I know I said the end, but you guys are awesome so you deserve an epilogue. Enjoy :)

John and Sherlock sat hand in hand at the kitchen table. "I heard the good news Sherlock; you're a very brave person to have gone through all that in your short life," Mrs Watson smiled.
"Good result, isn't it 'Lock?" John grinned. He had been there for his boyfriend and was proud of him.
"Yeah. Mr Moriarty and Mr Holmes won't be bothering me anymore," Sherlock was happy.
"At least Jim didn't throw you down a flight of marble stairs… I was terrified hearing about it!" John added.
Sherlock scratched the cast around his arm. "Yeah, it actually caught me off guard. I did manage to tell the officers about what happened to mother; so at least he won't be out for a very long time…"
"When are the trials?" Mrs Watson asked.
"Mr Moriarty's is in a week's time and Mr Holmes' is in a fortnight."
"I'll be there, 'Lock. Don't want you going through it alone."
"We'll both be there, Sherlock. It's unfair for someone as sweet and polite as you to go through things like that at your age…" Mrs Watson added, "I may even be going to my seat and trip over… accidently hitting him in the head!"
John and Sherlock giggled, "That would be amazing, mum!" John smiled.
"Do you want to go into town? I fancy going to that café…" Sherlock asked.
"Sure!" John smiled as he kissed his boyfriend.
They walked out of the door, hand in hand as Mrs Watson smiled. She knew that they were both happy.
