Hi Guys I haven't written anything in ages but the new BBC Sherlock series inspired me to write this all Sherlock characters belong to BBC please be nice I wrote, edited and published this in like an hour at 4AM any constructive criticism welcome and I hope you like
Greg Lestrade had no idea what he was doing at the hospital by all rights he should be at Scotland yard seeing to one of the million tasks he had to complete before he went home not to mention finding the criminal mastermind or consulting criminal as John Watson had informed him this Moriarty bloke liked to be called Greg didn't care what title he wanted to give himself he just wanted him as far away from his Sherlock as he could manage the bottom of a mine shaft or a prison cell was fine with Lestrade Damnit there he went again thinking of Sherlock as his as much as he'd like it to be true it wasn't Sherlock didn't know he existed except to as a minor annoyance yet here Greg was sitting at the detectives bedside waiting for him to regain consciousness after being knocked out in the explosion. Just then Sherlock's eyes opened and he looked over at Lestrade. "Greg what are you doing here?" Greg was so relieved Sherlock was awake he didn't even notice Sherlock had used his first name nor did he think about what he said "I was worried wanted to make sure you were ok" Sherlock scoffed "please Lestrade I have a bump on the head and a few broken ribs I'm not suddenly stupid no one could care less if I'm ok or not maybe Mycroft but only because Mummy would kill him if something happened to me "Sherlock said in a very self depreciating manner. Greg couldn't believe what he was hearing was the man really that blind? That really pissed Greg off the detective was just going to have to shut up and listen now. "now Sherlock that's just not true your brother is out pacing the halls terrorizing all the nurses making sure you get the very best of care they had to threaten to tie John down to get him to stay in his bed and not come and sit with you Mrs Hudson has been here most of the time she just left to check on John again not to mention the nonstop trail of well wishers from prior cases you've worked hell even Donovan's been calling to check on you there are plenty of people worried about you Sherlock you just don't know it" Sherlock looked stunned like it had never occurred to him that someone might care right that's enough of that Sherlock would shoot him down in flames but he deserved to know that someone loved him Greg cleared his throat and reached over to take Sherlock's hand in his he still looked gobsmack and he didn't say a word "I have to tell you something Sherlock I get that you don't feel the same and this won't change our work relationship but you need to know... I need you to know that I love you I've been in love with you for years and I'm not going to chase you because I get that you don't see me that way but..." Lestrade found himself cut off by Sherlock leaning over and kissing him long and deep and hard and exactly as Greg had imagined Sherlock kissing him but by god this was real Sherlock pulled back just a tiny bit and breathed "I love you too, Greg" against Lestrade's lips before diving back in for a longer kiss and they didn't let go of each other until the door opened "YES MYCROFT you owe me 20 pounds they finally figured it out" John yelled and then promptly closed the door and left probably to chase down Mycroft Sherlock looked at Lestrade with a goofy grin on his face "should I be worried my roommate and brother are making bets about my love life" Greg laughed "yep be afraid be very afraid" Sherlock seemed to think about it "hmm dull I'd much rather spend my time kissing you" and with that he claimed Lestrade's mouth again.
