Work Text:
Sherlock, John, Molly and Greg piled out of the taxi and into the Karaoke club. They had spent the day together, enjoying the summer weather, and wanted to end their evening on a high.
Already, there were people signing up for the karaoke. “Let’s sing something as a group!” Greg suggested.
“Yes, what do you think, Sherlock?” Molly asked.
“No thank you. I don’t do singing and I don’t do groups,’ Sherlock replied.
“Please, Sherlock, at least do a solo,” John begged.
“Fine.” Sherlock signed up.
An hour, and several rounds of drinks, later, they were called onto the stage. The backing music of ‘Happy’ started playing. It was the only summer song John could think of after 3 pints of beer. Sherlock laughed as he watched the performance. Greg didn’t know the words and just made noises, Molly couldn’t keep the tune and John danced to the music.
Afterwards, Sherlock took the stage. Instrumental music started playing and he began to sing. John didn’t recognise the song but Molly told him, “Bring Him Home. It’s from Les Misérables.”
Sherlock’s singing was beautiful. The audience clapped and cheered when he finished but he sat down, like it was nothing.
“You’re great at singing, Sherlock,” Molly said.
“Stunning, mate,” Greg added.
“Three cheers for Sherlock,” John shouted.
They cheered and Sherlock blushed.
