Chapter Four
Sherlock and John sat in their little room in the TARDIS and talked.
"Sherlock, how did we get here? Seriously, how?" asked John.
"We waited for something, and something came from outer space," replied Sherlock. There were a few moments of silence, and then Sherlock spoke once more.
"What you said about letting go, I need to do that more. So, I need to tell you something," said Sherlock shakily.
"Spit it out then," prodded John. Sherlock hesitated and gathered his thoughts together. He needed to explain himself before he jeopardized the nature of their relationship.
"John, do you remember when I told you everything was fine," asked Sherlock.
"Yes, of course I do."
"Well, I just wanted to say that we're fine. We're good, we're a team."
"Yes, we are," replied John, "We're a great team," he said with a smile.
"Yeah, good, I'm glad you agree."
"Sherlock, I love you too. Just say it," John blurted out without thinking. Sherlock just stared at him in shock.
"I love you, John," he said shakily.
"Good, now was that so hard?" asked John with a slight laugh.
"Yes," replied Sherlock solemnly. They sat there in silence for a few moments while they both processed what had just happened. John stood and looked down on Sherlock.
He put out his hand and said, "Stand up." Sherlock took his hand and stood close to him, their noses nearly touching.
"John, you want to kiss me," deduced Sherlock.
"Yes I do," he replied. He pulled Sherlock's face closer to his and kissed him. He grasped Sherlock's collar and Sherlock draped his arms around John pulling him closer. The truth was out at long last…
Short chapter, I know. But this moment had to have it's own little chapter. :)
