Holmes' perspective of Watson's forgiveness...(aw)
Forgiven
(Holmes)
He'd offended him, made him miss his tea with his family-to-be, put him in the midst of an uneven brawl, caused him to lose his engagement ring, nearly gotten him killed more than once in the space of five minutes, and had him thrown into a sweat-smelling jail yard overnight with no sleep while he snoozed warm and comfortable against him.
In a rehearsed attempt to say with his actions what his words never could, he'd tried to apologise by offering the only thing he could think of that Watson would appreciate - adventure. But it was to no apparent response, as Watson corrected his deliberate indication and then made no attempt to join him as he left.
In one last desperate attempt for forgiveness, he'd left it behind on the table where Watson would be sure to see.
Just when it all seemed in vain, the doctor suddenly appeared by his side halfway up the cobbled street, half-heartedly reprimanding him about once again forgetting his revolver. As bright blue eyes met darker ones, an echo of his own eagerness, he knew he was forgiven.
I know it wasn't quite as good as it probably could have been, but if you enjoyed it even a smidge, tell me in a review?? ;)
