  Summary

  " You keep saving me you know? Over and over again, even without being here." John says touching the top of the headstone.
  He'd wait. It didn't matter why. It didn't matter if he's deluded.
  If patience is what his best friend demanded of him, John would give it.

  Or John finds out Sherlock Holmes is alive half a year after the incident and decides seeing him again would be worth the wait.

  Sherlock isn't a coward in this one and actually does the morally right thing by discretely telling John the truth
