Jim's p.o.v

I walk into the dark flat. I hope Sebby's okay. I hang my coat up before walking into the living room. I suspected Tiger was sleeping so I was surprised when I heard his voice.
"Hey babe. How you been?" His deep voice sent chills down my spine.
"Sebby?" I called into the darkness. He stood up from the chair and walked over pinning me against the wall.
"You said you'd be home by noon. It's ten thirty. I've missed you." His lips were against mine within seconds. He held my wrists above my head while his tong traced my lips. The urgency in the kiss was as plain as day. He had been worried. Even though I didn't want to, I broke the kiss to gaze into his eyes. There was a lot of tears.
"Oh Sebby! I'm so sorry!" I cried.
"Save it Jim. We'll talk in the morning. Tonight's just about you and me." I smiled and let Sebby lead me to the bedroom. It smelled like cigarettes.
"Sebby. You promised you'd quit!" He looked a bit ashamed.
"You were gone. What else was I supposed to do?" He had a point.
"I'm sorry. I can tell you want to talk about it." He turned to face me. There was anger in his eyes.
"HOW COULD YOU JIM? WHY WOULD YOU?"
"I'm alive. That's all that matters."
"NO JIM! THAT'S NOT ALL THAT MATTERS. YOU LET ME BELIEVE YOU WERE DEAD! WHY DID YOU DO THAT?! I LOVED YOU AND YOU HURT ME! WHY?!" He was furious.
"You still love me. I know that. Sher-"
"OH NOW THIS IS ABOUT SHERLOCK?! NEWS FLASH! NOT EVERYTHING IS ABOUT SHERLOCK! IF YOUR OBSESSION IS GOING TO KEEP US APART, THEN MAYBE WE SHOULDN'T BE TOGETHER!" What?! No! I'm not letting anything take my baby away. Being the manipulative person I am, I turned on the water works. I cried loud and convincing tears. I could see through fake tears that Sebby was starting to feel guilty.
"I'M SORRY TIGER! I NEVER MEANT TO HURT YOU. YOU'RE RIGHT I'M OBSESSED BUT YOU'RE THE ONLY THING THAT KEEPS ME SANE! I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT YOU! I PROMISE I'LL CHANGE!" My sobs became hysterical. Sebby wrapped me up tightly in his arms.
"Shh, Jim. It's okay. I love you and I'm not leaving you. Sherlock's dead now anyway. Please calm down. I know how important Sherlock was to you." Then Sebby started crying. We continued to cry and kiss for a while. After a couple hours the tears were all gone. That night Sebastian and I passionately made love until the sun rose. I was so happy to be back in his arms, and even happier that Sherlock was dead.
