"John. John!" Dr Jane comes rushing into the room, a beaming smile covering her face. "John, Mr Holmes is awake!" I jolt up, almost falling over. I don't need to follow her. I know where the ward is. I sprint down the corridors, only slowing down to turn. In a hurry, I bust open the doors. Sherlock looks at me.
"John." He looks slightly surprised to see me there, almost like he wasn't expecting me to come. Well, he did think I generally just did not care about him at all. I grin widely, feeling dizzy.
"Sherlock!" I run up to him and throw my arms around him. "Don't you ever leave my side again, got that?" He nods, even more surprised than before. I pull away and look at him. He still looks so perfect. His eyes are still that shiny bluey green colour, his cheekbones still sharp enough to cut yourself on if you touched them... oh god and his lips... I look away. Now's not the time John.
"Have you... Got a problem?" Sherlock asks, concerned. I look back at him, just able to shake my head. Fuck it, I can't resist. I lean down and touch his lips with mine, sending a shiver down my spine. His lips are so soft. I pull away.
"I-I'm so sorry, I-I-" He pulls the neck of my sweater and kisses me again, harder this time, better this time. I can feel myself turning red as he wraps his arms around my neck. He pushes me away onto the chair. I bite my lip, craving his. As if nervous he starts playing with his hands.
"You're a married man, John. I can't have you." I shake my head.
"Yes, yes you can. I'm going to divorce Delaney. You. You're the one I want. Not her not anyone else. You." I feel awkward saying it, but it's the truth. I've always wanted him, not just any other girl. And right now, I'd trade my soul to feel his soft, pink lips on mine again.
"Well, if you're going to kiss me, I'll commit suicide more often." I giggle.
"You don't have to do anything to get me to kiss you. After that..." Blood rushes into my cheeks. He laughs.
"To be honest, same here. John Hamish Watson, I love you." I smile, feeling slightly dizzy.
"I love you too."
