Summary
They stood face to face in the middle of a clearing. The dim light of the moon barely allowed Sherlock to see the glassy terror in John’s eyes and the sweat that glistened off his forehead. His nose was bleeding again, blood dripping in a slow stream from his right nostril.
They were both gasping for air, John’s eyes locked on Sherlock’s. There was no recognition there, just wild animal fear.
Time stood still for an eternal few seconds, and Sherlock took a shaky breath. “John—”
Spell broken, John spun and bolted back into the woods.
Still heaving for air, Sherlock took off after him.

Summary
“I should probably go back to bed,” John whispered softly, and Sherlock felt a pang of regret at the words.
“Don’t be absurd, John,” he said instead, minutely tightening his hold around John’s shoulders and keeping him firmly in place. “You’ll sleep better here anyway.”
John huffed a pathetic excuse for a laugh against his chest and Sherlock felt his own heart clench at the sound. John shuffled a little in a half-hearted attempt to break away, but Sherlock tugged him back into place, laying a firm arm across his shoulder blades and running his thumb along the nape of his neck. He felt John shiver at the movement and smiled quietly into the darkness.
“Stay, John. Please.” Sherlock took the chance and brushed his lips softly along John’s forehead. He felt John’s shoulders tense briefly, and clutched him tighter. “I want you to stay.”

Summary
Sherlock never wanted John to know about the scars from being tortured in Serbia. He tried to hide them as best he could, knowing it would only hurt worse if his boyfriend found out the truth.
But then, he forgot to close the door.

John is here now, yes, yes he is. He and Rosie are back home in 221B with Sherlock, safe where they belong... but why is there still a hole deep inside Sherlock, wide and gaping and consuming? Does John feel it too? And what will it take to fill it?
