Prompt: Mirror (Okay so for day 28, 29, and 30 I am doing a final 3 part story so I'm doing the mini prompts right now)
John walked upstairs to the flat holding groceries and the door was closed? He slowly pushed it open now acutely aware of his surroundings. He slowly walked into the flat. He got the feeling that someone had been there, but nothing was disturbed. Who would have been in his flat? ? He looked over and saw that Sherlocks door was closed. John always left Sherlock's door open. He dropped the groceries and slowly walked over to the door. Did close it? She never had before. John set his hand on the door handle and cautiously pushed the door open. "John." Sherlock said a bit surprised looking up from his book.
John stepped back and slammed the door. No, this wasn't real was it? He opened it again to see Sherlock standing up "John please listen. John stared at him shaking his head. He was going to wake up any second, thats what always happened, he would see Sherlock but before he could touch him he would wake up. "John this isn't a dream." Sherlock reassured. "Thats exactly what you always say Sherlock." Sherlock slowly reached out his hand putting it on John's shoulder. "Sherlock?" John gasped "No this can't, Sherlock you jumped, y-you died, right in front me."
" No John, it was all a trick, but please let me explain befo-"
"No Sherlock, no, you, god three years. Three years and you're alive?! Do you have any idea what you put me through?"
"John I had no Idea you would be so affected."
"No Idea I would be so affected. Sherlock how could you even think that?"
"I-I don't know I just assumed you didn't care that much"
"Even after that conversation we had just a few weeks before Sherlock? You know how much I cared. You knew and said you felt the same, so why. Ugh SHERLOCK WHY DID YOU LEAVE? DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG I THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE OF ME? SOMETHING I DID? MAYBE I COULD HAVE I DON'T KNOW CAUGHT YOU, SOMETHING."
John turned around walking into the living room. Sherlock following him out. John was angry, no he was furious. John turned looking into the mirror above the fireplace, seeing Sherlock who was behind him, reflection in it. He punch the mirror as hard as he could, glass flying everywhere. "John, jesus John are you okay" Sherlock yelled running up to him kneeling beside him.
"Yes , I'm oh god no I'm- Sherlock can you get me my first aid kit in the bathroom." John pleaded "Of course" he replied. "John here let me help you" Sherlock offered taking the bandage and tweezers out of the box" "No Sherlock it's fine I can do it" John argued. "No John, let me help you I've got it." he insisted carefully holding Johns hand.
"John let me explain."
"What is there to explain Sherlock?"
"Why I did it. John do you think I wanted to do this? Do you think I wished to put you through this? I never wanted this to happen but I had no choice."
"What are you talking about?"
"John, Moriarty gave me a choice he told me that if I didn't jump that he would kill you. I did this to protect you, I couldn't live with myself if you died John and it was my fault."
"Why did you wait why didn't you come back?"
"I couldn't come back until I took care of anyone that could possibly be a threat to us after I came back John I swear I came back the day I killed Moriarty's right hand man. John i'm back and i'm not leaving again okay?"
"Sherlock I'm. I'm still incredibly pissed off at you, but thank you."
Sherlock finished picking all the glass out of his hand and was wrapping it up in gauze.
Sherlock weakly smiled at John finishing up on his arm. "John I am sorry, I am so sorry I put you through this, I will never be able to apologize enough. I love you John, and I would like to come back, if you. If you'll have me that is." John laughed looking down and shaking his head. "Does that question even need asking Sherlock? Of course you can come back, and I. I uhm I love you too."
