Anorexia
"Are you fucking kidding me now, John Watson?" Sherlock heard Mary shouting. Sherlock furrowed his eyebrows and hesitated to enter the room. Maybe he should let them fight it out and then enter…
"Why are you yelling at me?" John asked meekly. Sometimes, he was extremely terrified of his girlfriend.
"Why I am… John Watson, you oblivious fool! You just told me that Sherlock hasn't eaten in two weeks, as if it is normal! I don't care if it is normal for him, Sherlock is your friend and you should have noticed the signs! He is clearly anorexic! You're a doctor, for fuck's sake!"
Mary's shouting may have extremely terrified her boyfriend, but it sent a warm feeling rushing through Sherlock's body.
"I am moving in. From now on, I am going to make sure that Sherlock eats, because you, my love, are an oblivious fool and this close to losing your best friend!"
Sherlock retreated from the door and left the building.
This was the first time in a long while that someone noticed his problems and cared enough for him to take action…
Unknowingly to him, it would not be the last time, as Mary took it upon her to baby him and help him through his issues. Because, as Mary said, sometimes all someone needs to fix themselves is someone who cares.
