Just a quick little one shot that randomly popped into my head about Holmes and Watson.
Based off the song Fix You- Coldplay
When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
I thought that by coming back to you everything would be alright. I thought that we would both have what we wanted. I guess I was wrong, I guess I was too late. I'm sitting here, it's late and I'm waiting for you. These memories won't stop flooding back to me. You smiling, you laughing, you thinking… you.
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
I'm crying, are you happy? Do you even care? Can you even care? You're all I have please wake up. It's been so long since I've seen your piercing eyes. Three weeks. I don't know how much longer I can take this. I love you, don't you realize that?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Why couldn't I have been just an hour earlier? I entered our rooms to find you in a heap on the carpet, sleeping but unable to wake. Damn the drugs Holmes! Damn you Holmes! You can't leave me, I won't leave you!
And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth
Where are you now Holmes? Can you hear me? Can you feel me? I'm here waiting for you. I'll always be waiting for you. I can't let you go.
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I
"I love you Sherlock…"
Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I
"Watson?"
Your voice is cracked, ragged, and low. But it's there, oh it's there. You're finally awake, you've finally come back to me. I lean down until our noses are just inches apart. Your eyes are still closed as your head rests on the hospital's pillow.
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And
"I will try to fix you." I whisper as I close the distance between us and our lips meet for the first time.
