember ever having made before, and which he'd have sworn up and down--if that had been his style--that he never would.*
"Very well. I think it's best."

*Unable to stop herself, she kissed him softly*
"Meet me in the foyer at midnight."
*She paused*
"No- that's when he comes out. Better make it earlier."

*Holmes stiffened in her arms, then relaxed slightly to return her kiss. When they broke, he nodded.*
"Ten. I'll be waiting."
*He moved to the door then took another look back.*
"Be careful," *was all he said.*
