073. Passive

Summary:

He can’t ruin his relationship with molly, like all his previous pathetic attempts at romance, if there is no relationship to ruin to begin with….at least, that’s his logic. He doesn’t want to break her heart, so he simply won’t take it.

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

There’s nothing wrong with loving her- as long as he doesn’t act on it.

its what they say in museums, that people can admire without interacting, look but no touch,

and in this way, nothing has to break or tear.

sherlock has long stopped denying he loves her, but the reasons to deny it were still there,

love made people irrational, unreasonable, easy to manipulate- often times by the object of love, as Miss Alder had demonstrated.

Now wiser, he would be a passive lover, the thoughts he has about molly would stay just that, his feelings would remain unshared.

Notes:

it is to be noted, that the drabble topics are from my own choice, not a particular challenge or collection, so i dont know how many i will make as i am making them up as i go. a random word and a hundred words, i want to make a hundred drabbles. i am open to requests, however, you can only give me a word and a couple, not the whole plot. for e.g ( escape, harryxhermione, harry potter series). not ( harry and hermione escape to rome. or harry and hermione escape a stuffy ministry party) for more clarification, comment and ask below.
