Meet me for tea? -JW
Where and when? SH
Now, that little shop on the corner. -JW
Be there in 5. SH
John sat in the corner booth, waiting for his flat mate. His foot taped at a rapid speed. Sherlock entered the shop, immediately finding the doctor. "John," he said by way of greeting, taking a seat and removing his coat and scarf. "Something wrong?" he asked, noticing John's tapping.
"No.. No. I just wanted to.. Talk to you about something is all." John watched how the other man took off his scarf, noting his neck, now bare. His eyes flickered up to Sherlock, he mumbled something about getting tea and rushed up.
The doctor came back with two cups, "Sherlock.. Since you came back.." He started with sad eyes
"John," Sherlock said seriously, eyes filled with pain, "I thought we both agreed not to talk about that anymore."
He sat down, a hand rapped around the warm cup. "I'm worried about you.. And my self. I don't know," John rubbed his face, "it's so different now.. And.."
Sherlock's eyes narrowed, brows knitting together as he observed the doctor. "John? What's wrong?"
John wouldn't look at his bestfriend, "I don't know if I can go through with the wedding."
Sherlock's eyes widened. Not many things took him by surprise, but this did. "Why not? Are you alright, John?"
"When it was just Mary and I... I was sure I loved her, that she was the one. But now... I don't know." John looked up to meet Sherlocks eyes
"She's not cheating on you, if that's what you're worried about," Sherlock said, trying to deduce John's face. "She genuinely loves you."
"I know she does," John's voice cracked, "but I know I don't. I.. I love someone else."
"You...do?"
John looked down, taking a deep breath. "Yes."
"Look at me, John," the detective said, trying to catch the doctor's eye. "What's going on? You can trust me."
John looked up with wet eyes, "you."
Sherlock sat back, completely taken aback. He quickly did a once-over of John. Elevated pulse, dilated pupils, clammy hands and shaking...It was all there. He was the most observant man in the world and yet he had missed this. How could he have missed this? "You...what?" he asked
"Your the reason.. The reason I can't go throughout with my wedding. I'm in love with you, always have been. For a while after... After you left I pushed it away. But now.. I can't do that any more." John said with searching eyes.
"John are you sure?" Sherlock said, staring at John intensely. "You can't say this now and then take it back a few days from now. I need you to be completely, totally, and positively sure. This is your one chance to take it back. Take it, and we'll both act like it never happened and you'll get married in two months."
"No.. I'm sure. Please.. Please say you feel the same? I don't know what I would do if you didn't..."
"I... Can we finish this at the flat?" Sherlock said, standing up. The doctor's face dropped, but he followed.
Once back to the flat John walked up, more like sulked, up the stairs first. He unlocked the door slowly, dreading what he knew was going to happen. John shut the door behind Sherlock, and turned to face the other man. "Look, Sherlo-"
Sherlock moved to press John against the wall, cupping the shorter man's face in his thin hands. He gave him a long and drawn out kiss, nothing too heated. Just a sweet closed mouth kiss, he wanted to swim in this monument forever. "Obviously I feel the same."
