AN: This is in neither of their point of views, it's sort of third person for both of them. Mostly focused on John, though.
This continues off with the first book, so if you have not read that yet, PLEASE GO READ IT. This book will make NO SENSE to you, if you have not read the first one yet. I understand that in the last chapter of the first book I had said I would create chapter 1 by February 2nd or 3rd, but I wanted to post a prologue before hand. I will have a chapter 1 up by then, but this is what I wanted to leave you with so you could follow the book and favorite it.
John was starting to really fall in love with the consulting detective. Their feelings for each other grew stronger day by day. They cared so much for each other, even if Sherlock didn't understand how to show his feelings for him. John enjoyed every single moment he had with Sherlock, those were the great days. He was never bored, he always had something to do. Even watching Sherlock was sometimes entertaining, like when he would sit and yell at the tele, it was almost adorable. John loved having his consulting detective around, to hold him when he was upset or didn't feel well. Sometimes Sherlock wouldn't even hide the fact that he loved John, and he would end up being the most romantic person ever. Those were the best nights, Sherlock would make them dinner and after that they would cuddle on the couch, holding onto each other. Some nights they would end up sleeping on the couch together, even though they normally slept in Sherlock's bed. Just some nights they were too lazy to let go of each other, or they just didn't want to, so they would fall asleep on the couch. They didn't always have the most amazing times, they did argue, over stupid things though. Sherlock would get so caught up in a case and John always tried to take care of Sherlock, but he would get mad and they would argue over it. Sherlock almost completely got rid of smoking and needing nicotine patches, but that had returned after they went a few weeks without a case. Sherlock was starting to go a little bit insane, needing the nicotine. He almost forced John out of the flat to go buy him some and with regret, that's what John did. He went out and bought Sherlock his nicotine patches. That's what their relationship had consisted of, it was perfect and messed up in every way possible. But it was the greatest, whether they were being attacked by Magnussen or Moriarty or anyone, really.
Until one day, they were at dinner, and Sherlock told John he shouldn't be seen with him anymore, and that's when Sherlock had left John. He just left him there, helpless. John had gone back to the flat and never left. Crying for weeks, he had finally given in and got his gun, he was going to kill himself. That's the only solution he knew, if he couldn't have Sherlock, then no one could have John.
Goodbye, John Watson.
AN: Like I said in the beginning, chapter 1 will be up by February 2nd or 3rd, so please be patient, it's going to be a GIANT chapter. (Apologies for this prologue being so short, it's all I could think of without spoiling the rest of the book.) I hope everyone that followed the first book will follow this one as well! It's not over! There are many more adventures for Sherlock and John ahead! :)
