A\N: Hiii! I'm back, sorry for the absence. Was busy, but now every in my family except me had the dreaded virus! Lucky for me, sad , worrying, but also means I have a lot of free time!
Disclaimer: I sadly do not own Sherlock or any recognisable characters and plots from the BBC series... But I think Benedict Cumberbatch is a great Sherlock!
John and Sherlock were left alone one of Mycroft's many living rooms, after Mycroft had reluctantly left. After a long period of awkward silence, John said, "it seems like I am forever messing this up, doesn't it?" Then the dam broke, and he poured out, " I am so sorry Sherlock, and I owe you an explanation, that is, if you will listen? " At Sherlock's small nod, he went on. "After the Fall, I was... not in a good place. I met Mary at the clinic, and she managed to pull me out of my depression. I suppose I loved her, but when you came back, I knew that the love I felt for her could never measure to what I feel for you. Please Sherlock, you have to believe me. I was going to marry her, but I couldn't go through with it, it felt like a betrayal to you, which is when you found me. I never meant for you to find out like this, but with finding you, and everything that has happened in the past few days, I honestly forgot about her." Now he stopped, as Sherlock was looking confused.
"John, I didn't expect to stay single... I had no proof you returned my feelings and you thought me dead. I can even forgive you for forgetting, as I know that you must have been overwhelmed these past few days. But whatever possessed you to date an assassin, and one that worked for Moriarty, at that rate- Oh." He realised as John turned white and his mouth fell open, "You didn't know." " NO, I BLOODY WELL DIDN'T, KNOW. WHY THAT LYING, CHEATING, EVIL, MANIPU-" John stopped as he heard a pitiful whimper, and saw Sherlock, curled into a ball in the sofa. A if things couldn't get worse, Mycroft there open the door, and upon seeing sherlock, hissed, "What did you say?! Wait here!" John unable to move or look away, watched in horror as Sherlock got up and then fell to the floor writing around and screaming for help. He watched as Mycroft soothed him, bringing him out of the terrible memories, and breathed a sigh of relief as Sherlock opened his eyes. This time, as Sherlock still wanted to speak to John, Mycroft insisted on staying, and surprisingly, John made no objections.
"Sherlock, I am so sorry. I had no idea Mary had an connection to Moriarty, let alone that she was his assassin! I just ... Please come home Sherlock. I promise, I love you, not Mary, not anyone else!" John held his breath, waiting for Sherlock's answer...
A\N: Please, please, please review! Anyone got any ideas on what they want Sherlock to say? Or even Mycroft?
