Sherlock and John have looked after Eve a few times now. And it's gotten a lot easier every time. To the point where, every time, Sherlock finds himself wanting a baby of their own more and more. On the island though, anything is possible. If it saw fit, the island could provide them with a child, possibly leaving a baby in a basket on their doorstep, because that seemed to happen in books, didn't it? It was a bit of a risky thing to pose to whatever powers there were, though. Things went horribly wrong.
But Sherlock was a risk taker, and this was something he really, really wanted. It could go horribly wrong, their baby could be taken away from them or anything. But it is worth it, he thinks-
The wishing well is rather beautiful and ornate. He hasn't actually had a good look at it since it arrived, but as he wanders around it, flipping his coin and debating the wording of his wish he takes it in. It is nice.
Finally he pauses, looking down into it. This is the last moment he has to change his mind. But he isn't going to-
"I wish to have a baby with John. Watson." He adds John's surname in quickly, just to make sure he didn't end up with one of Mitchell's offspring, because that would be awkward. He tosses the coin in and it sinks. It's a bit of an anti-climax and Sherlock still stands, looking into the well for a good few moments.
He should probably actually tell John what he's done. That would be a good idea.
Sherlock turns away to head for the hospital.
