    Summary

    John laughed, then laughed again at the sound of his own laughter reverberating around the walls in the empty room.

     

    I love Sherlock, he thought, I’m in love with him. God. What on earth am I going to do?

    _

    When John takes Rosie swimming for the first time, flashbacks of the night he was kidnapped by Moriarty lead him to realise his feelings for Sherlock aren't so platonic after all.
    After fumbling his attempt at telling Sherlock, he ends up on the most uncomfortable drive of his life as the two head to the Scottish Highlands for a case. But perhaps the change of setting is what they need to finally figure it out.

    Post S4 fix-it, set about two years after TFP.

    Summary

    Sherlock is back from the dead but he has no memory of John or their past intimate relationship. Mycroft had convinced the both of them that they should just go their separate ways, as John is now engaged to Mary, and both men had agreed initially. But despite this, both men can't help but continue to be drawn towards each other.

    ~~~

    In his head, John knows it would be best to move on, as Mycroft said. He has Mary now, and Sherlock… John shakes his head. He’s cried enough over that idiotic man. And yet, as John glances over at Mary and at the engagement ring on the hand wrapped around her coffee cup, he feels like this is wrong. It all feels so wrong. Why is he sitting on some bench at some park when Sherlock is out there? Alive and breathing?

    ~~~

    Recommended that you read Part 1 (it's only 2.7k words?) but you do you.

    Summary

    John had stopped mistaking strangers for Sherlock in the second year following his death. In fact, he was ready to move on, with Mary. But then he glimpses someone at a pivotal moment, and it changes his life once more.

    What if the circumstances of Sherlock's return had been less volatile for John? What if John had realized that marrying Mary would be a mistake, the easy path rather than the right one? This is a story of altered circumstances, timing, and a very helpful Mycroft.

    Summary

    John felt his face reddening as he lined up the shot and took a few photos. He shook his head slightly, his heart pounding as he switched apps, brought up the photos, chose the best one, tapped out a quick message and pressed send.

    He didn't receive a reply for five minutes. When the reply did come, he frowned slightly.

    >> Welllll? Im waiting lol

    He checked the chat with Steve and the photo wasn't there. He was sure he'd sent it. He had a sudden sick, sinking feeling in his gut.

    "Oh no," he breathed. "Oh no no no please no."
