[ He nods. ] I'll stay around here. [ Of course he will. Maybe Mycroft's over protectiveness had rubbed off on him? At any rate he'll be keeping his eyes on the blokes who will be coming and going. ]

[mmorstan]

[She squeezes his arm before sending him on his way. 'Business' is slow and she gets away with mostly kisses on the cheek. A few are sneaky, but she manages to keep them in line, if only for the sake of raising money. Out of the corner of her eye, she spots John, and a secret smile appears on her face.]

[hamishforaname]

[ When she sends him on his way he doesn't go far, and he makes quick rounds on the booth every three minutes. He only goes down to one end to the other just in case something happens. Eventually he stops and just stands across from the booth and eyes the bigger blocks coming up. ]

[mmorstan]

[The man is overly complimentary, which unsettles Mary somewhat, but she tries to be friendly, while establishing some sort of boundaries. She manages a quick kiss on his cheek after he makes a donation.]

[hamishforaname]

[ John watches closely and even takes a few steps forward in case the man tried anything. ]

[mmorstan]

[Her number. Of course he wants her number.

And despite Mary's modest protests, he doesn't seem to be taking no for an answer.]

[hamishforaname]

[ John figures out what's going on. He steps over closely and looking at the man. ] She doesn't want your number, mate. Let someone else come up.

[mmorstan]

[For a moment, Mary fears this man will do something drastic, but she supposes that he thinks she isn't worth the trouble. As he walks away, she breathes a sigh of relief and gives John a few kisses on the cheek. ]

My hero.

[hamishforaname]

[ John watches the man go and then eyes the other sin line so that they know not to mess with Mary or her scary, ex-Army sort-of-boyfriend will not allow it. ]

Of course. You're okay? [ He turns concerned eyes on her. ]

[mmorstan]

[She beams with pride, honestly finding that authoritative side to be quie attractive. Mary nods, giving his hand a gentle and reassuring squeeze.]

Just fine. I will join you in a few minutes. Thank you.

[hamishforaname]

[ He smiles and gives her another kiss. ]

Alright. I'll be just over here, Mary...

[mmorstan]

[She finishes off the last round before the next lady takes helm of the booth. Quickly retrieving her things, she rushes to find John, wrapping her arms around him from behind.]

You have me for the rest of the night.

[hamishforaname]

Good. [ He puts his arm around her shoulders in an almost protective grip. ] Dinner?

[mmorstan]

Dinner sounds just marvelous. [She leans into him as they start down the road.]

[hamishforaname]

Where would you like to go?
