Molly puts away the baby things quietly in the nursery and takes a moment to watch Rosie sleeping before she goes and grabs her dress which is hanging in the nursery closet and her other small bag. She then goes into the bathroom to get ready.
About 25 minutes later she steps out of the bathroom wearing a dress she'd managed to find time to buy while he was gone, along with sheer black stockings and a pair of black pumps. It's a more subdued style than some of the things she owns but it still has colour and sparkle while still being elegant. Or at least, she hopes. Because Sherlock always looks like he's stepped out of a bloody Armani ad and usually she doesn't care how she looks in comparison, but now that they're essentially a couple, she doesn't want to look too outlandish next to him.
Honestly, she knows he thinks a lot of her wardrobe is a wreck and she's never going to be terribly fashionable or sophisticated, nor does she think she should have to be to please a man, but she does want to please him. And if that means trying a little harder not to look like she lives at a second-hand shop, then she's okay with that.
Her heels click down the hall as she heads to the sitting room to see what Sherlock is up to.
