Why was he so nervous? This had never happened before. Sherlock stood with his bottom lip between his teeth. Sherlock chased criminals, got shot at and hurt in his line of work so why now was he nervous. Had he been this nervous when he was staring down the barrel of the gun in his first case?
John walked towards him with a smile of his face and Sherlock knew there was a goofy smile on his own.
Of all days and all the things they could be doing.
John came to stand in front of Sherlock. The look in his face.
Sherlock didn't like feeling nervous it was beginning to make him feel a bit sick. He should be happy for the day. John was here and that was all that matter.
The man talking turned to John and John started to speak.
"Sherlock the day I met you I never thought I'd be chasing you around London trying to solve cases or coming home to weird experiments in our kitchen. But when I finally stopped fighting with my emotions and myself for you everything made sense. I promise to chase down criminals until we no longer can. By saying this I am making a sure promise to love you forever as cliché as it sounds." John smiled.
Sherlock licked his lips before speaking.
"John I never thought myself capable of love and so I pushed it away at every chance and-an," Sherlock fell over backwards in a dead faint. John leaned over his lover and took Sherlock's face in his hands. "Sherlock come on." Someone called out to get the paramedics.
John called over his shoulder that Sherlock was coming round a few moments later. "I guess I was more nervous then I thought." Sherlock chuckled. Sherlock tried to sit up. "No stay there for a bit longer we can continue right here." John told him and gave the priest a nod.
"Sherlock your vows." The priest said.
Sherlock recited his vows to John.
"The rings gentlemen."
Lestrade handed Sherlock the ring. Sherlock turned it over in his hand. "With this ring I pledge my loyalty to John Hamish Watson." Sherlock slipped the ring on John's finger.
"With this ring I pledge my loyalty to Sherlock Argus Holmes." Harry handed the ring to her brother. She was acting as best-woman John placed the ring on Sherlock's finger.
"You may kiss your partner." The priest told them. They shared a quick kiss before John helped Sherlock off the floor. Everyone clapped for them. They slipped into the reception room across the hall of Holmes Manor into the impressively large dinning room. John sat Sherlock in a chair for a bit.
Across the room Mrs. Holmes smiled. John brought out the best in Sherlock. She smiled as Sherlock and John shared a kiss before getting up to dance the first dance as a couple. Sherlock would be just fine as long as John was with him. She had never seen him happier never seen him smile so much. He wasn't as thin as he was and he even had a bit of color in his cheeks.
"You know next time you feel the need to pass out let me know so I can catch you." John said.
"You'll be coming down with me then." Sherlock grinned.
"Then if we fall we'll do it together." John kissed the man before pulling him closer for a kiss.
"Falling might not be so bad then I can face anything as long as you're by my side." Sherlock told him.
"We made it this far." John told him.
A/N: i'm sorry this sucks and it doesn't make sense. but love never makes sense and it takes two peeople to understand each other ina relationship.
