Summary
It had been one of the longest chases of his life, spanning three years and thousands of miles, but he had done it. Fifteen. The number swirled around Sherlock’s head. That was how many lives he had taken in the pursuit of his goal. A number so small, so insignificant, yet it represented the entirety of the upper echelon of Moriarty’s criminal organisation and three very complicated years of his life.
Sherlock turned around and looked up. Then the world stopped. Someone stood in the door, someone who looked so familiar and so different at the same time. Sherlock narrowed his eyes critically. Rarely did his hallucinations change. They were normally the same image. John Watson, a phone in his hand, terror in his eyes. The last image.
It wasn't a hallucination.

Summary
Written for this promt on the kinkmeme: "After Mary's death, John moves back into Baker Street, but is still upset at the loss of his wife and child. Eventually, he and Sherlock stumble into a sort of relationship, but it's more physical than anything and they don't talk about it.
They especially don't talk during sex.
If they are going to have sex, Sherlock notices the signs hours beforehand, and he prepares carefully. The lights are off, they're under the covers, he prepares himself using lots of lube so he can make it feel as much like a woman as he can, and he doesn't let himself make any noise so that, if John wishes, he can pretend that he's still with Mary."

John has had feelings for his best friend for a very long time. Feelings he knows will never be returned. When John goes out to drown his sorrows in booze and girls, he finds himself falling into bed with a man for the first time instead. John doesn't expect Sherlock to think much of it, as he had never cared either way about people's sexualities. But when Sherlock finds out, things go downhill quickly, leaving John confused and alone. Can the two friends come back together after such an explosive coming out? If they do, will it be like before? Or might it be so very, very different?

Summary
"Sherlock always knew it was going to end.
In fact, thinking back on it, he’s surprised it even managed to last this long. He was never really good at keeping things after all, and especially not at keeping people- not that he’s ever had the chance to even try with his reputation. And he’s fine with it, really, because what use was sentiment to him, when all it brought was hurt?
So he doesn’t understand why he finds himself in his bed that night, unable to stop the tears streaming down his cheeks or the choked sobs of “John” that endlessly tear themselves from his throat… or his heart from feeling like it was being ripped from his chest.
Because what is he going to do now, without John Watson to guide him?"

His fingers tremble as he dials and he can’t force them steady. Familiar number, even though he hasn’t used it in two years. He isn’t even sure he should be calling it now, but she’d asked. She’d made him promise.

Summary
“Why? Why did you do it? Hmm…?” He takes a deep breath, waits, lets it out again. “Look at me.” There’s no denying him when he takes this tone. “Why did you kill him? Hmm…? For her? After…” A muscle twitches in the corner of John’s eye, and he clamps his jaw down tightly, swallows and sniffs a little before continuing. “For her? After everything she’s done?”
“For you.” Before he can even stop himself. Just like that.
