Summary
Green.
The word green was used to convey a great many things. Illness. Envy. Inexperience.
Standing there amidst Janine's chattering bridesmaids, watching Sherlock furrow his brow and study fabric swatches, watching him smile and simper and flirt, John thought it a remarkably apt colour choice. Because he felt quite sick to his stomach, he feared the source of said sickness might very well be jealousy, and he had absolutely no idea at all what to do about it.
Or: Sherlock needs to fake a relationship for a case. He doesn't ask John.

Summary
It’s possibly the desperation that’s seeped into his voice despite his best intentions, or perhaps it’s just a mother’s intuition, but she knows that whatever he’s calling about is Serious, hangover be damned. “What’s happened?” she asks, tone soft and as comforting as a hot cup of tea on a cold winter’s night.
“Mummy,” he begins, voice catching. “I think John may be moving out.”- Language:

Summary
After getting injured on a case, Sherlock wakes with no memory of the last ten years of his life. He's left in the care of one John Watson - his flatmate, apparently - and is forced to navigate the life of a stranger, discovering things about his current self that leave him feeling off-kilter and very much alone. Luckily, John is there to see him through it.

Summary
Now, as Rosie sat curled up against Sherlock’s side, John watched and wondered exactly how he had ended up here. Domesticity had never suited him before, not at any point in his life. His disastrous marriage had been proof of that. But somehow, here in the warmth and safety of 221B Baker Street, here with Sherlock Holmes reading medical jargon to his daughter, Sherlock’s bony feet nudging against his leg, John couldn’t imagine anyplace that would make him happier.

Summary
It’s not the first time they shared a room, or even a bed, but this is something else entirely. John can’t seem to be able to look away from the rather impressive shower, glass doors, panoramic view, and right there. Not even a few inches apart from the large double bed.

Most people’s primary impression of John Watson was of a smallish, harmless alpha with bad taste in jumpers. It took a surprising amount of work to keep it that way.

Take My Breath Away by Quesarasara for Cheytea7

Summary
Sherlock opens his eyes and looks at his friend—his best friend—and slowly tips his chin down until his forehead rests softly against John’s. They stay that way for a long moment, lips just a whisper apart, warm puffs of air mingling as each of them struggles to breathe.
It’s no wonder they ended up here, really, locked in this breathless moment balanced on the cusp of something new.
They’ve spent years taking each other’s breath away…

Sherlock and John Come Out (More Or Less By Accident) by wendymarlowe
Fandoms: Sherlock (TV)
01 Nov 2014
Tags
Summary
John overhears Mycroft belittling Sherlock's being gay as "just a phase" and pointing out how much he's disappointing Mummy. It's news to John, but being straight doesn't mean he can't be a friend - John snogs Sherlock in front of his brother, apologizes for insisting they stay in the closet, and pointedly tells Mycroft to run along.
Only problem is, John's not gay, and Sherlock's got no experience with any of this. For once, the consulting detective is completely out of his depth and has to rely on John for guidance.
(Part of my "John and Sherlock's Kinky First Times" series of shorts, all revolving around the same basic theme of "John and Sherlock get sexy for the first time and also discover some kinky stuff about each other.")
