*AN: This is the happy Sherlolly chapter. YAY it has a happy ending.
[Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people]
Two lonely people. They walk the earth, always alone. Maybe one day they'll find each other...
[Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?]
Sherlock Holmes is a consulting detective, the only one in the world.
He was labeled a freak. A sociopath. He had no friends. He didn't need them.
No one really likes him except his land lady, the DI and the girl at the morgue, the rest call him a freak.
He acts like he doesn't care. Maybe he does.
[All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?]
Some people believe in soulmates. Your perfect match who looks will travel with you throughout eternity. So you're never alone.
Some say God has a plan and everything happens for a reason.
Still there are lonely people on the earth.
No soulmate.
No higher purpose.
No point.
[Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near
Look at him working, darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care?]
Molly Hooper works a cold and lonely job in morgue.
None of the staff at St. Bards really talk to her.
One person does talk to her, the Consulting Detective that stops by a lot.
He talks to her.
[All the lonely people

All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?]
James Moriarty, the consulting criminal, is out for Sherlock Holmes' blood. He has a plan, the Reichenbach Fall. To burn Sherlock's heart out.
Sherlock doesn't believe he has one.
[Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people]
Three snipers. Three bullets. Three targets.
The closest people to Sherlock will die.
DI Lestrade, Mrs. Hudson, and Molly Hooper.
Either Sherlock dies or they do.
[Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved]
Sherlock jumped. His body lay, cold and lifeless on the sidewalk.
His funeral was well attended by grateful clients, police officers, Molly, Mrs. Hudson, Lestrade, and Mycroft.
Molly unlocked the door to her flat after a long day at work. Covering tracks.
A tall dark detective was waiting for her inside. She smiled.
[All the lonely people (Ah, look at all the lonely people)
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people (Ah, look at all the lonely people)
Where do they all belong?]
What do you need?
You…
**AN: I'm new to this whole "Happy ending" thing. I guess that wasn't very romantic but I hope I did OK.
